    • These are being restated to clarify the intended mechanics and how they relate to bug fixes in this update

      • For enemy-side camps on the map:
        • the player, one of their teammates, or a friendly ward gained vision of the camp location at the exact moment the camp dies (the last remaining monster is killed) 
      • For neutral camps and friendly-side camps:
        • the player, one of their teammates, or a friendly ward gained vision of the camp location anytime after the camp was completely cleared (all monsters are dead and preparing to respawn)
          • This is includes Boss camps (Gold Furies, Pyromancer, Fire Giant)
    • A player will gain partial information where they see no timer but will see the icon appear on the map at the time it respawns when:

Items

GENERALGlyphs have had a big impact on SMITE across all modes and gods. These new special items seem to be generating a lot of excitement and people are eager to see more released. As we plan Glyphs for the future, most likely Mid-Season, we wanted to go ahead and implement this balance safety measure early. Each god will only be able to own one item in its Glyphed form at a time.

  • Each player can now only buy 1 Glyph total

AMULET OF SILENCEThis Glyph boasted a powerful effect, but was often hard to apply. With this change it should be much more useful, ensuring that it silences an enemy god much more consistently.

  • This item will now only trigger and consume the cooldown if it successfully applies to an enemy god

THORNS OF OVERGROWTHWe are always careful with Thorns Relics, possibly in Season 9 we were a bit too careful and both versions seem to be on the lower end in both popularity and performance. We are boosting the radius of Thorns of Overgrowth to make increase the chances the additional effects are applied, while also increasing the duration of Thorns of Sapping Strength to give them both a much needed buff.

  • Increased the radius of the bonus buffs from 40 units to 55 units

THORNS OF SAPPING STRENGTH

  • Increased the duration from 2s to 3s

BRACER OF ILLUMINATIONWell we already used the “Wards Win Games” line, but it can’t hurt to say it again right? This Relic provides a very unique ward that can potentially gather a lot more vision than normal, but it does come at the cost of a Relic slot, so we are increasing its vision gaining abilities to help it compete.

  • Decreased Cooldown from 100s to 90s
  • Increased the Range on the Patrolling Ward from 60 to 80
  • Increased the Speed by 15% from its current speed

BERSERKER’S SHIELDA major feature of this SMITE update comes in the form of Berserker’s Shield being reworked, as well as a series of other Warrior Item balance changes. This shield is single handedly driving the meta in both the Jungle and the Solo lane. It has given life to a lot of new gods in solo, which is great, but it’s also keeping a lot of the same gods OP in the jungle and encouraging them to build tankier than we would like. Our goal with this rework is to move the item specifically toward the Solo Lane. It’s losing a lot of its aggressive states, specifically % Penetration and its passive, and instead picking up more elements of survivability.Warriors and Assassins often benefit from the same items, but we are trying to make a more specific stat set between Jungle items and Solo items, with this patch focusing on a series of buffs toward the Solo Lane specifically. We will continue to keep a close eye on Junglers and we will continue to make changes to items and gods to encourage Assassins to play in that role, and to build into higher Power and Penetration builds when they do.

  • 2400 gold
  • +30 Physical Power
  • +60 Physical Protection
  • +25% Attack Speed
  • +15 HP5
  • PASSIVE – If you drop below 40% Health you become Berserk for 5s. Berserk provides 7% Damage Mitigation. Can only occur once every 15 seconds.
  • Can Now be built by all physical gods

ASI

  • Updated text to clarify how it functions differently than Berserker’s Shield
    • Asi will reactivate immediately upon taking or dealing a hit while at low HP once it comes off cooldown, Berserkers only triggers at the time you cross into low HP, and will not reactivate unless you heal up and drop below again.
  • While below 35% Health, you gain an additional 30% Physical Lifesteal for 5 seconds. Can only occur once every 15 seconds.

BLACKTHORN HAMMER

  • Increased Physical Power from 25 to 30

SPIKED SHIELD

  • Decreased Cost from 1600 to 1400
  • Add 50 Health 
  • Void Shield still costs 2600

GLADIATOR’S SHIELD

  • Increased Health from 200 to 250

(STARTER) LEATHER COWLHunters are seeing a few small buffs, first with an increase in power to Leather Cowl. This item has become overshadowed by other starter options and it feels reasonable to match its power to them. It provides a very different effect than Death’s Toll, so even at comparable power the two should create different builds and be better on different gods.

  • Increased Physical Power from 15 to 20

(UPGRADE) LEADER’S COWL

  • Increased Physical Power from from 40 to 50

QIN’S SAISThis one is always a bit scary to buff, but we want to give Hunters a small edge toward tank shredding, and this is the primary item for that goal. We will start small with this item and then see where we need to go in future patches after the nerfs to Mages and shifts to Warriors hit the battleground.

  • Decreased Cost from 2700 to 2600

JOTUNN’S FEROCITYOf the two Glyphs on this tree, Vigor has shown itself to be the more powerful. Ferocity can provide some impressive stats but it’s also significantly harder to apply, so we are decreasing the cooldown considerably to ensure that

  • Decreased this item’s internal cooldown from 60s to 30s

KATANAAssassins get another buff through cost decreases across the Katana tree. The Tier 1 item has an especially hard time competing with Tier 1 Mace, so we are buffing its cost to help that. That cost increase will translate up the tree to the Tier 2 and a selection of Tier 3 items. Golden Blade is avoiding the cost buff because it is so cheap already, and Serrated edge is going unbuffed because of how strong and popular it already is. But the other Katanas will enjoy their new discounts.

  • Decreased Cost from 650 to 600

THOUSAND FOLD BLADE

  • Decreased Cost from 1300 to 1250

STONE CUTTING SWORD

  • Decreased Cost from 2250 to 2200

HASTENED KATANA

  • Decreased Cost from 2500 2450

SERRATED EDGE

  • Will remain at the current total cost by increasing the gold it takes to upgrade them from T2 to T3

GOLDEN BLADE

  • Will remain at the current total cost by increasing the gold it takes to upgrade them from T2 to T3

JADE EMPEROR’S CROWNThis item was quickly and heavily changed in PTS to prevent Guardians from taking over the Solo Lane. This was successful, but the item seems to be left in a weaker spot than intended. We are buffing its Health and Passive to give it an extra boost in Support builds or specific counter-build scenarios.

  • Increased Health from 300 to 350 
  • Increased Power Debuff from 10% to 15%

ONI HUNTER’S GARBThis item provides a strong effect for getting into the fray with multiple opponents, but its base stats are a little lackluster. We are increasing the base health on this item to give it a nice little boost even when facing only 1 opponent.

  • Increased Health from 100 to 200
Gods

HE BOHis lower body is made of water, so there’s no reason why He Bo couldn’t be more fluid in his movements. For years this god had been heavily limited by a self root which is pretty punishing for a high risk high reward god like He Bo. This should give him a lot more flexibility to poke and gank without actually upping his damage numbers.

WATERSPOUT

  • Removed the self root on He Bo while firing this ability

POSEIDONWe have seen this god make a splash in a few different roles, with even attack speed and jungle Poseidon looking strong in Season 9. We are going very light on buffs with him and targeting only a few exceedingly high mana costs.

TRIDENT

  • Mana cost reduced from 65/70/75/80/85 to 55/60/65/70/75

RELEASE THE KRAKEN

  • Mana cost reduced from 100/110/120/130/140 to 100 at all ranks

BARON SAMEDISimilar to He Bo, Baron puts a lot of restrictions on himself. Especially during this Ultimate where he moves much slower. We are speeding him up as well as adding more damage per tick to make sure Baron can get the most out of his Ultimate.

LIFE OF THE PARTY

  • Decreased Self Slow from 60% to 40%
  • Increased Tick damage scaling from 6% of your Magical Power to 8%

SERQETWe are trying something totally new with Serqet – a “Rebalance”! This Goddess is an Assassin, but has been played at the top levels of SMITE mostly as a Support (or as a full tank even in the Jungle). She is also relatively low in popularity and performance in all other skill levels. We wanted to do something big to her balance position, without changing the kit too much with the goal of making her a worse tank and a better burst Assassin. The result has been changes to damage across the entire kit, losing base damage on every ability and increasing scaling. There are also a few key targeted shifts in the kit, such as decreasing her leap range back to the game-wide standard, and giving her mitigations while ulting to make it less risky. We are looking forward to player feedback and the gameplay data on this unique initiative. Hopefully we can see Serqet be a potent Assassin in the Jungle again!

CATALYST

  • Shifted damage on a basic attack that consumes 2 poisons from 10% Max HP to 5% Max HP + 70% of your physical power 
  • Shifted damage on a basic attack that consumes 3 poisons from 20% Max HP to 10% Max HP + 100% of your physical power

DEATHBANE

  • Decreased Base Damage from 50/70/90/110/130 to 50/65/80/95/110
  • Increased Physical Power Scaling from 45% to 50% of your Physical Power per hit

COBRA’S KISS

  • Decreased Base Damage from 50/75/100/125/150 to 40/55/70/85/100 per shot
  • Increased Physical Power Scaling from 50% to 70% per shot

AMBUSH

  • Decreased Leap Range from 65 to 55
  • Decreased Base Damage from 80/140/200/260/320 to 80/125/170/215/260
  • Increase Physical Power Scaling from 70% to 90%

LAST BREATH

  • Decreased Base Damage from 100/175/250/325/400 to 102/150/198/252/300
    • (new damage per tick across 6 ticks is 17/25/33/42/50)
  • Increased Physical Power Scaling from 80% to 120%
    • (new scaling per tick across 6 ticks is 20%)
  • While firing this ability Serqet will now gain 35% damage mitigation

THORThe God of Thunder has been especially quiet lately. A while back we introduced a new mechanic to his Ultimate where he becomes imbued with lightning and able to do more follow up and AoE damage after crashing down. We would like to see that mechanic become a more important part of his kit, so we are increasing the base damage and the range on these extra damage triggers. This should give Thor more ways to follow up after dunking down on his opponents.

ANVIL OF DAWN

  • Lightning Damage Increased from 15/25/35/45/55 to 20/30/40/50/60 
  • Increased range on lightning arcs from 30 to 35

CUPIDThis cherubic little god has fallen off in favor of some new buffed hunters. He was a dominant force last season and received a few well needed nerfs, but in looking at his pressure and laning power it’s becoming clear that he could use some of that back. We are applying a small damage buff to Heart Bomb, reverting a nerf he had previously to make sure this core damaging ability can be effective

HEART BOMB

  • Increased Physical Power Scaling from 75% to 80% (10% increase total if hit by the initial and explosion)

JING WEIThe new explosive damage on Jing Wei’s stimmed basic attacks was an exciting idea, but we didn’t see very strong results from it. At least not yet. We still like the idea of these attacks being more powerful, and having better synergy with Crit, so we are buffing the same number yet again.

EXPLOSIVE BOLTS

  • Increased Damage per Shot from 110% to 120% of Jing Wei’s Physical Power

XBALANQUEAnother non-traditional hunter gets a buff in this Update. Xbalanque, like Cupid and Jing Wei, focuses a lot on his basic attack damage. Poison Darts is his primary damaging ability but it has a lot of limitations, specifically being bodyblocked by minions. We are buffing its cooldown to give Xbalanque a better chance at hitting his opponents with a few darts.

POISON DARTS

  • Decreased cooldown from 18/17/16/15/14s to 16/15.5/15/14.5/14

YMIRYmir buffs are best buffs for patch notes. So fun to write. Ymir fall off too hard after last nerfs, so time for buffs. Ymir focus on CC mostly, so buff that. Ymir be better Support now… YMIR!

FROST BREATH

  • Decreased Cooldown from 16s to 16/15.5/15/14.5/14s

XING TIANThe unstoppable god should live up to his name. Xing Tian likes to get into combat and stay there by sustaining himself through his HP5 passive, but another way he can boost his survivability is through hitting enemies with his leap to gain a protection buff. We want to draw more attention to this aspect of this ability, while also boosting Xing Tian’s tank stats.

SKY CUTTING AXE

  • Increased Protection buff from 10/15/20/25/30 to 20/25/30/35/40
  • Increased Duration of the Protection buff from 3s to 4s

CTHULHUThe dreamer has returned to his slumber and we are doing our best to wake him up. We have been careful to not provide tanks with much more damage, but this ability from Cthulhu is especially close range and requires a lot of management on his passive to get the most out of it. This buff should help his lane phase considerably.

SANITY BREAK

  • Increased Base Damage from 90/135/180/225/270 to 100/150/200/250/300

CU CHULAINNLast but not least is the Rage driven warrior himself, Cu Chulainn. Bluestone meta has returned with no appearances from this god, which proved he was safe to buff. We were careful to buff his survivability and mobility, and not his damage output which can be especially punishing at early levels.

BERSERK

  • Increased Health Shield from 10 +10 per level to 10 +15 per level

SALMON’S LEAP / FURIOUS CHARGE

  • Decreased cooldown from 16s to 15s
Items

These Nerfs should be a significant decrease in damage for Mages, and with the Berserkers Shield rework in the main patch we will see a significant damage reduction from them as well, the two biggest sources of frustration in SMITE right now.

SPEAR OF THE MAGUSMages were struggling last season. The 9.1 Update brought some of the biggest buffs the class has seen in a while, with all the core penetration items getting a stat increase. Early flat pen is a huge damage boost, with every point being significantly stronger than Magical Power would be. For this reason we feel comfortable fine-tuning the numbers even more. These items won’t provide stats at a clear increment of 5, but this unique in-between should bring the class down in early damage without going all the way back to the problem areas of last year.

  • Decreased Magical Penetration from 15 to 12

DIVINE RUIN

  • Decreased Magical Penetration from 15 to 12

SPEAR OF DESOLATION

  • Decreased Magical Penetration from 15 to 12

CELESTIAL LEGION HELMAnother nerf for Mages is coming through this hybrid item that gives them a better fight against Junglers, especially in the early game. We want Mages to have some opportunity to itemize into different directions based on the situation, but the recent Power buff to this item is proving to be slightly too much, so we are toning it back to a number in between the current and the previous state.

  • Decreased Magical Power from 90 to 80

SEER OF THE JUNGLEWards win games! Thus, being able to take out wards is an even more powerful way to win the game. This item has become the number one Jungle item, and for good reason. The passive has an internal cooldown which can lead to some clunky situations, so we are removing this while also nerfing that stats to keep other Jungle Starters in close competition with Seer.

  • Decrease Physical Power from 70 to 65
  • Decrease Magical Power from 105 to 95
  • Decreased Attack Speed from 30% to 25%
  • Remove internal cooldown of 15s

BELT OF THE BERSERKERThis Relic has seen a huge increase in purchase rate, especially at high skill tiers. Frenzy Relics have been quite powerful over the years even though they were mostly viewed as a more fringe strategy. Now that players have finally seen the light we are nerfing the more powerful of the two Relics in this tree.

  • Decreased Initial Damage Buff from 30% to 25% 
  • Decreased Initial Attack Speed Buff from 50% to 40%
Gods

ZEUSWhat year is it?! Zeus needs a nerf. His most recent buff to give him Attack Speed and Movement Speed had a huge impact on this god, skyrocketing him from meme god to an actual SPL first pick! We are very happy with the gameplay feel and well-rounded combat he received from this recent buff, so we will be nerfing other parts of his kit instead. Zeus has historically had huge burst damage, which he now relies on less. Detonates base damage is coming down at all ranks to tone down the god of gods.

DETONATE CHARGE

  • Decreased Base Damage from 60/90/120/150/180 to 50/80/110/140/170
    • Through the 1.7 and 2.4x multiplier this has the following effects on Detonate at 2 and 3 stacks:
      • Decreased from 102/153/204/255/306 to 85/136/187/238/289 at 2 stacks
      • Decreased from 144/216/288/360/432 to 120/192/264/336/408 at 3 stacks

SOLThis Mage ADC continues to put up huge numbers in ranked win rate, while also being a top pick and ban. Sol can provide a huge amount of pressure through her basic attacks, which get a significant boost in damage through her passive. This passive ramps up but also provides a huge bonus when maxed out, and this is the aspect we have chosen to bring down. This will smooth out her power curve and bring down her top end damage, especially against towers and jungle bosses.

UNSTABLE MANIFESTATION

  • Unstable Manifestation
    • Decreased the buff on Sol’s basic attacks while at max Heat from +20% Damage to +15% Damage

IZANAMIThe insta clear hunter is certainly performing well in this new season with new early game objectives. Izanami is seeing more pro play than ever, with a focus on the early pressure she can provide. To nerf this from level 1 we are decreasing her base Power and Attack Speed, which will have a subtle effect but should slow her down.

GENERAL

  • Decreased Base Physical Power from 36 to 34 
  • Decreased Base Attack Speed from 0.95 to 0.92

SHIVAThere have been enough destroyer jokes on social media to write 100 patch notes with, but the sentiment is accurate and Shiva is destroying the competition. Shiva has a huge amount of flexibility that makes him potentially viable in multiple different roles. We are hitting both his survivability as well as his scaling damage to keep him flexible while bringing him down in overall potency.

EMBLAZONED SWEEP

  • Decreased Physical Power Scaling from 60% to 55% on the initial hit

SHIVA TANDAVA

  • Decreased Physical Power Scaling from 50% to 45% to the Destruction Dance per hit
    • Which also decreases scaling from 25% to 22.5% on the Amplification Dance per hit

PILLAR OF DAWN

  • Decreased Damage Mitigation from 40% to 30%

GILGAMESHThe King is far from dead. Gilgamesh continues to be a top Jungler, and is receiving damage scaling nerfs to address it. We are starting to see the possibility of this god back in the Solo Lane, which is very exciting. Hopefully pushing him out of the jungle through damage nerfs will let his utility still shine from other roles.

HERO’S ADVANCE

  • Decreased Physical Power Scaling from 50% to 40%

WINDS OF SHAMASH

  • Decreased Physical Power Scaling from 50% to 40%

BASTETHow many lives are we on? Bastet has been nerfed a few times now, each time with noticeable results. Her new found utility is making her historically large burst damage feel clearly overtuned, much like Zeus. We are applying a significantly large damage nerf to this goddess which should put her in a better spot.

POUNCE

  • Decreased Base Damage from 80/145/210/275/340 to 80/135/190/245/300
  • Decrease Physical Power Scaling from 100% to 90%

FENRIRThe best Assassin Support continued to be a top pick in competitive play into the new season. His Ultimate provides a huge amount of survivability as well as a powerful and long form of crowd control. We are changing the protection boost from a multiplier to flat which will decrease the utility he gets from building full tank, and we are also decreasing the duration that he can be in his Ult form as well as the length of the CC. We will keep a close look at this god and potentially introduce more buffs in the future to move him back toward being a Jungler.

RAGNAROK

  • Decreased the duration of this ability from 5s to 4s 
  • Decreased the time that Fenrir can hold an enemy after biting them from 2s to 1.75s 
    • This applies for its full length after the initial duration, even if fenrir grabs someone at the last second
  • Now Gives 20/30/40/50/60 Magical and Physical Protections instead of 2x Protections
