Smiting

Smiting is a powerful weapon enhancement that may cause the death of a construct on a Vorpal Strike.

Smiting
Additionally, smiting weapons have an undocumented +2 enhancement bonus against constructs, much like a Construct Bane weapon.

Additional information

 * Smiting is an effective Shroud Portal beating enhancement
 * Smiting is also very effective for beating down training dummies. After the first time it is destroyed on each new instance of an airship, the dummy remains in a "helpless" state and takes +50% damage (from Smiting, averaging 6d6 extra per hit and 150 damage on vorpal hits).
 * The Mace of Smiting lists the older effect, but uses the new version.
 * The Sovereign Rune of Smiting on Dragontouched armor uses the older effect instead: any critical hit on a construct forces the target to make a DC 23 Fortitude save or die. This effect stacks with the new smiting.
