Jungle
Jungle in SMITE is the name given to the areas found inbetween/around the lanes, that allow players to travel around the map with ease. This area usually contains neutral monster camps that will grant players different bonuses after defeating them.
There are a few special camps that are present in almost all Game Modes commonly called "buff camps." Once slain, the bigger monster in the group will drop a unique buff on the ground, where the killer or one of their allies can pick it up, with a maximum of one dropped buff per holder. In Conquest and Joust, apart from the standard buff camps, there is also the Fire Giant or Bull Demon King, respectively. These are very strong neutral bosses that, once slain, will grant every person in the killer's team a powerful buff that stacks with any other buff. All neutral minions except those in the Mana camps, Bull Demon King, and Fire Giant deal Physical damage with melee attacks.
The act of roaming the jungle and slaying neutral monsters without staying in a single lane is called "jungling." Jungling allows a team to have a higher gold and XP gain as well as a permanent ganker. Gods ideal for jungling are those with abilities allow them to quickly clear camps and move around the jungle and/or sustain themselves while doing so.
The Jungle is the most noticeable place that features an aspect called "fog of war", which hides gods from vision across differing distances, and is amplified as soon the lane and base is left. This hides gods from view but does not hide effects such as abilities or the use of Relics.

Jungle camps[edit | edit source]
Jungle minions spawn in groups at specific locations ("camps") and will not leave their area, which is usually marked with a line on the ground around them. They are immune to attacks from beyond their camp's border unless they are engaged in combat. These neutral minions will not attack until someone attacks them first. They will continue to attack their target until it dies or leaves the area, in which case they will switch to the next valid target. If no targets are left in their area, the jungle minions will walk back to their starting position and start to gradually restore their health. Defeating these camps will always reward gold and experience. Each camp has a unique respawn time, which will not start until all units in the camps have been killed. Most jungle monsters deal physical damage, and both their stats and rewards increase as time goes by.

Jungle monsters[edit | edit source]
Conquest[edit | edit source]
Conquest has its jungle divided in two halves, one on either side of the middle lane. The map is perfectly symmetrical along the horizontal axis, divided into two halves by a rift down the center, providing a clear reference for players crossing into enemy territory.
Major locations like the Gold Fury and Fire Giant have elements that are located higher than other map features, giving players clear landmarks while moving through the more narrow and windy Jungle.
Fog of War in the Jungle limits sight distance.
