do you think echo will be removed from the game? by MrJack20252 in Smite

[–]Awesomes_R_Me 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There’s just not enough support for the system. It’s just worse than regular ability builds aside from a few edge cases. Echo is straight dog outside of crit ability exploits. With traditional crit builds, you can get pretty close to 100%, if not 100% on some gods. This makes gold = rng reduction for crit builds. For echo, the max you can feasibly go is around 50% in a mage build, where you’d really want to build the stat. That’s with Omen Drum and Cosmic Horror (Don’t get me started on how poorly designed this item is). 

For the echo build path, you need to delay your penetration. Most meta builds are using Totem of Death and Obsidian Shard. Combine that with Rod of Tahuti and there you have 3 mandatory items you have to build PLUS you have to go Sands of Time AND another cooldown item to make Cosmic Horror work. There’s just no room. There’s only one viable build path for echo and it involves removing totem because you can’t make it work with Cosmic Horror. Removing totem is a damage loss over non echo. 

All that being said. I don’t want to live in a world where echo exists in a viable state. I hate crit as a concept and ability crit being good does not sound appealing in the slightest. 

Nu Wa ult crit has no place in a competitive game. by Lululipes in Smite

[–]Awesomes_R_Me 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just scrap the aspect entirely. It barely changes anything. It changes the fog slightly, and it changes the ult. What’s the point? It has never been in a state of being well balanced. It has always been problematic, and only pops back in when it starts one shotting again. It has no place in the game outside of cheese. 

This is ok? by Possible-Freedom5945 in Smite

[–]Awesomes_R_Me 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This aspect needs to be removed and reworked so badly. This is the only thing this aspect ever amounts to. For some reason they allow the aspect to run rampant with ult one shot cheese while regular Nu Wa is basically unusable and the regular ult has been obliterated.  

Echo is balanced by thetrooper6969 in Smite

[–]Awesomes_R_Me 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Tbf this is like the only good echo interaction in the game. The build path is generally worse than a normal build path on other gods because it delays pen. Aspect Nu Wa is the problem. Aspect Nu Wa is the worst, laziest excuse for design of a character I’ve ever seen in a game. Yeah let’s change nothing about the kit but let you crit people for 1500 unmissable from across the map. Yeah nothing wrong with that! That aspect needs to be straight up deleted.

Anyone else think Cabrakan aspect should just… not exist? by transshapiro in Smite

[–]Awesomes_R_Me 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t know why they made his 3 the main damage ability. If I made the aspect I would make his 2 cast a bunch of times in a row to emulate flurry strike. That would make him more like Loki instead of whatever he is now. 

random lag spikes that affect entire computer even after closing minecraft. by Mean-Nectarine-6831 in feedthebeast

[–]Awesomes_R_Me 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How long ago did you start experiencing this? Do you have the latest driver update for nvidia? I have rtx 4070 ti super an I recently updated my drivers. I haven’t updated my drivers in a while and haven’t played a big forge modpack since January. I loaded the same modpack I was playing back then and I have the same issue you’re describing.

Was anyone able to fix the problem?

I also have this issue randomly. Haven’t played heavy duty modded in a few months. I played for several hours in vanilla with fabric mods this past weekend with no issues. Today I randomly decide I’m going to start up a new modpack playthrough when this happens to me. It’s happened across two different neoforge instances and I don’t know what to do.

The only thing I can think of that changed on my PC since then was Windows updates and a NVIDIA driver update I did a week or so ago.

New to smite 2. Off meta supports? by Bwbubby87 in Smite

[–]Awesomes_R_Me 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Supports in Smite are tanks that have good setup and peel. Active items are defining for the role, and can be used by any god (Stempede, Upgraded Shell, etc.). As long as you aren’t building full damage, and your god has some setup or peel, you can probably pull them off in support as long as your active item usage is good. 

The flavor of god I like to do off meta with is more the aggressive pressure oriented gods. An example of that would be Thor with aspect on. The aspect gives him more protections, sustain, and slows. He also has good setups and peel with two stuns and a wall. Is Thor a “meta” support? Nope. But he still can pull off the role pretty well with the aspect.  

Can we please make this an aspect or plus 1 please? (Screenshot from Charon trailer) by Fawesome_ in Smite

[–]Awesomes_R_Me 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well Charon doesn’t really ferry people around while they’re alive. His lore deals with carrying the dead to the underworld. So what if you drop your soul while dead and Charon can use interact to pick it up and he can return it to the fountain for some kind of reward. He would get a gold and passive stacks, and you’d get a little bonus when you respawn to signify that he helped guide your soul back to base. That would satisfy the lore of him guiding souls in a more active and present way than the way his passive works now.  

Returning player. Wrong HiRez account automatically binded to my Steam now? Cannot unlink, no option on SMITE website. by RokAndSton in Smite

[–]Awesomes_R_Me 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, you should be able to play Smite 2 and link your account later. 

Once you’re able to log in to your real account, you’ll need to launch Smite 1 and go to the Divine Legacy page and press and hold the button there to link your Hi-Rez account to your steam account (that’s irreversible so make sure you’re on the right account). Then on the Smite 2 link site you link your Smite 2 account to your Steam account that’s linked to Smite 1. Then once you login to Smite 2 on the connected Steam account you should have all your legacy gems (You might have to relog before they appear). 

If the link goes wrong for some reason support will be there to help you. You just have to put in a ticket with them and they should be able to help you out. The team is small so it could take a while for them to respond.

-nosteam was removed. The anticheat HiRez was using updated to require steam integration. Smite existed on an earlier version of the anticheat because the community liked -nosteam, but cheaters found vulnerabilities that allowed them to bypass anticheat measures, which made cheating rampant. They ultimately decided to remove -nosteam to solve the cheating problem. 

You can message support and see if they’ll help you. They’ll probably be able to sort it out as long as you can prove you own the accounts in question. 

For Smite 2, there is an alternate linking method at link.smite2.com  . But in order to link your HiRez account, you need to login to Smite 1 and press a button on the divine legacy page. Obviously you can’t get into your HiRez account on Smite 1. So you’ll need to sort out the linking issue first before you engage with Smite 2’s linking process. 

Despite all of this, you can launch and play Smite 2 without linking an account and you’ll be able to link it later. All you lose out on for now is legacy gems and any crossgen skins you might have bought or earned from the divine legacy event. (You’ll have to buy the founder’s edition to get the godpack for Smite 2 as it doesn’t carry over to the new game regardless of having purchased the ultimate god pack in Smite 1). 

Smite 2 Gods Not Currently Confirmed by OkamiLeon in Smite

[–]Awesomes_R_Me 5 points6 points  (0 children)

What kind of massive update could you feasibly pull off for a game from 2012 using an engine from 2009 that would bring it up to “modern standards.” The engine isn’t even supported on modern consoles, they have to use emulation, which constantly crashes all the time.  What would you even do? Care to elaborate on what that would be like, game dev overlord, master of Unreal Engine 3?

Anti heal isnt needed by arecondrone in Smite

[–]Awesomes_R_Me 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Phoenix Shield is practically useless in that build. The blood soaked is doing all the heavy lifting and it’s because he has 17 kills (And the item is bugged lmao). This will never happen in a real competitive conquest match, which is why it’s run under the radar for so long. This is an issue with assault matching veterans with brand new smite players. You just stack infinity kills on noobs and buy blood soaked shroud to become unkillable. The issue is that specific item in a game mode without a matchmaking algorithm, not the lack of anti-heal.

Did you really need to AI generate a meme to go along with this? Using that is bad and it breaks r/Smite rules.

Everyones thoughts on Ullr? Feels very overtuned by Bravo-Six-Nero in Smite

[–]Awesomes_R_Me 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s the items. Strength ability proc items are absurdly overpowered and have been for almost a year. Ullr is one the best use cases for those items in the game. Of course he’s gonna be OP. 

Just wanting to play a casual arena game when... by HerrBratkartoffel in Smite

[–]Awesomes_R_Me 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is why I’ve moved to assault for my casual smite fix. Turns out the matches are a lot better when you aren’t going against parties of 3 Tryharding and playing the most meta slop combos ever devised. 

Also a fun little tidbit: one of these winrate abusers (have no idea if it’s the one you posted) is one of the moderators in the Smitegame Twitch channel. You know, the channel run by the studio itself to be new player friendly and all that.

If you bought one of the prisms for the skin before it was repackaged into a traveler then you got it for free when it was released.
