General

• Fixed an issue where she could lose all controller functionality

General

• Fixed an issue where this god could not select a target for her passive when using PC Controller mode or Console KBM Mode.

General

• hrough the last few patches we have been looking at Basic Attack assassins. In this patch we have a few things to help (Stone Cutting Sword cost reduction, Midgardian Mail nerf) but wanted to help Kali on her base kit. Marked for Death will now provide a 20% heal if she doesn't manage to get the kill. In situations where the heal really matters, a small bonus could be the difference between chaining multiple kills or heading back to the fountain.

Marked for Death

• Increased heal on assist from 15% to 20%.

General

• Kali's Lash is her primary poke and clear tool. Having a long cooldown on this limited her ability to properly jungle in the early game. While she is a late game character, she was a bit too skewed to the late game. This adjustment will help bring her overall power curve to a more reasonable level, while still keeping her late game strength at the same level.

Lash

• Changed Cooldown from 15/14/13/12/11s to 12s at all ranks.

General

• Fixed an issue where Kali could not select a target for her passive in Joust Practice.

General

• Fixed an issue where Kali would get stuck upon respawn.

General

• Kali's new passive allows players to select their target at the start of the game, but players learned they could quickly disconnect to cause the target to switch to a random target, negating the initial choice. After looking at various cases to solve this abuse case, we have decided to make Kali's passive now persist on disconnected targets.
• Fixed an issue where Kali would be stuck without the ability to select her target.

Marked for Death

• Kali's passive will no longer automatically switch away from a target who is disconnected.

General

• Kali is often considered one of the strongest late game hyper carries in SMITE. Because of her terrifying late game potential, we did not want to give her any direct buffs. However, we did aim to reduce a lot of the randomness that Kali players deal her. Her passive has had its rules changed to never use RNG and to even allow Kali to select her targets in some situations through a new menu.

Marked for Death

• This ability now has a new Menu to allow Kali players to select their first target. The selection must be made before taking any other actions at the start of a match.
• Whenever Kali dies, she may change targets through the same Menu.
• Upon killing a target, Marked for Death will now select the closest God to Kali to become her next target.

General

• Fixed an issue where Trophy Hunter's basic attack swing FX were displaying incorrectly.

Marked for Death

• Updated tooltip for clarity.
• Fixed Kali is receiving Bloodforge passive on assists if the target is her passive mark.
• Fixed an issue where Kali was getting the wrong XP and Gold values on assists of her marked targets.

General

• Often Kali was "do or die", and while this kind of play can be exciting, it often led to a dynamic where missing a kill could cause a lot of frustration. Assists will now provide a smaller bonus, helping alleviate this frustration.

Marked for Death

• Kali is now rewarded on kills or assists.
• Kali now heals 80% of her maximum Health on kills, and 15% on Assists.

• Fixed an issue where Kali markers were sometimes not on correct target.

Lash
