One thing that confuses me with Smite is why they keep changing existing god visuals not really making them better/worst just different.

Asian Market.

Also Nu Wa is different, for sure, she fits in more with the burst meta and I enjoy playing her more because gosh it sure is easier.

What's a good God/role to pick for learning Conquest?

Chang'e/Solo

You don't need to rotate until very late in the game, so you can learn how to 'win' a lane and to learn to assist the jungle with your one buff. All skills you can expand on for other roles. Chang'e because lol that sustain/survivability.

If you ever see me (littlecaroline) or Ezell (ezell) or Shubhat (shubhat) online, we can do a casual with you and walk you through it. Ezell offers mentoring programs where he will watch you stream the game and give you advice.

Mr.Unique-Name posted:

but Hel, Ra, and Aphrodite bring way too much damage and healing combined and force hard counters.

This game is one of hard counters?

Besides, those items and ults listed do a lot to shut down those three. Ever get caught in Odin's ult by those three? Sure hope you have a combat blink! Serqet got you? Sucks to be you! The fact that most of the items aren't '100%' isn't really a problem when you can be touched gently by an ability with divine ruin and be a lot less useful as a healer for the next 8 seconds, which is a very long time in a team fight. A slightly competent enemy team can make quick work of any of those three. I dunno man, watching Hel and Aphro in the SWC get destroyed makes me think most healers are okay or under powered.

Herc and Sylvanus on the other hand.

Mr.Unique-Name posted:

The thing with heals is they have more impact than just during fights. You can use those things and have a fight that ends with a disengage after a 1 for 1 then the team with the healer can immediately resume pushing, if the healer survived, while the other team has no choice but to back off. Even if they have Curse or those other counters, they're now at 50% against a team that's at 75% at least.

Earlier I only mentioned the effective health increase in fights, that was a mistake and I should have gone into more detail with my problems with healers.

For Ra and Hel, yes they have good lane push and can heal the wave, but they also both lack a good escape which makes them pushing not very safe. Aphro can't heal minions, and her ult can't save her from everything. High sustain is a perk for healers, but they suffer in a lot of other areas.

I play a lot of Hel and Aphro so I may be biased of course.

The technique I say new players should use is; find a god you like aesthetically and as a character. Then play them repeatedly even if their skills aren't the best, they're low tier picks, and you die a lot. After putting effort into becoming good with this low level pick, then eventually you'll switch to an easy-mode god and it will be a breeze! "Wow," you'll say, "this kit is so easy to use" as you go 30-0.

Also I can't wait for Season 2. The dream of 2-1-2...

Yeah, except by that time I'll be 3-4 lvls behind :( I need to watch some vids, I really want to learn her.

I will show you the way~*

Dancing (figuritively and literally) around the enemy so that they don't feel safe getting near your wave is what I've found to work for her. Try and aim your 1 to hit the enemy minions and the enemy god, and your three to hit all that plus both sets of minions. Maybe it's because I only face baddies, but most people don't enjoy her poke and won't do much because her 2 is broken as gently caress. Be sure to also have ballroom blitz playing in the background the entire time it really helps.
