So I've been playing Freya for a while, and recently someone posted PonPon's build on reddit, and he builds her with AD. And ingame I have seen others do the same. Can anyone explain to me why you would build her with AD, and what playstyle they use when building AD isntead of AP?

because everything she does is Auto Attacks and her ult,now with AP you have a lot of burst on freya but with AD you have a lot more sustain damage inbetween your buffs.

thats the only reason, different play style. Burst or sustain.
if you need anything just PM or ask me when I'm streaming here

What items do you then build on her as AD?

Take a look at Demonic Grip for example. It adds Physical Power, but also has a passive that reduces Magical Protections on an enemy. And who has two buffs that buff her PHYSICAL AD with MAGICAL DAMAGE? That is right, Freya.

The reason you would build AD on her is the same reason that you would build it on other Gods: Because each point of Physical Power equals one AD damage (without enemy protections in the mix). If you build her AD, you get the damage of a Carry as well as the buffs from her Pulse and Irradiate.

Now, I build her as a Hybrid, starting with Movement speed early game, Attack Speed and Physical Power early to mid, and Magical Power late game.

Like Animus said, burst or sustain, but you can also do a mixture of both. That is what's great about Freya. If you experiment with builds on her, you may get a surprisingly great outcome.

But when you think about it, Demonic grips only good thing is the passive of it?

But why would you rate demonic grip higher than a magic damage item that gives lets say 100 AP + 20 AD?

No no, there is much more to Demonic Grip than the passive. 25% Attack Speed for one, which is absolutely amazing. +30 Physical Power. The passive is nice, but that's not the sole good thing about the item.

However, with Freya the passive of Demonic Grip is most important, depending on how you choose to build her. Like I said, I build her Hybrid.

There is Brisingamen's Blessing, which turns Magical Power into Physical Power and that's something to remember as well. It adds to her AD.

The biggest reason that people would build her AD is because she is focused on her auto-attacks. You could build her with the AD of a Carry AND have the extra buff from her abilities. She is an up in your face God.

Can you show me your full build with that item? It is hard to rate it, with that item alone.

Because in my mind Freya does not need more Attack Speed than a fatalis.

Check out my Freya build. It focuses on using Attack Speed to burst an enemy down faster than they can hit you.

SmiteFire & Smite

Smite is an online battleground between mythical gods. Players choose from a selection of gods, join session-based arena combat and use custom powers and team tactics against other players and minions. Smite is inspired by Defense of the Ancients (DotA) but instead of being above the action, the third-person camera brings you right into the combat. And, instead of clicking a map, you use WASD to move, dodge, and fight your way through the detailed graphics of SMITE's battlegrounds.
