[quote]If there are only 30 good players you don't belong to them sorry - unless you improved a lot since we played last[/quote] When we played last, we never played your setup before to the level you did. Like I said man, we lost from the beginning. I don't know how to play erebus, and we picked a really unstable setup that didn't counter. If I had played a demigod I knew how to micro-manage properly, along with a support demigod for stability, it'd have gone much diff

[quote]3000+ dps rook? Why not go a step further,[/quote] I overestimated a bit, but I was referring to the SPIKE in DPS when rook lands his slam (and its very easy for a team to coordinate stuns for a rook to land one.) I'll add it up for you, assuming the rook is level 10 with no items. Slam: 1700 damage | 1700 Arrows: 60 damage | 1760 Shoulder tower: 100 damage | 1860 Raised tower: 100 damage | 1960 Trebuch
[quote]And that is the last time I ever respond to a thread of yours or to you personally.[/quote] That is right son. You assumed. You got burned. Stay the hell out of intellectual discussion. Stay the FUCK out of balance discussion.
[quote]the best players around[/quote] Theres like 30 good players, then it just drops miles down the chart. I can't assume I know everyone, but all of the other 'good' players have yet to make themselves known. [quote]EDIT: just saw the changes, they are reasonable[/quote] I'm not happy man. They're basing a nerf upon a whining majority. This is bad practice for balancing a game.
Aw man, I'm going to break down some quotes tonight. fraggelsmurf: [quote]I were going to say that you shouldn't tell the creators to wait longer before balancing the game when
At the rate their department for gamebalance, comprised of idiots on these forums is going, I don't see this game going very far at all when it comes to end-game. Although, when more competitive gamers take a hold of this, it'll balance itself out eventually, and shut out pug heroes from thinking they know balance completely.
[quote]Anytime a skill is considered too good to pass up and becomes part of essentially every build that uses the character, the skill is overpowered and needs to be balanced to encourage other paths.[/quote] Okay, what other builds do you suggest for erebus who has no other melee skill to keep him alive, the lowest HP, and lowest armor melee demigod alive? Ignorant logic at it's best.
[quote]*yawn* the 'small' effects as you call them are often the most powerful piece of an attack especially[/quote] I'll cut you off there, because like every idiot in these forums, you neglect too many things. Erebus has low HP, lowest armor, and low health regen. He has the lowest base mana, lowest mana regen as well. Spending gold on pots just reduces erebus's potential to actually out-melee another melee character. Of course you also neglect
[quote]When GPG did this in the day0 patch they were quite sure they would have to go back and nerf a bit once things started to "calm down".[/quote] EVEN in beta man, they can't fine tune the balance based off of a bunch of people randomly playing with no organization. Theres no team pantheon, no clan feature, and very little organized team play. They have the balance pretty tight for now, and give a HUGE window for skill to take over. I don't see Erebus needing any tw
[quote]Check my games dude. I don't play custom matches so I don't get to see what the other team is picking. Pantheon and Skirmish matches don't show you and I haven't ever played a custom match yet.[/quote] ...Your basing your conclusions off of random games with people of varied skill that for the most part, will suck. How do you know the balance is actually flawed, when you dont even have good teammates, when you yourself are probably nothing special?
[quote]don't know about overall balance but I can tell you that Bite itself was an overpowered attack, damage, life drain, slow, and armor debuff all in one attack[/quote] translation: OMFG IT DOES MANY THINGS WITH SMALL EFFECTS, THEY MUST MULTIPLY BY 500xXXX. OMFG. LETS COMPARE TWO SKILLS, BUT NOT DEMIGODS OVERALL AND TEAMWORK. LLOLOALOSLAOALOL I SUCK AT THIS GAME. [quote]yeah... read it again.[/quote] Yeah, it was released
Yeah, I said it. GPG is crossing a horrendous threshold. I am probably over-stepping myself by discounting how balanced the game is despite this retarded update, but they have thoroughly earned it. Typically, a game creator would wait for the game to play out, and for GOOD players to actually play and provide grounds from which GPG can make conclusive changes to the balance that are logical, and tone down overused demigods in popular setups. In th
Frogboy: Any idea why Erebus is being nerfed, or is GPG just mentally retarded and basing their reason behind balance because 90% of the community sucks at this game and have no clue how to play against Erebus, thus cry.
[quote]I'm not trying to be rude, but by admitting that you pirate video games you admit that you are internet scum and not really worthy of recognition of any criticism of this or any other game.[/quote] You're dissing 90% of the community and a good 80% of GPG/Stardock's staff. I pirate games too. What do you have to say about that? [quote]DoTa has that actually.[/quote] 90% of dota's skills are instant casted, so theres n
[quote]3700 Health x 1.15 health flag = 4255[/quote] They did not hold the health flag, so hes still at 3700. He'd have to farm some serious gold early on. I forget what level you need for the extra stat points, but those give 300 hp per, so that is probably what did it.
[quote]oak is like the strongest one espically if u get your build right then ull own[/quote] Care to elaborate, or did you intend to backstab us with your oak while we were figuring out your vague explanation?
[quote]stop trolling. this should have been posted in off topic. [/quote] Why do you illegitimize my modest suggestion? I think it would be a great idea! [e digicons]:thumbsup:[/e]
[quote]For clarification, yes I am tooting my own horn >. My team got third in the 2v2, and I know exactly why we lost and what we could have done to prevent it. It was more or less a mistake on our part rather than ignorance of the game, but a combination of both none the less that we'll throw back to the next cup. Pretty confident we'll place top 3 again. :F
[quote]i am complaining about balance in 1 v 1's.[/quote] What you fail to realize however, is that this game is balanced around team work, not 1v1. Different demigods fare in different ways, because they all don't act the same. They were made to fight in conjunction with one another to compensate for all of their downfalls, and even synergize their strengths into what makes their setup very strong. You can't balance it around 1v1 without it having a negative effe
[quote]So one of the future updates we talked about is internally called Demigod: Clan Wars. This is where people will be able to form up clans and battle each other on the Pantheon. Think of it like the existing Pantheon except that instead of choosing light or dark, you’ve chosen a clan and your clan is on one side and another clan is matched against you with the system keeping score of who is winning.[/quote] YES They ARE F$^@ing li
[quote]Yep he has all the time in the world in your theorycrafted make believe game where demigods only fight each other in 1 vs 1, but in an actual game with other demigods and minions he doesn't have time at all.[/quote] Yeah, because in real demigod, you have several opponents waiting for you, not just one. If your team comes to save you, the other team will outnumber them and probably kill them. If you come out as they come in, you'll probably be focused first and f
[quote]but since i cant complain, this game is the best, it's super balanced and the multiplayer functionality works reall good![/quote] It's actually very balanced. However, there are MANY factors which IMBALANCE a situation, that you have not considered. 1) First, the demigod you played, and the build you played. There are certain builds for different demigods that Torch Bearer can easily destroy. On the latter side, there are demigod builds tha
[quote]The thing is, Rooks are just so easy to kill when they stray too far from their tower farm.[/quote] Eh...it'd be too easy to just tell you why your assumptions are wrong.
[quote]Ur humor slight is off putting especially as you have taken much time to put together nonsense.[/quote] Im sorry sir, your seriousness is contradicted by the use of 'ur.' It is spelled, 'your.' I'm not sure if English is your first language, but I politely ask that you refrain from using such phrases, sir. Thank you, sir. I would also kindly ask that you use correct capitalization and punctuation, sir.
