Im using a 55 Mo/Me Build, it farms Aatxe quite nicely (albeit slow) and can handle Darknesses as well, But when it comes to smites the damage output is to small and although i can last forever, i kill nothing.

So i was wondering if i should modify my build for more damage, or if there is a different route i can go with just Aatxe? Which would be much more efficient, seeing as i know this build works well on them. Im assuming if there is an Aatxe route, it will also have Dying Nightmares.

Ill post my build, make any suggestions or comments on it as well as feel free to answer my question

I was wondering if someone could link me to a Smite farming guide? that would include a certain path to take? (Im having trouble finding smites and dodging coldfires, who for me, never seem to give up there chase!)

I can get there and farm a few...but it seems after i kill a couple packs (~12 smite crawlers) there is none left and only Coldfires. I was also wondering if i could/should farm these guys with my current build (OP with Arcane Echo->Sympathetic Visage)

If you've reached the smites, you know the route - they only hang in that one area. I doubt if you'll be able to kill Coldfires with that build, however - in the first place, Coldfires cast spells too often (and heal with aura of restoration) rather than meleeing into SoJ.

However, the Coldfires follow very fixed routes. Watch for a few minutes and you'll see the route to take - then you can easily avoid them to pick off all the smite groups.

try adding blesed signet and blessed aura were the 2 mes skills are
and if u wanted u could go mo/d and run mystic regen insted of mending and hb

Also the main problem with this is that night mares rip enchants off u so if u solo thats game over
Best to duo be a 55 or 600 with spell breaker
Also might want to add attribute points to help us look at it more better

You want it like this.

[skill]Protective Spirit[/skill][skill]Healing Breeze[/skill][skill]Blessed Signet[/skill][skill]Spell Breaker[/skill][skill]Mantra of Resolve[/skill][skill]Blessed Aura[/skill][skill]Mending[/skill][skill]Balthazar's Spirit[/skill]

Go down there with Necro or Nesmer to throw on [skill]Sympathetic Visage[/skill]

Other than using[skill]Mantra of Resolve[/skill] you could use[skill]Bonetti's Defense[/skill]

The whole point to this thread was whether or not there was a skill i was missing to kill smites, the second poster gave me the idea of a visage, and it worked rather nicely.

I dont know why your suggesting i should change my build to become a tank and go duo...I am well aware of the build for a 2 man UW Team, but this is about solo'n not a team.

Also about the nightmares, You can easily pop them out kill them, prot spirit and hide or tank while u redo your enchants, its not difficult at all. With some smart planning you will easily have enough mana for all this.

I thought you might go do the smites close to the coldfires and would want to prevent malestrom from interrupting you.
