Introduction

Welcome to my guide for Da Ji, The Nine-Tailed Fox!

I am a casual player who primarily plays conquest. My Elo is top 1%, for a casual player, I primarily know what to do in the jungle role. Specifically on Da Ji.
remains my favored Jungler by far, thus this is a build for Da Ji in the Jungle role.

Do note: there are two builds above. The first is for the standard non-anti heal build, while the second is against healers or lifesteal.

This is my first SmiteFire guide, and I intend to update it, so feel free to comment on things that should be added/edited.

Regardless, I thank you for reading my guide and please upvote if it helped you!

Items

Item 1

is my preferred choice right after boots. Some players prefer to build after the boots, but I feel that the extra cooldown from will help you much more early on.

Item 2

has exceptional damage over time with her 1, adds on some extra DoT. If the enemy has a lot of heal or lifesteal, you're going to need to replace with to counteract some of that healing.

Pros / Cons

Pros:

Good burst damage
Great ult for teamfights or solo ganks
Good jungle and wave clear with her One Thousand Cuts
Insane DoT using her Horrible Burns

Cons:

Squishy
Her engage is also her escape Trickster Spirit
Early game is not the best

Gameplay

An idea of what to do
When you spawn pick buy the starting items that I showed in the build above. Some people choose to buy fewer potions and get the hand of the gods consumable. When items are bought go over to your speed camp and with you mid laner. Use your One Thousand Cuts to clear the camp. After the camp is cleared hit the jungle shrine and get the harpie camp.

After clearing harpies, head to the blue buff and make sure that the solo lane player will get the exp from the camp. Go to the mid lane and if your mid laner is out clearing the enemy mid lane, go get their red buff, if not get your red buff. Clear the mid exp camp and at this point, I see if I can gank duo lane, this usually goes well. Rinse and repeat this, looking for ganks and clearing camps. This is a very simple guide on what to do; things change every game; this is a great start.

If you need antiheal you would be getting it after boots, not 4th item

(105) |

Honestly IMO it depends a bit on how your team is building and the game is progressing. If you have had some impactful ults I would grab Jotunn's
or if your mage rushed divine you can delay it.

And since you got jotunn's you can still build it 3rd if healing was a bigger problem than expected. (it will delay the powerspike hydra's give but for antiheal it's often worth it)

-1

Just out of curiosity.. if you ever decided to build AA build what would that build would look like?

(13) |

You wouldn’t, because is an ability-based Assassin, not a hybrid or AA-based one.

(81) |

What Vini said. If you insist on going the AA route, then something like , , , , , ; you can add in situationally or as a boots replacement. Don't expect to be very successful with this route, though.

At most for an "AA" route I would just look at stone cutting and crusher, the other items just aren't good on her, at all.

Many thanks for the very detailed guide! Learned a lot! It's helped me get more kills for sure

You're welcome! Glad you enjoyed it.

I would just upgrade first due the clear faster in camps. I don't think you will lose so much upgrading this (except the burst but the damage will remain almost the same).

I semi agree here, recently I picked up Da Ji and I have loved this journey. When I play her, I bring her 2 up to level 3 early game, allowing for it to clear camps and minion waves extremely quick, however I immediately rush her 1 and finish her 3 before upgrading her 2 while maintaining level up of her 4 level up exactly as you have it.

(72) |

I usually upgrade her 2 to level 4, then I just upgrade 1, return to the last point on her 2 then her 3 and for last the 4 points on her ulti

(9) |

Good builds, nothing that really stands out to me that's wrong. However I would, (when you have the time), add some other sections to the guide such as a 'gameplay' section that goes through the various stages of the game for detailing how to play her.

Thank you for your input! I will definitely keep adding more to this.

Thank you for the updates!

No problem mate, I hope this guide keeps improving
