Required Level: 1
Prerequisites: None
Requires: A shield equipped.
Synergies: None.
Details: Smite is a shield bash that damages, stuns, and knocks back the target.

• The speed of smite is based on the equipped weapon.
• Smite causes durability loss to the equipped weapon.
• Smite's damage is based on the shield. Only Paladins see the listed Smite damage on shields.
• Damage types that work with Smite: Crushing Blow and Open Wounds.
• Damage types that do not work with Smite: Life and mana leech, Deadly Strike, elemental damage from Auras, undead damage from Sanctuary, damage from Charms,
• Smite will steal life (only) when the Life Tap Curse is active on the target.
• Smite always hits, so can be very useful against monsters or players with high defense.
• Bosses and SuperUniques have a resistance to being stunned, but will be stunned with repeated hits. Act Bosses can not be stunned.
• Stun lengths are decreased to 1/2 in Nightmare and 1/4 in Hell.
