Medusa removes her mask revealing her true face, delivering a powerful blast from her horrifying Gorgon gaze. Enemies take damage and are stunned if they are looking at Medusa. Enemies not looking at Medusa take 85% damage and are slowed. Enemy gods that are killed during Medusa's gaze will turn to a stone statue and remain behind as a reminder to others.

Summary

Not much to say, 40% cd, 2.5 aspd with Viper Shot active.

Acid Spray makes it easy to put pressure on enemy lanes, pretty safe and powerful clear. Alright poke damage from splash on gods behind initial target.

Lacerate gods if safe for extra damage and root + free shots on target, or simply to reduce the enemies healing. Otherwise, use as escape.

Petrify and Viper Shot when available and delete the enemy.

Can purchase Titan's Bane earlier if required, but probably unlikely.

What mode is this for?

robotomon | April 1, 2019 7:06am
I would use this in Conquest and Clash. Can't really speak for Arena/Joust as I'm not a big fan of items which stack in those modes like Transcendence.
For arena, I use Hydras instead of Trans

For Conquest, I'd go Mage's Blessing/morning star + potions or Charged Morningstar + potions. I'd then get Warrior Tabi, finish off Transcendence, then buy Soul Eater, The Crusher, Jotunn's Wrath, and Titan's Bane. This will give you that 40% CDR, attack speed, power, lifesteal, 25 flat pen, and TB's % pen.

For Clash I'd skip the blessing and go straight into charged morningstar, but I would still buy warrior tabi before I finished trans.

Improvements:

Start 1: Mage's Blessing/ Hunter's Blessing, Morningstar, 3 x Healing Potion and 2x Multi Potions.

Start 2: Charged Morningstar, 3 x Healing Potions, 3 x Mana Potions (or Muli Potions.

Start 3: Hunter's Blessing, Spiked Gauntlet, 2 x Healing Potion and 2 x Multi Potions.

Start 4: Hunter's Blessing, Cudgel, 1 x Healing Potion and 2 x Mana Potions.





Build 1: Transcendence, Warrior Tabi, The Crusher, The Executioner, Qin's Sais, Titan's Bane (or Bloodforge). Sell boots for either Odysseus' Bow or Bloodforge or Titan's Bane when you get Elixir of Speed.

Build 2 (Crit): Devourer's Gauntlet, Ninja Tabi, The Executioner, Poisoned Star, Deathbringer, Wind Demon, sell boots for Bloodforge or Atalanta's Bow or Silverbranch Bow when you get Speed Elixir.

Build 3, next patch: Warrior Tabi, Ichaival, Asi, The Executioner, Qin's Sais, Titan's Bane/ Bloodforge. Asi seems pretty pricy though so maybe this build isn't the way to go.

Build 4: Transcendence, Warrior Tabi, Soul Eater, The Crusher, Brawler's Beat Stick, last item assumed Titan's Bane or The Executioner.

Also make Beads, Aegis and Blink Rune the main relic options. Shouldn't be building bracer, phantom or shell.
