What I build:

, Warlock's Sash, , , , and . This is what I build in Joust, which is where I excel at the most.

I think poly will be the best thing because at 60 stacks warlock's sash makes the magical power 900 and there is still 40 more stacks to go. This is when you have purchased all these items.

But Kuku is more an ability based rather than AA. Poly would work on him, sure, but it does on pretty much every mage, although imo there's way better items to put in that slot in Kuku's case.

Poly's actually pretty good on him. It's best to consider as a lifesteal option that can provide an extra burst of damage...just because it procs on basic attacks doesn't mean it's best for basic attackers. It's actually most functional for gods that build for high damage, and have abilities that need to be up closer.

A good example is the physical version of this.... Which god is it best on? . And he's definitely ability-based.

It's actually a perfect boost of damage after using ...Zeph is more close-medium range, which means you're in range for a basic attack followup...and it's easier to confirm because the ability slows the enemy. Combine that with the low CD (7 seconds WITHOUT CDR) and you can actually have it proc pretty often.

I don't know where everybody gets it that is ability based. Sure, you use 1 and 3 to increase damage, and not be seen, but in the end you are still basic attacking the enemy.

You don't even need to activate abilities on him to get kills quick and easily.

Yes, isn't useless on him, but since you're mostly using only your 1 and 3, sometimes 4, and not basic attacking, the entire passive of is lost most of the time. The 75 power can be gained from other, more benefitial items. The mana practically isn't necessary since you already have and Warlock's Sash, and the lifesteal, there's better options. gives more lifesteal and even more power, can counter healing and since your 3 has a relatively wide range it isn't that hard to proc.

can be used on him, but if you're considering it for gods that go for high damage and need the lifesteal for up close, there are better options. 25 power extra on for only 100 gold more, and 2% extra lifesteal at that, and a passive that is really great in combo with your Ultimate.

Besides, 's width is very limited. Your chances of missing are usually greater than hitting it. The slow on the being able to follow up with a basic attack is purely situational.

Sorry Zero, that's just not accurate. You should be hitting 3/4 of the time unless you're burning it on unreliable poke damage at max range. Its speed and width make it a reliable attack if you have the mechanical skill to match it (the main problem is actually the delay). Additionally, you can use to activate and then do an auto-attack cancelled a lot of the time giving you a huge dps bonus with poly, especially around 5th item. To look at it comparatively:
Using a fairly standard build ( -> -> -> -> -> ) A + + basic attack with in place of does 2184 damage at its maximum 200 power (a rare scenario). in this scenario does 2452 damage. Every time. This damage difference only increases with red buff, fg buff, power pots, etc.

PERSONALLY though I prefer since you don't really need the lifesteal all that much and it lets you guarantee your ultimate far more often.

Regarding he's ability based because the most efficient way to maximize his damage output is by maximizing his ability damage (ie: power/penetration > attack speed/crits). The fact that you need to activate his abilities by auto attacking only necessitates the need for 1-2 auto attacks, which is all it should really take regardless (when you consider that his ulti combo typically uses 3 abilities and 2 autos, I think that gets the point across).

If you want info, read my guide, or read Greenevers': http://www.smitefire.com/smite/guide/the-lowkey-god-4815

is absolutely ability-based...he's got so much burst damage in any of his abilities + the passive from 1 basic attack. He's too squishy to box much. His ability scaling on his , and are 100% or higher, which means building power + pen. That burst from Aimed + Assassinate means you want it up as much as possible, which means CDR. And you absolutely need to activate abilities to get kills quickly...if you don't, and you rely on just basic attacks, you're likely to die pretty quickly.

I'm not sure what you're talking about with regard to the passive being great in combo with KKK's ult...they don't seem to have anything in common. 2% lifesteal isn't really anything at that point, but sure, the passive power increase if you're hurt isn't bad.

I'd say that for the most part, people in practice with should be pretty adept at hitting their targets. Just my opinion. But is Poly core? Maybe not...but it's a good item for him.

Well, to me, ability based is if you deal damage with the ability itself.

's abilities usually do nothing, unless you basic attack after activing them, so I see as a basic attack god.

1. Book of Thoth is not just some "extra damage" on Kukulkan, it's his most important core item due to the way its passive stacks with Kuku's passive.

2. By not including Polynomicon in your Kuku build, you're missing out on over

700

free, easy, instant damage, every 5 seconds. Kuku has the absolute highest core power in the game, topping out at 1000 with the proper build not including buffs or potions, making him the most effective user of Polynomicon in the game.

1. Its known that Kukulkan's passive + Book of Thoth mana+ the stacks you gain from the item itself is a huge core item for his build,but, you're missing the point behind "Soul Reaver".
2. The item itself is a core item (and I find it more important) because the item offers you 300 mana that used into Kukulkan's passive + the massive eff of it that can deal a great damage
3. Again, by not including Polynomicon I miss basiclly nothing and if you find me wrong I would like to see a picture of it, video or even exp in live. :)
4. If you still think that I should add polynomicon, which item should be replaced by it ?
And most of all - thnx for the comment :)

To build Polynomicon is a mistake (in my eyes) because you can have a better item with a better eff than this one+ Kukulkan don't need lifesteal
