Released Jan 09, 2018
Passive - Spirit of Death
- Any time an Enemy God within 40 of Cerberus is healed, that healing is reduced by 20% and Cerberus receives 40% of the heal.
Paralyzing Spit
- Cerberus's snake tail spits venom that passes through and damages Enemies. If Cerberus's dog heads are Alert, they then also spit venom when the ability is fired. Each head is alerted upon hitting an Enemy with a Basic Attack, and all are alerted after Ghastly Breath. Each projectile that hits the same target deals 20% less damage, but hitting an Enemy with all 4 Stuns them.
Ghastly Breath
- Each of Cerberus's 3 heads releases a cone of noxious breath in front of them, damaging all enemies in range 7 times over 2.4s and reducing their Magical Protections up to three times. Enemies in the center of his breath are also Slowed up to three times. This attack immediately puts all three of Cerberus's heads on Alert for Paralyzing Spit.
Soul Expulsion
- Cerberus leaps a short distance forward, dealing damage on impact and severing the souls of Enemies. These souls will not block Cerberus's attacks, and killing the souls heals Cerberus.
Stygian Torment
- Cerberus's haunting wail summons below him the souls of the damned, which then lift all Enemy Gods into the air while stretching the link between their bodies and souls, Damaging them. A short time later, Cerberus uses this link to pull the Enemies to him.
General
- Fixed an issue where CC Immune targets would take no damage from this ability
General
- This good boy has been waiting for a buff for some time, falling towards the bottom of his fellow Guardians. Decreasing the cooldown on his control and engagement abilities will be a nice treat for Cerberus mains.
Paralyzing Spit
- Decreased cooldown from 16s to 14s.
Soul Expulsion
- Decreased cooldown from 16s to 14s.
General
- Cerberus is an aggressive frontline guardian but lacked the base health late game to fully accomplish that goal. A boost to his per level should give him that extra bit of presence needed to succeed.
- Base Stats
- Increased HP per level from 86 to 95
General
- Fixed an issue where his passive was not affecting % heals
General
- Cerberus is a good boy, but has struggled to be a good god. To help carve his niche into SMITE we are focusing on his bruiser support capabilities, rather than giving him additional raw burst or control. His passive is unique, converting enemy healing into his own live so we are further highlighting this passive with a buff. Additionally, Ghastly Breath released with a potent shred that we pulled back. He is now in a state where we can find a middle ground from his current and old numbers.
Spirit of Death
- Increased healing from stolen heal from 40% to 50%.
Ghastly Breath
- Increased Protection Shred from 6/8/10/12/14 to 6/9/12/15/18 from stack.
General
- Cerberus can be a powerhouse in most modes, but in Conquest he has struggled to be a successful frontline bruiser and guardian. We are increasing the reward Cerberus receives for aggressively devouring god's souls as well as making it easier to wolf em down. In addition, we are giving him access to his ultimate more often during the early stages of the game, while making it match the frequency of other AoE teamfight ultimates in the late game.
Soul Expulsion
- Decreased Health of Soul from 95/130/165/200/235 to 60/100/140/180/220.
- Increased Heal per God from 30/50/70/90/110 to 40/65/90/115/140.
Stygian Torment
- Decreased Cooldown from 115/110/105/100/95s to 100s.
General
- Paralyzing Spit
- Fixed an issue where the Mana cost of this ability was not matching the description.
General
- Cerberus has had numerous adjustments to help him feel fluid while playing. Paralyzing Spit has had multiple targeter improvements to make it more accurate, with a few additional tweaks the make it more reliable. However, it will now respect diminishing returns like other stuns in SMITE. Soul Expulsion is getting increased range, allowing Cerberus to move through a fight effectively, and Stygian Torment is getting similar treatment to Ares; allowing anyone in the visual FX of the circle to be affected.

General
- Cerberus has struggled since his release to really make an impact for his team.

Additionally, Stygian Torment will activate all of his heads, allowing him to combo more directly with Paralyzing Spit.
