Im honestly quite disappointed that they basically completely forgot stone of Gaia, I think it’s a really fun item but I fully understand why they can’t really buff it without making solo lane boring as hell
Bruh Gaia is OP as fuck right now. It got nerfed a while back I believe and it's a sleeper item. It's in like all my builds and rushing it makes you nigh unkillable. Granted I play way more just than conquest, however Gaia plus war flag is basically the best early game sustain and survivability you can get and works on a variety both warriors and guardians. 10/10 if you love gaia build it. It's still strong as fuck, whoop enough ass with it and people will start building it again.
Bro I don’t even play the game anymore and I still let your videos run while I count money at the end of my night at work every night just to keep up with the game so keep up the good work lol
Gauntlet of Theben my beloved. When i started playing Smite i fell in love with Kephri and at the same time with the Gauntlet of Theben. Building an Aura-Build on Kephri is just nice and the Gauntlet is a great item.
Thank you for this series! A friend and I are planning to start playing soon, so this helps me make sense of the items a lot so I can help him be up to speed. Definitely looking towards Solo and Support roles as my favorites, maybe ADC as well, so this video especially is nice.
@@MUSE_Maki I'm really into mythology and found the game through researching about various deities. Kept seeing Smite's designs for gods and was curious, so I checked it out. I actually made an account a couple years ago, but around that time my old laptop could barely run it 😆. Plus my wifi was also terrible. But now that I have a full PC and much better wifi, I've come back to it. I'm still a bit intimidated, since I've never played a MOBA and the item system is kinda daunting, but I'm working up the confidence now that I plan to play with someone.
@@mythicmysticmoon do be wary however, I'm sure you're aware of the toxicity of multiplayer games, and smite is pretty bad in this way, don't let those unreasonable ppl get you down or drive you away from the game, it isn't easy but I'd say it's worth it, the mute button is your friend if need be 😊
Surprised you didn't sort it into offensive (ant-heal, glad shield, frostbound, etc.) and defense (prophetic, thebes, lotus sickle, etc.), I think it makes a little bit more sense since you wouldn't ever buy an item for just stats and ignore their passives (except maybe assault?)
Talisman of Energy is in the game. Stone of Gaia is an over the top item in my opinion. Late game when you just want to add that auto healing after your defenses are where you want them: basically the same time you'd want a damage item or elixir.
Utility stats versus tank stats. Cdr and mana are utility stats, physical and magical protects and mitigations are tank stats. He explains his logic very clearly, if you actually watched the video.
@pyromaniac000000 I did watch the video, and that form of logic doesn't make sense when he literally placed Regrowth more towards stats when it has more utility stats than breastplate does lol
I don’t think you have been playing tank this season at all. Ranked especially shows how aids it is to be tank. Not saying I want shit to be buffed to hell but the nerf to pen would suffice overall

Solo lane is currently still boring as hell without it :(

They didn’t remove talisman of energy. They removed the one that gives you a shields at low health
Bulwark of Hope i believe
@@neminem233 yes that one, thank you

every time he says has not been built he means the item sucks because Hi Rez hates tanks but I have to rank it anyway.

Out of curiosity what made you decide to try smite?

@@mythicmysticmoon awesome, always glad to see ppl get into a game I love, this was also the first moba I played, so its def possible for you guys too
@@MUSE_Maki thank you! 💜 I look forward to getting the hang of things.

As an artemis main, I used to love building runeforged with envenomed deathbringer. Very high damage crits. It isn't worth it anymore with the rework.
Ikr I used to build it on Osiris because he has constant slows. Hate how they tried to fix something that wasn't broken

I feel like the Y axis here should've been Stats and Passives rather than Stats and Utility
Most passives are utility based
Probably would've been clearer if you broke it into Stats and Passive (rather than utility which can also apply to some stats)
Thank you for this.
Last time I remember buying asgaurdian mail was before the loki rework
Finally! Been looking or this.
Doesn't Breastplate of Valor literally only have stats? Except for the glyphs
Went against a three hunter game in casual slash and got midgardian, most hate I've received in at least a year. But yeah, it still exists.
So is this video helpful? Im seeing a lot of people pointing out stats and passive so Im wondering if this is going to be accurate
Thanks mane 🤝
I say CCR and mitigations count as stats.
P
Idk I buy emp armour early when I’m playing against dive comps…
Let's gooooo. Much appreciated!
Ironic that he was talking about midguardian being bad just before it showed up a bunch in the SPL LOL
Really hate how they remove witch blade
Every tank item is lawful good
Also buff tanks for the 700th time
How the hell is breastplate of val not full stats it has no passive ????
Talisman of Energy is in the game. Stone of Gaia is an over the top item in my opinion. Late game when you just want to add that auto healing after your defenses are where you want them: basically the same time you'd want a damage item or elixir.
22:22 me who skip to the end then restarted because I was confused
Honestly i wouldve done stats/passive
I watched the entire thing and was still confused, but then again I am new. It just looked like a jumbled mess lol
Wouhou another one❤
I build Stone of Gaia T-T
I am pog, the big man said it uwu
🎉😊❤
I skip and watch the whole thing after.
Ha im a pog
How is Breastplate of Valor balanced between stats and utility? It literally only provides stats lol

@@justinostrem1521 goofy. Just admit you want attention and like to argue.
@@enyraries or the logic of placing items on the chart based on utility/stats doesn't make sense and is inconsistent throughout the whole video?
@@justinostrem1521 I'm sorry you can't understand it. Makes sense to me when I watched it.
I was the 420th like....nice..
Actually first
The "build me, be immortal and still deal a hella ton of damage for free, and then STILL complain about it on youtube" Alignment Chart
You suck
