QoT: Mulch Shambler

from Demigod Forums

i was wondering how many like this skill? i know i like it a lot but im not that much of a fan of picking the Shambler even though i see the usefulness of it, it just seems like a pain and even though i could see some one making a game plan to really get kills by going all suicide bomber with your Shamblers ( which i think i may have to go try after this lol ) i wonder if people would not like it more if it just choice the Shambler randomly?

But in return you get to choice who gets the heal from it, giving QoT a HEAL!! :dur:

I use this skill extensively and for me it's by far the best skill that the QoT has. It can be used to farm experience and gold at a second lane and the heal is quite a lot at level15, enabling you to play the tank of your team. However, to use it efficiently you have to micro-manage your shamblers a lot, which can be a pain in the ass, especially in the endgame where you can't find your shamblers to mulch amongst all the other units. I would really like to be able to double-tap the skill key so that the QoT would mulch a random/nearest/lowest health shambler.

Anyways, in my ~130 games I only saw maybe 3 other QoTs using that skill, I guess because most players go open form to use her area-of-effect skills. Getting Demigod kills with the damage of mulching is quite rare, but really really cool. :)

It's a neat skill.

Lots of heal, and it's useful for taking out waves of creeps.  Almost as much damage as Fire nova.  There's a delay on the damage so it's not great at hitting Demigods, but it's great for keeping shamblers relevant in the late game.

I highly agree with the autotarget suggestion.

Abilities that target demigods are harder to use in a crush because they stand out and you get a key to help oyut arget them. But abilities that target minions can be very frustrating in dense battles.

QoT totally sucks ass if you want to compete but is great fun if you're just up for good times with friends and getting farmed in style.

my current build with qot atm is just shield, ground spikes and spike wave. everything else i find rather useless or just time/mana wasting.
