RA In your face signet smiter

Monk/Dervish

I use the ugly but effective totem axe and a protection off hand

Going off of memory (Not at Home) the point spread was

Smite 15
Protection 9
Earth prayers 8
Devine for balance

[skill]signet of judgment[/skill] [skill]holy strike[/skill] [skill]signet of mystic wrath[/skill] [skill]signet of rage[/skill][skill]protective spirit[/skill] [skill]mystic regeneration[/skill] [skill]retribution[/skill] [skill]resurrection signet[/skill]

Or if you have survivability problems try

[skill]signet of judgment[/skill] [skill]signet of mystic wrath[/skill] [skill]signet of rage[/skill] [skill]aura of thorns[/skill] [skill]protective spirit[/skill] [skill]mystic regeneration[/skill] [skill]retribution[/skill] [skill]resurrection signet[/skill]

Enchantment Removal = Death (Shattering Assault will smack you Silly)

But if it is only a single strip at a time you should be able to maintain and

I only used this in RA but it should work in PVE as well.

Thoughts comments?

..Where on earth is your damage? Are you hiding it in your sleeve or something?

What are you doing when your 20 sec signets recharge? Go into touch range with holy strike?
Wand Spike? o_O

good job with re-creating an old build, but at that, making it worse!!!

[Morkai] · Jan 25, 2008, 05:10 PM // 17:10

Yeah this kinda fails...any Smiter should take Mantra of Inscriptions...but then again who smites apart from A/Mo's.. :/

Wrong section to post sorry move if you like

Where is the damage? 100 off of sig of mystic wrath 75 or so from sig of judgment then touch for 110 more then if you foe is a warrior you can get 100 -120 or so from rage. All the time they are hitting you and taking damage 20 a hit not much but it adds up. Granted Rage sucks unless it is a warrior.

This is not a wander this is an attack toe to toe which puts you in range for the touch

Tab · Jan 25, 2008, 05:39 PM // 17:39

At best you can do under 400 damage every 20 seconds.

Burst Cancel · Jan 25, 2008, 05:51 PM // 17:51

This is plainly flamebait. Request /lock.

Wyat Hawke · Jan 25, 2008, 06:01 PM // 18:01

Alright then, let's do the maths...

If we assume everything is perfectly set up, that you are fighting a warrior with only adrenaline attacks (no rez sig, lol), then you are up for damage in the 400 area (417 if the skill icons ain't cheating me). You can do this every 20 seconds.

The entire combo takes 9 seconds to cycle through, and 2 of your signets take 2 seconds to cast.

Since you can only use the full combo every 20 seconds, your average DPS equals 20. I can understand if you are trying to spike, but c'mon, how many "spikes" last for NINE seconds? And if you try to kill someone over 400 health, you fail and have to wait for holy strike to recharge, dealing a grand total of 58 damage every 8 seconds.

No ty, I will use my mending whammo to outpump your damage..

::EDIT:::
Ofc, if you are up against a basic spellcaster, you don't even deal 400 dmg, you deal 337 damage and you are forced into running UP to your target trying to dodge all the melee which will pounce at you since you are a monk. And what good is Retribution when you still take 60% of the damage? You die in the long run then anyway.

LOL WUT?

Signet Smiters Suck.

This build sucks worse.

and whats sadly better is a smiting monk with daggers

DRGN · Jan 25, 2008, 06:17 PM // 18:17

This is so bad it makes me want to post a cat picture, and that's saying something, since I normally despise people who do that. >_>

So basically, you're a monk who charges head-first and requires touch range, and you don't expect to get snared/interrupted?

"As well" implies it already works in PvP. But it doesn't.

Campfire is meant to be mostly a place with a lot of bad or suboptimal builds made by mediocre to bad players

If not, 99% of threads/posts here would be locked/deleted.

Wyat Hawke · Jan 25, 2008, 07:16 PM // 19:16

The Campfire would be a lonely place if the mods actually followed the forum guidelines...

Stormlord Alex · Jan 25, 2008, 07:20 PM // 19:20

A valiant effort...

But 400 damage once every 20 secs is bad.
That 400 damage spread out over a 9 second 'spike' with no DW or any real kind of utility is even worse.

You still take 100% of the damage.
