Key factors

Farm minions, build stacks, get insane crits, 40k-50k player damage, 700+-1000+ crits endgame with 55% critical chance, once transcendence is built keep bolos activated, personally I wouldn't go after full health gods until wind demon has been built and if you feel you want speed an pen before critical move fatalis up in build order.Stay buffed, power early, speed mid, power late and solo farm those camps as much as possible, 91 gold a peice Enjoy :)

Great build. New to Smite and this build helped get my kill count up.

Hastened Fatalis has been removed from game. Can you recommend what item to replace it with?

Personally, against stronger competition, this build is going to suffer in Arena. There are some key factors:

It's missing strong pen (either The Executioner or Titan's Bane)...this can be okay if the enemy team is mostly squishy and they mostly build 0 protections.
Deathbringer is built 1st. It's the most expensive crit, Xbal has no added crit in his kit to help its 20% procs out, etc. In a quick Arena game, you want to be as efficient as possible in your power curve to keep yourself relevant, so super-expensive items early in the build are just not good. Wind Demon or Rage would actually provide higher DPS at this point...but crit 3rd on him is just not that great.
He has no attack speed steroids. He's got great abilities. These should be the focus. Jotunn's Wrath is one I'd consider core in this mode (but never purchase it in Conquest).
There are other things, but just not going to continue on that for now.

As for Fatalis...there's just no replacement. I would just build completely different for him, focusing on ability use. No crits at all. Trans is fine. I'd consider Qin's. I'd consider late. I'd get and . Things like that.

FYI Nystorum, the build maker hasn't been on since a few days after he originally created this, in February. It's unlikely to be updated, and think that there are better builds to follow.

Even back when he was on, this was a terrible build outside of .
