Lieu i've played games where you hit the 1 hour mark and you have NOTHING TO SPEND GOLD ON. And besides why get an extra 2k armor and 1k health when you can get an IMPROVED HoL
[quote who="Teseer" reply="7" id="2276603"]I want to be able to buy different colors for TB's fire form. Cmon, Neon Green would look sick. [/quote] Psh I want to see when he dies a nuclear explosion.
With number 4 i have to agree. I hated that it had to be done. I think it should be around 8-10k it didn't deserve all of it. But can you guys at least make it stop working with shield. You make oak shield with HoL harder to get but now it's a lot better.
This patch made it more viable endgame is all. Now if oak got this it's even MORE powerful than before to be used with oak. Because now with 6 seconds he'd get more around 3k health which is more significant endgame.
[quote who="woca" reply="3" id="2274612"]it breaks on damage - oaks shiled still lets it go this could be a huge problem - endgame oak is crazy - if he gets this and has 6 second shield [/quote] Yeah i think they made it worse. Before it was only usefull mid game because of it's 3k regen but now with 4.5k thats enough that it'd even more useful endgame. Which endgame is what matters.
Well nw that HoL has been MASSACRED. But it still doesn't get stunned at all. Foul grasp is 2 seconds. And a stun doens't stop HoL it just wastes shield time which if you saved your foul grasp til he used shield your doing something wrong.
Abdima is a greek name meaning destruction or loss. Backstory will be based off a loss of life in his family. My motivation for creating this is the lack of a really powerful ranged assassin. UB has got the melee part down why not have a ranged damage dealer. Regulus is too percise for what i'm thinking. Very based off of technology and suffering/pain. Would inflict this suffering through a power of telepathy
Yeah i agree why did they need the favor reset. I mean I had around 8k in favor items and that took me several weeks to get that. I have a differant favor item for each character and now i have to start over all the way.
HoL was overpowered at least to a degree but it wasn't THAT BAD. HoL is only useful in my mind mid game and now you'd be hard pressed to even get it AT ALL. My whole strategy as Torchbearer revolved around HoL and now it has been rendered useless. I myself even have a post protesting the strength of oaks shield + hol and now... well now it's screwed over. This in my mind was too far. WAY TOO FAR.
Sorry i had to do this. 100 posts WOOOO
Well I for one agree with this. Sure i do communicate i'm not a bad player. But i'm sick and tired of having to power through 1000+ xp off only killing the first 2 spawns at level 7 or so. It takes forever to level up. I think priests should be automatic for both teams. At a certain point for both teams (lets say 10 minutes) they start spawning or when the average level on the field is level 5 or something in that area. A) so you dont' have to level up at level 10 using minotaurs and
I say this is a great idea. But that connection index may not be a good indicator. What if someones sim speed (hypothetically) is -10 yet their ping is 10 and their bandwidth is REALLY high. This may be able to bump them down to a good connection index just into the good range when they will lag the game like crazy. I'd say put a connection index to the worst thing. Lets say -10 sim speed is a 0 on a scale of 0 to 1000 and 0 sim speed would be 500. Then for ping 250 could be 500 500 could be
For anyone who says TB is OP is completely right. Yet he is probally the least talked about character mostly because he's easily countered when you know what your doing. But if you don't know how to handle a torchbearer he can take about teams like crazy. I'd say had enough noobs playing him that he isn't that well recognized. But those who can field a good build with him i've seen outkill out dps and out health a UB plus have the creep killing power of torchbearers ability to AoE over 2k in
This practically is players like sedna and torchbearer. A fire torchbearer can rarely get a kill if enemy is good yet because the massive amount of creep destruction he can change the tide of a battle. You just learn to live with it.
[quote who="SoFFacet" reply="12" id="2266096"]So much for "no more responses from me," huh Xavior? Lieu, I was wondering, what type of Oak do you usually use? My friend was thinking about using Oak with my Sedna. [/quote] Lieu addessed the issue that i wanted him to and did it very well. No reason for you to get rude and offensive. I'm starting to lean to HoL being not as useful as said but as Misfortune says Shield is an awesome tool. I'm not just talkin
[quote who="_Shadow" reply="6" id="2265114"] Quoting XaviorsFist, reply 2 MY POINT ISNT THE AMOUNT OF HEALING IT'S WHEN YOU GET IT AND HOW YOU DON'T SACRIFICE ANYTHING TO GET THE HEALING. Yes, you do sacrifice a lot. Quoting XaviorsFist, reply 2 My entire strategy revolves around HOL and healing. Your accusing me of not knowing anything about healing And this is why Lieu- can be fairly confid
I think that hard AI has an exp boost. Because demigods that rarely see battle or even farm creeps such as UB still manage with maybe 1 kill to be a level higher than me... AS TORCHBEARER. I'll be level 10 and farming a row to myself and the other 2 will be on the other side struggling to kill their demigods and creeps yet they are higher leveled.
I'm done with this topic. I'm sorry you continue to go back to priests and all these variables and everything. You're talking very specific scenarios and until i see that you look at the general picture then i'm through. You say NORMALLY oak this yet then you go on and talk about adapting to the situation. Isn't getting shield at level 7 adapting isn't getting HoL very early adapting. You will see no further response from me.

[quote who="woca" reply="3" id="2264630"]the current way is bad you can get 2000 gold for your team if 3 people fight (1000 main kill, 500 per assist) the guy who got last hit will get the extra 500 which may not be right so if the person who did over 50% of the damage is 7 yeards away, award to person with last hit, so if someone used range ability to save it they get it tbh, the whole favor poi
Regulus isn't a good player all he is is a massive kill steal. Half of his kills are normally a last second snipe when they were already dead. And the other half are because at level 7 mines deals 1200 damage every 8 seconds. Place it behind them then you snipe them and 2000 damage to a runner. For people who say UB isn't a hard win whats wrong with you. I ABSOULTELY LOVE THIS GAME. I play it quite a bit and from my ratio i'm REALLY good at it too but in the begining of the game
[quote who="Lieu-" reply="22" id="2259413"]Threads do not belong to the person who started them. When you create a thread you are putting your words out there to the public, like throwing someone to the lions. Xavior, you don't seem to get the point that the shield+HoL trick is a small percentage of the total healing that goes on in the battlefield. This is just oak himself, nevermind other demigods helping each other. At the point of the game where it's actually

Another thing. Instead of that skill the decreases regens by 75% i found that frost nova is actually a better choice. Mostly for the 6 second minion stun. I played a game on zikurat that this became invaluable. I myself was able to hold back 2 fully upgraded spawns. The 6 seconds were minions were down were enough for me to run back to the crystal for mana and then come back to the choke point and continue to beat the crap out of the creeps.

I actually like to later in the game switch from vlemish facegaurd to pelnors helm because that 70% works on Heart of Life and it gives you a bigger mana pool to deal with. Sure you can't sustain that mana up their as easily but 70% of that 3000 is 2100 or so and thats 5100 mana regenerated. The max mana i've hit with this build is around 6500 and thats enough mana to get through about 2 cycles of the spells you have. Otherwise i love this post. I've used it and my win rate has just r
I'm not complaining about priests because at least ALL generals have them and assassins dish out enough damage that it negates their healing. But shield is like a 6 second stun to everything attacking you and then you get health with HoL. I wouldn't really complain about shield alone because oak is a general he doesn't dish out the damage like some of the assassins can but with the healing it's a bit overboard. A) You guys are overlooking the mana it gives as well. Shield only costs 6
Lol as i said before they never die. Oak wings of the seraphim and HoL is pretty much 2 on 1 win no matter what. And i've seen double oak doing Shield HOL and Wings of the seraphim gives area. 2 Oaks with wings of seraphim with shield and hol is INVINCIBLE. So is 2 sednas but at least they don't dish out crazy damage.
