Introduction

Hello there, my name is Shikaco and I'm making this Jing Wei guide since I found out not many people played her effectively. I'm a Jing Wei main btw.

Pros / Cons

Why play Jing Wei? Well, here's some Pros / Cons on her.

Pros :
-Tied 2nd highest basic attack damage.
-A lot of mobility.
-Fairly easy to use.
-Critical steroids in her 2.

Cons :
-Squishy af.
-Kit is really basic.
-Easily ganked.
-Lot of mobility sometimes causes overconfidence.

Skills

Jing Wei's passive, Rapid Reincarnation grants her extreme mobility when exiting the fountain. Hovering around in 5s while being CC immune also acts as a personal ward. this hovering time should be enough to get almost base-to-base in Arena, middle of lane in Joust, and past the tower in Conquest. (It also works from enemy fountain. When I'm really bored I get into enemy base in Arena and just flew back to mine :P)

Jing Wei's 1, Persistent Gust is her only damaging ability beside her Ult. This ability can cause up to 290(+90% phys power) and gives 7s attack speed buff if she is knocked up by this ability. Her 1 also acts as a knock up that can extend the range of her 3. Personally, I don't use this much since it's hard to hit and I'd prefer to save it for either escape or finishing a low health target.

Jing Wei's 2, Explosive Bolts is her most used ability. It grants her next 3 basic attack a crit chance buff up to 20% and also makes her basic attack deals AoE damage. When you're starting a match, remember to activate this before going out of fountain. Also when going back to fountain, use this to minimize the cooldown needed after going out of the fountain again.

Jing Wei's 3, Agility is her main escape tool. While it only has a small rage of 35, it gives you 3s immunity to basic attack movement penalty. If used when knocked up, it's range extend to 55 and the buff is increased to 6s. Why do I prioritize this over her 1? Because the long initial cooldown is going to be your death cause in early-mid game if you're down.

Jing Wei's Ult, Air Strike is her damaging tool to chase fleeing enemies since it covers a lot of area (30 in width and 70 in length). Also, you could land 55 units away from the 70 units after the damage itself so it basically covers 125 units to chase/escape. The damage is fairly enough, capping at 580(+100% of phys power). Remember not to hesitate to use this as an escape because your main damaging source will still be your basic attack.

Items

Why Ninja Tabi? Now you need more attack speed than raw power due to her 2 being nerfed so you need to land more basics to clear effectively. You can swap it for Warrior Tabi if you like, but I don't see many points in that in the current stats of how she is played right now.

Rush B(loodforge).
75 extra phys power and the lifesteal will give you another boost to stay active and useful in early game. Now if you are in Conquest or Joust, you could build Devourer's Gauntlet instead and I recommend it so, but if you have a lead and you can afford to buy Bloodforge, you might as well get it

Ichaival
If you managed to get a lead, you could go Qin's Sais for more damage output but Ichaival is really strong right now. You're looking to build crit after this item so it makes more sense to build Ichaival as it is cheaper. Late game consider sell it to get Qin's Sais. You could also go for Odysseus Bow if you'd like.

Wind Demon
Why not Deathbringer? Because you're probably in mid game while getting this item. The passive effect of this item gives you extra 20% attack and movement speed for 5s. With her 2 and just this one, you already got 40% crit chance. Now every time you crit, you can chase down enemy and finish them easier. It also gives more in terms of trading against the enemy.

The Executioner
Now this one is situational, if the enemy is tanky af, going Titan's Bane is more worth it. The only thing you lose with Titan's Bane is the attack speed so consider it well. It gives you +30 phys along with +25% attack speed along with the protection debuff. Could also swap with Qin's Sais if you have a lead.

Deathbringer
Easy choice. With her crit steroids, Deathbringer will just makes you destroy everything in sight. Total of 60% crit chance with 40% extra damage with each crit will make you able to punish squishy targets faster. I don't recommend changing this item at all.

Summary

Personally, I always use this build on my Jing Wei whenever I get the chance to play her.
I recently got a penta, a quadra, and 2 triple kills in one game and finished 29-0-7 with her in Arena. Throughout the game, the enemies are more afraid of Raijin and Loki so I took it to my advantage and just literally destroyed them. I two-shotted Susano, Nemesis, and Thanatos. 6 shots fired, 5 crits. Three-shotted He Bo and Fafnir, all the five of them fresh out of the fountain.

This build is like the other adc build, a late game killing machine. But this build will make you be effective from early-mid game. Due to Jing Wei being underrated by a lot of people, making use of them ignoring you is the best thing to do.

I hope this guide might help you guys if you ever feel like wanting to try something different and unique. Thanks for reading, and stay awesome.

new note :
Due to her nerfs, putting points in her 1 could help you a lot now but I didn't do much of that since I needed her 2 and 3 more than her 1.

Hi Shikaco,

Welcome to the community, and thanks for putting an effort into the creation of a guide. As xZero mentioned in his comment, if you have BBcoding questions, we'll be happy to help. Using the code to take advantage of the SF database makes things much more functional for a reader.

With regard to the build, I understand the thought process, but there are some potential issues. I'm not saying your build isn't working for you to some degree, but there are some optimizations that can be made. I'll point them out, but what you do with it is your choice.

I'll assume you're talking about Arena only. Based on somewhat distant history (3 months +) it looks like you play Arena almost exclusively.
  • Bloodforge as 2nd item: This is typically a difficult choice to suggest as 2nd item, though perhaps it has its benefits. The main issue is its cost...it's considered a luxury lifesteal item, and delaying other items to finish this can definitely put you behind. It's even more difficult for me to endorse in Arena, because matches are so short. If you build this AND you're building 2 crit items, I'm guessing you don't finish your build before the match ends very often. If you like the movement speed it provides, I might suggest Heartseeker 2nd, as it synergizes really well with her Explosive Bolts and getting the stacks back up ASAP.

  • Hastened Fatalis: You said it yourself, she already has this effect in her kit. Sure, it's only active part time, but if you get Heartseeker as suggested above, you don't need the move speed, and you can choose another item that gives you some other helpful stats that will also be better for your DPS. In this case, to replace the lifesteal from Bloodforge, you can consider Asi...it's cheap, provides some pen, and you get a decent lifesteal effect. The cheap part just means you'll be able to get started on your next item sooner, which is huge for Arena.

  • Wind Demon / Deathbringer: I have no problem with these choices for crit items. That said, because she's got built-in crit chance, and because the crit items are built last, it's likely Explosive Bolts will already be at level 5, so you MIGHT consider getting Deathbringer even before Wind Demon. The added damage it provides in a quick burst might really help secure some kills.

Those are the suggestions I have. You may or may not agree, and that's fine. Hope it's helpful!

On to the main Jing Wei build before i forget. The second item Bloodforge is only good late game due to the cost of it. If you still want Bloodforge incorporated into the build, you can instead buy Asi second item then replace it with Bloodforge in the later stages. Everything else is pretty solid. You might have to build wind demon earlier to compensate for lack of damage in the first three items.

This build also lacks pen only having Titan's Bane is not really go well for late game tanks. I mostly prefer taking out Hastened Fatalis and put in The Executioner would be a good replacement.

Titan's Bane is good alone actually, considering there are no diminishing returns and you get to shred towers pretty easily. The Executioner might provide more pen for targets and everyone else on your team but it does not affect towers in any way. Preference if anything else.

Besides your main targets should not be tanks, it should be the squishies. The tanks are then useless by themselves (mostly).

This is kind of off topic of this guide but xZeroStrike thanks for mentioning me. Don't worry I'm not bragging this for popularity just thanking for the mention.

The goal of this "welcoming" thing is to make new players feel welcomed instantly. The information provided is valuable (i.m.o) and is supposed to help new players quickly and easily get used to the website.

Also, while I do agree that probably 75% of it is off-topic, the last part (Where the users, articles and my BB-coding thing are) are actually related to the guide. Basically a nicer and more helpful way of saying: "Work on that BB-coding!" :P

Fixed that spelling mistake, thanks for notifying me on that one :p

Also glad you like it. I saved this in a txt document on my computer and I might use it for every new person to join SMITEfire and make a guide. It lists what the site has to offer, while also giving some valuable information to quickly and easily help those new players on their way.

The ultimate goal is to hopefully keep them here. The more (nice) souls we can get in the community here, the nicer and livelier it'll be.
