Hi-RezErez posted these changes for the Public Test Server:

The Public Test server will have a new version in the next 24 hours if all goes well.

There are some significant changes that we plan on testing to compare the three versions and player preferences. (Current live, previous PTS, and upcoming PTS)

The major changes include a different item system with the following feature:

**** Please remember that some of these values may change and not be final ****

There will be 3 types of items:
Stat items = Items that only provide stats
Special Items = Item that provide special passives
Active items = Items that allow you to have an active ability (same as current purchased abilities)

Stat items will be bought using gold. and you can buy as many as you afford. Special and Active Items will be free. However, the slots for these items will unlock only as you level up, according to this chart:

Special and Active Items
Level 1: Unlock Active Item slot #1
Level 5: Unlock Special Item slot #1
Level 8: Unlock Special Item slot #2
Level 10: Unlock Active Item slot #2
Level 11: Unlock Special Item slot #3
Level 14: Unlock Special Item slot #4

da fuq, Might ruin the game, or make it blow up in popularity.

Lol, thanks.

However, that's very interesting.... I mean, granted, they don't want to have a completely same item system as LoL (LoL and Dota have very different item system and stat systems so that's the main differentiating point about them, and the heroes of course), but this may not work it doesn't seem... right.

I personally really like how they added all the new purchasable special effects, but it may screw up the game as per say, the 30% Crowd Control Reduction. That seems like a no brainer and is very useful in nearly every situation on anyone, and it would make CC just not as potent at all and may ruin the initiating power of Crowd Control initiators like Hades.

Stats... I don't really like this for some reason I can't put my finger on....

Also, removal of Fatalis. Someone who is long gone must be happy.

Don't be ridiculous, The One Who Shall Not Be Named is never happy.

Now talking seriously, it's a ballsy change. It's kind of impossible to pass judgement before actually trying it, but boy, I can already hear the butthurt!

This is rather terrifying in ways.

I'm not against change, but this is giant. I guess I'm only hesitant to try these ideas because I've invested so much time with the game as it is already. If this does create a good system though, this individuality could very well put SMITE on the map, so to speak.

The more I think about it, the more I can see the appeal to this set up though. It allows almost complete customization with your builds. With the abandonment of items with set stats, you can pick a combination of any stats you want without being pidgeonholed by EVERYTHING that certain items come with.

Very interesting, good post!

BTW: You can still get , just spec your character with only movement speed, attack speed, and CD reduction! HOW USEFUL!

This sound stupid as hell. I hope they allow a "Classic Smite" option.

I've been think alot about this today

and so far this is what i think:

you guys said that this allows more customization
but all AD carrys are going to have the same upgrades first

all tanks are going to have the same upgrades

ect...
now I'm talking about high lvl play not your random pug for fun and trolling

this looks different but i feel like its more complicated just go make the same mistake
focus was a good start for differcety but this feels like a step down

i mean games wont last long enough to let you build what you want
early game you need the best upgrades and if you don't you'll get slaugtered

also like buddha said
the passives are almost no brainers about whats good
there used to me stats preventing us from from taking good passives
now they're not stopping us and we get the same 6 passives on each god

the item system wasn't perfect or balanced
but this is just complicating a dumbed down game

if you need anything just PM or ask me when I'm streaming here

That's good for gods like Freya - no need to max one stat.
2-3 Stat Items of near each type are great for her...

Interesting changes - looking forward to play this
