Welcome to the wild world of Smite 2 mastery goals and worshippers, where grinding gods is the name of the game—and no, sadly, it’s not the gym kind of grinding. If you’re trying to figure out how to progress, earn worshippers, and master your favorite gods, this guide will break it all down for you.
What Are Worshippers and Mastery Levels?
Worshippers are Smite 2’s way of saying, "Congrats, you’ve played this god so much you might be in a committed relationship." As you earn worshippers, your god’s mastery level increases, showing everyone in your lobby just how much you’ve dedicated your time (and sanity) to a particular deity.
There are 10 mastery levels per god, with each level requiring more worshippers than the last. It’s kind of like climbing a ladder, but the higher you go, the more they seem to grease the rungs.
Worshippers Needed for Each Mastery Level
Here’s the breakdown of how many worshippers you’ll need for each level. (Spoiler: It’s a lot.)
Level 0 → 1: 30
Level 1 → 2: 30
Level 2 → 3: 40
Level 3 → 4: 50
Level 4 → 5: 50
Level 5 → 6: 75
Level 6 → 7: 100
Level 7 → 8: 150
Level 8 → 9: 200
Level 9 → 10: 275
Yes, you read that right (if you did the math). Getting a god to level 10 requires 1,000 worshippers in total. Hope you enjoy grinding (and maybe invest in some wrist support for your mouse hand).
How to Earn Worshippers
Worshipper gain in Smite 2 works similarly to Smite 1, with a few tweaks. Here’s the gist:
Time Played: For every four minutes of gameplay, you earn one worshipper. (Think of it as a slow drip feed of validation.)
Winning: Victory adds a flat +5 worshippers. Losing, unfortunately, does not. So, uh, try winning.
Double Worshipper Events: Occasionally, Smite 2 holds events where worshippers are doubled. These are prime farming times, so cancel your plans, stock up on snacks, and get grinding.
Ascension Passes (or, the Pay-to-Love System)
Ascension Passes let you earn extra worshippers (+25%) for a god, but they’re not free. They cost:
450 Legacy Gems (earned from Smite 1 progress)
450 Diamonds (premium currency, aka real money unless you grind hard).
Good news: Once you get a god to level 10, you earn 225 Diamonds. This means you can grind two gods to level 10 to farm enough Diamonds to buy an Ascension Pass without spending a dime. (Bad news: You’ll need to grind a lot. Enjoy those hours.)
Tips for Efficient Worshipper Farming
Here are some tips to maximize your worshipper gains without losing your mind:
Hit the 4-Minute Marks: Worshippers are awarded in 4-minute increments, so if you’re close to the next mark (e.g., a game is at 15:58), it’s worth stalling for those extra seconds. Don’t worry—your teammates will probably love this strategy.
Win Your Matches: Winning is the best way to earn worshippers. Easier said than done, but hey, maybe this is your sign to stop going 1-12 on Loki.
Double Worshipper Events: These are a gift from the Smite gods. Take advantage of them when they’re live.
Buy Ascension Passes: If you can, snag an Ascension Pass for your favorite gods. The +25% worshipper bonus stacks with double worshipper events, giving you even more gains.
Daily Login Rewards (Free Diamonds, Anyone?)
Smite 2 offers a daily login reward system that gives you Diamonds just for showing up. You can earn up to 100 Diamonds per week, and thankfully, it doesn’t reset if you miss a day. So if you log in every couple of days, you’ll still make progress. Think of it as a small bribe to keep you logging in.
Final Thoughts
Mastering gods in Smite 2 takes time, patience, and probably a little caffeine. But whether you’re grinding worshippers for fun, bragging rights, or just to unlock more shiny things, the system is manageable once you understand it. And hey, if it feels like too much, just remember: every 4 minutes gets you one step closer to victory—or a slightly shinier profile.
Good luck out there, and may your grind be swift and your teammates slightly less annoying than usual.
