So lately I've been trying to AP Mid a lot, mostly do to there being more ranged mages than ranged assassins. As much as I like Gods like Ao Kuang (Who tends to get picked very quickly), hebo, and Zeus; Hel seems to have some sort of appeal (probably the healing) that the others don't.

My main problems is I can not find a proper build. I've tried Spear of the Magus, but just get killed super fast. Tried soul eater], but I don't have a whole lot of damage, I'm just a bit tanky. I've thought about using [[doom orb because it's cheap, or warlocks sash. But once I decide on one of these items, I'm not sure of what to grab next. Getting two different stacks is nice, but I'm still going to be squishy. I've seen in the guides that someone recommended reinforced boots, but to me, there isn't much to build off of after that.

I dunno, I might be a little crazy and sleep deprived, haha. What do you guys recommend?

Try going mid with Hand of the Gods and Meditation. Immediately get the Protection Buff right when minions spawn. This will give you great defense early game (+50 physical/magical protection) and with Hel's heals will make you nigh unkillable. Continue to get Protection Buff everytime it respawns. This coupled w/ Meditation will give you almost limitless lane sustain.

After that I'd suggest either Doom Orb, Boots of the Magi or Spear of the Magus.

I don't particularly care for this strategy but it is trending right now because of the decisive advantage the Protection Buff gives early game. At the moment Protection Buff is OP, so this strategy should work or at least level the playing field against those that are using it.

In the next patch they are nerfing the Protection Buff so I don't know if this will work in the long run, but from what I've seen at the moment, it is a winning strategy.

I'll give it a shot next game. I tend to build my characters as a support/tank, so when I go mid, I kinda mess up and lose my lane super quick.

I'm in the same boat as you. I'm so used to playing tanky/support characters that is difficult for me to play squishies.

Let me know how it works out for you! Hope it helps!

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.
