Main Items for Mercury
Picking up
Golden Bow will give
Mercury +35% physical power, 10% critical strike chance, and 5% movement speed while also giving
Mercury a 15 ft radius of 50% of
Golden Bow's damage on his AA's.
Golden Bow on
Mercury will help him clear minion waves, and jungle buffs very fast which will help him out in the jungle, and in any lane he decides to gank while also poking at enemy gods that are within the 15 ft radius.

Warrior Tabi is a good choice for
Mercury since it gives him 30% Physical power, 9% attack speed, 18% movement speed, and +15 Physical pen, and as we all know in Smite boots are essential to almost any build you will see unless you are one of those kinds of player that for some reason don't build them.

Mercury is an assassin like probably some of your favorite gods such as
Loki. Like
Loki a
Deathbringer is amazing on
Mercury for the critical hit damage it provides their AA's, and for
Mercury his
Made You Look acts just like an AA which means the critical hit damage will apply to this skill which will do a ton of damage, and will act as a nice poke at enemy gods or as a way to finish someone off if you don't wan't to get up close, and personal.

RAGE!!! You pretty much will see this item on almost ALL physical gods like these 2 ranged physicals
Neith, and
Artemis or these 2 melee physical assassins
Loki, and
Arachne.
Rage is good on gods such as
Loki, and for this guide
Mercury, because it gives its user 20% physical power, +30% critical strike chance, 15% attack speed. For
Rage if you don't get a critical strike on the enemy gods you are attacking, the damage will build up 10% every time your AA's don't crit. This passive can build up to 5 stacks before it probably insta kills your target unless you kill them during the time it takes for you to build up the 5 stacks lol.

If you insist like I do on building some lifesteal then
Bloodforge is the perfect item to build on
Mercury late game.
Bloodforge is amazing on
Mercury, because it will give you him extra +40 physical power, +20% physical lifesteal, and for its passive it will give
Mercury +5 physical power, +2 physical lifesteal every time you land a successful AA on an enemy god or minion which is very useful since most of
Mercury's damage out put is in his AA's.
____________________________________________________________________________________________
Titan's Bane is an item that provides the user with +30% physical power, and as a passive
Titan's Bane will give you 33% physical penetration on all of your physcial attacks. For
Mercury Titan's Bane is a must have late game for those tanky gods like
Ymir for an example. With
Titan's Bane Mercury also gains the opportunity to start boxing with gods such as
Hercules or
Vamana which would normally build something like a
Witchblade or a
Runeforged Hammer and become almost unkillable for most physical gods.

Starter Items, and Actives
Bumba's Mask. This item is strongly recommended for any jungling god such as Bakasura. Bumba's Mask essentially gives 30 hp, allows the player to get a full gold bonus from jungle camps, and get a 10% heal off of the camps as well. Below I will have a picture, and a description of the conquest jungle layout.

Helpfull and reliable !
Keep up the good work !
Meditation is for lower lvl players (I get how it can look like I'm being a **** about it, that is not my intention). Read this in a happy kind of tone :)
The faster you can manage to stop using Meditation the better!
There is basically not a single god that it would be accepted on in higher lvl play (ranked etc). Except maybe Aphrodite due to Loving Embrace.
Some would say "oh but Bacchus is so mana hungry that he needs it to be able to stay drunk early game". Yes he does, but why would you need to stay drunk early game?!? would be my answer to that. Belly Flop is all the cc you need.
Learn to manage your mana, if you want to get good at the game. (I use Meditation on Ao Kuang, but that is just because I'm a scrub when it comes to playing mid).
Keep up the work and I wish your brother good luck and hopefully a healthy recovery :)
I know I only have meditation in my builds for mostly if you get said or mostly any god in assault.

I personally don't like meditation. I just find that other actives are much better late game. You already get the 15 mp5 from Bumba's while in the jungle. If I'm mana starved, I'll just buy some mana pots to save the active slot. Also, I really like sprint on Mercury because of his passive. You can just run circles around your enemies while punching them.
kk well sorry but I right now don't have the time to update if you take a look at Mercury's main page I wrote something to inform people.
That is extremely unfortunate. I hope you get better soon XD
I also hope to see more info soon. I shall be watching... like a mutha****in eagle.
Lol im updating some "sexy text" as we speak while I listen to the Creature livestream on twitch / smitegame
I also hope to see more info soon. I shall be watching... like a mutha****in eagle.
