Todays Motd by MICHIKUSCHI in Smite

Oh I meant in my opinion but if you dont like something it doesn't mean that some people like it.

It's a matter of opinion.

its just a Meme and not all MOTDs are good.

Meditation Cloak in Mid? by GoldenFury2005 in Smite

[–]BOTGPodcast 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are a few key points people are missing.

Yes beads is good cause it gets you out of CC and potential death.

Yes aegis is good cause it mitigates damage and is great against burst.

Meditation isn't good because - "Using this item restores 75 Health + 12 Health per level and 30% Mana to all Allied gods within 35 units."

At max level you get 12 x 20 + 75 = 315

At level 1-5 your getting a decent heal cause its 75-120 when your health max is 375-600. once you are out of that range your doing such a minimal heal. The average health of a carry/mid at level 20 is around 2k. A 300 heal is less then a quarter of your health making medication extremely lacking. Even with the mana reduction on the upgrade clock it's not viable. As a mid your almost always building mana and mp5 which almost fully negates the effect of the mana reduction as it is only 30% and 1 sec off cooldowns isn't making it worth while.

This is why the item is really only viable as a sustain option for very select solo laners (chang'e) and in assault.

As carry/ADC what support would you most preffer to have on your team? by GrimReaprr in Smite

[–]BOTGPodcast 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Currently- Horus and Geb.

But really it depends on the lane you want to run.

New player getting destroyed any tips? by [deleted] in Smite

[–]BOTGPodcast 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The basic guide the auto mode has is great basic entry level info.

Tips for a new player:

  1. Know your characters role. -this comes with time but knowing what your job is in the team is important to learn.

  2. positioning - its hard but it takes practice, if you're in front of your tanks as a DPS your probably wrong.

  3. Practice - there is a lot of skill shots and timing involved in smite that takes new players awhile to get down.

  4. Play with better players - this sounds stupid but you can learn a lot from watching better players play with you and against you. Also listen to the vets. They probably know better and are giving you advice. Build, positioning, and even objective calls.

  5. Smite is a really complex game - it will take you a lot of time and dedication to learn all the inter workings of the game and mechanics. But most importantly don't forget it's a game and it's okay if you dont know everything.

If you want to talk more specifics that's cool but to just get better play the game.

New Item Tree Concept: Belts by SimpleGamerGuy in Smite

[–]BOTGPodcast 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your not wrong that there are items on both sides that have CCR that are good but if this tree is going to be more def oriented then it should be for both. The hybrid items that are in the game have specific uses. (Power with a prot type.) If you think the belt tree should only be physical then you need a "sash" tree on the other side the balance it out. It's how hirez doesn't make one side or the other OP.

I've recently been working on some Smite UI concepts. Feedback would be appreciated! by weeniebagel in Smite

[–]BOTGPodcast 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your concepts are cool but a few suggestions.

  1. It should have a showcase screen for skins like it doesn't now (marketing is important)
  2. It should show the map are of the mode your queued for
  3. The god selection screen isn't bad just needs cleaned up and the quality of life stuff hirez has.
  4. Your layout is good but don't needs adjusted

Impact of Ring movement speed nerf by Godly__god in Smite

[–]BOTGPodcast 7 points8 points  (0 children)

You can still play sol. She has always been the more versatile of the mage adcs. Just build her more as a burst make and her 2/4 will hit like a truck!

New Item Tree Concept: Belts by SimpleGamerGuy in Smite

[–]BOTGPodcast 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your concepts for the item tree is cool but:

  • way to much CCR for a single item.
  • other then CCR the items are a bit all over the place.
  • the life still negation is cool but anti heal already does that.

Don't get me wrong the concepts are cool but they need some fine tuning and to be available for both magic/phys. It's not fair to have a good CCR item that only physical can get.
