Princess Bari ​‌Build Guides - Abilities, Items, Combos & More

As briefly introduced about God Princess Bari, with her unique skill set, she can be played in multiple roles in Smite 2. In the Open Beta 5 update, I only provided a small suggestion regarding her ability to jungle.

Born as the seventh daughter to a king who longed only for a male heir, Princess Bari was cast aside at birth—deemed unworthy by her own family. When her father fell gravely ill, however, it was Bari who journeyed across mortal and spirit realms to obtain the divine waters needed to restore his life.

This act of profound selflessness not only healed her father but also bestowed Bari with divine power. Now a powerful shaman, she stands as a guiding light between the living and the dead. She harnesses her gifts to protect the vulnerable and uphold the delicate balance of both realms.

In SMITE 2, Princess Bari uses her ever-growing reservoir of spiritual energy to amplify her abilities. Each strike or ability she lands builds up her Spirit, fueling a cycle of enhanced attacks and spells that demonstrate her merciful but resolute nature.

1. Passive: Mystic Surge

Accumulate Spirit by dealing damage to enemies. Upon reaching 100 Spirit you enter Mystic Surge for 5s and can use any of your abilities with no cooldown. Abilities used this way have a bonus effect

• Gain bonus Strength, Intelligence, and Attack Speed while in your Mystic Surge based on the rank of Spirit’s Cadence

2. Ability 1: Sacred Bell

Lob a bell, dealing Magical Damage to enemies where it lands. Warding Gusts or Reverent Steps push the Bell, dealing Magical Damage and Slowing enemies

• Mystic Surge: +20% Lob Damage and now applies a Slow. +20% Rolling Damage and now applies a Stun. The Bell itself is 1.67x the size.

3. Ability 2: Warding Gust

Swipe your fan dealing Magical Damage to enemies and Knockback enemies who are close.

• -30% Damage to enemies further away
• Mystic Surge: +20% Damage and Knockback. Bells pushed are treated as Mystic Surge Bells.

4. Ability 3: Reverent Steps

Dance for a short burst of speed in any direction, then fire a projectile dealing Magical Damage when it ends

• Hitting a God grants 50 Spirit and reduces this ability’s cooldown by 25%
• Mystic Surge: +20% Damage, dealt instantly in a line. Bells pushed are treated as Mystic Surge Bells.

5. Ultimate Ability: Spirit’s Cadence

Conjure a spiritual dance that pulses three times. The first two pulses deal Magical Damage. The last pulse deals Magical Damage. Pulses apply a stacking Slow.

• You and allies in the area gain Guardian Spirits for 4s. When taking lethal damage become Immune, Silenced, and Disarmed for 1.5s.
• Casting this ability immediately places you in Mystic Surge for 10s.

Princess Bari has a very easy default combo. As jungler you can wait for your passive to be about 85/90% loaded or gank using the ult.

If you have your ult you should use:

• 1 + AA + ULT + AA + 1 + AA + 2 + AA + 3 + AA.  

If you don't have ult, you should be using more autos to charge it, here's when Dagger of Frenzy is useful. 

Notes:

• AA: auto-attack / basic attack.

Princess Bari’s gameplay centers on Spirit—she does not use Mana, but instead accumulates Spirit with each successful hit or ability cast. Upon reaching the Spirit threshold, Princess Bari surges with power, amplifying her damage, enhancing her abilities, and granting special effects to her basic attacks.

Princess Bari conjures bells, tossing them into the fray to damage and disrupt her enemies. She sweeps them forward with a graceful fan flourish, weaving each strike into a fluid combo that builds her Spirit. Drawing on protective rituals, Princess Bari protects allies from lethal harm while fueling her own surge of power. She enters a heightened state that amplifies her next attack, choosing the right one for the situation.

Her abilities:

• Princess Bari is a Hybrid god, excelling at the traditional carry role through Strength while being a more flexible caster with Intelligence.
• Combo-centric kit, with a variety of ways to approach each fight depending on her current Spirit and her goals in the fight
• Ebb and Flow of Power. Princess Bari excels at transitioning from her Physical and Spiritual forms, gaining access to extra cooldown usages and powerful bonuses.
• Teamwide Death Immunity, allies simply need to be part of her Ritual to gain this potent effect.
