Thumbs up Which Smiting Elite?

Which smiting elite would you run, if you ran this bar?

http://pvx.wikia.com/wiki/Special:Pv...me=&Go=Indsend

Is RoJ rly the only good option QQ? - Ive been thinking about taking Echo, for more spamming?

Tbh, there are no real useful Smiting elites outside of ROJ, even for your build. If you wanted to dip into a non attribute elite that is also an option.

They all suck.

Empathetic Removal or Signet of Removal make good support options.

I suppose UA would be an option given you're already dumping half your points in DF and have Smiter's Boon. That said, I wouldn't run that variant (or an elite other than RoJ on a dedicated Smite bar, but this is mostly from a Warrior point of view).

I enjoy running Empathic Removal on my smite support builds. It's great for keeping allies clean in tandem with smite condition/hex.

I've just posted a build that I use quite a lot in VQ / missions.

http://pvx.wikia.com/wiki/Echo_RoJ_Smiter

RoJ is pretty awesome, especially when echoed, and paired with snares. Finish Him! is also good to get the job done and move to another target.

Being RoJ an Aoe spell, mobs tend to scatter in HM. I use signet of judgement + mantra of iscription + other signets. Triptofan Signet can be another nice pve skill very useful.

The only reason I'd run a smite bar is for SoH, and I have heroes to do that. RoJ works well there because it's AI proof.

Its like blood necro. Any elite in the game that either you don't have to spec hugely into or is no attribute (aside from the attributes you've already specced of course IE smite/DF). Smiter isn't really effective anyway unless you're keeping your warriors clean of faint/ip/weakness+big damage on whatever they're hitting (In 8v8 pvp during a hex meta). Just play whatever you think is most fun imo. Heros win pve for you.

You should consider adding in SoH. It's one of the best smiting skills around. I would also look more into divine elites such as UA - I find the choices of elite better and frankly more useful.
