Smiting Prayers

Jump to navigationJump to search

Smiting Prayers is a monk secondary attribute. Most Smiting Prayers skills either deal damage to attacking foes or deal holy damage.

No inherent effect. Many Monk skills, especially those related to dealing holy damage, become more effective with higher Smiting Prayers. Holy damage is especially powerful against the undead.
