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

Well, after having some fairly good success with my Erebus in custom matches(I havn't played pantheon yet, never had a good chunk of time to commit to yet), I've decided to write down my method for all to see. Not like it was a big secret anyway. Build Philosophy: The idea behind this Erebus build is to combine his abilitie

Reply to So, what is an acceptable ping? in Demigod Demigod Forums

Anything green and under 300 is playable in my experience. Anything green and under 250 is great, anything green and under 400 is playable, but not optimal, anything not green is pretty much not worth playing with, and anything over 400 can lead to a fairly unenjoyable experience at times.

[quote who="DalzK" reply="6" id="2197545"] The only debuff I think Erebus needs is make it so that he loses all positive effects/buffs as well as negative effects when he enters mist form. That way, he can't bite->mist->bite his way to victory. Likewise, it would lose its effectiveness as a healing tool, and really be a stalling tool over anything else. You gain ZERO hp in mist form no matter what. Also, you lose all buffs - posititve and negative (e.g. Bramble and Spit).[/quo

[quote who="CallTheVoid" reply="13" id="2197452"]Hey Chaosnaska, Honestly, and you all might not believe me, but the best thing for a noob is to let him noob it up and die a bunch. That way, he LEARNS. Don't coddle him, or make him less desirable to be killed, because truth be told, he NEEDS to die to learn. The problem with this, is the fact that people only go "you suck" "stop sucking" or "just leave the game." They, for the most part, will not take any effort i

Thing is, sure, Sedna may be pretty hard to kill when she's maxed out, but she's not going to be doing that much damage either.

Reply to Disable Favor Items Until Fixed in Demigod Demigod Forums

I agree, either disable them completely, or get favour working properly. Early on, smart use of favour items can make or break a game. Against good players, it can be debilitating not to have them against players that do. 15% speed is no joke, and early game, +800 health is enormous.

Thing is, I've won games by suiciding on my own pots. As funny as it sounds, if you really need 1.8k to buy that new item/citadel upgrade, and you can't find a DG to kill, just go to your last corpse, and choke one down. 30 seconds, no fuss, and you're back at base to buy what you need. Of course, it was a bit of a fluke that it worked so well, but it DID work.

Not to mention that the potions can be used to easily gain money. Just have an Erebus die, and then let him keep eating his own potions. He'll keep getting gold for each kill.

Since Copy and paste isn't working... DOUBLEPOST! [quote who="InfiniteVengeance" reply="5" id="2194209"]I can't see how the game is balanced if each hero has abilities that you get EACH AND EVERY GAME. True all these broken abilities might cancel each other out when these heroes meet each other in multiplayer, but have you seen a single Rook not get tower? A single Regulus not get mines? A single Erebus not get bite? A single Sedna not get heal? <br /

Reply to Erebus is OP - end of story in Demigod Demigod Forums

Remember, Erebus is an incredibly fragile melee combatant if you nullify the healing edge from his bite. All you need to do is mitigate the damage, and he can't heal without wasting gold on potions. A character like Oak or QoT does this very nicely, as Shield and Bramble Shield both shut Erebus down.

Reply to Is there a way to beat item spammers? in Demigod Demigod Forums

Two ways to beat this. First, just wait them out. They'll keep spending, and you'll keep profiting. If you play your cards right, you should slowly outpower them to the point where they can't resist you. Second, and more complicated way, is to spread their resources too thin by pushing multiple flags on the map. Just keep moving and capping. The more flags they have to attempt to lock, the higher their chance of making a mistake, and the higher yo
