Hey ive been thinking about this idea, didnt get chance to test, as im survivor
Build uses
Whirling defense
Oath shot
Volley
(Splinter weapon?)
(Healing)
(speed buff)
you can maintain WD using WD- oath shot right after -WD -oath shot etc...
might be used in UW as smite run for ranger.

dont see how u can kill the smite, not enuf spike damage wiith volley + splinter, by the time u damage then , theyll activate soj and start rof them selves

Don't see how this would get past the graspings. Even if you managed to, you wouldn't have enough damage to kill the smites because of RoF and SoJ would most likely kill you.

Maybe add ancestors rage? spirit rift?
and does RoF work on splinter weapon's dmg? otherwise taking real low marksmanship would help whit that.

Well, I remember that farm in Witman's Folly, where you would kill them with Whirling Defense and Oath Shot.
Ofcourse, this would work on ranged characters only.

yeah its supposed to help the ranger class whit farming..

I suggest taking /Me as second and working around that. Stick SV/AV up, along with Physical Resistance, and chuck in a bit of barraging, and you might be onto something

Personally, I dont think your build will survive for long in UW...Smites will kill you, if you even get there. WD cannot be maintained constantly, so Grasps will interrupt you, most likely daze as well.

Keep thinking though

ops doesnt even think of what he will encounter in uw for smite run and just lists bunch of skills with no explanation how it will work, so i think people need to think before they post random shit

even looking at your 'combo':

[skill]Whirling Defense[/skill]+[skill]Oath Shot[/skill]

you can change this to:
[skill]Escape[/skill]+[skill]Natural Stride[/skill]

Considering that escape now has got the same recharge/duration as NS ..

then you also included a way to run past the aatxes =)

but overally I think this build 'isn't that great', if you can survive the graspings (monk healing probablY) then you will have got trouble with the smites, since you can't rend their SoJ
