If +12 damage on a smiting charge at 6th level (or +24 damage on a smiting charge if your DM is dumb enough to allow Rhino's Rush into the game) is good, the ability to do it twice more is better. At 6th level, with extra smiting, you can put out as many smites as a 6th level sorceror can put out fireballs. It's not every attack, but it's good. By the time you're 12th level, +24 or +48 (Rhino's Rush) damage on a charge is incredible. And it's not bad to just be able to toss out a bunch of smites and take down an opponent. You still have to pay attention to how many smites you have and how often you use them, but with extra smiting you'll still have more smites than a wizard has castings of his highest level spell.As to the X/encounter, thought, I'll wait and see if 4th edition is ok, horrible, or great before I stake myself down on it. For now though I'll confine myself to pointing out that with Extra Smiting at 6th level, you can make it a per encounter ability if you want it to be. Just smite once per encounter.</blockquote>
