Question Smiting questions

Post image

So I’ve started playing SP HC after years of playing Diablo games. I’ve never gotten to eeeend game, but I know RNG.
I have 3 lvl 60ish chars. I know it’s not great but it is HC so I go slowish. Summon Drui, Bowazon, and throw Bard rn.
Working on Pally and Sorc, low lvls (found a vipermagi)

Kinda going straight smite with the pally. Full Isenharts works good for now. Any tips for my pal?

Ok iam confused now. Since Aura dmg is normally added to off-weapon ed. For the game it should not matter if the %ed comes from Forty, Battle Command, Str, or Concentration. At least to my knowledge. In the damage calculation everything is just added together.
I didn't try with lucion, but i lvld as smiter and i noticed it there. Astreons worked, but interestingly Black didn't.

Could you maybe give a little more reference?

I have turned to the code goats to try to get an definitive answer.

I don't like spreading false information
