 Unbound Runes is very important to the Dog. When at full runes, each of your ability gains a special power-up sort of thing. Whenever you are going to gank a lane, you MUST have every single rune. So make sure to always stop at a camp and charge up your runes before ganking.

 Unchained is a jump. If it hits enemy gods the cooldown is halved, and when at full runes it stuns for 1 second. When you gank, this is the ability you want to use(at full runes, of course). Make sure to hit an enemy and stun them, after which it can easily be combined with  Ragnarok to bring the enemy towards your teammate or into a tower.

 Seething Howl is great later in the game. Early game it isn't as good because the buff only works for basic attacks, and since  Fenrir is more ability reliant early game, you wont need this until later in the game. This is good for clearing camps, or for when you're low on health and need to return to the fight quick.

This ability... oh boy, this thing is THE thing! It is your best ability that not only does MASSIVE DAMAGE, but latches on to the enemy! Whenever an enemy is low, use this to finish them off, or if they have full health, this is also a great way to initiate. Early game, this is your best camp clearing ability. To successfully use this to clear, hit the buff monster (or big harpy at the exp camps) a few times until your runes are charged, then pop this ability and watch the chaos. |
|
|
This is yet another great ability, whenever there is a teamfight in lane, I always grab either the tankiest person with this or the highest bursting god, and pull them into tower. This is a great way to follow up an Unchained stun, since they are much much easier to grab when stunned. Along with being the greatest pull in the game, it also makes you CC immune, so this is a great escape from a fight with an enemy with a lot of CC.

Unchained to stun the enemy, and either Brutalize them, or use Ragnarok to drag them to your team. ALWAYS gank the people who are having the most trouble, it doesn't matter if it's a 3v2 in duo, if they are doing fine and your mid is dying, GANK MID FIRST! NEVER let your team die, as it results in them falling off too. Seething Howl to kill camps, since the buff and lifesteal it gives helps you clear camps a lot faster than the other jungler. Basically, that's the only change. You should still be ganking in the same way, etc. etc. Unchained, then pulling the tank to your team with Ragnarok. From there, Brutalize everyone, stun with Unchained whenever you have full runes, and use Seething Howl for some lifesteal if you start to die. Hopefully, if luck is on your side, you will win the fight. From there try for fire giant, push as much as you can, and WIN!!!
Defensive WardingOffensive WardingOne of your main duties as a jungle is to protect your team from being ganked. Usually your teammates will be warding their lanes, but sometimes they are unable to, most likely due to them not having enough gold after buying an item. So it is your duty to ward for them, or if they have all warded, in one of the spots shown above.

Thank you!!!
@Wolfman & @Branmuffin,
Firstly I like the guide, its layout and design are really nice and the tips overall are insightful. However, there are quite a few things that I cannot agree with as an experienced jungler.
- Not starting with
Bumba's Mask and potion of physical might There are several reasons why your start isn't as effective during the first 5 minutes of the game, which is especially important for 
Fenrir since this is when he's at his most potent.
- You're worsening both your jungle clear, sustain and gold sharing without
Bumba's Mask. Since you're intended to share the early buffs with your solo laner, and the mid/back camps with your mid laner, you will fall far behind in gold from the enemy jungler. On top of that, you will have to back earlier without the heal from bumbas, have a harder time clearing allowing them to spend more time helping their allies than you, as well as counter-jungle as well.
- Finally, not starting with potion of physical might means you will be less powerful than the enemy jungler during early engages, and
Fenrir should always be more potent than the enemy jungler in early engages (with the exception of maybe 
Thor and 
Thanatos). You will be unable to contest mid camps effectively, and have a much reduced early game presence without it.
- Building
Mystical Mail before 
Warrior Tabi. Full boots are ESSENTIAL for every jungler. They roam the map more than any other player, and without them you will be wasting a LOT of time moving around that you could be using ganking or clearing camps.
- Not building
Jotunn's Wrath early. This is easily 
Fenrir's best item, and 25% CDR means a lot more ultis and ganks during the beginning of the game when less people have likely purchased beads. While you can build protections first, I'd recommend this no less than 3rd item, if not 2nd. To quote you "Basically, this build is made to excel in late game with damage, and be hard to kill early game." This shouldn't be the case, and it doesn't have to be! Early game you out-dps almost every god in the game, take advantage of that.
- On the topic of dps, you won't be doing much of anything without some form of penetration. I'd grab either
Titan's Bane or 
The Executioner depending on how many basic attacks you can land given the enemy team comp. 
The Executioner works better with 
Rage though.
- Finally, as Branmuffin did indeed mention, while physical protection is more valuable, if you're building tanky you need some magical as well. I'd recommend either
Spirit Robe or 
Hide of the Urchin.
As a sort of personal preference side-note, you don't necessarily need to level up your ult more than once until your final levels since the damage difference isn't really all that much. Regardless, that's not a huge change to your dps either way.With all that said, a final build could look something like this:
I know there's no
You do realize at the very start it says NOT FOR JUNGLE?
Secondly ,your builds, If your first build ,"Basic Dog" , is for solo lane iam guessing that is not the best build , you will be shut easily from solo lane , iam X
Yes you need defense but not that kind, if you see his kit ,early -mid game you need damage , late game you are basically a bruiser dog that just wants to poke the squishes and get out . Your solo lane build should be like
The basic dog build is a build I use for all gamemodes, as I don't usually solo
Firstly , iam new in smitefire, so seeing this kind of guides amazes me , could you please tell me how to keep that drop down column you have done for
Secondly ,your builds, If your first build ,"Basic Dog" , is for solo lane iam guessing that is not the best build , you will be shut easily from solo lane , iam X
Yes you need defense but not that kind, if you see his kit ,early -mid game you need damage , late game you are basically a bruiser dog that just wants to poke the squishes and get out . Your solo lane build should be like
Starter :
Death toll (If you have a burst damage enemy solo lane partner , like Zeus , Bellona , Chaac )
Bluestone Pendant ( If you are lanned against a squishy , like hel ,Aphro , Ravana , Odin)
3 health potions
3 Multi Potions
From there your core items should be : Warrior Tabi : Jotuns wrath : Runeforge Hammer (if physical ) Pestilence (If healer) Ancile ( If magical)
Then your damage should be : Titans bane : Executioner : FrostBound hammer : Rage/Deathbringer get only one crit item , you dont need 2 of them
Incase of defense you need : Stone of gaia : Midgardian mail ( Not mystical mail on fenrir , not at all) Void stone : Runic Shield .
Usual final build should be a)Against physical : Warrior Tabi : Jotuns Wrath : Mail of renewal : Frost Bound hammer : Stone of gaia : Executioner /titans bane .
b) Against Magical : Warrior tabi : Jotuns wrath : Ancile/pestilence : Frostbound hammer : Midgardian mail : Executioner /titans bane
As a jungler , you never want all that defence , Because you will have more Tank potential but zero assassination potential, which a jungler never does. Tanking is the work of the solo lanner not jungler .
So jungler start : Bumbas Mask , Power pot , 2 health potions , 3 mana potions
Usual build : Warrior Tabi , Jotuns Wrath , Mail of renewal , Titans Bane , SHifters shield , Executioner/Frost bound hammer.

Also, zilby and bran, I plan on removing the basic dog build and adding more builds for different situations (magical jungle, tanky team, etc.).
