Scale down Zeus's Chain Lightning, maybe make it so it can only hit each enemy one time.

Remove the speed from Aegis Shield.

Detonate Charge I feel is fine.

Lightning Storm could use something too. I feel it's a bit too strong. Comparing it to Cupid's Field of Love, Field of Love can do some hefty damage and possibly add a short stun. In my experience I usually have to follow up with Heart Bomb and then Flutter to keep them from escaping.
Lightning Storm has the capability to do more damage, slow and mortally wound or kill an enemy, just by itself and Detonate Charge.

I agree on the chain lightning but on the speed of aegis shield I don't agree. it gives some protections and aplies a charge but that's not good for some sort of escape.

you just made a big escape. comparing a mage ability too a hunter ability. A mage is known for burst without heavy burst a mage will be nothing.

if you get hit by Cupid you will take 540 (+100%) damage. When hit by Zeus ult you gain 180 (+50%) each time hit. That ends up for an total of 900 (+250%) okay that's a lot but I have never been hit more then 3-4 times so that's only 540-720 (+150%-200%) (being mostly 3 times 4 is really rare).

when you go and look at Ra he has an ult that does 700 (+100%) or He Bo with 690 (+115%) damage. So don't compare a mage too a hunter.

oh and Lightning Storm doesn't slow the Detonate Charge has the slow when you have been hit 3 times.

Still since they removed the stun for a slow on Detonate Charge I don't find Zeus that strong anymore. kinda made him go from OP to more balanced.

I knew about the Detonate Charge, but it depends on how you use the ult. Using him now, if backed up by the enemy, you can use Lightning Storm behind them or on them, and usually I get 3 hits off if not 4. Especially if you put a small burst of energy forward and push them back, it's not too hard to get three charges on a couple of them.

As for Ra, yes it does more damage but I was using Fields Of Love as a quick AoE ultimate off the top of my head, which He Bo and Ra don't have. Regardless thanks for the advice and I won't compare Hunter's to Mages in the future.

Edit: Looking back I probably should have used Poseidon's Release The Kraken! as an example, but oh well. Live and learn.

I guess he is a little strong

I got a quad kill with a pure all attack speed build. Gotta go fast!

But I see so many people suck with him it's not funny. He is barely below Nemesis in terms of how much I see people suck with a god.

Please remove He Bo from this game. Even if he is not fed, he does 600+ damage on a 3 second cooldown. That's totally balanced amirite? can't wait for Smite to die once Gigantic comes out.

Gigantic doesn't seem like it'll be a really big hit. I mean it'll have a sizeable fanbase sure, but its not gonna kill any other games.
