Introduction

Welcome to my build for Freya! I find that she is a pretty fun mage to play as. I enjoy her quite a bit. In all honesty these are really the recommended items in a certain order. I hope you like it!

Skills


You use Freya's 1, Irradiate, for a buff to fight up close. Her basic attacks do additional magic damage based on her magical power. You can use this as a clear.


Use her 2, Pulse, to fight from a far. This buff makes her basic attacks ranged. Magical damage done is based on her magical power. Pulse also slows enemies in the effected radius. The area effect and slow are lost when Irradiate, is active. You can use this as a clear.


Her 3, Banish, pulls enemy gods into the air. While in the air enemies cannot be hit or take action. Banish is great for getting gods off of her back. If you need to get away from a pesky god that is slightly too fast, turn pull her 3 on them and run. Instead of using her 3 as an evade you can also use it as a way to catch up. If the enemy god you are going against starts to run, pop her 3 on them catch up and box them in with her 1!


Freya's ultimate, Valkyrie's Discretion, is great to get out of damage and quickly execute an enemy. You can use this as an evade, to attack, or both! She can fire down up to 4 blasts in the amount of time she is in the air. She cannot be hit while in the air and the ultimate can be canceled at any time. The damage per blast increases based on her Magical Power.


Freya's passive, Brisingamen's Blessing, grants her 15% additional life steal.

Ability Combos



Use Pulse to do damage to enemies from a far, Banish to pull them up in the air to catch up to them, and Irradiate to finish them off up close. Banish is skippable, or could go first.
This combo could also be reversed beginning with Irradiate and ending with Pulse.

All combos can be ended with Valkyrie's Discretion.

Items

Starter




Vampiric Shroud gives you magical power, health, and MP5 for the very early game. Killing an enemy also restores 10 health and mana.

Item 1




Next buy your shoes. Shoes of the Magi gives you magical power, magical penetration, and movement speed.

Item 2




Next buy some lifesteal. Polynomicon gives you magical power, magical lifesteal, and mana. It also gives you 8 seconds after using an ability for your basic attack to do 75% of your magical power into magical damage once every 3 seconds.

Item 3




Next you choose either Telkhines Ring or Demonic Grip based on the game. Both give magical power and attack speed. With Telkhines Ring you do an additional 35 magical damage. With Demonic Grip your basic attacks reduce enemies' magical protection by 12% every 3 seconds at a max of 3 stacks. Use Demonic Grip if the enemies are buying magical protections against you.

Items 4 and 5




The next two items you build based on how the game is going. You are going to build both items, but the order may change game to game. Hastened Fatalis gives you attack and movement speed. When you hit an enemy with a basic attack the movement speed debuff is removed from you. Rod of Tahuti gives you magical power and MP5. It increases your magical power by 25%. "How do I choose which one to build first?" you might ask. Well, if you feel your attacks aren't doing enough damage build Rod of Tahuti first. If you think you are doing enough damage, go for Hastened Fatalis. I usually build Hastened Fatalis first.

Item 6




Finally, build Obsidian Shard. It gives you magical power and you gain 33% magical penetration.

Pros / Cons

Summary

Freya is a great mage and her update looks amazing! Her kit is very well balanced and versatile, making for great gameplay.
