Good Zealers use Smite against Ubers [...] Before I tried Infinity I used a The Reaper's Toll as well and in my estimation / for ME overall Infinity is the better choice (better hit chance overall and you get the lower def instantly and do not have to "wait" until Decrepify procs).
No offense, too. But I encourage you to "play" with real builds and not rely on "theoretical calculations"
I don't play Pala much, but doesn't Smite always hit the target regardless of attack rating and defense?
That means everything you said makes even less sense and the "real" advantage you mention is imaginary.

Yes it does, and that it the reason I use it with Uber Baal (and the Uber Ancients to get the "right" kill order). For all other mobs I use Zeal.

You could just use Smite on all the Ubers so you don't have to waste 70% damage potential to hit them reliably with Zeal.
I guess "good" players do it like that. At least you found a solution for your self-made problem.

You really amuse me (no offense). I get the other Ubers quicker down with Zeal (because they have far lower def than Uber Baal and my Merc easily brings their def down further) and my Dracs proc faster when I hit their minions, too.
You really should play this game and not crunshing numbers
I gladly let you have the last word, but I am out here now. Cheers

@oOKIWIOo You said that your chars need this setup for mana sustain and players shouldn't complain, because it's a trade-off between damage and sustain. Turns our you're just playing your characters wrong or your setup is bad and you could have both, which invalidates the point you were trying to make.
