  • Soul Gem (Shift)
    - “Soul Gem’s healing was unchanged in the healing pass, as we felt it was underperforming and remaining where it was could bring it into a good spot. However, it still underperforms where it was in Smite 1.
    - One major reason is that it didn’t consider ally god hits. We are fixing that, giving gods who can buff or heal themselves and allies a much easier way to stack, giving them more control over reaching the effect. With this change the healing may now be too easily available, so we are doing a rough approximation of the Healing Pass to its heal, but giving it more raw Intelligence to help it feel like a strong pick and further bolster the passive damage boost it can trigger.”
    - Adjusted so that it now considers abilities that hit allies for stacking.
    -- Stack Proc happens once per ability.
    -- Damage Proc happens once per target per ability.
    - Increased Intelligence: 40 -> 60

  • Daybreak Gavel (Shift)
    - “Daybreak Gavel and Soul Gem were already close in their raw effect, but with the change to Soul Gem they really occupy a very similar space. We are adjusting Daybreak to focus more on gaining raw Strength or Intelligence than bolstering just the next ability, separating it out from Soul Gem.”
    - Removed: On Ability Use: Consume all Stacks, this ability is +10% Strength and Intelligence scaling per stack (max 40%).
    - NEW: On Non-Healing Ability Use: Consume all Stacks, gaining +13 Strength or +16 Intelligence (based on highest item stat) for 8s per Stack (max 4)

    - Decreased Cooldown: 120s -> 80s

  • Totem Of Death (Buff)

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.
