Arachne Start

In the beginning of a conquest, place 3 of Arachne's Webs (3rd ability) down on one of the jungle camps while there is still a timer, before getting your yellow. The spiders will take the camp on their own getting you extra XP in the early game.

Some of these items are pure garbage on Arachne and you never want them.

You always want Protector over Seer of the Jungle. You make one of the BEST Jungle items in the game and throw it out of the window with Seer.

On the crit build Dominance 2nd item is worthless. You are running garbage pen so early on in the game where Wind Demon has more value. Also still get Golden Blade, especially on Arachne. Arachne has one of the worst Jungle clears where it is a MUST have.

My recommended build for Arachne is: Protector, Golden Blade, Vital Amp, Qins, Fer Exec, Serrated Edge, sell Golden Blade late for like bloodforge or something. Recipes are irrelevant.

Also start 3 but don't level her web until last. Your level order should be 1>2>4>3. Her 2 is an attack speed stim.

Dominance paired with Serrated and Demon Blade allows your autos to overcap percentage pen. I have Dom placed early in the build to help with mana in the early game.

Golden Blade first item is a well known starter for Arachne I didn’t feel the need to put it in both builds since selling it late game is common.

Leveling your 2 over your 3 sounds interesting though. I get why you would do that now but her attack speed stim didn’t used to be the whole duration which is why I didn’t think of that. Good idea.

Protector is indeed one of the best items in the game but Seer allows Arachne to shred any objective with or without help. If you’re losing and your jungle is constantly warded, Seer may be the better option. Either can be used with either build it is situational.

Thanks for the (aggressive) tips though. I welcome criticism.

Seer is good for objective shred and de-warding around Fire.

Just buy control wards. Objective shred shouldn’t be prioritized if you’re just gonna die on FG

Help!

I'm about a month into playing smite and I i was just getting the hang of it then then this year 10 update comes out and now some of my go to items are gone.

Would this build work in arena? I'm not much for conquest

Hey Chick,

Yeah, throws you for a loop, huh? Surprise, Year 10 let's change all the items around!!!

As you're new to the game, your matchups might allow you to have better than average success with Arachne in the arena mode, but typically, you wouldn't expect her to do all that well against stiffer competition. The problem is that her kit is centered around attacking individual targets. She's got a single target DoT (her 1), a very limited self-attack-speed stim w/ situational stun effect if only attacking a single target (her 2), a web that can release spiders that attack one specific target (her 3), and her ult...her ult is the only thing that hits in an AOE (potentially hitting more than one target), but it's also her only true means of escape from a dangerous situation, so you're not always using it for offense.

The reason you can basically tell this build is meant for Conquest is due to the presence of Golden Blade. That specific item is meant to help her farm the jungle efficiently, as her clear is very slow otherwise, again due to only being able to target one thing at a time.

IF you're insistent on playing her in Arena, I would probably suggest considering the following items in no specific order:
Now that's not going to help you in a build, so I'll give a couple full build examples. I'm not really including any starter/upgrades here because most of them see much better use in Conquest for her.
To see the best success in general, you'll want to be patient and wait for opportunities to engage without endangering yourself too much. You can be more aggressive when your ult is available, but otherwise, watch for enemy ability usage, and more specifically for enemies that have separated themselves. Once you're near full build and have high AS with both Qin's Sais and The Executioner, you actually become a pretty good tank killer, so you don't have to limit yourself at that point to squishy targets.

As a lifesteal item, you're likely to use Serrated Edge well, as you'll usually use all non-ult abilities on a single target when you engage, meaning you get a lot out of the passive. That said, Asi got a buff that makes it pretty appealing as a general lifesteal item for basic attackers.

Recommend getting Purification Beads and Blink Rune as your two relics. Blink will help you close the distance with a further enemy, since you don't have a dash / leap etc.

Let me know if you have any further questions.

It’s good but with the crit build you can’t solo fire giant due to being too tanky but shred most of the other jungle monster since crit is ridiculously op
