Introduction

Hello there!So you are looking for a strong Ao Kuang build huh?Then you came to the right place!My name is DarkRepulser and i main Ao Kuang.I was playing Ao Kuang before his "transform" into Kukulcan.I loved him at Mid lane but i play him at jungle currently since he's a totally new god.Some terms I'm going to use:

DPS : Damage Per Second
ATS : Attack Speed
OOM : Out Of Mana
AD : Attack Damage
AP : Ability Power
CCA : Crowd Control Abilitie(s)
[*] (hit proc items are the items that give your hit a bonus effect e.g. +40 magical damage)

Items

[*] Ao Kuang's build is very similar to Freya's,you need ats and items that proc with your hit(mostly).Lets take a look at his situational items.

Bancroft's Talon : Absolutely amazing item.Get it if they have strong dps.
Hastened Fatalis : Really nice item.You can OutPlay easily your enemy with this item because you can hit him and dodge his hits&spells at the same time!
Witchblade : Pick this if they have fed ad jungler or fed adc.
Spear of the Magus : If you are fed,then this is the best solution!Buy this item if you are fed and capable of carrying the game!


[*] Ok enough with the situational items,lets move to the active.
Girdle of the Inner Power : I pick this every time i get fed.It's really good if you want to carry.You can pick it also if they have tanky gods like: Bacchus , Guan Yu , Hercules or Sun Wukong.
Weaking Curse : This active is so AMAZING.Lets say they have a really fed Anubis who carries the game.The problem is that their Aphrodite or Chang'e keep healing him and we can't take him down.Buy this active and problem solved!
Greater Purification : This active is so damn good if they have hard cca.Example: Kumbhakarna , Sylvanus , Bacchus.
Enfeebling Curse : Their ad short lane god is fed?Their adc is fed?Their ad jungler is fed?You are ****ed up? :D Then buy Enfeebling Curse and save the day!

Skills

Ao Kuang is one of the strongest dps in the game if not the strongest!His Dragon Call(2) + the hit proc items = INSANE DPS :D
Also his Wild Storm(3) + King of the Eastern Seas(4) provide very strong burst.His Ultimate(4) can be used for assassination though.
His passive is what i like the most.It provides extra damage and when you are oom you drain charges of your passive instead if mana,to cast abilities.

Pros / Cons

PROS

[*] Insane DPS [*]
[*] He has CCA [*]
[*] Has an Ultimate that does % Damage(when its about to execute someone) [*]
[*] Has invisibility [*]
[*] Passive provides extra damage and helps when you are oom [*]
[*] Kinda cheap build [*]
CONS

[*] Pretty squishy [*]
[*] Really HARD to master [*]
[*] Somehow falls late game [*]

Creeping / Jungling

Ao Kuang's jungle is normal.Nothing to notice here :P

Team Work

Well in every team,team work is a MUST.Ao Kuang have to assassinate(like any Jungler)the 2 carries,the Ap or adc.The thing about Ao Kuang that makes him so special is that if you execute with your Ultimate,lets say,the adc you can jump right into their ap and do some heavy damage to him or even better kill him!

About me! :)

1. I think you mean Shoes of the Magi, not Boots of the Magi.
2. You kinda messed up the BB coding on the Pros and Cons.
3. You might want to replace things like Witchblade by Witchblade. Here is a guide on BB coding.
4. In the Skills section, I think you mean Dragon Call+ Wild Storm. Your King of the Eastern Seas should not be included into your burst combo.
5. Some grammar mistakes through the text.
6. The builds are simply too long. You need shorter versions of them, no need in showing what you should get before something else (P.E. Enchanted Spear into Bancroft's Talon into Spear of the Magus. Just show Spear of the Magus into Bancroft's Talon. No need for actives here, either. Don't show the starter items either. You just want an example of a finished build.
7. You should give more information about the items, like when to get the situational items,...
8. Telkhines Ring falls of late-game. You might want to consider selling it for something else.
Overall, a solid guide, but the coding and the explanation needs some more work. Won't upvote nor downvote.

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.
