Reply to [GUIDE]The Strangler's Erebus guide/build (and how to beat it)(rehauled) in Demigod Strategies Demigod Forums

Nice guide Strangler. I'd like to add some ofmy personnal experience into this build which is really a killer build if managed correctly : - buy mist level 1 early. It saved me numerous times from killing snipe shots (as soon as you see Regulus kneel, go to mist form) and removes all negative effects like Mark of the Betrayer and that nasty UB poison. If you have a solid mana pool, it's also a nice tool to wait for your batswarm cd to be ready again. Just don't go into mist fo

Reply to Two Rook vs... in Demigod Strategies Demigod Forums

I'd say force them to defend. They move slowy, so use that to harass them on flags they cannot defend. Just keep in mind they can teleport on summoned towers ;) I say, early on go for their base towers quickly and rush for cataputlts / Portal flag locking.

Reply to Advice needed: Counter for Erebus and UB dual freeze in Demigod Strategies Demigod Forums

I'UB Stun has 15 sec cd, Erebus mass charm has 20 sec, so it should give you time to start running before it's available again. As Ice TB for instance, with the trinket you can avoid taking damage of one stun, and once both stuns are fired you can freeze back and run. Same with Sedna, you can place a heal and start running. I'm not saying it will work every time but it's worth a try.

Reply to Advice needed: Counter for Erebus and UB dual freeze in Demigod Strategies Demigod Forums

I don't think you can beat them, but maybe run away. If playing against these guys, i'd recommend getting a lot of HP and armor items, I usually look for at least 35% armor when i play TB. In your particullar case, this item might help overcome at least 1 stun, but i'm not sure if you can use it while stunned. In other words, you will need to activate just before being engaged or spam the button during the first stun to avoid the second one. Orb of Defiance &n

Reply to How to beat three Reguluses (Regulii?)? in Demigod Strategies Demigod Forums

Never fought 3 Regulii, but fought 2 (in a 3v3 game), and a Bramble shielded Erebus bat swarming in the middle of them was almost every time the death of one of them. So I'd say QoT + Erebus + Maybe a Regulus too (for sniping killing blow) might do the job. The 2 generals provide minions against mines, even though you don't really need to care about them since : QoT can remote shield and has ranged attacks, Erebus teleports over them and Regulus has nice range too.

Reply to Advice needed: Counter for Erebus and UB dual freeze in Demigod Strategies Demigod Forums

What are you playing? Generally, AVOID 2v1 situations . Can't stress that enough. You can get surprised by an incoming bat swarm, not seeing an UB is an (unforgivable) mistake.

Reply to A Lesson on Form: Queen of Thorns in Demigod Strategies Demigod Forums

First of all, congrats for that wall of text summonning :) Very good tips, I agree with you almost everything (I think one rank in uproot early in the game, depending on the map and game type can really put the balance in your favor). I've played mixed QoT forms in recent games and it kicks ass, especially in mid-late game, when you become virtually unkillable. Fighting a DG in 1v1 usually results in using : closed form, Shield, Open up, spike, wave, close, shield (munch a sha

Reply to Fire Torchbearer for Experienced Players? in Demigod Strategies Demigod Forums

As the writer of the Icebuild TB guide, I want to add some precisions to what I wrote. In terms of raw DPS, FB does more damage than IB. That's just plain numbers. But the whole point is, is DG a game about raw DPS or teamplay? When your write " damage IS control ", I couldn't agree less. Controling a fight is determining the outcome, in other words knowing if you can defeat your opponenent or if you will have to run oom or outnumbered. Having the ennemy DG flee

[quote]Ok you obviously didn't pick up the sarcasm, I called erebus the most overpowered assassin because that's what he is, he's the best assassin in the game and they had the nerve to give him idols on top of that. I'm not a troll, I'm willing to back up my statement, I've played more then a dozen 2v2's as those 2 generals and never even had a close game. I would love to be proven [/quote] Yeah I didn't pick up the sarcasm, sorry. It's true that Erebus is, f

Reply to Transitive's New Player Survival Guide, Part 2 in Demigod Strategies Demigod Forums

Very nice tips! May I add, on the teleport part, that players can teleport to a friendly tower just poped by their rook mate? So you're playing on a big map, 2 enemies are miles away and you think its a good idea to go 2v1 that left alone rook in the corner... Think again !

Reply to Torch Bearer - The Coolness (updated 29/06/09) in Demigod Strategies Demigod Forums

I usually take the helm and plate with other demigods, but with the TB I go for the boots. I can creep easily withouth using mana, and by the time I have to use it dry I have enough to afford a Velmish Faceguard. @ Daikaze : I tried to build a TB on Attribute enhancement + ice skills for a +speed +weapon damage optimized built. At level 15-16, I reached around 700-750 damage for an attack speed of 0.75. As nice as it sounds on the paper, I found this template hard to us

[quote who="Gabbelgak" reply="5" id="2182668"]Try Heart of Life instead of Magus Rod / Crowns for mana. Heart of Life also is desirable for a frost based Torch Bearer because of AoE stun, Freeze everything - pop the heart and your back up to full life / mana mid fight.[/quote] Works if no DG are around, DG are frozen only 3 secs at max rank. The Magus Rod is a real combat item, where the heart of life could be tricky to use (trebuchet shooting from far away, creep spawn

Reply to Torch Bearer - The Coolness (updated 29/06/09) in Demigod Strategies Demigod Forums

If you want a specific counter tower Rook build, add a Rank 1 Circle of Fire somewhere. Since the towers are usually concentrated, freeze the towers, RoI them, switch to fire, circle of fire, get out !

Reply to Miyamiya's Guide to Duelist Sedna in Demigod Strategies Demigod Forums

If I may add something, I think that Magnificent presence at level 17 is too late. The faster you have it level 3, the faster you can spam Pounce. You can solve the mana issue with 2 crowns (Plenor and Vlemish) + Magus Rod for Pounce/heal at half price. I also suggest that you invested starting gold on monk idol, pretty usefull for ealry creeping and DG fight support. Nice guide though !

Reply to Sedna - Queen of healing in Demigod Strategies Demigod Forums

Good guide, but in my opinion Innergrace is less important than Magnificent presence. Reduced CD aura kick ass. For speed, get the boots for 1000g. And health, usually you're fine with healing wind + heal + summonded Monk minnions.

Torch Bearer - The Coolness (updated 29/06/09) in Demigod Strategies Demigod Forums

UPDATED June 29 This is my personal guide to the full ice TB build. I will not put a skill order because I believe one has to adapt during a game. Generally I tend to favor these priorities : 1- Rain of ice (RoI) - Nice AOE damage and your only ranged stand alone spell. 2- Permafrost - For fleeing, slowing down fleeing ennemies and mana regen 3- Ice Nova - for disabling towers, stunning DG and incapacitating ennemy DG minions. And most importan

Reply to New Lord Erebus Master Guide in Demigod Strategies Demigod Forums

Yes, 1 point in Mist seems unavoidable to me for 3 reasons : - Remove negative effects, priceless. - Allows you to wait for team mate if ganked / in a pinch - Gives nice retreat option. Bat swarm or TP scroll on CD ? Just mist a couple of seconds, 95% of the time the ennemy DG will start focusing on something else which gives you 1 sec to get out of mist -> Bat Swarm -> TP out. I admit I played Erebus only twice, but I've been observing a l
