Learn the Basics of Building in Smite | Smite Beginner's Guide 2020

building is one of the most important parts of smite a good build is truly the difference between you living or dying now in this video I will be breaking down the fundamental components on how to build God's and how to think about building God's so that you can begin to understand what I'm going to be calling building theory this video is not going to have any math I've learned from my mistakes now let's just dive in smite gives you the ability to build six items to augment your characters stats all items in the game have attributes that signify what you're going to get when they are purchased for gold that means you have six items to get your character beat to be as useful in their given role as possible here's how I think about building your first three to four items are what I'm going to be calling the core of your build the core of your bill does not change too much game the game but it is very important to do what your goal is for the late-game so let's talk about this if I'm playing support the core of my build would be defensive items that augment both my defense and my team's defense so items like heart word amulet for instance yet if I'm playing mid I would need to build into a more damage oriented core to have the ability to deal damage throughout the entire game therefore defense would not be a part of my core in mid so that takes care of the first three to four items what constitutes the core of any God's build is dependent on what the god is and what the gods play style is and for the sake of time I will not be covering every single god here it's just not feasible if you have a specific god you want to see me cover leave a comment I'll get to it eventually but that means we still have two to three more items that fall into the Flex category and this is where I see most players get confused and begin to make some mistakes the items you build in these final spots directly relate to how the game has been going for you and what things you're trying to prove or augment going into the late game let's look at two different examples from all the different walks of life across the smite map the first example being nausea in the jungle if I am nausea the core of my build would be let's say boots Jotuns and transcendence if things start going really poorly for me and I'm really far behind I don't think it would be beneficial for me to continue to build into damage therefore I would want to be tankier so I would opt to build into void shield spirit robe and mantle of discord to round out that build now on the contrary if I got super far ahead as nausea that I would want to build the rest of my build to help take someone off the map as quickly as possible and really augment my damage so I would often a rune Forge hammer Death Bringer and like I don't know heartseeker something you know power oriented it all depends on how the game goes the second example is something like Caffery support again as a support the core of my build would be something along the lines of like boots gauntlet of Thebes and like sovereignty or heartwood amulet depending on which carry is the bigger problem at that point now if I was behind it would be obvious that we're gonna be doing some base and tower defense so I would build in the emperor's armor Shogun's Kesari and maybe a spirit robe you know these team oriented items that augment those around me in the structure in this case with emperor's armor now if my team was ahead this would shift to me not being under towers as much so the flexible part of this build would have to change to something like hi to the urchin because it would be easier to stack if we're ahead spirit robe for my own sustainability and maybe something more team-oriented in that last spot like the Shogun's Kesari again because i like that item but that very much depends on what ADC is on my team so from our examples the one thing I want you to take away is that your build is not locked in from the beginning of the game if you're getting farmed in mid build a defensive item if you're super far ahead and solo Lane try flexing into some hybrid damage and defense items that you can get more damage Oh with your lead builds are meant to be flexible if we were meant to build the same six items every game they wouldn't give us so many different items to choose from I hope this all makes sense again if there are specific gods you want to hear my opinion on how to build them leave that in the comment section along with any questions you might have that's all for now I'll see you guys in the next video and have yourselves a casual day take care now
