Description

Trying tyo figure out what the best gloves are if you are running with Exile.

Everyones gonna yell dracs but if i have a 15% lifetap chance with Exile i dont NEED dracs. So wouldnt 20ias tri res gloves be the best in slot option? Or
Blood Gloves
with 20 ias 10 crushing blow str and res would be the best but those will be hard to find.

You really don't need much extra IAS as a smiter.

I for one dropped Drac's for
Steelrend
the second I got my Exile done and never looked back. Not sure there is a better option, unless you do really need that IAS for some odd reason.

OP
steelrends str req is STUPID high though. I'm using a
Dusk Shroud
COH ii'm not really gonna want to have to get that much str.

If you don't know what to go with, I'd suggest LoH

Or ik gloves for the dex, which let you be able to put more vitality, than again sanders for the 40 life, but rare tri res would be a better choice, like if you find or gamble dex+tri res

Been pondering this question myself.

A good pair of crafted
Blood Gloves
is probably the best bet, but another potentially overlooked couple of pieces would be
Bloodfist
, or
Sander's Taboo
. Both come with IAS (not that you need much of it, but some can come in handy) and +40 life.
Bloodfist
also comes with 30% FHR.

Otherwise
Laying of Hands
couldn't hurt for the +50% Fire res if you're lacking resistances (Exile doesn't have any natively, after all).

Also if you're using the Smiter for doing Ubers, the %ED against demons works wonders for the final 20% or so of their HP (coupled with Grief).

I use my Smiter solely for Ubers, basically. Having tri res and LoH both wouldn't be a bad option as well, if you're using your smiter for other uses.

I was under the impression that the +350% damage to demons from
Laying of Hands
doesn't work on
Smite
? (since dmg+% doesn't apply to it in general) but if it does, then this is certainly another point in favor of LoH.

You're correct, it doesn't. Forgot to mention I have 1 point into
Zeal
as well for when they get low to finish them off.

It works really well in clearing out
Travincal
as well, with
Zeal
instead of
Smite
, even with one point. It's just not something I make a habit of running.
