Intro

What's up guys I am Darkwele I am a competitive player in Smite and also a streamer.
I just picked up Vulcan and decided he is quite OP. I continue to build him as a support as he has terrible magic power ratios with his turrets. But I do allow for some MP to go through since Ethereal Staff goes really well with the healthy build along with a Rod of Tahuti. The whole build is based around being really tanky to survive tanking towers and allowing your team to benefit early from how much damage Vulcan puts out.
I will be adding more later please like this build and check out my stream to see if I make any sudden changes.

Item Build and why I build this way.

First off you will take 1 rank in Reinforced Boots with a Meditation and Hand of the Gods (for support jungleing purposes early game) and 3 health and 3 mana potions. Make sure you max out your Reinforced Boots first.

Then start to build a Void Stone for the extra Magical Protection and some Magical Power. Also since you are melee your turrets will gain the penetration on the enemy when you are close to them with your Void Stone passive.

Next Build a Ethereal Staff, with the build you are running you will gain about 3.4k health and all of that will manage to convert to Magical Power.

Next build Sovereignty it will give you more magical (+20) and a lot of physical protection (+85).

After the Sovereignty build a Bulwark of Hope for the health and more Magical Protection. The passive on this also makes it why it is on this build, with how aggressive I play I enjoy having some extra protection with the 50% less damage taken for 2 seconds.

Finally just build a Rod of Tahuti for extra Magical Power. It also stacks with the Ethereal staff that you picked up earlier.
