God Aspect De-Activated

Aspect of the Tollkeeper

Passive coins are pulled to you while in assist range. Damnation no longer applies an attack speed slow or Shield. Instead, it summons a soul on enemy gods hit that deals damage when you hit them. Once for attacks, three times for abilities. Spectral Surge refreshes the duration of the soul but does not Silence.

Cutting comments short here.

6 points in your 3, 4 in your ult. Fix that please.

Won't talk too much on items, but don't build Prophetic 5th. Build it pretty early or not at all.

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.
