Smiting arrows

[Elindel22]

Hi. Why bother with smiting arrows ?

Only affects constructs, I don’t see a lot of those
questing...

Does the reduced attack speed only affect
construct as well ? Even if it affects all (except
bosses of course), how is 25% reduced attack
speed better then the fear in terror arrows or
the paralyzing effect of paralyzing arrows ?

I see smiting arrows recommended in most guides,
but terror and paralyzing arrows not recommended.

What am I missing concerning smiting arrows ?

Thanks

Two things make it look good to me:

1) +1 Enchantment DC for your paralyzing arrows (it's a passive, meaning it doesn't have to be active to work)
2) Portal beatdowns, like in legendary shroud. The -25% fortification, which helps the whole group, looks particularly tasty.

von4 and any quest with a lot of warforged in it. The golem fights in Castle Ravenloft. it's not a must have, but for certain quests, I like to have it.
