DISCUSSION What gods have little to no chance of making it?

30 Upvotes

We talk about characters who have a high chance of coming and who we really want but what are some who you think will NEVER be added or have near 0 chance?

My picks are:

Ame no Minakanushi - not many people know about the gods before Izanagi and Izanami

Eros - conflated with Cupid most of the time

Phobos and Deimos - too similar so only 1 would make it unless they're 2 in one like Olo and Morri

Shub (the GOO black Goat) - the name alone disqualifies unless they change it

Edun - not much you can do with a goddess who grows immortality apples

Olokun - a dev already said they thought Oshun was too similar to Yemoja even if we have 8 sun gods and 15 different death gods

Ville and Ve - Odin's lesser known brothers who helped shape the cosmos

Borr - Odin's father, not much to work with

Rhea - Queen of the Titans, she really doesn't have that much to work with

Apophis - this was asked long ago and I think one of the old devs said something about him looking too similar to Jorm

Frigga - conflated with Freya and not much to work with

SUGGESTION Mulan's banner should go into the interaction slot

60 Upvotes

The banner should not occupy a consumable slot, especially when other consumable items are generaly superior in most cases. And it's SO annoying when it automatically appears when you back, so it requires me to close the shop window, place it down and then open it again just to get rid of it.

Please rework it so that it goes into the interaction slot, the same way Mordred uses his dash. That would fix both problems. And I think we all agree this shouldn't be considered a buff at all, more like a QoL change - the banner is just.. meh.

HELP Hel Aspect bug (hopefully)?

3 Upvotes

I was almost fully attuned (around 95%) for my dark stance and probably only 60-70% for my light stance. Switched to my light stance and hit an enemy with light 1 which did damage and I guess fully attuned my dark stance, but I was locked in my light stance for the rest of the game. I guess it's because I was in the light stance when it happened.

Surely this isn't intended?

Relic slot should just use the active item key system

10 Upvotes

Small QoL feature that shouldn't bother me as much as it does. but I'm hoping gains some traction that leads to change.

Currently the relic key is it's own thing that only supports base relics. So once you upgrade the relic it becomes an active item that then uses one of the 3 active item slots and their keybinds, and can never use the relic key again. The relic keybind feels vestigial now in smite 2. A relic of an older design. Pun intended.

We should just have 4 active item keys, with the base relic using an active item keybind. That way when a base relic gets upgraded it doesn't get forced to use a different key. Of course if there isn't a built in safe guard to prevent 4 actual active items from being built there needs to be. I don't see why someone would forgo a relic to build 4 active items, but my proposed change would open up an abuse case without a safe guard.

and while we are on the subject of changing keys. Curios should default to active item slot 3, or 4 with my propose change. I'm tired of moving it every game to the last slot. If i don't change it, my 2nd active item gets put on active item key 3, and then my 3rd active item overrides the curio and put on active item slot 2, and that's not the order i built them and completely messes me up. So I move the curio to slot 3 right now, AT THE START OF EVERY DAMN MATCH AND IT'S ANNOYING!

Thanks for reading.

Hatchiman woes

6 Upvotes

So base Hatchi adc, what do you build? I've tried ability, attack speed, crit, and speed/pen and it all feels kind of...weak. Had a match earlier where I felt like I was doing a pretty good job, hitting all my buttons, farming well, got first 2 kills, etc. but after a few levels the opposing Sol was just absolutely frying me at the same level, like not even close.

He's kind of fun to play, but I need to figure out what to build that won't make him feel underpowered.

Hi guys! I am looking for a solid bruiser build for warriors (or what they used to be)! Seems like no matter how I build, I get out-tanked and out-damaged by other bruisers. Looking for strength scaling. Thanks so much.

So you can play as Mehrunes Dagon.. Sheogorath, these beings. And if you argue only realistic gods, that's out the window.

Losing a game because of an item effect not working is one of the worst feelings ever. I literally used obsidian dagger at like 400 hp and killed myself it genuinely showed up as my killing myself. We lost that game because the team crumbled after my death. Smite devs need to fix their game.

HELP Hel instant cast

7 Upvotes

I've noticed a really annoying issue with Hel.

Whenever I switch stances and immediately try to use an ability, Instant Cast doesn't seem to register properly. I press the ability once, but it doesn't cast, and I have to press the ability button a second time for it to actually go off.

This makes quickly chaining abilities between stances feel really clunky, especially on Hel where constantly stance switching and casting is a huge part of her gameplay.

All of my abilities are set to Instant Cast.

Has anyone else noticed this? I'm wondering if it's a Hel-specific bug or something related to input buffering after stance switches.

HELP Steam & In-Game Store Not Applying Discount to Ultimate Founder's Edition with Base Founder's Edition Owned

3 Upvotes

I've seen a few posts about this issue over the years when googling. Hi-Rez seems to have fixed it for some people; however, my steam has the ultimate founder's edition at $64.99 (normal sale price) and the in-game store has it at $69.99 as if I don't own the base founder's edition. Not sure why the prices don't match. I believe it should be around $45 for me.

I'd like to upgrade before the sale ends Oct. 8th. I tried logging in to Hi-Rez studios website and am getting a "technical error" and can't see a way to put in a help ticket. Hoping to reach Hi-Rez through this post. Any advice is appreciated.

This far in to Smite 2, do you think the one relic system was an improvement?

8 Upvotes

Been thinking a lot about how often it feels necessary in a game to go a second relic, and it got me thinking back to the days of Smite 1’s two relic system. Do you think one relic was an improvement or not for the game? Personally, I think two relics is just too necessary most games to feel like one relic was better.

DISCUSSION General question regarding the UE transition

0 Upvotes

I want to preface this post by saying this is not a pro-Smite 1/anti-Smite 2 post. This is an honest question as someone who loves Smite, but doesn't really understand the nuances of game development. That said, my question is simply:

What has Hirez done on UE5 that they couldn't have done on UE3/Smite 1?

To add what warranted the question: I've heard that Aladdin ult wouldn't have been possible, but aside from that...anything else? I don't think additions such as Aspects, free-building, or other staples to Smite 2 weren't possible in Smite 1. Graphics-wise, there's an obvious improvement, but don't many people play on the lowest possible graphics anyway? I'm just wondering if there was ever a world in which these changes could've been implemented to Smite 1 without the transition to get to where the game (Smite 2) is today. It's not like we're getting a plethora of new gods and mechanics. Perhaps once all old gods are ported over, we'll see them flex the new engine a bit more, but I just wanted to read some thoughts on this.
