This Smiting Monk is meant to be a Prophecies-only variant of the common Air of Enchantment Smiter. Using the combination of Glyph of Renewal and Divine Spirit, this build can achieve the same effect without limits to enchantments or a single ally, while also gaining the ability of on-the-go target switching due to removed restrictions from the combination of the forementioned skills.

Reversal of Fortune

Guardian

Draw Conditions

Smite Hex

Resurrection Signet

Zealot's Fire

Glyph of Renewal

Divine Spirit

[edit] Equipment

• A +5 energy sword or axe of Enchanting and a 20% recharge/+30 hp smiting off-hand is ideal.
• A weapon of Enchanting is necessary in order to keep up Divine Spirit consistently.

[edit] Usage

• Before combat, use Glyph of Renewal and Divine Spirit, followed by Zealot's Fire (remember to cover Zealot's Fire).
• Quickly spam Reversal of Fortune, Mend Condition, and Draw Conditions to trigger Zealot's Fire.
• Keep Divine Spirit up on yourself. It will last long enough to reduce its own cost (16.8 seconds).
• Alternate who you smite on to confuse kiters.

[edit] Counters

• Snare and kite the target being smited off of.
• Use any anti-spammer strategy such as Backfire, Blackout or Diversion
• Use an enchantment removal skill to remove the monk's Divine Spirit or Zealot's Fire
• Energy Denial that puts the monk below 10-15 energy, preventing their recycle of enchant's
• Interruption of Glyph of Renewal

[edit] Variants

• Replace Smite Hex with Balthazar's Aura for more energy intensive damage.
• If using in Alliance Battles then you can take out Resurrection Signet for another skill.
