I use it with the shatter rune using a FotF/Eberli ascendancy build, it's a good filler in between the 5 second casts. It's actually half decent but only until I get my last piece of akkan. As far as I can tell the second cast doesn't generate additional wrath which is disappointing.
Smite is just too bad. Even with this chest and the Flail, its just bad. just doesn't have enough utility or damage to make up for Punish: Retaliate. Its ranged; woo, and they recently buffed the range to 30 yards; thats still kinda poo though; nothing more annoying than moving position becuase something is just out of range.
Having said that; it got some buffs in the last patch so I could give it another go...
