    Thanks so much for posting these. I think I read that smite's effectiveness is based on # of paladin spells known. Are you a heavily spelled paladin with more than 50 ranks in the Paladin circle? Also are the Ithzir's like level to you?

    Also I'm curious when do you decide that the time is right to use smite vs your normal method of attack? Are you 1x HP and do you find yourself having an over abundance of mana to burn?

    Vishra has 75 Paladin spell ranks and is fully 1x in spiritual mana control (which I highly recommend getting to at some point- having 50 energy for the spell makes it very useful)

    As far as when I use Smite- honestly, I don't that often. Part of that is because Vish only has about 28 ranks of Religion lore- so I rarely get the double smite effect (though I've seen it, and it's amazing). Part of that is that the creatures I'm most concerned about- Seers and Champions- don't stun. When I use it, it's mostly just something I'm using to use. Though I will occasionally use it when I don't feel like going through the disarm/feint/amb routine for a Seer.

    If Smite put targets in RT, I would use it a LOT more often as, at cap, RT is your best bet to prevent a dispel or a focused implosion. (I'm pretty sure it doesn't do that already)

    But I would feel greedy making that request as smite is extremely powerful. Nine times out of ten, if it hits the head, neck, or eyes it's an instant crit. Though if it hits legs or torso, you still run the risk of getting dispelled/FI'd right back.

    Oh man. 1x in SMC? Was that something you maintained while going to cap? or a post-cap goal? Do you have just a crazy abundance of mana around for your hunts or are you needing to manage it tightly to work in 1650?

    I picked it up specifically for 1650. Though honestly I'm finding it really useful. The 4 Mana spellups a day really help when dealing with dispel in OTF. And I don't run out of Mana very often these days- despite heavy spell casting
