lol hey guys

Some of you may remember me (Pheyd) but my email account as well as my wow account were hacked and lost everything and can no longer recover it.

So i've decided to come back to d2.

I have my fury rabies druid Gnawbert lvl 90 (Useast), got all of his gear but i need some advice seeing as i am incredibly rusty with duelling.

My main problem i have is with smiters, i just can't seem to kill them consistantly, so any advice on how i do that?

Cheers, Phade

Smiters are hard in general..
if they have over 40k def you are screwed..
You need a ****load of AR to be able to hit them at all..
All the life in the world won't save u if they stun and smite you..
However if you manage to get in 1-2 hits with rabies.. and use the switch trick you can severely hurt them..
I don't really know how to give advice on this.. I lose most my smiter duels with rabies druid.. if smiter knows what he's doing

I would have to say a range 5 weapon GPA/Giant Thresh made into EBotD works wonders vs smiters with a COA on for the dr you would lose with out SS. Ofcourse mass AR as well.

Some of my wolven bros are pretty desc, I've seen Grief/Fort/SS work really well. Just tank the crap outta them and land 2 hits, its over. 2-frame FHR your like a rubberband. Maybe ebotd if you think you need a lil more range
2-hander seems kinda risky. Most smiters will walk with max block, you'd be lucky to land a hit.. also, if you get charged locked you might be screwed.
