Soo.. just as a topic of stimulating discussion, are Boots of Celerity even marginally useful for any god? Do they even have any point in the game? I wouldn't have known they existed if I didn't accidentally notice them one day. I guess if you want to be super fast for some reason they might make sense. Mercury because he gets a physical power buff based on movement speed bonuses?

some say it is usefull for gods that dont have a dash/jump like ares or ymir, it is for the faster rotation.

Ymir, if and only if you don't get hit on your way to the enemy, since he's the only viable tank without a gap closer.

Even then, I'd rather have Reinforced Greaves to avoid any CC that could stop me from getting there.

I saw a lot of first day Mercury's overestimating their passive scaling and picking it up. Granted, his slow damage bonus upon mobing combined with the 35% made for a nice initial gank, but it's still useless. His scaling just is NEVER enough to justify building movement speed for the sake of it. I get boots, fatalis (as an AA based assassin, the fact that he's mercury is a sidenote. People like him, ne zha, and bakasura pick it up), and a Golden Bow for the AoE proc on his Made You Look, again the speed is secondary.
Winged Wand, Boots of Celerity, Witchstone, etc are all useless on him.

Figured. Was just curious about them. Seems like some items could use reworks to make them useful at all.

Yeh only god I find a use for this is ymir. I build max speed max cooldown and team up with a carry and stun wall slow combo and they dead.

Ymir, mostly, but I've had some luck on Anubis. (Yes, I'm serious. His passive grants natural penetration and his scalings are good enough that 60 magical power isn't much of a difference).

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.
