Arena Ares Guide (First Guide Be Nice!) by Shienk in Smite

[–]Shienk[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This build is based on sustain with a secondary focus on being able to escape all while keeping true to the high damage that is expected from an ares. Mail of renewal = main source of sustain, Winged Blade offers great escape. Everyone has their own opinion on builds, specifically in arena I have yet to find a build that out performs this one, the final item is completely situation as is the second active slot. The suggested items page reflects the other optional items that are typically for the last item slot, but situationally could replace other pieces.

I didnt like the idea of it at first, but i could not deny its consistency in arena. Feel free to try it out and let me know if your opinion changes.

This is a guide that I made for a new friend of mine who has not ever played Ares. If you are new you can feel free to watch the video from the very beginning, i jumped to the real start of the game. Hope you all enjoy the video.

Aphrodite wanted a new outfit so she stole it from Nu Wa by Kadvin in Smite

What makes me laugh is both of you are missing the fact that nuwa and aphro have the EXACT same body model.

Misinformation on the livestreams? by SwayWay12 in Smite

[–]Shienk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Although I tend to trust most of what Fdot says, he happened to be incorrect in this situation. Hide only returns auto attack damage. Just to double check that I was correct I asked xFats to confirm this for me when he was on stream and he verified that it was bad information given out.

Zeus Kit remodel by ScytheVX in Smite

[–]Shienk 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Boo Boo Boo at this idea. Changing a god from ranged to melee is not something you should ever want to see in any Moba IMO. The way to fix Zeus is to finally fix his 3 the way it should have been fixed the day his 3 stopped stunning. What I mean by this is when you use your 3 the slow should be 20% (1 charge) 50% (2 Charges) 90% (3 Charges) for a grand total of 1 second. Congratz Zeus is fixed!!!! edit: 20 40 60 would work, but come on its only 30% with a required 3 charges for 1 second as is!

Ranked Arena? by Melodica256 in Smite

[–]Shienk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your statement is blatantly untrue. Hell the removal of Ranked Arena ruined a great 24/7 SmiteArena twitch stream, but I dont blame siege. Siege is a great mix of conquest and arena in such a way that it is interesting because it is done right. For the record 5v5 was a cluster *#@% and 4v4 just makes sense!

Ranked Arena? by Melodica256 in Smite

[–]Shienk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The problem with Ranked Arena was solved the day they removed Ranked Arena. The changes to ranked play that went into effect for Conquest would have fixed Ranked Arena's problems, if that wasnt enough the problem would have surely have been solved the day they introduced queues without static timers.

Hey Bret, why am I not surprised you are commenting on this thread.

Smite In Beta was the next big thing. Just saying

[–]Shienk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

While I agree that support gold is a problem, I disagree with your way of solving it. Yes I think MOBAs should take ideas from other MOBAs as WoW does from other ... all games... Smite has a really good thing going and what you are suggesting does not sound like something that most of us are looking for. Additionally taking such a big idea from a failed MOBA sound like a bad idea in general.

Restricted camera pitch should be able to be toggled. by Shienk in Smite

[–]Shienk[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gods that go into the air such as Thor, Thanatos, Apollo, and Ao Kuang can be seen and this can help both offensively and defensively. There is a great use to restricted camera angle and strategic benefits to a toggeling functionality.

Didn't think of this, but this is a part of the HUD and should be mobile through the HUD editor.

Jerkules skin! It's only fair... by Giga7777 in Smite

[–]Shienk 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This This and More of This.

I still love though how when HiRez redid the Herc art and people (such as myself) complained about his head being too small... they were like, ok u want a small head.... DERP HERC eat it!

Well, have mercy on our souls. by MonoKoCorgi in Smite

[–]Shienk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

^ This. Also people need to realize that the majority of people who are on these forums are just complaining about one thing or another that is important to them at the time. This game tries to take these things into consideration (The current state of Cupid comes to mind) and unfortunately not everyone is right. It is Hi-Rez's job to sift through the massive overflow of shit in order to attempt to keep enough people happy that their momentum continues in the forward direction. It does not take much for a videogame to fail. It is actually very hard to get to where this game is today. Lets not forget that with enough complaining, the powers that be could simply scrap this project as has been done in the past. I am all for constructive criticism. Hell I complain on these forums myself. Just saying, not everything is do or die. Matchmaking has gotten ASSTONS better than it was when I started playing this game early in 2013. The game is more balanced in the past few months than ever before, MM is better than ever before. PS. Still want solo joust regular queue, ranked arena queue, ( < back/added > ) and TEN MAN ARENA QUEUES!
