Intro

First off this is my first build and I would appreciate constructive criticism. I have played smite for awhile and I am pretty good at it. So here goes nothing.

Introduction

He Bo is a really good god if played right. he can dish out massive damage with just a few abilities.

Pros
-good damage
-awesome in team fights
-good ganker

-has good amount of manna mid game and forward do you don't need to get meditation

Cons

-very squishy
-not the best mid
-escape ability is the best

-Build is pretty minions kill dependent

Good laning partners/ bad lane enemies

Contrary to belief He Bo is not that good of I mid character. I prefer to lane one the right side with He Bo.

Guan yu and He Bo
-This is manly good cause of their alt combo. But they are also really good pushers, And guan can heal when your low on health.

Any god with a stun
- If your teammate stuns them you can easily pop you abilities on them.

DONT GO AGAINST...
be care full about gods with stuns especially Ymir, cause when your stunned they can easily kill you.

anyone who can do massive damage at one, cause if you don't see them coming you dead.

Iteams

(The first build set is really just a troll build but still works as ADC. )

Boots of the magi
-Base item for all mages necessity. Don't leave out this item He Bo is to slow to do anything without it. You don't But this item you might as well not play.

Warlock's Sash
-Good item for all mages too. Give plenty of magic power, manna, and health. Although you have to get a good amount of minions kills to give it it's full potential.

Book of Thoth
-Another good item gives a good amount of manna and additional MP and MP5

Rod of Tahuti
-This item is a necessity cause it really gives a boost to you MP making you a lethal weapon

polynomicon
-This give you more power and life steal, but can be switched out with the gem of isolation if you are dying a lot or need an extra bit of health

Obsidian Shard
- This gives you the necessary magic penetration to tie up your build and be able to deal with those pesky tanks. This is another important item but you can swap it for another penetration item.

Skills

Water Cannon
-This is a really good spamming ability and will do most of your damage.

Flood Waters
- This isn't all that great cause you have to be on it to go faster witch is a strait line, making you a easy target. its good to slow incoming enemies though.

Waterspout
- This is another really good ability, because of it nock up. you can use it to give a teammate more time to get away and you can use it when a melee is right on your tail by using it under you and it with usually hit them giving you more time to get away.

Crushing Wave
- This is a good alt for team fights. It is also good to get away, if you turn around at your enemies and use it so you rush pass them in the opposite direction.

Summary

HE Bo is a very good god. When you get the hang of him he can be a lethal weapon in your hands. HE is the Loki of mages and is fun to play

Conclution

I accidently opened a second build and couldn't figure how to close it. But the ADC build actually works.

why would you put an adc/troll build in your guide?
