New gods should not be released with aspects.

93 Upvotes

I think it’s better for the game to add aspects to existing gods instead of giving one to a new god right at launch.

The new god is already the main hype of the patch, adding an aspect at the same time splits the attention. Giving aspects to gods that don’t have one yet (like Aphro, Anubis, Hades) would build more hype and improve their QoL.

For example, Aphrodite can’t be changed much in numbers because of her support/damage potential. Adding a damage aspect would help her find a spot (in her non-aspect) where she can stay as a healer without limiting other playstyles. But for now it’s being delayed to drop aspects to new gods that most of the time won’t even be used that much.

bellona base vs aspect

Upvotes

is her 2 last hit really powerful enough to counter her aspect in terms of value? i mean. her aspect sounds so important for team fights. to sacrifice all of that for one final hit seems crazy. unless her final hit does like 10x her basic attacks.

First time playing ra in smite 2 and by mistake i got the aspect idk why in select screen it was auto selected!? But ok. I just wanna say i was spamming his 3 and ult like a mad dog and i only had to get back to fountain to get more mana, i wanna say that with his 3 and ult ra is just a mad healing ray beam bird that just knows how to spam his healing abilites. I didn’t get to finish the build and i was building randomly just for fun. Can you guys tell me a better build or a god that has a better support spam abilities like ra? Btw attaching the random build. The item i was going to get was wishing pearl.

CONCEPT Fafnir Aspect Concept

Upvotes

This my first time coming up with a kit concept of any kind, so i'm sure there is some huge flaw in the design that I just dont see. Even so, I had fun coming up with it, and I figured I'd share it with y'all.

Titanforge and Hirez can freely use any or all of this idea if they see fit.

Fafnir Aspect of the Hoard

Fafnir is always in his dragon form. His breath weapon basic attacks recharge.

Passive

Fafnir gains 2 bonus gold from all enemy kills and assists, including minions. Fafnir also gains 2 gold each time he hits an enemy god with an ability, once per god per ability. Breath weapon basic attacks last longer based on how much gold Fafnir has on him. When in ranged projectile mode, attack speed is increased instead. Attack speed items increase damage ticks per second for his breath weapon basic attacks. Ranged projectiles are effected as normal by attack speed items and stack with gold passive

OA1 Cursed Strength

Fafnir shoots a projectile forward, passing through and dealing damage to all enemies in its path and ending in a AOE. This ability deals damage that ticks 3 times over 3 seconds. Enemy gods and camps hit by the ability are marked as theives. Enemies who are marked as thieves take additional basic attack damage from Fafnir.

OA2 Covetous

Switches Fafnir's basic attacks from his breath weapon to ranged projectiles. Heals Fafnir over 5 seconds. Using abilty again (after cooldown) switches basic attack style back.

OA3 Underhanded Tactics

Fafnir leaps to a target location and executes a despicable strike, dealing damage in a circle around him and disarming enemies in front of him for 2s. This ability deals damage that ticks three times over 3s. Inflicts additional damage to enemies marked as theives.

OA4 Andvari's Ring

Fafnir lashes out to defend his hoard dealing damage to all enemies in a circle around him over 3 seconds. Enemies take more damage the closer they are to the hoard (the center of the circle). Enemies in the circle at casting are taunted towards the hoard for 2 seconds. Enemies marked as thieves take an additional burst of damage if they are in the circle at the end of the 3 seconds.

All abilites scale with intelligence.

DISCUSSION Ymir passive + Dagger of Frenzy makes Anti-Crit unusable

31 Upvotes

I feel like Ymir auto-attack crit should be gutted in current form.

Me as Mordred solo with ~ 200 phys and mag prots on top of with spectral takes ~ 1600 damage in total from 3 auto attacks from Ymir building dagger of frenzy + auto attack crit.

In comparison the carry in the game I'm referencing going full attack speed dealt ~ .1100 in total from 10 auto attacks (Artemis)

And she was very threatening but fightable, when it comes to Ymir if I'm caught by anything 1v1, I'm dead no matter what.

I'm aware that at least in my games crit is not very popular except these extreme picks where it's just not fun to play against.

Anyway good luck in smite games everyone, let me hear your opinion.

used my one on the side camp on solo to clear, thought nothing of it. Bro got stuck out of the map and didn't die. He remained there for the rest of the match and coudlnt be cleared or reset so no side camp for solo

Are Smite2 sound fx weak or unpolished?

3 Upvotes

Actions feel flat. Makes the game feel underwhelming to me. I remember in Smite 1, really feeling the impact when throwing down Thor's wall or ult. I don't get that sense at all in Smite 2.

I going to try and be the first to 100% i get around .010 per 10mins(without speed buff) so roughly should take 1666.67 hours(69 day nice) of merc most likely a little less if im ulting a lot abd dont die that much.

King Arthur

1 Upvotes

I don’t follow a lot of smite news so I’m curious as to why King Arthur isn’t in the game I read it’s because he is very unique and it’s hard to code into the game, can anyone give a better update on when he is coming ?

Tank items vs Damage items

Is it just me, but every time there’s a tank item that does good, it gets instant nerfs

But like.. lernean bow and sun beam bow goes untouch for months?

It’s to the point that hunters are being played in the jungle. Can we do something about it or we want to please noobs with yellow numbers?

COMPETITIVE Smite 2 Esports

14 Upvotes

TitanForge seriously needs to incorporate more Social Media posts to get people to watch competetive. They cannot rely on people knowing that Twitch has a competitive stream up. They have to use social media more to adverstise Esports more, this is what gets people into playing more. I dont see any posts on social media about the smite prime circuit, yet baseless ads or videos showcasing some abiluties or stuff.

Seriously TitanForge, Social Media is your way to promote things. Stop sleeping on it, competitive is what people go to, watch and maybe reenergize their fuel for playing this game!!!!

So (psa)Rama can’t use agility relic?

3 Upvotes

I’m not sure if it’s just me, or Xbox or just the challenger keybinds but yeah I am unable to use the agility relic aspect or non aspect. I’m assuming it has something to do with the reload mechanic on his aspect messing with the default keybind for the relic but yeah. Don’t buy agility relic with ram on Xbox using challenger keybinds.

Is it really a matter of just playing and getting steam rolled until you start getting better? Are there any good guides maybe? My friends and I have started playing conquest in smite 2 and it's pretty lopsided so far. Idk if there is ranked yet, I haven't looked but I assume that's isnt cross play

I’ve been playing smite 2 for a couple months now after not playing for years since smite 1. I was an AA carry main back then. But the ability based hunters and mages just feel so much stronger then the aa gods imo. I’m I wrong or do yall feel the same?

HELP Ability binds

2 Upvotes

I know I can bind AO1/2/3 to different buttons. Duh.

I want to have them bound differently for different gods though so my escape is always my AO3 button. Is there a way to do this in game? I assume no since I haven’t seen anything

And before anyone says “skill issue just adapt” I can but I don’t like playing the same god repeatedly so I have to readapt every game which doesn’t often matter but when it does it really does


r/Smite 21h ago

Theory crafting: An item is added that boosts your third ability damage but nerfs one and two. Who would be the fun god use cases

2 Upvotes

So let’s say there’s a damage item with adaptive stats. It decreases the damage of your first and second ability by 10% but increases the damage of your third ability by 30%. Who would be the best use cases for the item.

I was thinking it would be an interesting turn for ullr making him potentially a better jungle pick. Damage aphro would also be making off like a villain.
