This build has a ton of health but basically no protections (outside of an assumed Sentinel's Embrace upgrade).

Mail of Renewal is just not a good item right now, which is why HR has stated they plan to rework this.

Basically, build like this and expect any reasonably knowledgeable enemy to counter build with anti-heal and shut your sustain down. You'll also get blown up by Qin's Sais, Soul Reaver, Ethereal Staff, etc.

Okay thank you for your input, I haven’t looked much on the new starter items yet. I’ll also be sure to add some protections. Thank you

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.
