Reply to Community Feedback Needed - Giving QoT/Regulus/Oculus an Interrupt in Demigod Demigod Forums

[quote who="miriyaka" reply="127" id="2878710"]This is side-stepping the main difference between the aura minions and the summoned minions: the aura minions are comparatively too powerful at all levels of the skill, made far worse by the lack of mana cost. Oak can begin harassing towers at Ward II. Yetis and Ball Lightning can't even beat Structure Defense I regen at level IV. You're also ignoring the ridiculous cost spreads at each level. I should not cost

Minion thoughts Ultimately my thought for Sedna and QoT is that any recast in the field is bad and should be avoided... they should have a way to avoid this if they are careful. (cast minions at base, and don't lose them) I already use a QoT hybrid build, and shamblers 1 is my 1st skill. Because they are ranged, you can keep them alive if you are careful. So on QoT, my opinion is not so much the mana cost, but rather the shambler minion buff skills. Ptarth and

[quote who="OMG_pacov" reply="123" id="2878117"] I'm not going to just compile it and push it out there myself, because I'm not really getting a strong feeling that anything is really being considered beyond 'add interrupt to everything'. Tough crowd. hehe... I still think its really just me that wants interrupts on all dgs.

Ideas for Staff of the Warmage in Demigod Demigod Forums

I know I have brought this up before, But staff of the warmage is an enigma... As it is now, it is easily one of the worst favor items in the game But it has certain problems if you intend to mod it. 1) If you take it you are replacing a helm, so why take it when you have Plenor and Vlemish available. 2) If you allow it to be as good as a mid-game helm, the early game gets weird (and unfair) for certain DGs (LE, Sedna, QoT) So some questions which

Counter ninja strike! Reg Please compare MoTB to other ranged instant interrupts (pen and deep freeze). MoTB does not have too much functionality built into one skill, and it is a variation on a theme. Ultimately, if you want to make one really great improvement to Reg, it is interrupt on MOTB. It will allow Reg a chance to avoid damage, or block an escape / item. QoT 1) Wave If you put an interrupt on Spike Wave, you really haven't improved QoT at hi

Although I am on the side of, all DGs need an interrupt...Ultimately in retrospect, Occ was overpowered with blastoff interrupt, and QoT doesn't really have a viable skill to attach an interrupt to... so she should work more like Occ, viable without an interrupt. Most of this stuff has been beat to death in Crazy Town. Lots of changes in that mod, but it really was just an experiment to try some concepts out and see which of them should be made into real changes. So here are the be

A swarm of spirits might "accidentally" attack the cit on their own when the creeps get novaed, and lag might "accidentally" prevent a command to the spirits to disengage immediately.

[quote who="OMG_pacov" reply="655" id="2798263"] I agree, easy enough to say "we just played, ________ was a jackass, please review the replay." We need an official rule written up that allows for this. It needs to be clear in the rules that citadel stomping with minion oak is not acceptable. I don't personally have a problem with an oak using spirits to take out towers, but do with the pounding on the citadel side of things. And it is pretty obvious if that's what

You should do replays when something interesting happens. eg: Normal Commentary -> Something technical and important/interesting happens -> Replay in slow mo, and explain what is happening and what people were thinking in greater detail. (might even ask the players what they were thinking). This way you can point go back and change the camera angle after the play has been made and show it in more detail. Kinda like real sports. (showing the whole field of play, and then zoning i

[quote quoting="post"] When i first bought this game ~ a year ago, I was very impressed with the concepts and the fast paced, fun gameplay. However it seemed that a relitively low number of people were playing, and I was constantly frustrated with multiplayer issues and difficulty establishing games. Now that I've decided to try it again, there are considerably fewer people playing. Did something happen to cause this game to 'go down the tubes'? It really looked

We could give out a small "participation" prize for non-top4 teams that complete all their games? I wonder if Frogboy might be able to help us out here? With maybe some impulse credit $$$ or free CDkey for stardock games rather then just a hard cash donation for this part of the sponsorship. eg: All non top 4 teams who play all their games are entered into a random draw for "participating" in the tourney, and are awarded a small token for getting stomped by the tier 1 & 2

My next vote 3) End the tourney PERIOD once the last game is played. In the event of a tie we have a playoff based on tourney rules. There is no need to allow the team with the most wins at the end of the round robin to come in 4th place. Also, this should not be a "majority rules" vote. eg: Are 6 people voting against option 1 as of now? eg: If the winning option is eliminated as a choice, what would you vote for? eeg: If Option 1 wins, what would the split opti
