This build has been designed for the following use:

Abuse newly buffed Aura of the Lich and Ray of Judgment for some smiting love. Highly effective in areas with enemies vulnerable to Holy Damage.

You

Anything, best if Monk with some kind of Ray of Judgment build. This will work fine:

<pvxbig> [build prof=Mo/E smi=12+1+1 pro=9+1 div=9+1][Smite Hex][Ray of Judgment][Castigation Signet][Reversal of Damage][Protective Spirit][Aegis][Glyph of Lesser Energy][Rebirth][/build] </pvxbig>

Equipment

  • Survivor set.
  • 40/40 Smiting set or Smiting Staff of Enchantment.

Usage

  • Place RoJ where it will damage a lot of enemies.
  • Pre-prot your melee with Prot Spirit, counter bosses with it.
  • Use Aegis when there is a lot of physical damage.
  • Once enemies are around your tank, Glyph of Lesser Energy + Balthazar's Aura. You might also follow up with RoD.
  • Manage energy with Castigation Signet.

Variants

  • Change Smite Hex, Glyph of Lesser Energy or Rebirth for a PvE skill of your choice. Pain Inverter, Ebon Standard of Honor, Ebon Vanguard Assassin Support are all good choices of increasing your damage. Change Glyph of Lesser Energy to Glyph of Swiftness and remove some points from Divine Favor to get 4 wind magic.

Booned Smite Monk

<pvxbig> [build prof=Mo/E smi=12+1+1 div=12+1 hea=3+1][Castigation Signet][Ray of Judgment][Reversal of Damage][Smite Condition][Glyph of Lesser Energy][Divine Healing][Smiter's Boon][Resurrection Chant][/build] </pvxbig>

Equipment

  • Survivor insignias.
  • 40/40 Smiting or Divine set.

Usage

  • Set hero to Defensive and let him do the job.

Delighted Anti-Hexer

<pvxbig> [build prof=Mo/E smi=12+1 div=12+1+1 hea=3+1][Castigation Signet][Ray of Judgment][Reversal of Damage][Deny Hexes][Glyph of Lesser Energy][Divine Healing][Heaven's Delight][Resurrection Chant][/build] </pvxbig>

Equipment

  • Survivor Insignias.
  • 40/40 Smiting or Divine set.

Usage

  • Set hero to Defensive and let him do the job.

Dwayna's Lich

<pvxbig> [build prof=N/Mo death=11+1+1 sou=10+1 hea=10][Aura of the Lich][Animate Bone Minions][Putrid Bile][Death Nova][Dwayna's Sorrow][Signet of Lost Souls][Healing Seed][Healing Ribbon][/build] </pvxbig>

Equipment

  • Standard MM equipment, but you don't need Bloodstained Insignias as your hero's main tool of Minion Animating is AotL, which doesn't gain benefits from Bloodstained.

Usage

  • Set to defensive.

Variants

  • Change Healing Ribbon for Blood of the Master.
  • Change Putrid Bile for Rising Bile if you expect to fight loads of bigger foes.

The Rest

  • Fill in with at least 1 melee (hench or a human). The best would be an Earthshaker Warrior or a Dervish. You can either add more monks for more protection or an elementalist or two for more damage. Be careful, however, as Ray of Judgment doesn't cause scatter, but most of the Elementalist Henchmen spells do. Pick your team wisely. Alternatively, get one more of Smite Monk or Anti-Hexer. In corpse-heavy areas, you may use two Minion Masters.
