Subject description: Easy to build, effective to use
 

Here's a build that I made last ladder - the only thing that could really kill it was a recasting Necro.

Skills
18 Points Prayer
1 Point Cleansing
1 Point Smite
1 Point Charge
Rest of points into Might

Gear
Either a 3 socket Mask with 45+ Max Damage or a 2 Socket Preserver's Circlet with 30+ Max
Twitch with 15+ Max Damage Jewel
Cow King Boots
Angelic Jewelry
Death's Combo

Weapon Switch 1
Crushflange + Swordback Hold / Skilled aura is Cleansing

Weapon Switch 2
ED / Max Pally shield with Max / AR jewels + 10+ IAS TSpears or Eth / Rep War Javelins
Switch between Might and Cleansing as your life dictates

Charms
I use a 6 max / 12 FHR charm, a 6 max / 5 dex charm (to glitch my throwspears), a 6 max / 7 r/w charm, and a couple 6 max / life GC's.

The rest of my charms are either 15 lifers with AR or mana.

Basically, this character replenishes life at a nasty rate. With Smite, you can CB your opponent's life to about half in a few seconds, then switch between throwing and charging for the kill. Throw javelins at your opponent until they start running at you, then switch to charge (still with your javelins) and hit them a few times.

One of the most dominant level 18 builds, and most of the gear is pretty common.

Seems interesting.

So with cleansing active it acts as prayer and cleansing combined?
Can it keep up with say Zealer or might smiter/charger ?

cleansing gets the same amount of healing as your level in prayer (including +skills), and it doesnt have a mana cost like prayer does. i still think its silly that prayer has a mana cost

Sure it can. It's usually better than both.

Definitely some options there. 3 PRuby would be useful if you want to buff your life, but your damage with throwing will be minimal. If you go PRubies, you might just want to focus on making a pure rep smiter.

PSkulls aren't really effective in melee duels, and if you use them, your damage won't be strong enough on your ranged side for you to use it.

Duskdeep is good to keep on hand for other smiters, if you've got enough strength to use it.

If i keep the x3 maxer helm. Would it be better if i put a Ith in my twitch and swordback than to put maxers? 30DTM seems like it would help quite a bit.

Angelics should provide enough Damage to Mana, but if you think you need more, I'd recommend Dun Jewels of Carnage - ideally 12 Dtm / 15 Max Damage.

Someone is running one of these on East Lad atm. It's not very good imo. There were a lot of these on west lad last season only lvl 16. Started from Puddle to Yafimovich to Happy_Engine. The throw and stuff isnt really necessary lol. The smite works fine. I beat one with a lvl 12 defadin so I'm not sure what to think. Still, though, the uber aggressive life replenish has its perks ^^

Yes, I know the person who followed the guide on East L. He says he hasn't lost in a ft5, but perhaps he'll explain his experiences with the build himself.

I built this char before I saw any other Cleansing Smiters, but it boggles my mind that someone would make a pure smiter without any sort of secondary skill. You won't beat any chars with a Duskdeep / Safety Ring / Cathan's Rings.

I have one and there's another guy with one (I'm not sure if it's that Rob_G guy who posted above us) but I have yet to lose a ft5, they either lose or they just get fed up and leave.

And I'm still missing charms, need a new helm and new tspears.


One thing I do suggest though - if you are on a low budget but feel that you need more mana, just throw in a mana GC. The extra few Charges work wonders.
I use Charge to get myself out of bad situations, it helps alot.

Mine is looking alright now that i got some charms and stuff. i have about 1150 life with mask and a little lower with maxer helm. (much better than he was doing a week or so ago)

Gear on him now (because of no good Tspears yet)

3Pruby mask
pruby 60def twitch
crush
51def swordback
41def ck
Deaths

In stash/on switch i have (for charge/shits and giggles) what is underlined equiped on switch always.

45max crown
15/dtm 60def twitch
15/41 clegs
60max 59ed 121ar 12enhancedDef aerin
Some random javs (never use em)


Basically now he is just a regensmiter.
On charge with cleansing im hitting a little over 600 damage with 1600ar

Normal rushed, with bird quest to do.

I'm really happy with how he turned out because it was done on a "budget" (yea right). I got most of his gear in public games for pgems. Most of the jewels and charms i got fairly cheap as well. 15maxers for 4fg, 15lifers for 4fg, 14max/41ar for 7fg.

Don't use 20 ed / 15 max jewels because you will get the ed/max bug. You will get more damage from 15 maxers, but if you have a spare 20 ed jewel, that would work well in your Twitchthroe. But I think you should have enough enhanced damage coming from your shield and your Might aura so that 15 maxers would work better.
