Aphrodite blows a kiss to an allied god, making them her soul mate and giving them both increased movement speed. If it hits an ally, it has a reduced 1s cooldown. If the kiss hits an enemy god, they are Damaged, Stunned and Aphrodite's soul mate gets jealous, increasing their damage. Also, Aphrodite's soul mate gains 50% of her MP5 and 10% of her Physical and Magical Protections.

If an enemy would be hit by both blasts, they will only be affected by the one originating from Aphrodite.

So you wanna Aphro supp?

Notice: This is an unconventional build for the unconventional player.

Hey, all Afrodayt fans and all Aprho main players.


Now I know what you're all gonna say, that Aphrodite shouldn't be doing support because she's squishy blah-blah-blah, and if you wanna win, you should pick Sylvanus or Athena or go solo lane, but that's not the reason why I made this guide.


Aphrodite is a very versatile character. She can do almost any role (she shines the least in Jungle and Carry, I guess). Aphrodite is all about protecting her soulmate, and her Smooching Kiss of Love is only at full power with a partner. She can still do the job of support, and for what she lacks in tankiness, she makes up for it with HEALING that come in ticks!

Pros and Cons

Cons of using Aphrodite as a support:
- very paper...
- needs very good positioning for the support role
- her stun has almost no effect as a CC.
- every other mage God has better damaging spells
- her spells are hard to land with, and have rather slow traveling speed making it easy to dodge.

Pros in using Aprhodite as a support:
- very, very nice sustain, probably the best reason IMO
- a very OP ultimate when activated just at the right moment
- doesn't require too high Magic Damage to sustain (thanks to Rod of Asclepius
- skill mechanics are easy
- fun to use, being an damnsel-in-distress chick goddess. Gotta love it when seemingly underdog characters prove disbelievers wrong!

Going back to Kriega1's comment. Ethereal Staff and Chronos' Pendant shouldn't be on a support build.

The staff can work depending upon the support (I used it on Fafnir with good results), but I do agree that CDR and/or MP5 should come from aura items because Chronos' Pendant is a very selfish item in that it only really benefits you.

But why would you use Ethereal Staff over Gem of Isolation on Fafnir?

So you updated this build but still have 3 damage items. Why? At the very least swap Ethereal Staff and Gem of Isolation for the other items I mentioned in my first comment.

You also haven't fixed your start yet.

Kriega1 (143) | June 29, 2018 6:24am
I would just stick to Magic Shell and Heavenly Wings for relic options since Aphrodite can heal, meaning Meditation Cloak is unnecessary.

Also your start is very bad. No health potions and way too many mana potions. If you want wards and potions that can be refilled I recommend this start: Guardian's Blessing, Chalice of Healing, Chalice of the Oracle.

This build is also way too squishy with not enough defense to be a support. I would get Rod of Asclepius 3rd or 4th instead of 2nd, and I would get rid of Gem of Isolation, Ethereal Staff and Shield of Regrowth.

Example Build 1: Shoes of Focus, Gauntlet of Thebes, Breastplate of Valor, Rod of Asclepius, Pestilence (if they have hardly any healing get bulwark instead), Spirit Robe.

Example build 2: Shoes of Focus, Lotus Crown, Sovereignty, Heartward Amulet, Pythagorem's Piece, Mantle of Discord.

Pros and Cons

SmiteFire & Smite

Smite is an online battleground between mythical gods. Players choose from a selection of gods, join session-based arena combat and use custom powers and team tactics against other players and minions. Smite is inspired by Defense of the Ancients (DotA) but instead of being above the action, the third-person camera brings you right into the combat. And, instead of clicking a map, you use WASD to move, dodge, and fight your way through the detailed graphics of SMITE's battlegrounds.
