Hello everyone I play SMITE on console and I've been noticing Artemis and her ability and how major of a threat she is to a game when she is running Rage and Death bringer sure it's an OP combo already and anyone one can run that but on an Artemis it just seems to shine a lot better... Is it just me or what's up?

Artemis has some of (if not THE) best dps late game due to her passive Still Target, and her attack speed steroid Vengeful Assault. Fighting an Artemis late game is extremely hard simply because she can dish out so much damage so quickly, even against tanks.

HOWEVER, she's one of the worst hunters early game, with bad lane clear, no escapes (ie: leaps/dashes) and only one damaging ability that she can reliably hit outside of her ultimate. Basically, in order to beat Artemis, you have to focus her early game and try to win before she can really get online. Regardless, because she's so weak early game, she's actually considered one of the weakest hunters in the game, even with most meta changes. Albeit, she isn't very hard to play so it's probably not too hard to find dominant Artemis's in low level play.

I am the most foul, cruel and bad tempered rodent you've ever set eyes upon!.. Oh, her? Yes, well... she's with me.

Feel free to PM me with any questions or comments. I can offer feedback on gameplay and BBcoding tips, as well as moderation help if needed.

Actually Malice and Deathbringer is a much better combo for Artemis. Rage isn't a great item atm.

But no, she's not overpowered at all.
She's a bit like Anubis in that she has a pure offense kit and high dos, but there is essentially nothing else's oher, so she can easily be overwhelmed and shut down, provided you know how, due to her lack of flexibility.

True I have noticed in early game the she is pretty easy to beat but this won't stop me from being concerned when I see someone using her their starter item is "Death's toll". Now all that matter's is who is the Artermis player pushing with? Which normally it's a tank.

Really now? I didn't know about that because normally I see that combo and also "Devourer's Gauntlet". But I understand on what you both are saying again guess it's just me and it really doesn't help when my team just feeds her.

Feeding any god is a bad idea. even feeding a (good) tank player. You won't be able to kill him while meanwhile he and his teammate are killing him.
If fed really well on the right tank they can even kill you XD.
