New in SMITE: Nu Wa Rework and Zeus Remodel

Updated God: Nu Wa

General

Nu Wa has undergone a total visual makeover.

Strength of Wood - Passive

After 5 successful basic attacks, Nu Wa's next basic attack will root enemies.

Mysterious Fog

Nu Wa condenses moisture into fog at her location which then rolls forward away from her. She and all allies are stealthed while inside the fog, and have increased movement speed. Attacking breaks the stealth effect. Enemies that run into the fog take 50/100/150/200/250 + 50% of her magical power as damage, and continue to take 20% of that damage again every second they are in the fog. Cooldown 15s. Cost 70/75/80/85/90.

Clay Soldiers

Nu Wa conjures Clay Soldiers from the earth. These soldiers have health equal to 200 plus 20% of Nu Wa's maximum health, and deal 20/30/40/50/60 damage with basic attacks. Enemies hit by their initial charge will take damage and have their magical protections reduced by 5/10/15/20/25 for 2s. Cooldown 18s. Cost 60/70/80/90/100.

Shining Metal

Nu Wa launches a mass of shining metal, dealing 90/140/190/240/290 + 50% of her magical power to all enemies it hits. If it hits one of her Clay Soldiers, it explodes, dealing 30/60/90/120/150 in additional damage and stunning enemies for 1/1.2/1.3/1.4/1.5s. Cooldown 10. Cost 60.

Fire Shards

Nu Wa flies up into the clouds, gaining visibility on all enemy gods, and summoning fire shards from the sky to deal 100/175/250/325/400 + 50% of her magical power as damage to each of them. Cooldown 110. Cost 100.
