About the Build

This build is for ARENA! The point of this build is to do a "hit-and-run" tactic. This tactic is all about getting in dealing tons of damage to an enemy god, while able to escape the horde of mad gods running at you. If played well (and with a decent team) it will be troublesome for the enemy heroes to land hits on you. This build is so much FUN to play, making each kill more exciting than the next! This high damage build as brought close games in the beginning of the match to a quick end for the enemy gods.

+ Pros +


High damage
Perfect attacking speed
Get to play a tricky sneaky god
Puts fear into your enemies
Great escape
FUN TO PLAY

- Cons -
Low defense
Horrible in team fights
Awful against 2 or more gods hugging each other

Combos
This section of the build will relay on you knowing what you can and can't do with your tricky self. For the build you will mostly only go for gods with low to medium defense, things such as Hunters or another Assassins or if you feel like you can (with another teammate) take on high defense targets. Once you have picked a target you will mostly be doing 3-4-1 using 1 as an escape or to finish off the enemy hero. If the enemy hero is getting away will low health you can do a 1-3. When no enemy heroes are around or you are by yourself use your 2 on creeps to gain extra xp and gold. Once you get to know and understand your limits you could go full out using 2-1-3-4. Using your 2 on the enemy then spending your 1 and 3 quickly will give your 4 more power and finally using the 4 where you placed your 2 giving you an extra damage hit.

DO with Loki
Still close to your team
Use 2 to get rid of creeps
Look for a weak god to rush
Look for a wondering god to rush
ESCAPE if you are hit by a CC or slowed

DON'T with Loki
Hug your teammates
Use 1 to clear creeps
Go for 3 or more enemy gods grouped
Go for a Tank without help

I want to thank: TaintedMx he was the original creator of this build. He has more info about this build and has other builds for Loki. I would recommend his builds and guides 100%.

(About me: I have been playing Smite for about 3 weeks and saw a build for a jungle Loki. I wanted to create a quick, fast, and reliable Loki build. If there is any improvements PLEASE let me know, I am all ears ready to learn about Loki and be a better Smite player. Thanks for using the build and any help given to me.)

Thanks for the help guys! I was not thinking about having to stay in the fight longer using the basic attacks. I will be totally be checking out the different things you guys have mention and seeing how it plays.

Better yet, don't get ANY attack speed items. The only two I could think of are situationals - Witchblade or maybe Winged Blade. If your objective is to "hit-and-run", you don't want to stay in the fight to deal your x amount of damage over 5 basic attacks. Instead, you want to deal that same amount of damage in 1 or 2 basics/abilities and get out of there.

Because of this reason, you instead want to be building stats like CDR and penetration. Heartseeker is fine on him but I wouldn't really recommend stacking items in arena. That's up to you of course. However, pretty much every other item should not be a core for him. Lifesteal isn't effective on him I'm the same way; you're not staying in the fight to continue to heal up over time, you just kill and get out.

A more rounded arena Loki build would be something like: Warrior Tabi, Jotunn's Wrath, Titan's Bane, magi's blessing, and Hydra's Lament or a situational.

If you need any extra help or guidelines, feel free to use my Loki guide as an example if you want to check it out. Good luck!

For the same effect but better swap out hastened Fatalis for Qin sais and Devos gloves for jotunns wrath and buy sprint 3... That's what I do when I mess around with an attack speed Loki cause sprint 3 gives the same effect as Fatalis while wins passive is affected by Lokis passive. Also I wouldn't build heartseeker in arena build either hydras lament for more cdr or transcendence for the power without losing stacks
