 CLIODHNA: A Closer LookTitle: Queen of the BansheesPantheon/Class: Celtic Assassin – Physical DamageShe is the first member of the Tuatha Dé Danann to venture into the realm of SMITE in many years. The war between Tiamat and Gilgamesh has had a grave cost: humanity. When gods clash, there is bound to be collateral damage. Some even more cruel gods, like Charybdis, specifically sought to destroy human worshippers to weaken and enrage rival gods. So much death has attracted the Queen of Banshees, and she brings with her a key piece of ancient knowledge from her region that will force Merlin to confront his past.Core ThemesTheme – Ghostly – As a Banshee Queen, we went all-in on the themes that would accompany a ghostly character. This ethereal form brings many unique opportunities for gameplay and visuals. Visuals – Horror – Uneasy tension and jump scares are both evoked by this goddess. She floats gracefully toward you on the battleground, providing a brief illusion of safety before lashing out with claw or blade. Personality – Bleak – Cliodhna is death, and death is inevitable. She is constantly aware of this fact and makes sure that those around her feel death slowly creeping toward them. Perspective – Intimidation – She has the other gods trembling and tripping over themselves to keep on her good side.GameplayCliodhna is a physical assassin, focused around ability damage. She likely will excel most in the jungle and will want to build high power and penetration builds, possibly also focusing on cooldown and lifesteal.Unique Gameplay FeaturesCliodhna’s Passive ability brings another SMITE first: a goddess that can walk into walls and maintain full movement control while within them.There are a series of specific rules, checks, balances, and unique visuals that accompany that passive ability.Three of her Four active abilities have alternate effects if used while in a wall A new “deafen” effect where players hit by one of her abilities will temporarily be unable to hear all in-game audio She features a new type of stealth – conditional on successful hit of a skill shotShe features a new type of trap ability A low cooldown Ultimate with “charges” allowing her to space them out or fire multiples in a rowAn intense visual change to her head and face when she lets loose her famous banshee scream. Finally rounding out the Celtic Pantheon with one god of each class!Update Show LIVE - Wednesday @ 3pm ET Full Closer Look Dev Insight -- source link
