Reply to Unclean Beast player says UB needs balancing in Demigod Strategies Demigod Forums

Also, UB has better survival stats than Oak (higher armor, higher natural attack, higher natural speed; I'm pretty sure on 1, definitly sure on 3, and on the fence about 2), plus with an Ooze build, a minion oak is screwed, an AA oak is screwed, and I have way more health because I don't need any mana items.

[quote who="Murth" reply="1" id="2236715"] Quoting Milskidasith, reply 25 1. That's a problem with your build, then. I've been able to stack 5k HP with heal and pounce. 2. True, but priests heal sporadically and heal less than heal does, and they cost money that could be used for items (they are very cost efficient, though). 3. How do you figure? Unless you assume you have a lot more disposable cash than the enemy, you aren't going to have higher speed an

[quote who="RapierX" reply="24" id="2236610"] Quoting Milskidasith, reply 23 Except for an HP stacked character with heal... HP stacking uses cash, heal uses items. It's not hard to combine the two, AND you can still pounce freely (I go pounce and heal). Plus, without heal, Sedna's poor DPS makes her killable by... anybody. Pounce is a good interrupt, but doesn't give damage in the leagues of fireball, Spit, Ooze, Mines, Hammer Slam, or any o

On a large map, as Sedna, I can cap two flags before any other DGs even get to the front lines, then after waiting a few more seconds I can port to capture another 2, all while creeping. Amulet of teleportation is basically the ultimate quick xp tool, quick getaway tool, and quick reinforcing

[quote who="CdrRogdan" reply="22" id="2236555"]Actually Rapier is right. This build works believe it or not. Most games don't reach level 20, so I really have no idea what skills might be taken during lategame, but to focus on pounce and HP+priests instead of Pounce+Heal and MP mid-early game is a viable choice. I would argue that on prison (where having a healer is almost a necessity) this might not function as well, but on most other maps where you will often have to battle solo f

UB and Sedna really don't have great synergy. Sedna can heal... but honestly, their skills don't compliment each other at keeping the enemy from getting away or dealing damage. The only thing is that they have two effective interrupts, which means that by staggering them you can keep the enemy from potting/teleporting. Granted, Sedna's heal works well with everything, but really, that combo has no ways to keep an enemy in range to be killed that a lone UB doesn't (besides Sedna's inte

Ok, let's imagine three 2v2 teams. Which of the teams is probably the best?

Because of synergy . Synergy Basics: Synergy is basically the

Also, a lot of times there is a difference between "behind" and "no chance of winning." While I admit, a comeback from the enemy being godlike is unlikely unless his teammates were shit (after all, godlike is... a dozen kills? That's, at minimum, assuming they were somehow all on you at level one, 7200 gold and a ton of EXP, with a reasonable amount for that [with your level at 7] being 10k.), sometimes you can be down a bit but not lose. EX: One time I was playing with an Oak and I was UB. T
