The Shrines and Offerings system was a gameplay mechanic in SMITE only available during the very early stages of Closed Beta. Offerings were enhancements that players could give to their gods outside of matches. Shrines were where players would place offerings for their gods.
Offerings were purchased from the game's Store with 
Favor. Each offering granted a small bonus to the god's statistics. There were 6 types of offerings: Statue, Idol, Relic, Oil, Incense and Tablet. Each offering has 3 tiers, the first tier available for purchase by default for 90 , while tier 2 requires account level 15 and the 3rd requiring account level 30.
Shrines could hold one of each type for a maximum of 6 offerings. Each god starts with one free Shrine, and players could unlock 2 additional shrines with 
Gems for a total of 3 shrines.
This system was scrapped very early on in the game's development without an announcement.
