Introduction

Hey everyone! I'm OMGASIA, casual Smite addict. While I know how to enjoy all casual game modes, I mostly play Assault. I aim to get basic guides up for new Gods as they are released so there is a starting point for players who weren’t able to test them on the PTS. This isn't meant to be a definitive end all be all on Jing Wei. This is the way I've enjoyed playing her so far, and possibly others will enjoy as well!

Without further ado, here's Jing Wei!


I have to say, she is absolutely adorable.

Ch-Ch-Ch-Ch-Changes!

If you don't get the section title reference, please insert some Bowie into your life.

Jing Wei had a few changes on the live client! These are the same changes that were on the PTS.
View the full patch notes here.

General changes:



Base Physical Power per level increased from 2.5 to 2.7.

Fixed an issue where her passive would not activate when leaving the fountain in Assault.


Persistent Gust



Increased attack speed buff from 25% to 20/25/30/35/40% per rank.

Increased duration of attack speed buff from 5s to 7s.


Explosive Bolts



Fixed an issue with this ability providing ammo without going on cooldown.


Agility



Using Agility from the ground now removes basic attack movement penalty for 3s.

Increased buff duration from 5s to 6s when Agility is used from the air.


Air Strike



Increased damage from 200/280/360/420/500 to 220/310/400/490/580.

Increased landing range from 40 to 55.

Pros and Cons

Pros: Cons:
  • Most of her damage is very reliant on basic attacks which may be hard for some players.

  • Her ultimate is easy to dodge if the enemy is paying attention.

  • Her mobility makes it really easy to get overconfident and put yourself in a tight spot.

  • I'm pretty sure she's not 18. Just sayin'.

She looks like she's having so much fun!

Ninja Tabi > Jotuun's Wrath > Odysseus' Bow > Titan's Bane > Rage > Deathbringer.

It makes her monstrous.

In conquest: Ninja Tabi, Transcendence, Jotuun's, Odysseus Bow, Rage, Deathbringer.

no need to stack with her bc her damage is good with out it if u can get all hits in. ur after ur crit with full build crit about 467-667 also with transcendent u hit 500-667 so ur doing same amount of damage. but u also gotta think is there more then 1 person stacking in ur team? no/yes really all depends on if u should stack or not in my opinion don't wanna have 2-3 people stacking etc..etc. If u wanna stack go for it but i see no use in stacking with her she reckts minions and gods just fine all u gotta do is know what to do and when and if ur good with her anything will work for yea :D. When pope ur 2 then pop ur 1 after that pop ur 3 after u run into ur 1 then u have great speed with atk plus the movement speed for like 5-6 secs u can pretty much take on anything lol

I play mostly Assault, so I likely won't have her up high soon. I have 4 diamonds but I tend to just level masteries by chance. I do try to get each god to Mastery 1 when they come out just so I understand them better, though.


Best thing about her for new people she is like harry houdini a Escape artist :D

Help...
I don't know how to play Jing Wei

Nothing in her kit feels smooth... She needs to cc herself and/or waste her escape before engaging in a fight. Both ability can potentially put her in an unfavorable position. Her ult is impossible to land due to the long wind up time.

I especially hate the Persistent Gust ability. It's hard to hit the enemy with it due to the tiny radius and long wind up time. Using it on herself is even more paradoxical. If you use it when enemies are close by. It's free poke/kill for your enemy because you cc'd yourself. If you use it when enemies are far. They can just keep distance with you and you just wasted an ability.

I know her passive is awesome/op and maybe that's why HiRez gave her a ****py kit but I just can't play her well.

All she's good for (to me at least) is playing co-op (medium) bots... She's great firefighter when my team needs baby sitting and I can always keep my build online with her passive. I can end a conquest with all bots partners very quickly. Enemies bots were only able to reach level 14~17. Which is an impossible task for any other gods due to how bad the bot teammate sucks. (This was before the golden bow nerf though)

How long is this going to stay updated?


Generally I keep release guides updated for initial changes. For Jing Wei that was this patch. I'll keep the guide up as long as it is still relevant. Once the information contained is no longer relevant I'll archive the guide, but you can still access it from any of my current guides via the links in the "More Guides" section. Usually by that time more guides have come out that help players more than mine.

Love the guide and the builds, both pretty solid. The only thing I did differently was use wind demon situationally and changed the order a bit. I prefer to go Rage or Golden Bow.


I can't take any credit for the builds. Both were from the post on Reddit as linked in that section.
