SMITE Version 1.0.2529.2

###  Ricochet

Hou Yi draws back his bow for a powerful shot that deals 70/110/150/190/230 (+60% of your physical power) damage. After firing, if this arrow bounces off of a wall it gains +70 units distance and +50% bonus damage per bounce up to a maximum of 2 bounces. This arrow will stun for 1s if the target has Mark of the Golden Crow.
* Cost: 60/65/70/75/80 mana.
* Cooldown: 14 seconds.

###  Mark of the Golden Crow

Hou Yi marks an enemy with Mark of the Golden Crow. Marked enemies take extra damage for every 10% of their missing health from Hou Yi's abilities and basic attacks. At rank 3, marked enemies are visible to Hou Yi on the minimap including stealthed gods. At rank 5, Hou Yi gains +15% penetration against the marked enemy god.
* Cost: 50 mana.
* Cooldown: 18 seconds.

###  Divebomb

Hou Yi launches into the air, holding his bow above his head as he glides forward. After a short time Hou Yi quickly dives to the ground dealing 70/110/150/190/230 (+30% of your physical power) damage to any enemies in the immediate area. If the target has Mark of the Golden Crow they are knocked back.
* Cost: 70/75/80/85/90 mana.
* Cooldown: 15 seconds.

###  Sunbreaker

Hou Yi shoots nine arrows into the sky, striking one sun with each arrow. The nine suns come crashing down one by one, dealing 80/90/100/110/120 (+25% of your physical power) damage in a target area every 0.5s for 4.5s. A target with Mark of the Golden Crow will have their movement speed slowed by 20% for .25s on every hit.
* Cost: 100 mana.
* Cooldown: 90 seconds.
