Pretty much anything can do NM UW. People are not really intested in another "kill-squids-run-kill-smites" unless it is faster than existing ones and rt/w with spinter/cyclone is still fastest out there...

The build is good, but it has a major downside to it.
Since rending aura does not remove energy, only enchants, you WILL hit someone that hasnt removed the enchantment yet. They are pretty good at covering with RoF, you see. Ive died several times from this, due to the fact that in a group of lets say more than five smities, two of them will at one time or another have SoJ up at the same time. Thats 100 damage and eventual knockdown. If you have 10, you are very likely to be spiked down to almost zero hp in one unlucky cyclone.

Have you seen how fast smites attack? Trust me, their enchants go down fast.

Also, I seriously prefer the previous build posted by max_rulez due to Victorious Sweep, as it nearly always fills your hp bar back up to maximum. Spam that on the smites, and you will have no problem at all.

Solution to your problem is avoid groups larger than 5....and keep Doylak on. With some practise you can also notice the 'animation' for SoJ and learn how to avoid it

And nice work on the build , OP.

Yeah, I was thinking about combining it with something though. With that and a 33%, you may be able to *just* run away.

Edit: Or, pull grasps with a longbow, and hit that immediately.

Nice idea, availiable to all classes? I hate the fact that Dash is /A, not sure how I would handle smites, unless I went A/Me, or something.

Guess E/A or A/E shadowform nuker.

Tried it already, I'm able to kill graspings in HM with 1 nuke (before SF ends), and to flee from the aatxes (they give up). Only problem was that my ele his dwarfen rank isn't very high so I have only 1 sec more of dash . Going to try it again some time.

I do not doubt that this build is possible to run well, the only problem here is that you have 3 choises, very briefly, on a warrior for farming uw. Its khanhei, this W/D build and the W/Me build. Thing is, when you, with the W/D build only can take on 5 smities at the same time, but while using the axe version of the W/Me build can take on as many smiters as you can lure at the same time, the choise seems pretty clear to me. But this is indeed a good alternate

Are you crazy this build can handle as many as you can pull too. The other day when i was running dry on luck i happened to run by a unusually mob of smites (about for groups), took them all down with health to spare. I admit i was on my ends hoping i wont die, but i got 2 ectos
