Introduction

Hey everyone my name is "Freky" and I wanted to share my Apollo arena build with you all. If there are any questions or suggestions please leave a comment so I can either update the build or yell at you and tell you you're dumb :P

Pros / Cons

Pros

    Ranged
    Attack Speed
    Very Mobile
    Mesmerize

Cons
    Squishy
    Not the best damage until late game

I'm sure there are more cons but I can't think of any right now :)

Gameplay

YOU ARE NOT AN INITIATOR!!!!

It's plane and simple, Save your 2 and 3 skill for trying to escape UNLESS it's a 1 on 1 situation.

At the start of the game you want to stay back and try not to be targeted. You are very squishy so always try to stay behind your tanks. You don't do much burst damage but you have a lot of sustain and that's where Apollos' attack speed comes in handy. Get Frostbound Hammer for both health and slowing down the enemy while you hit them that way you're not always trying to catch up to them.

Other then that just play smart.

Summary

Guide is a WIP so please be patient I will add more like skills break down and actual gameplay videos and screenshots. If there are any suggestions please feel free to comment.

Standard Physical Carry build. Not much, but meh. WIP no problem. Add some more sections and go a bit more in depth and we might just have a winner.

A smite player of my acquaintances list on Smite always says Meh. Even if he raged he typed MEH in caps. But by my definition this guide is the so far decently meh guide on smitefire.

Ya it's a pretty basic arena build but I have a couple other builds I'm going to add on as well this weekend.

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.
