Smite’s The Odyssey Event Brings Balances in Patch 4.17

Hi-Rez Studios, News, Originals, PC, Platforms, PS4, Smite, Xbox One


The Odyssey is Smite‘s biggest event of the year. It is filled with, for better or for worse, exclusive and limited skins as well as pedestals, loading frames, ward skins, and more. While players do have to pay for gems to unlock many of the events exclusive rewards, they do not need to pay to experience the changes that are coming to the game for gods and items in the next patch.

You can check out some of the changes below.

Most notable among the changes is Bastet, whom is receiving a buff courtesy of her cats. When the cats from her ultimate are defeated by enemies she receives a stacking Physical Power buff until the ultimate ends. Warriors Odin, Sun Wukong , and Ravana, are being nerfed because of their recent performance in matches. Brawler’s Beatstick, which has been picked up recently not because of its anti-heal but because of its Penetration and price, has had its price increased from 2200 to 2350. For Mages, Raijin is receiving a buff, similar to the last patches, to ensure that he is being played, and Hel has been met with small nerfs to combat her high pick/ban potential.

Chiron:

  • Training Exercise: Fixed an issue where this ability could cleanse enemy gods.

Bastet:

  • Cat Call: Bastet will now gain a stacking Physical Power buff each time a cat is killed by an enemy or structure. This will not trigger when the cats naturally despawn.
