Staff of Renewal + Magnus Rod in Demigod Strategies Demigod Forums

This is a really great combo. Staff of Renewal reduces the cooldown of Magnus Rod to 12 seconds. The effects of Magnus Rod last 5 seconds, so this allows you to run at 50% mana cost for 5 seconds with a 7 second gap. Plus, if the map is cataract, the cooldown flag reduces Magnus Rod's cooldown to 9.6 seconds. This combo lets you spam abilities because they cost less mana and all of your ability cooldowns are 20% less. What do you all think?

Were his teammates somewhat weak? That would indicate some sort of item sharing. I hope the answer isn't as simple as "hacks."

I once saw a TB use poisoned dagger and permafrost together. This might be another combo to look at. It worked really well.

Don't pick Sedna. She's a melee Demigod that doesn't have AoE. It's like asking the question "What are the Rook counters to Regulus?"

We should have the Shamwow guy do the voiceovers for Regulus. It would improve the voice acting significantly. :P

[quote who="transitive" reply="8" id="2288080"] Unbreakable Boots are better, Nimoth Chestguard is better. if you've already got both of those it can be worth it to get a Hauberk (especially if you're a general and you need minion health) but usually i skip it and continue saving for a Narmoth's Ring. or put the gold into the citadel.

My gut reaction is that it's not enough of a nerf. I haven't played against it enough to have a formal opinion. I asked a question because I honestly don't know. :P

What do you all think of the slow stacking nerf? Was it too little, too much, or just right?

It's sort of odd that this item was chosen as #1. I would have chosen Magnus Rod, Universal Gadget, or Totem of Revelation.

He's necessary if your opponents are going for minion builds. Otherwise, he's not really a "necessary" Demigod.

[quote who="transitive" reply="15" id="2284780"]i tried it in a few games vs. CPU today just to see if it really does have a noticeable impact. i found that it does not. slowing auto-attacks by 30% for the first few seconds of a battle is going to save you somewhere in the range of about 200-300 damage (depending on armor levels, enemy attack speed and damage, being in melee range, etc.) its really a very small amount and not all enemy DG's will a

Magnus Rod: A good mana substitute for a HoL in Demigod Strategies Demigod Forums

The Magnus Rod is what all of you mana-dependent HoL users should try using. If you look at the stats, it may not seem terribly impressive at first glance. First, it has a pretty good passive, +50% mana regen. Also, it's active ability means that your mana regen only needs to work half as hard to refill the mana you use. Spells that cost 400 mana now only cost 200 mana with the Magnus Rod. If your mana regen is 20 mana a second, you refill your mana in 10 seconds instead of 20. I've f

It's called a Magnus Rod, and it is as badass as the HoL used to be (almost).

Reply to Rook: Mana siphon in Demigod Strategies Demigod Forums

You'll need a Magnus Rod to make this build work. The Essence of Magic favor item is probably needed, too. Stack these two with a Vlemish Helm and you'll have insane mana regen. This way, you only have to sacrifice one gearslot for mana. I think this build has potential. A concern: You don't have any of your shoulder turrets. That's pretty good DPS. Shoulder towers let you tag a lot of minions. Also, archers take advantage from Life Steal. I'm not quite sure yet

Blade of the Serpent and Essence of Magic are acceptable favor items for mana needs.

Reply to Epiphenomeon's Guide to the Rook (and why most other builds won't work) in Demigod Strategies Demigod Forums

I just discovered something cool. The Archer Tower benefits from life steal. Also, the minimum amount of health that can be stolen is 1. So, buy a cheap Bloodstone Ring, and you get +1 health for each arrow that hits. I almost think it's worth it for the Rook to buy it. Thoughts?
