Game Modes – Conquest

Year 10 Season 4 Conquest provides an expansion on the existing Stygian Beacon and Unleashed Titan mechanics. The capture point style objective has been a positive addition to the mode, creating new opportunities for teams to contest objectives or allowing teams that are behind to find moments to farm. By introducing a second loop and changing the reward, it also shifts some of the focus making the objective continuously more important for the late-game Shaman camps and Spirit totems provide a new twist on the time tested jungle buff collection mechanic. These randomized empowerment effects allow for minor variations in each game and a new type of player choice. There is always the safe option that you can rely on and invading is not a heavy penalty but denying experience and farm is always a valid choice. Finally the new Fire Giant pit and surrounding Jungle layout will be unlike previous iterations. The open area allows for more movement in a previously closed off setting. There are a lot more ambush and steal opportunities and generally a new way to play around an old objective.

Art Update – A Celebration of Conquest

• The Season of Celebration visits the Conquest map with uplifting spirits! There are sweeping updates to the visual representation of the map seen primarily in the foliage and set dressing. The Fire Giant pit has gone through an overhaul in gameplay and in visuals as well. The Underworld is behind and beneath the gods as they are lifted back into the light

Geometry Changes

• The Fire Giant pit has been completely revamped! Previously it was more closed off but now the walls have been broken and a new arena has emerged with much more open space

• • The geometry around the Fire Giant pit has been transformed with several smaller walls shifting location and size
  • The Fire Giant Mid Harpy camp has been repositioned on the opposite wall, closer to the Fire Giant pit
    • This continues to be the location of the Pyromancer as well

• There is a new tight corridor behind the Fire Giant pit and the Scorpion camp

New Jungle Feature – Shaman Camp and Spirit Totems

• This unique jungle camp replaces the back Harpy camp between the Red and Blue buff camps on the Fire Giant side of the map
• After an initial Harpy camp spawn, the next 5 respawns at this location are Shaman camps
  • After all 5 have been cleared, the rotation returns back to Harpies only
  • Camp respawn timer remains at 120s
• Each Shaman camp contains a Shaman leader and 2 Shaman guards
  • The Shaman leader is imbued with a Spirit power, that when defeated, creates new Spirit Totems infused with the power of the leader defeated
• Notes
  • Shaman leader rotations are random each game however will always be the same rotation for both Order and Chaos sides
  • Invading and killing a Shaman leader will still provide the enemy team the corresponding Spirit Totem as usual
• Shaman leader stats
  • Base Health: 600
  • Base Physical Prots: 12
  • Base Magical Prots: 5
  • Base Physical Power: 28
  • Kill XP: 40

• After the defeat of a Shaman Leader, Spirit Totems are created in each Jungle buff camp location and can be interacted with by a basic attack, empowering one at a time
• Spirit Totem buffs are augments to the actual buff holder drops and can be changed at any time by empowering a new Spirit Totem before the buff itself is picked up
• Spirit Totem augment rewards

  • Golden Spirit Totem: +5% Penetration
  • Violet Spirit Totem: +10% Attack Speed

Stygian Beacon and Unleashed Titans

• Unleashed Titan base reward increased from 170 to 250 gold

Conquest Balance

There has been a lot of change this year in both the strength of the map objectives and also player power itself. One thing that has been a constant trend is the slight increase in game time, getting to a point where Conquest matches can get a little longer than might feel good. Snowball and comeback mechanics are the key mechanism driving these changes and ones that we have been acutely aware of with each shift. The goal for the following changes are to slightly decrease the comeback gold gained for the Cyclops Chests as well as shifting rewards towards the contestable map objectives, both areas that we have previously tweaked with and found successful in doing so.

• Cyclops Chests
  • Decreased Gold deficit gained per chest from 1.0% to 0.8%
• Fire Giant
  • Increased scaling XP Gold Reward from 5 to 8
  • Increased scaling Team Gold Reward from 6 to 9
• Pyromancer
  • Increased scaling XP Gold Reward from 3 to 5
  • Increased scaling Team Gold Reward from 3 to 5
• Oracles

  • Reduced Oracle vision from 1.5m to 1m
• Shield Buff Scorpion (Duo Lane)
  • Increased scaling Gold Reward from 2 to 4

  • Increased scaling Gold Reward from 2 to 4

  • Decreased base XP Reward from 136 to 130
  • Decreased base Gold Reward from 60 to 50
• Red Buff Guard (Mini)
  • Decreased base Gold Reward from 22 to 18
• Yellow Buff Holder
  • Decreased base XP Reward from 136 to 130
  • Decreased base Gold Reward from 60 to 50
• Yellow Buff Guard (Mini)
  • Decreased base Gold Reward from 22 to 18
• Purple Buff Holder
  • Decreased base XP Reward from 136 to 130
  • Decreased base Gold Reward from 60 to 50
• Purple Buff Guard (Mini)
  • Decreased base Gold Reward from 22 to 18

Items – New Recipes

Even gods need to eat and oh have they been cooking up a storm! This Season introduces a brand new type of item in Recipes. These are effectively evolving items with quest steps, designed to be obtained alongside starter items at the beginning of each match. Experienced players will be able to flex between a different recipe for the god and role they find themself in, min-maxing situations to get to their final meal as fast as possible. For those who don’t mind how long their food takes, the steps are designed to be obtained simply enough through casual gameplay. With no duration and stats there is slightly less stress, and these meals can eventually be replaced to round out a full item build. Enjoy!

• New type of item
  • Purchase Recipes from the store – These are purchased as items
    • Gold cost – 0g
    • Duration – Permanent until sold/replaced

• Step 2 – Deal 2000 god damage with abilities.

Items – General

For this seasonal pass, we wanted to have a look at some of the underperforming items. Manakin’s has fallen out of favor and by lowering the higher price point, it should be a lot more fair to pick up. Also with a stronger upgrade option, the payoff will still remain in the late game. Tank and mage itemization are a constant back and forth alongside player power, a situation we are always keeping an eye on. As the year is getting further along, we want to ensure a stable footing with measured changes. We do expect things to change beyond our expectations, as seasons tend to do, and we will react as quickly as possible.

God Changes

Apollo Apollo was one of the earliest hunters introduced to SMITE back in beta, so by boosting the importance of his stim, increasing the potential of his poke, and getting him back in the action faster from his ultimate, we hope that both new and old Apollo fans alike will enjoy these changes! Audacity

• While this effect is active, Apollo gains 20% increased basic attack projectile speed

So Beautiful

• Increased Projectile speed from 110 to 150
• Increased scaling damage from 80% to 85%

Serenade

• Now gains Magical Protections as well as Physical Protections
  • 10/15/20/25/30

• Decreased tick time from 0.2s to 0.15s
• Decreased mana cost per second from 40/50/60/70/80 to 35/40/45/50/55

Chernobog The Lord of Darkness has seen much success over the years at the higher end of play, but we recognize that he is a challenging god to master. These changes give Chernobog players more agency in his bread and butter combo, and shift his style toward more frequent, but less powerful Attack Speed stims. Crystallized Curses

• Increased Projectile Speed from 105 to 125
• Decreased minimum air time from 0.2s to 0.1s
• Increased Collision Radius from 20 to 25
• Added 25% Slow for 2s on initial hit

Vicious Barrage

• Decreased Mana cost from 50/55/60/65/70 to 30/35/40/45/50

• Removed Slow

Pele The Goddess of Volcanoes is known for being pretty deadly when she erupts, but she often finds herself in a tricky situation after putting herself in the thick of things. By giving her a little more flexibility in her Fuel usage, Pele will be able to recover from sticky situations more easily. Pyroclast

• This ability now provides 5/6/7/8/9 Fuel on successful hit of an enemy

Volcanic Lightning

• Increased number of hits from 3 to 4
• Decreased Basic Attack Damage reduction from 50% to 40%

Arachne Arachne is one of SMITE’s most prolific 1v1ers, but struggles to find her place in late game brawls and open arenas. By giving her more consistent access to her Attack Speed stim and CC, we are hopeful Arachne players will have more chances to survive and thrive in even the most chaotic environments. Cocoon

• Decrease amount of hits to stun from 3 to 2
• Decrease duration of the buff from 6s to 4s
• Decouple the stun from the Attack Speed Stim

Web

• Increased number of Broodlings from 2 at all ranks to 2/2/2/2/3

Night Crawler

• Increase leap range from 40 to 50

Thoth As SMITE’s resident artillery mage, Thoth has always excelled at poking down his foes. However, this bird has seen better days, especially since we’ve been in metas where safety and pressure are paramount. These changes should help the Arbiter of the Damned be more independent. Dead Reckoning

• Added 1% Magical Penetration per Stack

Hieroglyphic Assault

• Now deals 25% more damage to jungle minions

Glyph of Pain

• Increased Basic Attack Damage by attacking through the Glyph from 20/25/30/35/40 to 30/35/40/45/50 (+5% of your Magical Power)

Final Judgement

• Increased Damage from 400/460/520/580/640 (+115% of your Magical Power) to 420/480/540/600/660 (+125% of your Magical Power)

Raijin Raijin is a god that has fallen out of favor after dominating many metas of the past. We have given him a small gameplay style update to allow him to beat to his own rhythm between abilities in order to get them back a bit sooner. Charged Tempo

• Every basic attack on enemies reduces Raijins non-ultimate cooldowns by 0.2s

Raiju

• Added 40/45/50/55/60 (+15% of your Magical Power) initial hit damage on landing Raiju

Thunder Crash

• Reduced Prefire and Setup times from 0.2s to 0.1s

Taiko Drums

• Raijin now gains 5/10/15/20/25% Attack Speed per rank of this ability

King Arthur The King tows a fine line between the various skill levels in SMITE – despite his innate strength, he is one of the more difficult deities to master. In order to give players a more consistent experience, making Steadfast easier to stack fully will grant him easier access to his survivability options in addition to a few more adjustments to his other abilities. Steadfast

• Decrease Duration from 15s to 10s
• Decreased Max. Stacks from 4 to 3
• Increased Mitigation from 1% to 2.5%
• Now gains 5 HP5 per stack

Battle Stomp (Uppercut)

• Increased the Slow debuff from 20/25/30/35/40% to 30/32.5/35/37.5/40%

Twin Cleave (Bladestorm)

• Fixed issue where the first hit was only debuffing 7% Protections instead of 10%

Bladestorm (Twin Cleave)

• Increased base damage per swing from 10/30/50/70/90 to 15/35/55/75/95
• Increased Final Damage from 30/80/130/180/230 to 35/90/145/200/255

Osiris It has not been long since the days where Osiris dominated the Mitigation meta, but since adjusting and futureproofing that system, he has taken quite the nosedive. To adjust for this, we are leaning into a more unique playstyle for the God of the Afterlife, granting him various Attack Speed-oriented effects and more consistent tools for the late game. Fragmented

• Increased Magical Damage Mitigation from 1% per fragment to 2%
• Now increases your attack speed by 20% while all stacks are active

Sickle Strike

• This projectile now passes through and damages enemy minions for 50% of the total damage

Judgement Tether

• Now decreases the tethered enemies attack speed by 20%

Ares Ares’ success is very dependent on his ability to hit chains. We wanted to shift up his strengths to make him less of a one-trick pony, granting him some extra team utility as well as safety during No Escape. General

• Increased Base attack damage from 38 to 40

Blessed Presence

• Ares gains bonus base attack damage per level
  • Old attack damage – 1.55
  • New – 4

Bolster Defenses

• Ares and Allies now gain 0/5/10/15/20 Basic attack damage while in the area
• Decreased Duration from 8s to 6s

No Escape

• Added 20% Damage Mitigation while channeling

Shackles

• Decreased God Damage per Tick from 25/45/65/85/105 to 20/40/60/80/100

Cabrakan We’re giving the Destroyer of Mountains a new gameplay loop built around frequently thrashing his foes with Tremors. Though the ability may cost a lot of mana to use, Cabrakan also gains a way to restore his own mana through Refraction Shield. We’re excited to see Cabrakan smash through the competition! Tremors

• Increase Tremors mana cost from 10/15/20/25/30 mana every 0.5s to 20/30/40/50/60 mana every 0.5s
• Decreased Cooldown from 8s to 3s

General

• Increased base MP5 from 4.6 to 8
• Increased per level MP5 0.42 to 0.8

Refraction Shield

• Decreased mana cost from 65/70/75/80/85 to 10 at all ranks
• On successful hit, this ability refunds Cabrakan 10/15/20/25/30 Mana per hit

Athena The Goddess of Wisdom has always been a great beginner pick, but she struggles to keep up on the higher end. By switching up her core CC combo and granting her a little more safety while taunting, Athena will have more flexibility to assist her team even without Confound! Preemptive Strike

• Removed Slow from this ability

Confound

• While enemies are taunted, their Attack Speed is slowed by 30%

Shield Wall

• Added 20% Slow for 2s on both hits

Defender of Olympus

• Allied god gains 20% Movement Speed

Amaterasu Despite our buffs to Basic Attack Warrior items in the last patch, we have noticed that SMITE’s Shining Light was a little dull. In granting her some extra Attack Speed, we’re hoping the synergy with the rest of her kit will glow even brighter! Illuminating Strike

• Increased debuff duration from 5s to 6s

Divine Presence

• While Amaterasu is healing, she gains 15/20/25/30/35% Attack Speed

Kukulkan With Kukulkan being an old god, we decided it’s time to teach him a few new tricks! Despite being a god based around building mana, having a basic ability cost 70 mana at rank 1 is fairly unheard of nowadays. Watch out, because a storm is brewing! Zephyr

• Decreased mana cost from 70/75/80/85/90 to 55/60/65/70/75

Whirlwind

• Decreased cooldown from 15/14/13/12/11s to 14/13/12/11/10s

Maui This fancy fisherman can be quite tricky to play, but has quite rewarding utility when he is able to hit those skillshots! By giving Maui more chances to use Master Fisherman throughout the match, we’re hoping he reels in a huge catch! Master Fisherman

• Decreased Cooldown from 16/15.5/15/14.5/14s to 14/13.5/13/12.5/12s
• Increased Damage from 100/165/230/285/360 to 100/170/240/310/380

Mystical Ulua

• Decreased Mana cost from 55/60/65/70/75 to 55 at all ranks

Nemesis Nemesis is a lover of all things balance, and as such, she is a character that dashes in and out of meta on a whim. We’re reverting a previous nerf to Slice and Dice, which will give her just enough help in the clear department to hopefully see some play once again. Swift Vengeance

• Decreased mana cost from 50/60/70/80/90 to 50 at all ranks

Slice and Dice

• Decreased cooldown from 12s to 11s
• Increased damage scaling from 30% to 35%

Skadi Even amidst the most perilous conditions, the Goddess of Winter cannot be stopped when she is in her element. With even this small adjustment to Skadi’s survivability, we believe it will grant her an appropriate advantage against those who wish to slow her down. Permafrost

• Skadi now gains Slow Immunity while she has the Movement Speed buff

Ymir Ymir not feel so good… think Ymir need more wall. More wall good, make Ymir happy. General

• Increased MP5 per level from 0.4 to 0.45

Ice Wall

• Decreased Cooldown from 13s at all ranks to 13/12.5/12/11.5/11

Baba Yaga This old lady may look sweet, but beware- she’s been a deadly competitor on the battleground as of late! A majority of her damage and survivability has been coming from her ultimate, so we’re bringing both elements down just a bit to get Baba Yaga back in line. Home Sweet Home

• Decreased Burst Damage from 75/105/135/165/195 to 70/100/130/160/190
• Decreased Shield Health from 160/230/300/370/440 to 160/215/270/325/380

Charon The Ferryman has continued to perform beyond our expectations, so we’re sending him back with decreased survivability in the early stages of the game, as well as a reduced debuff for all who dare to tread in his wake! Damnation

• Decreased Attack Speed Slow from 30% to 25%

Swift Voyage

• Increased Cooldown from 15s to 17/16.5/16/15.5/15s

Hachiman Hachiman continues to be a top contender in the carry role, especially considering his safety. By increasing the cooldown of Mounted Archery, we’re hoping he becomes just a bit easier to track down. Mounted Archery

• Increased cooldown from 90s to 100s

Jormungandr The World Serpent has been devouring anyone who would think of contesting him in the early minutes of the solo lane. As such, we’re bringing down the tick damage of Venomous Haze so he will have less sustained damage on the variety of objectives at his disposal. Venomous Haze

• Decreased base damage per tick from 15/25/35/45/55 to 10/20/30/40/50

Kali Kali has continued to dominate the ranked scene, being one of the winningest and most banned gods over the past few patches. Considering the overall nerf to Power from the Season of Souls, it is now Kali’s turn to have her free stats toned down. Incense

• Decreased Power buff from 10/20/30/40/50 to 10/15/20/25/30

Destruction

• Decreased Damage from 30/35/40/45/50 every 0.5s to 25/30/35/40/45

Martichoras We have heard the community loud and clear, and the data does not lie. Martichoras is very deserving of some severe nerfs, and we believe these will deliver. We are going to continue closely monitoring the Manticore King and will prepare additional nerfs if necessary. Monstrosity

• Decreased Physical Lifesteal per stack from 0.7% to 0.5%
• Decreased Physical Ability Lifesteal per stack from 0.7% to 0.5%

Poisoned Barb

• Increased Cooldown from 13/12.5/12/11.5/11s to 13s at all ranks

Death From Above

• Decreased damage scaling from 16% per burst to 12% per burst
• Increased Cooldown from 90s to 100s

Set Set is another ranked menace, but is notably one of SMITE’s hardest gods to play, even at a base level. As such, these nerfs are specifically targeted toward high skill players. Spawn of Set (Revert)

• Decreased Dash Damage from 60/65/70/75/80% to 50/55/60/65/70%

Kingslayer

• Decreased Movement Speed from 30% to 20/22.5/25/27.5/30%

Thor The community perception surrounding the God of Thunder has been surprising considering his statistics across all modes and skill levels, but we have observed the biggest point of frustration has been his one-shot potential with his bread and butter combo. Mjolnir’s Attunement

• Decreased base damage from 50/90/130/170/210 to 40/80/120/160/200

Anvil of Dawn

• Decreased damage scaling on the initial hit from 100% to 90%

Non-Conquest Balance

When we announced the last round of non-Conquest changes, we understood that although SMITE’s healer mains would be disappointed, Aphrodite’s win and pick rates qualified her for such a nerf. After these adjustments, the data indicates that her stats were hit harder than anticipated.

• Aphrodite
  • Removed the non-ultimate Cooldown nerf
