I say Nox should be an assassin.

She has an ability that applies the darkness debuff (Can be a very skill based shot). Every other ability adds bonus effects to hit. Just like Hades.

One ability could make her teleport to them if they have the debuff. Another one can make them blind.

Well, every mage is already an assassin in this game.

And I don't think letting a ranged mage teleport close is a good idea, unless you want to make her melee.

A melee magical assassing with a teleport could be fun, kind of reminds me of kassadin in a way, hirez hadn't done mid lane assassins yet so that could actually create very interesting design.
never forget dawngate and never forgive EA. Freia will hunt them for eternity.

The thing is, in my humble opinion, that Nox is meant to box out mages: nothing else. Silence them, make them take damage per ability, dodge hits with her 1, deal constant damage with her 3.

She sucks because she's only good at that. But she's DAMN good at that, and will be better.

Nox is bad at cq and worse in arena.

Sure nox can own solo IF the enemy jungler lets them. So really, she is just a feeding station. Lack of escape means everything in smite.

"Box out mages?" ROFL.

Why bother with silences and cast punishments when you can just, you know, KILL them? Who the cares if you can kill casters when they're killing you back twice as fast, thanks to their damage and CC and such.

Seriously, the idea is a specialization is that they must be GOOD at their niche.

I do get what you're talking about. But who cares about a 1 second silence and a punish mechanic when Isis has a 1.8 sec silence, a 1-1.5 sec stun, and way more burst damage? Oh, and her silence isn't a skillshot, either.

Do you know who is a REAL anti-mage? Chaac. His ultimate is a three second silence that deals more damage than Nox's kit by itself. He's damn good at killing casters of any type.

I think her DESIGN was to box out mages. Right now she's complete and utter **** at it, but I think that was the intent behind the design.
Thanks to Ferrum for making the sig pic! He's beast af people.

I knew that, it was just that Shavul said she was GOOD at it.

The baffling thing is, is that a "control" mage means to "control" the battlefield, not "control" enemy mages. An anti-mage is just a specialized form of a typical archetype like ADC or tank. HiRez must have assumed the latter, which makes me think they don't ever play other MOBAs ever.

Well, thing is I didn't play Nox but I saw some noxes push out some other players to oblivion in the solo lane. Like I said, it was a humble opinion.

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.
