Impossible to dodge missiles, each take ~30% HP - very balanced.

Any god seems OP when they're fed and UP when they're starved. as long as the Gods fit into that category, which xbia definitely does, then they're generally balanced. :) That isn't to say that this game is balanced though, but that's hard to achieve with a shifting meta and so many variables. I think they do a pretty good job considering.

Darts.

Ez=/= OP.

Keep your minions inbetween you and xbal and he wont hit you. Xbal is only dangerous very early game, fed or very late game. He is argueably the most snow balling god in smite but do to his lack of cc and the fact that his ult is so easy to counter that he is the fifth most picked adc competitivly out of the seven.

Fifth post picked= basicly never.

He is far from OP, he is a bit of a pub stomper and he is very easy to play.

BUT! Ez=/=OP
never forget dawngate and never forgive EA. Freia will hunt them for eternity.

Pub stomper is right. His basic attacks hit hilariously hard, that's basically it. I've had basics hit for nearly 1k damage with the red buff and both physical damage pots. He's kind of like Anhur, but without an ult that does absurd amounts of damage and a stun.



27/3/20. Fun game. I'm sure others have gotten higher with him though.

Yeah if you're having problems with Xbal, you're doing it wrong. But instead of saying "you're wrong" like most people so far, I'll try to explain why he's not overpowered.

First, the missles you're talking about could either be from Poison Darts or Rising Jaguar. If it's his darts, they hit only the first person it encounters, this is directly countered by being behind minions. If you're minions are near death, back off a bit. If it's from Rising Jaguar, they do more damage when you're poisoned from the darts. Avoid the darts and it won't hit as hard.

Remember that his Rising Jaguar is his CC immunity and his escape. If he uses that, and you're a rather aggressive-type god, engage on him. If you're not, try to engage, and use your own escape to back off afterwards.

Realize, also, that he falls off late game. His ult can be pretty nasty but it doesn't actively do any damage, his passive falls off hard as everyone gets items to catch up, and his steroid is...only moderate compared to others. He's a very good harasser in lane, but that's all he's got going for him.

Now don't get me wrong, he isn't bad, he'll do his job just fine. But there's a reason he wasn't in the 'triumvirate' of Apollo, Neith, and Anhur. He simply wasn't as good.

Now I don't know what god you were playing, you gave very little (badly worded) background, but the trick is to wait for him to try to harass, dodge the darts with minions, hope he jumps, and let your support use CC on him then. If your support does, he's a dead duck.
