Introduction

Hello! I'm Spectral Tangent and this is my first god guide. Smite is my first and only MOBA, and I've only been playing since late last year. However, I have come to really enjoy playing and I'd like to try and help other people out with what knowledge I have. I find myself mostly playing Arena games, so naturally this is an Arena guide. I would appreciate any feedback you have, and if you don't like/don't agree with anything, let me know! I plan to update regularly as things change and I will work to take other people's ideas and thoughts into consideration.

So let's get started! Geb, the god of earth, is a guardian. He has some very useful abilities and also the potential to deal some reasonable damage, for a guardian. He is best played as the team's primary tank.

Strengths
+Good amount of CC
+Able to escape
+Shield provides CC cleanse
+Very hard to kill late game
+It's really fun to roll around as a boulder
Weaknesses
-Short CC duration
-Takes a few seconds to start up escape
-Shield is only a CC cleanse
-Damage is limited by a percentage-based ultimate
-Weak early game

Changes


04/01/2016 - Guide published

Abilities


Passive: Hard as Rock
Geb takes less damage from criticals.

Rock Solid



Ability #1: Roll Out
Geb turns into a rolling boulder, gaining movement speed for three seconds and then gaining CC immunity. The ability stops on the first enemy hit, applying a slow and knocking them back if after the first three seconds. NOTE: the knockback is in the direction you are traveling. Be careful not to knock them away from your team if you are chasing.
Level this ability third.

Autobots...



Ability #2: Shock Wave
Geb deals damage and applies knockup to enemies in a wide cone in front of him. Enemies at the edge of the range take 50% damage, scaling from 100% next to Geb.
Level this ability first.

Crunchetize them!



Ability #3: Stone Shield
Geb applies a health shield to either himself or an allied god which cleanses CC when applied.
Level this ability second.

Saved Ya!



Ultimate: Cataclysm

Conclusion

So, that's what I have on Geb, God of the Earth! He is a very good guardian and has a lot of useful abilities for helping your team out in a fight! Please let me know thoughts and give me suggestions on anything to improve. If you think I'm missing anything, let me know! I'll do my best to keep making this guide better. Autobots, Roll Out!

Thanks, Bran! It means a lot, you are one of the main ones that made me want to make a guide in the first place. And yeah, I think I need to work on how the Gameplay section looks, try to make it less of a wall.

OMG Spec's got a guide! Okay, I'm going home right now (from work), so can't read everything right now, but oh, I have expectations, I do. I expect this to be well thought out, and I expect I'll upvote.

I did peek in the spoilers, and have one minor suggestion...especially for early game...it's just one big chunk of text. Possible to split them into a couple of paragraphs or something?

It's looking good from what I can see, but in fairness will withhold vote until I actually read.

Edit: Okay, read it all. Familiar feeling, yet unique. Very clean BB Coding, doesn't seem like your first guide at all. In particular, I like HOW you describe everything. Fairly concise, but informative with a loose, comfortable feeling. And your level of understanding is great for the short amount of time you've been playing. I still don't know some mechanics of the game or certain gods very well.

Great job, if it wasn't understood above, +1.
