Can pinging Smite show your allies how much damage it deals?

Would be great for general communication. --> Smite - 540 Damage - 10s

That would actually be a really good idea.

while we are at it can Frost Queens Claim say "Active" cause i doubt my team cares how many dumb charges it has but i want them to know "Hey i wanna either use my ghosts to engage or engage then use them to secure the kill"

Like srsly why does my ADC or Team care i have 3 charges of an ability that just gives me 15 gold?????

I imagine some degree of copy pasterino from sightstone or Relic shield (Where its actually useful to know how many charges remain)

Agreedprobably so, it's not the most important fix needed but I do hope they see this and do it. I'd like to not have to explain "IM GOING GHOST!" (although i do enjoy making the ref each time, mental note for my support playing videos)

Or ping it in the summoner spells for time remaining and in your status bar for damage.

Don't forget to tell them how many casts you have stored up. Its much less important, but it saves you the issue of getting flamed for using smite before a jungle objective.

why does anyone care how much damage smite does except the jungler?

So they know where they need the big camps down. It'd be useful in things like stalling a fight or stopping an opponent.

For big camps, they should just know that lvl 1 is 390. You shouldnt need to rely on smite AND allies after that anyway, except for dragon and baron. In that case, they should just keep attacking, and you should smite as soon as it'd secure it.

So they know what to expect. Not everyone is a Jungle main. People usually only know Smite deals 390 damage at level 1 and 1000 at level 18. Everything in between is murky. So if you pinged that your smite deals 540 damage they would be more prepared when taking dragon. Maybe Jhin won't use his fourth shot on a drake with 600 Health then. Or your allies will time their CC better so the enemy Jungler can't try to steal.
