Smiter Hero builds for MM?

So I been looking around, and I became interested in the Smiting Prayer's Attribute line as a hybrid damage dealer + party healer or prot to the Rit/N Minion Bomber who typically takes along a Necro-main Hero with Fiends. I'm looking for suggestions on Hero builds. This is for general PVE. For the purposes of this thread, I will refer to both kinds of Minion Managers as MMs. Both MMs typically run heavy on the enchantments, mainly minion-based, but the Rit has 3 main board enchantments always on. For additional reference, my Rit/N thread: http://www.guildwarsguru.com/forum/s....php?t=3039479

imho, the only viable smite build (aside from farming and all) is boonsmite (but I'm a boonsmite fanboy lol)

I don't know how that will translate to your minion bombing, but heroes don't seem to have a problem with it.

Here's a first-draft bar, no runes or insignia yet. Basically, between the MB, Fiends MM, and the Barbs-spamming Curses Necro, this build will be dropping spells on the minions and party. I might drop Contemplation... Any suggestions?

PS: Boonsmite has no E-management... I'd rather take Offering of Blood and some health-steal, keep that armor-ignoring theme going.

Slots 4,5, and 8 are, essentially, optional. Fill it in with [Protective Spirit], party heals, a rez, etc. It's core is very strong. Whatever you bring will only make it more flexible.

With the two boons you get a 138 point heal with 13 DF (147 with 14 DF) in RoD, a 1/4 second cast with a 3 sec recharge.

Smite hex/condition are ward-range, armor ignoring, AoE damage, utilizing your frontliners and minions.

For PvE, [Defender's Zeal] and [Glyph of Renewal]/[Divine Spirit] are good alternatives for [Boon Signet], but a very beautiful thing about it is that the Elite skill does not dictate the rest of the bar.

[Defender's Zeal] and [Boon Signet] are good for energy management. You might have to hotkey those skills, but it's not tedious, really. Offering of Blood requires speccing into Blood Magic, which isn't too beneficial when you have DZ.

[divine boon][smiter's boon][smite condition][reversal of damage][smite hex][defender's zeal][judge's intervention][castigation signet]

Replace judge's with divine intervention, it's personnal preference.
I don't like how heroes use Boon sig but some use it and it seems to work OK.
