Items

Hey, sup. This is my first try of a build. Works pretty good for me. Some advice maybe?

Following I want to say something about the items to buy.

Start: Choose yourself if you need a ward...
One after the other. Replacements following...
Two items have to be replaced. I prefer the way mentioned: starter with the Deathbringer and after that to finish this build, remove Ichavail and buy Bloodforge or Poisened Star.

After finishing the build, you get nearly maximum attack speed resulting in a lot of nice crits besides a decent lifesteal. Works good for me. If you don't like that much speed, u can simply change the boots for higher physical power.

Skills

Passive - Lovestruck
Cupid stacks a heart whenever he hits an enemy to enhance his other abilities with 2 % extra damage per stack and different additions. That's one reason why I like to play him with such a high attack speed.
Heart Bomb gains the highest profit from it adding a nice stun.
It also increases the healing of Share The Love, nevertheless the healing isn't that strong as others in smite. His ultimate Fields Of Love also profits by it as it doubles the mesmerizing time from 1.5 to 3 seconds. I don't recommend concentrating on this because any damage dealt to the victims will release the from their mesmerisation.

Heart Bomb
Cupids main damage skill. He shoots a bomb at his enemy reducing it's movemenet speed by 20% and dealing an amount of damage directly and after 3 seconds it detonates dealing damage to the victim and all enemies around (radius 25). If Lovestruck is filled with 8 hearts it gets an additional stun for one second dealt to all enemies in range. The detonation is also inducted directly by it's carriers death. This could be used to stun an opposing god directly by killing and minion in range. It could be used to stop an escaping enemy or even finishing him.

Share The Love
Cupids healing skill. He drops 3 hearts or other "potions" depending on his skin which can be collected by yourself or your teammates. If one of your mates collecting them, you get mana back, slightly increased by your Lovestruck stack.

Flutter
Cupids escape or chasing skill. Beforehand it increases Cupids attack speed by 4% for each skill level. In addition he dashes foward in his direction leaving a trail behind which increases all teammates movement speed moving on it. As mentioned before it could be used to chase your victim or to escape from a fight as fast as possible.

Fields Of Love
Cupids ultimate. He's firing a field of arrows to the ground slowing and crippling all enemies preventing them from escaping with moevment abilities. After a few seconds the arrows explode dealing damage and mesmerize all enemies within the field for 1.5 seconds. Full Lovestruck stack doubles the time of mesmerisation. Mesmerized enemies are a easy target for your heart bomb so this is a good combo.

Hey Man,

Nice build but I think you shouldn't use Odysseus' Bow on Cupid (in fact you shouldn't use it :v) just because there are other items that gives nice attack speed and power. In my opinion you should put more damage in this build, maybe replace Ichaival to Bloodforge instead of Ody's Bow (or any other item with good amount of physical power), 'cause the little Cupid scales his skills very well such as 180% on Heart Bomb and 100% on Fields Of Love (up to 209% and 120% with Lovestruck).

Plus you have the other tips below...

Seems totally right. Thx for your advice. I'll update the guide later.

No problem man, I hope you continue doing this good job.

Oh, and I forgot to mention, you say that the mana restored when a friend get a heart is based on the Share The Love level, but in fact is in how much Lovestruck is stacked. Normal, it restores 30 mana per heart and fully stacked you get 34~35 per heart.

Maybe do The Executioner first than Poisoned Star is more interesting to gain protections reduction in mid game (when Cupid shines, so make things easy to you) and gives you nice attack speed and some power and then, you move into critics, but it is just a suggestion, test it and see if you like before change it ;)

Also you could mention that Heart Bomb makes the enemy move slower (20%). The same for Fields Of Love but it's 35%.

Hi Saubaer,

Some comments:
  • You don't need that much attack speed. In your build, when Wind Demon's passive is activated, you're going past the 2.5 AS cap. I'd suggest replacing Odysseus' Bow with Poisoned Star.

  • Deathbringer as a 1st crit item isn't really suggested. I'd either go Wind Demon or Poisoned Star first.

  • Heart Bomb can't be leveled to 5 until you hit level 9, and you have it at 8. The only other way you'd be able to level in the general way you're showing is to point skip, not putting a point into anything at level 8, and waiting until level 9 so you can actually max Heart Bomb while also putting a point into Fields Of Love. However, I don't think delaying a point is going to benefit you much.

    Fields Of Love really isn't all that much of a priority. The base damage at level 1 is somewhat low (220), though it does scale well with power. That said, there are no other benefits besides a small increase in base damage (80 per level). If you're looking to box more effectively, I'd just put a 2nd point into Flutter at level 8, finish off Heart Bomb at level 9, and continue working to max Flutter ASAP after that for the base AS. You can then level Share The Love and Fields Of Love as you prefer.

Thx for your comment. Fixxed the skills and will going to test the thing mentioned with Field of Love.
Replacing Odysseus's Bow with Poisened Star sounds interesting too.
For the first crit Item i choose the Deathbringwr because of the biggest chance here but i'll test this as well.
Going to update the guide later.

THX!

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.
