I played through the new Adventure with some of the Hi-Rez guys last night: Shadow Over Hercopolis.

I had a ton of fun with it. With the right group, it really feels like the old-school MMO raids. You have to learn the dungeon layout and memorize what to do in certain areas, and you have to carefully kite enemy groups and bosses. Cool loot drops that you equip. Fun little secrets. I recommend it for sure.

Awesome. I went ham on the superhero chest only to realize I could have used the gems on a gold key. I didn't realize the gold vault was open rn and been eyeing that unicorn Guan Yu forever!

It's his fingers. Gotta destroy them all at the same time, so try to get them all around 80% before destroying them.

PSA: purchasing the Shadows over Hercopolis game from the Xbox store (priced 11.99) does not yield any in game rewards as promised. Xbox store is bugged and you're essentially paying for smite.

Been playing with Discordia, enjoying her kit a lot...

She has a decent clear though not on the same level as for example Rajin or other early game monsters. Her 1 / 2 combo does a decent amount of damage and is especially satisfying if you catch 2+ people in your Strife area. Her cooldowns are on the higher end but her third ability help with that as well as functioning as her escape. I feel like the that will be the most important ability to know when and where to make use of in order to be really good with her.

So far have been building her as below:

Pen Boots / Shaman's Ring or Book of Thoth / Obsidian Shard / Rod of Tahuti as the main items... Then usually been selling my starters for cooldown (Chronos Pendant) and power/health (either Ethereal Staff or Gem of Isolation), the order is down to the situation.

Also had a 'completely calculated' ricochet shot with her ult earlier which felt nice :D

I started playing again after Season 3 pretty much ruined the game for me. Season 4 is a little bit better but it's still annoying as hell sometimes. I really wish relics/actives would go back to being not free and Cu/Artio need to seriously get nerfed.

Honestly the only MOBA I was able to tolerate. I wasn't good by any stretch of the word and was always the weakest link on my team, but I had a lot of fun with my friends. I exclusively played Ymir and my K:D was pretty much 1:1, but I remember that each match I would get far far and away the most assists on my team. One of my friends would always choose to lane with me because he knew how to build around my weaknesses, so I'd tank tower and freeze opponents while he'd cover for me and kill the enemies while they were frozen and walled in. Man, I miss Smite maybe I'll get my boy back into it and jump back in.

I play Smite every day. It's by far my most played current gem game. I ADORE it. The only MOBA I could ever get in to.

Hello peeps.

Reviving this because of all of the Season 5 stuff that's been coming out. New Conquest, new Arena, Cerberus, Voodoo and Slavic gods, a whole bunch of fun stuff:

Incidentally, I used to play a lot on PC, transferred to PS4 when my laptop went to shit, and am looking to get back on PC now that I have it fixed. So I'm super hyped right now, and hope to see you guys in! ^o^

I really like this game, and just got back into it after the World Championships, which were great. I play on Xbox and on PC.

SMITE still has a following. There are still pro teams out there too. I think the majority of the interest is on PC but the PS4 version does okay for itself all things considered.

Didn't realize there was a Smite thread.

It was my most played game from last year (700+ hours) on the PS4.

I think the start of Season 5 is a good time to start an OT.

As a Hindu, it is much more fulfilling to don the guise of Kali and slay some false gods
Much more entertaining than all the festivals, puja's etc

Hyped for season 5 to come to consoles. It's also my most played game on Xbox. Game is absolutely fantastic.

Did they ever get around to adding Set and some of the other missing Egyptian gods? Always was my favorite pantheon.

The last Egyptian god they added was Thoth. They're going a lot more slower with god releases, and with two new pantheons added for season 5, it should be a while for Set still

I'm back to playing every day for the past few months. I had taken a break of almost a year.

I never found the old site to be too enthusiastic about Smite, so I can't imagine ERA to be any different. Reddit is the place for actual discussion, unfortunately.

Still, maybe if we got an appropriate and well-made OT, we might draw some in.

Does anyone in here play on PSN and want a buddy? I love the game but fell off because I never had anyone to play with. Usually roll support type characters.

I really liked the game during closed Beta. It was colourful and fast-paced, easy to get into cause no difficult itemization system and fun as hell. And then they browned it up, made it more serious-styled and homogenized the gameplay with other MOBAs. Even added shitty lootboxes and timed exclusive skins out the wazoo. I stopped playing the main mode and went over to playing Arena only after a while, and stopped entirely shortly before they introduced the Japanese pantheon.

Yeah, it's pretty bad. But they got paid 7 million for that, so I can't really blame Hi-Rez there.

Yeah, I hated the design for the Conquest map. They redesigned it for season 5 though and it looks really nice. Gameplay is a lot more casualized, which could be good or bad depending on the person.

I was very wrong about this game. Used to really dislike it, something always felt off. I made the big mistake of playing the AI first, once i jumped into PVP it was sooo much better. Smite's gonna get played a lot for sure.

Team comps are hilarious most of the time, 3 junglers on lanes and a mage in the jungle, support on his own on duo lane and so on.

Where are you from? Does it even matter what region people play from? I'd team up with you, but i usually go support as well lol.

NA, not sure if region matters. What's your PSN? Mine is DAWGPARTY.
I have no problem playing something else! I usually go support because its needed and nobody else wants to, lol. Will gladly play a carry or tank.

Lots of Smite this weekend because of the x3 event on consoles.

I was on a losing streak for most of it, but I had a couple of good matches. These two videos are from my last match last night:
