the true healer guide to Aphrodite
(Excuse me for my bad english, its not my langage)
This is a build based on my knowledge about Aphrodite playing.
It will tell about how to be aware to provide correct heal for ur team.
This is my first guide so dont be rude ;)
Aphrodite are very difficult to play well, cause its not a dps or a support god, but the only real healer god of the game.
The skills are only made to work well if ur linked to another god.
Ur not the one in front line, u need to keep in mind, ur only here to make balance and heal ur team because ur weak as a fly without them.
But if u provide good healing and take care of ur team u will be granted to be protect and make the difference in arena or conquest or joust.
So lets start with arena.
Many change in this build, but always the same goal, heal but now with update of jalousness to kill all the vilain !!!
In the beginning u dont need the last level of boots but u need magical power, to heal well and doing some damage so its a good compromise to dont spend all ur money in boots and take this
After some farming u can take the shoes of the magi, cause u need the penetration effect and u can beginning earning the first part for the chronos pendant (too decrease cooldown)
Take care in the next 5 lvl cause ur seriously weak and mana heater dont be efraid stay behind ur team heal as many as u can and farm to get Ethereal staff, this item is a good compromise of expend durability and magical power.
Now u got enought to get the Soul reaver because of its passive, but mainly because of the mp and mana given
but its not enought some of us still dying so in order become more powerfull u can take the rod of tahuti, 125% of magical power !!!
For a good finish and make some kill (if u dont do some yet) take the spears of the magus or if u got enought(probably in joust or conquest) take the spears of desolation and be sorry for all ur enemy.
This skill order is based on healing play and ur need too charge some item.
Pros
Very good healing power, skill spamming and now destructive power.
Cons
U are aphrodite, ur extremely weak at the begginning, so if ur team dont care about u, u will become a feeding machine...
The most important think to never forget STAY BEHIND all the time(always true, but now u can eventualy take some risk).
U need to move quick and think about the next move of ur loved one(change ur lover to provide heal to all team), u will choose guardian its an error, choose the warrior or assasins first, guardian are here to die(joking, but they dont need u often than the other class), and mage or hunter are behind like u normaly.
Constantly keep an eye on other team mate to provide healing or invulnerability when someone need it.
Use "back off" as many as u can, but in the right time and not only to kill minions.
Stun assasins first, and dps mage, and warrior, and hunter(if u can, cause they normaly are far away from u, i said normaly)
If u do ur job u will be the focus one, but ur team will provide some protection if they arent .sshole.
As resume STAY BEHIND and heal, its ur job now, but killing is also ur pleasure.
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.

If you want a true healer build, you probably want to include lotus crown for the shield it gives. I also prefer chronos pendant over Breastplate of Valor because the MP5 you get will benefit your soul mate thanks to your passive. Lastly, and maybe most importantly, Obsidian Shard over Spear of the Magus is a mistake. The most destructive part of this kit is love birds and their dot damage applies magus stacks over 3 seconds so you get more damage out of it.
I would also say level up love birds before back off, get them both to max level before you put a second point into kiss or undying love.
I'm using a build based on these suggestions, and I've made it to mastery VII in a couple of weeks. However, I'm still searching for ways to improve this build for arena. It takes at least 5 minutes before I can heal a lot and fast.
Also, this isn't just a healing build, I make about 30k healing/30k player damage in every game.
Except maybe I would still prioritize Undying Love over Back Off!, as this is a healer build, and each point in your ult is worth it.
I would also say level up love birds before back off, get them both to max level before you put a second point into kiss or undying love.
Overall the stats are lesser, but you get them right from the start and no need to stack.
Also, if you go mainly for healing, you can replace penetration for more power.
Switching Obsidian Shard for Rod of Tahuti would give you better healing.
