Personally, I go for the sais on assassins and ADCs and blades on bruisers. Usually as assassins your abilities will knock off a massive chunk of health right from the get-go (like Assassinate on Loki or Brutalize on Fenrir), so by the time you're having to land basic attacks you'll be getting a huge advantage from the bonus. As ADC, you'll tend to be hitting gods that have already lost a lot of health to ganks or during the teamfight, so you'll get more of an advantage there as well.

On bruisers, it's likely you're not finishing off enemies or fully taking them down alone (if you're initiating teamfights), so I tend to go with the blades since I'd be more likely to hit a god with full or nearly full health than a god nearly dead.

sais is better on most gods really, there are a few scenarios where blades could be better, but even then the difference is so minimal that unless you really really do the math on it and see exactly how you should be using auto attacks (how many you have to do to targets with full health, how much health the target have to have, how much pen and protections etc to get an exact number on it) you have to do to get more out of them.

So unless you want to do a ton of calculations I would say just go with the sais :P


To get much out of the blades you need a god that focuses on auto attacking from the start of engagements, so gods like Bakasura and Artemis etc. but even on those I would say sais is better just because the shred someone down to where the sais are better so fast and sais is much better for finishing ppl off :)

Sais are also good people players aren't used to an attack dealing more damage as their health gets low. They tend to underestimate you and stick around in fights, and Sais is also good for opportunistic kills. Seals the deal for me.

Yeah, like blades might give you more overall damage. But sais will always give you higher burst damage when you need to finish someone off, which is a pretty big deal :)

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.
