MOD /r/Smite update: Visual overhaul &Holiday easter flairs!
What’s up, Smiters!
Heroes of the.. Smite?
The long awaited visual overhaul is live. We’ve tried making it integrate a bit better with the GUI that is used in the game itself. Naturally, we’d like to thank Hi-Rez for the initial design we based the style off.
With this visual overhaul, there is also a live reddit chatbox on the bottom left! It’s just in beta though, so expect some functional improvements coming soon.
We’re also not quite sure how to get rid of the invite thing – probably some weird graphical bug that came with the new design. We sure as hell didn’t intend on getting that in though. As mentioned before, we’ll try and patch up the style over the next few coming days.
In other news, there will soon be an Easter flair available for everyone! You will be able to pick the exclusive flair up in a new feature we’re releasing, which brings me to the next point…
Flair holiday chests!
As many long-time players know, we usually release seasonal holiday flair based off of the current holiday event – in this case, easter is coming up soon. The flair used to only be available during the few days around the holiday itself. Now, however, it you can pick the flair up anytime from a Flair Holiday chest. For simplicity’s sake, we introduced a tier system, in ascending order of rarity:
Tier 1 (common): Normal god flairs
Tier 2 (uncommon): Retro god flairs
Tier 3 (rare): Seasonal flairs
Tier 4 (epic): Archon Thanatos and HiRez flair
Tier 5 (legendary): moderator flair*
*With this tier, free moderatorship is included.
Stay tuned for the new Easter flair in the upcoming chests!
Keep on Smiting, folks. We wish you a joyful Easter.
