SMITE: Baldur's Gate 2, BG2

Smite BG2

In Baldur's Gate 2, Smite is a high level ability or BG2 HLA that is available to warriors such as Fighter, Paladin, Ranger, Barbarian and Monk.

Smite is more useful to Archers than it is to melee-based warriors, who'd rather simply slay something rather than knock it back and then have to run it down.

Smite is a nice opener vs. the demi-lich, followed up by IMoD GWW for disruption:

"Why do we Smite the lich? Why not just GWW it?" The Smite opener is a safety precaution vs. demi-lich Imprisonment.

With the Smite ability, the warrior gains the ability to strike a mighty blow, knocking an opponent back for a considerable distance and stunning the opponent for 1 round. All attacks made in the first round are critical hits. The ability lasts for 2 rounds. Large creatures such as a dragons or giants will not be knocked back or stunned.

Requires: Power Attack, Critical Strike.
