Skills Tutorial /6
A melee attack that causes lightning to strike a targeted location or nearby enemy, dealing area of effect damage. Smite also grants an aura on hit which provides additional lightning damage to you and your allies for a short duration.
MirageStrike
Ancestral Call Support
Allows Smite to target two additional nearby enemies. As Smite is an area of effect attack, this support can result in areas where damage overlaps, greatly increasing damage.
IncreasedPhysicalDamage
Melee Physical Damage Support
Grants more melee physical damage for Smite. Because 50% of physical damage is converted to lightning damage, this support will also increase the lightning damage done by Smite.
PhysicalToLightning
Physical to Lightning Support
Converts 50% of Smite's physical damage to lightning damage, as well as providing extra lightning damage based on your physical damage. Because 50% of physical damage is already converted to lightning from the skill gem this causes all physical damage with Smite to deal lightning damage instead.
WeaponElementalDamage
Elemental Damage with Attacks Support
Multiplies the elemental damage done by Smite. Converting all physical damage from Smite to elemental damage maximizes the benefit this support provides.
multipleattacks
Multistrike Support
Causes Smite to repeat an additional two times, as well as providing a large bonus to attack speed.
ElementalFocus
Elemental Focus Support
Removes the ability for Smite to inflict elemental ailments, such as shock, on enemies. However, it significantly boosts the amount of elemental damage Smite does. Converting all physical damage from Smite to elemental damage maximizes the benefit this support provides.

    Edit

    Smite

    Smite is a melee Attack skill where the user strikes an enemy or location. Every hit creates a circle as secondary effect that damages all enemies inside its area with damage (not only lightning damage but all sorts of damage) and grants a temporary aura that grants added lightning damage and shock chance.

    Skill functions and interactions

    • The lightning damage area of effect caused by this skill does not count as a melee hit for purposes of effects like Fortify.
    • Ancestral Call Support causes this skill to create multiple AoEs if there are multiple enemies in range.
    • Hits while using Ancestral Call Support or any other form of Strike Skills target an additional nearby Enemy allow for both the melee hit portion of the skill to hit as well as the area damage to hit, area damage dealing 30-20% less damage effectively dealing 170%-180% damage if positioned correctly.
