Build Summary

Starter

Notes Rush Book of Thoth and stay within a quick hop to the tower while you are vulnerable.

Book of Souls

Mana Potion

Multi Potion

Purification Beads

Full build

Notes Book of Thoth provides a lot of power, MP5, and mana to start

Warlock's staff also expands your power, health, and mana pool

Book of the Dead then capitalizes on your mana pool. Along with Warlock's staff, you have good survivability against burst damage damage (e.g. Thor, Poseidon)

The order of items 4-6 will depend on your opponents. If you need anti-heal, take Divine Ruin #4. If you are dealing with a lot of magical protections, take Charon's Coin first. If you are facing a bunch of squishies or few protections, take Rod of Tahuti first.

At full power you have massive power, anti-heal, and 40% penetration.

Discordia's Skill Order Notes Approach is simple. You generally want to maximize your poke (Unruly Magic + Strife) first since they are your primary damage dealers. Then alternate Erratic Behavior and Golden Apple as they become available. However, I do like to put a point into Erratic Behavior once I reach level 9 to help with cooldown reduction.

Unruly Magic

1 X

Discordia sends an orb of unruly magic to a location that damages any enemies it hits along the way. At that location it will break down into 6 minor projectiles that fire out in all directions, damaging any enemies hit and bouncing off of walls.

Ability Type: Projectile
Orb Damage: 85 / 135 / 185 / 235 / 285 (+75% of your Magical Power)
Minor Damage: 20 / 30 / 40 / 50 / 60 (+10% of your Magical Power)
Range: 55
Cost: 50 / 55 / 60 / 65 / 70
Cooldown: 12s

Strife

2 A

Discordia creates an area of Strife that damages all enemies hit. If 2 or more enemy gods are hit at the same time they will be afflicted by Madness for 1s, forcing them to attack each other for additional damage. The same is true for minions. If only a single target of one type is hit then it becomes Rooted for 1s instead.

Ability Type: AoE
Damage: 80 / 120 / 160 / 200 / 240 (+60% of your Magical Power)
Madness Damage Per Hit: 10 / 20 / 30 / 40 / 50 (+10% of your Magical Power)
Range: 60
Cost: 60 / 65 / 70 / 75 / 80
Cooldown: 13s

Erratic Behavior

3 B

Discordia leaps a short distance and then creates an area of confusion where she lands that persists for 5s. While inside the area she becomes stealthed, gains bonus movement speed, and her 1st and 2nd ability cooldowns are reduced by an additional amount of time every .5s she remains in the area. Attacking from the area will briefly reveal her.

Ability Type: Leap, Deployable
Movement Speed Buff: 20 / 25 / 30 / 35 / 40%
1 & 2 Cooldown Decrease Per Tick: 0.5 / 0.75 / 1 / 1.25 / 1.5s
Ultimate Cooldown Decrease Per Tick: 0.5s
Range/Radius: 40/15
Cost: 50 / 55 / 60 / 65 / 70
Cooldown: 13s

Golden Apple of Discord

4 Y

Discordia throws her Golden Apple of Discord that damages and passes through minions and bounces off of walls. If the Apple hits an enemy god it will damage them and force them to hold the Apple. Gods holding the apple will become intolerable, causing them to be Crippled, Intoxicated while they constantly boast. At the end of the duration, the Apple will detonate, dealing damage and spreading the effects to nearby gods.

Ability Type: Projectile
Initial Damage: 125 / 150 / 175 / 200 / 225 (+50% of your Magical Power)
Detonate Damage: 200 / 250 / 300 / 350 / 400 (+60% of your Magical Power)
1st Target Duration: 2s and AoE
Spread Targets Duration: 3s and Single Target
Range: 190
Cost: 100
Cooldown: 90s

Situational

Notes If you're getting dived by a lot of physical assassins (e.g. Thor, Ratatoskr, Arachne), Celestial Legion Helm gives you power and durability.

I rarely find magical damagers to be a challenge, but Genji's Guard is great in that instance.

If you are in a game where enemies are taking few protections, then I like to take Spear of Desolation (for max power + flat pen) or Ethereal Staff. The little stars from Unruly Magic make it very easy to hit multiple targets. Archmage's Gem is another high-power option.

Soul Reaver is an option I don't take often, but can be useful if you have a tank going for max health vs. protections.

Magi's Cloak if & only if you are just getting clobbered with crowd control and need some help.

Celestial Legion Helm

Genji's Guard

Spear of Desolation

Ethereal Staff

Archmage's Gem

Soul Reaver

Magi's Cloak

General Overview

With Discordia, you have great crowd control with Strife, area of effect damage with Unruly Magic & Golden Apple, and a nice escape that makes you invisible (Erratic Behavior). If you're careful, it can be very difficult for enemy gods to get ahold of you. However, if they do you are very squishy.

This build achieves very high magical power while reaching 40% penetration and greatly increasing your durability. The removal of boots has also removed the movement penalty associated with quickly double-stacking.

Im sorry but Book of the Dead is not a good item. Also you have no starter upgrade in this build...

Not Max Power.. 575/900 Power..

https://lmgtfy.app/#gsc.tab=0&gsc.q=hyperbole

In my calculations, it's looking like 905 power. Not sure where you get 575. If you just add up the BASE values of the items, that's 635, so you've already miscalculated.

But then you factor in Thoth's passive mana to power conversion of 10% of total mana (which looks to be 2,700 mana at level 20), and that's 635 + 270 = 905. Note that while the in-game bar seems to indicate a cap of 900 power, that's not in fact the case, you can definitely go above 900.

Finally, when considering Tahuti's passive, if you're hitting an enemy with less than half health, you're gaining bonus power equivalence, which = 1,131.25 power.

Nice guide

This is more a build than a guide. IMO this build can deal high damage because the total power is high and has flat and max % pen, but it doesn't take into account what I feel is by far her strongest capability; her kit provides a good amount of disruption potential, and there's no CDR to actually use her abilities near often enough.

+ Survivability is also hurting her potential. BotD provides that health shield and while it may allow you to survive some encounters where you otherwise wouldn't, you're not usually looking to take much damage anyway. You're poking from distance and backing off if things get dangerous, and hoping that your teammates will peel for you if they dive you. BotD isn't going to allow you to survive that situation. It's also built way too early...delaying in that build if you really did need anti-heal, where you'd typically want it much earlier in the build to also take advantage of the flat pen.

My preferred build would be to drop and , picking up and . I'd also personally drop and start with , likely building into (which gives you a different measure of survivability), but with an option for if I wanted that big burst potential at the start of a teamfight.

I wouldn't use your skill leveling; I think it's a bit whacky. Typically you want to level your ult when possible, followed by your 1, then your 2, then your 3. Your 1 should either be maxed at level 9 or 10, depending on if you want to put that 2nd point in your ult at 9 or not. Your 2 should be maxed by level 13.

Different strokes for different folks - her ult doesn't do as much damage as some other gods. Most games I'm top damage mostly through the 1/2 poke, with the ult to close kills as needed

I couldn't even begin to guess how many assassin dives I've survived due to the Warlocks/BoTD combo. It has to piss off the Thors/Arachnes/Thanatos players off so much.

I can agree that your build can deal damage, and that people have preferences. The only other thing I would point out is that the reason I feel she does better with more CDR than high power is due to her ability scaling; while good, it's not Anubis / Scylla / He Bo / Kukulkan high. So sure, power will help deal more damage, but being able to cast 2 rounds of abilities (one of which can cause madnessin a short teamfight is nice to have (without blowing your 3 just to increase your CDR).

I will admit I haven't tried Thoth / BotD on her, or at least not in a long time, and can imagine it'll save you in some situations. That said...I would expect Thor or Thana to not get enough damage off since they're more burst, but a decent Arachne is AA based and should be able to finish you off with just another couple basics, right?

Wouldn't build Thoth on anyone except Kuku atm, though Warlock's is a bit more attractive now. And Book of the Dead shouldn't be built, it's a worse Ethereal Staff.

I mean, I know, and thus I didn't recommend those items, but I was trying to explain my points without completely shutting down the creator's preferences.
