Smith of Kitava

	You hunger for power, and by force of arms, you will take it.

Smith of Kitava is an Ascendancy class for the Warrior.

Overview

The Smith of Kitava has honed his blacksmithing with the power of the god Kitava. He can make his weapon more lethal by forging it into an ally with Manifest Weapon, prepping it with Temper Weapon to give it explosive hits, or make it unleash fire spells on hit with Heat of the Forge. The Smith of Kitava can scale elemental resistances effectively thanks to Coal Stoker and Forged in Flame, by having fire resistance scale his cold and lightning resistances as well. With Smith's Masterwork, he can spend passive points to add powerful mods of his choosing to a Normal body armour.
