@BurningNad perhaps it'd be best to pick up some people from GAF!

Mercury seems a fun god, with a good kit, compensated by the fact he is very weak early game.

Not too impressed with Mercury's design (he looks like a more detailed minion to me), but he looks fun to play.

Had time to do a practice arena match. He's really fun. He hits pretty damn hard and catching and tossing people with his 3 is going to be super useful.

What affects mastery level? I thought I had to get a god to adept to level up but that didn't work. Is it the next worshipper rank after that?
GuitarAtomik
Member
Pretty sure it's the next level. You should have a gold lion symbol to signify it. The new stats screen makes it a lot easier to figure out where you are.
BurningNad
Member
Yeah, I'm pretty sure it goes like (unranked) > Neophyte > Adept > Master Level 1.
Anyway, I love Thanatos. You have to be really careful with him and always be sure you can kill someone when you join the fight but it's so satisfying to kill people with his abilities, especially his ult.
I haven't given Mercury much time, he seems pretty boring to me. Meh. That's okay though, I'll save my favor for another god, though the recolors that come out with new ones have been pretty blah lately.

He seems pretty fun from the practice matches I've put in with him. Still haven't tried him in an actual game yet. But man, is his design extremely meh. Especially after on point the new characters and re-works have been.
Something closer to this:
...would have been a lot more interesting or iconic. Even something closer to this which is really close to what they did:
...is better and evokes more of a "Godly" design. As it's been mentioned here and a lot on the Reddit page, Mercury right now just looks like a Super Minion. Not sure what happened there.

Lol, no. Not even close. Maybe it could be called the best MOBA community, but let's be honest — the bar is set extremely low in that regard. It's certainly better than the Dota 2 community, but I also only play Arena/Domination and people are generally more chilled out because they aren't as big of a commitment as Conquest.
I'd say Team Fortress 2 had/has the best online community.
Hah, that's exactly how I felt when I first saw him.

Thanks! I'm at 4 gods mastered, working on getting the prerequisite to open up the conquest mastery mode.

Smite doesn't have a bot mode for 5v5 Conquest. They only have them for 1v1 Joust, and 5v5 Arena in the Practice tab. The bots at the moment are pretty trash and are really only there to give you a little practice in how the mechanics work and to give you a little testing ground for Gods you're not familiar with. Hopefully they'll improve them eventually but I doubt it will be any time soon.

If you've played LoL a lot, you should be ok. I never played a MOBA before Smite and I got the hang of it pretty quick. Just play practice Arena to get a good feel for the gods, and practice Joust to get a good idea of what simple laning and jungling is like. Then maybe play some real Arena to get a a real idea of what it's like to play against other people. Arena is quick and people aren't as crazy about winning because of it. You'll be matched with low level people around your experience anyway. If you're still not feeling comfortable, play some Assault. It's all random all mid and you'll get some experience attacking and defending towers but people won't be as mad about whether or not you're good since everyone will be getting random gods they may or may not know. Then graduate to Conquest. Keep in mind, though the matchmaking isn't the greatest, you will be paired up with people around your level pretty consistently who will be in the same boat as you. Give it a chance.

HEL, GODDESS OF THE UNDERWORLD
New Hel skin (finally!) witha few minor tweaks to her kit.
Re-worked God: Hel
General
PASSIVE - Stance Attunement
- Hel has received a complete visual makeover with an all new model, animations and fx.
- Using abilities in one stance no longer places a cooldown on abilities in the other stance.
- A bug was fixed that was giving Hel the passive benefits or her ultimate earlier than intended. You must now train rank 1 of her ultimate to receive the MP5 or Magical Power benefits.
Decay
- When Hel is in a stance, she gradually attunes to the strengths of that stance, gaining up to +20% damage in the Dark Stance and +20% healing in the Light Stance.
Restoration
- Cast time before the projectile spawns was increased from 0.25s to 0.3s
- Damage reduced from 80/140/200/260/320 to 70/120/170/220/270
- Magical power scaling reduced from 60% to 50%
Repulse
- Damage reduced from 80/140/200/260/320 to 70/120/170/220/270
- Magical power scaling reduced from 60% to 50%
- Healing changed from 50% of damage done to 50/95/140/185/230
Inspire
- Cast time before the damage occurs increased from 0.4s to 0.55s
- Damage reduced from 100/160/220/280/340 to 80/130/180/230/280
- Magical power scaling reduced from 80% to 70%
- The mana cost changed from 70/75/80/85/90 to 60/65/70/75/80
Switch Stances
- Healing reduced from 70/110/150/190/230 to 60/90/120/150/180
- Magical power scaling reduced from 60% to 50%
- The speed bonus now scales with rank from 20% at all ranks to 10/12.5/15/17.5/20%
- The mana cost changed from 70/75/80/85/90 to 60/65/70/75/80
- Half of the benefits gained from this ability are now shared to all allies within a 30 unit radius of her.

Lol, I see they gave Hel the skank treatment. Is Artemis the only female god left who doesn't look like a porn star?

Lol. To be fair, Athena and Chang'e are still pretty tasteful, even though they did try to sex Athena's character card up before everyone freaked out about it and they changed it again.

the other night was a nightmare ... Isis, Fenir and Chronos with I'm assuming fist of gods on each. Completely shut down Thors 3 ability ... Three of them working together could make it so you couldn't move for 5 sec or longer AND shut down abilities

Yaeh lol. I used to worry I was never going to make it to 30 before beta ended because I wanted the Cacodemon skin. Now I do not lol. I remember hearing they used to say they'd officially launch after they had 40 Gods, but they'll be up to 44 tomorrow and seem to be in no rush to launch any time soon. I imagine they wont until they catch up with improving all the UI stuff, targeters, model updates, etc.
Sun WuKong live stream is supposed to start around 4pm Eastern today btw.
