It's official! The Korean Pantheon is now part of SMITE 2. Leading the way is none other than The Divine Mudang Princess Bari. She arrives through an Open Beta Update which also brings with it improvements to Conquest, the HUD Editor, Music Packs, and new skins.

Princess Bari joins the roster steeped in mythic shamanic traditions. In Korean mythology, Princess Bari is said to be the first shaman in the Korean shamanic tradition. Her task was to console and deliver the souls of the deceased. She was an unwanted daughter and managed to overcome her upbringing to save countless souls through the divine rituals and blessings. In the game, she channels that heritage on the Battleground.

Skills and Ultimate

One of her skills is Dancing Through Mystic Surge. By timing combos and accumulating Spirit, she can trigger additional and free casts of abilities. Her hybrid-scaling kit allows her to weave spells in a graceful dance that’s as mesmerizing as it is devastating.

Another skill is the Sacred Bells & Shamanic Grace. Inspired from Korean shamanic rites, her bells are able to become a battlefield centerpiece. She can lob them and then send them flying through enemies via Reverent Steps or Warding Gust to result in bursts of damage, crowd control, and unmatched mobility.

Finally, there's her Ultimate skill which is Spirit’s Cadence. She performs a triple-pulse dance which slows enemies and gives allies Guardian Spirits that negate lethal damage for an invaluable 1.5 seconds. This momentous display of shamanic mastery also activates a 10-second Mystic Surge and allows a rapid volley of spells that can turn the tide of any fight.

Overall, Princess Bari is able to deliver swift pokes and can perform miraculous rescues from the brink of death. She can deal damage, has that much needed mobility, and offers team support to be a Korean-inspired ranged magical threat.

In SMITE 2, players take on the role of a god and wage war. The game is a good choice for those who love challenging competition, intense action, ability-driven combat, rewarding teamwork, or godly mythology. Get SMITE 2 on Steam now.
