Reply to Ooze: An Unclean Beast Guide in Demigod Strategies Demigod Forums

[quote who="HateForest" reply="18" id="2235673"]1 point to ooze is always helpful I find, if I'm just camping a lane I can always go and spit on a tower near by... Also it adds confusion and fear. Once you spit the enemy assumes a spit built and will spec for it, making your ooze even stronger, also when you spit people tend to panic (seen many a +15 lvl erebus hit mist to counter a level 1 spit *chuckle) makes them watse mana and leaves them open for a grasp then auto chase.

Her only other skills are Summon Yeti (and yetis are horrible) and counter-healing, which is a useful denying tactic but not particularly great (and I'm not sure if it even works on potions and/or sigils of vitality).

Crits increase your DPS by like 10% (or with Ashkandor, 30%, I think.) It's really not a huge amount, but it is easier to spike somebody wth huge crits.

So this means that if you AA, you hit each enemy once, and don't try to kill them until you do that. (though Oozing probably tags all the creeps for me.) Nice to know!

[quote who="RegnorVex" reply="11" id="2232800"]He's not on some trip, he's absolutely right. Sedna is a healer, of course, but Sedna is not designed to primarily heal the rest of the team. And he never suggested he doesn't take Heal, he clearly stated that when he can heal another he does, and I do, too. I always keep an eye out for my teammates when they're involved in a fight nearby, especially if we have an opportunity to 2x1 someone and I just love waiting fo

UB's high innate speed + inner beast (which he skipped) + boots is enough to catch up to anybody not specifically built for speed (wand of speed, swift anklet, and boots of speed; just swift anklet and boots isn't enough.) Without Inner Beast, you can still chase down some people, but you are somewhat limited.

[quote who="LORD-ORION" reply="5" id="2234010"]There is one negative I can think of in the early game. Usually there is a heavier forest of towers behind the upfront unsupported one. This allows weaker DGs to farm in safety early on, as the creeps will now advance to an area you can't push the enemy out of.[/quote] The creeps only advance farther if you have upgraded your creeps before the enemy has (which is useless; unless you are up to catas, damage/hp inc

[quote who="castle9mm" reply="19" id="2233151"] Quoting Milskidasith, reply 17 The basic thing is, you have a bigger HP pool than the other person, and are doing 140+X DPS (X being AA) to the person, while speed debuffing them and basically making it impossible for them to run, while they are doing .6 * Y+Z DPS (Y being AA, Z being skills) with a smaller HP pool.

Reply to A Tale of Two Beasts in Demigod Strategies Demigod Forums

I suppose you could skip Narmoth's Ring and go for Heart of Life... assuming you aren't facing other (spit) UB's, that should clear up your mana problems for a while while giving you an item that is still fairly effective at keeping your HP up. But personally, I like going with Ooze. It's just less of a hassle than trying to juggle mana with spit + Ooze, and in the end you wind up slower (or relatively slower, if you skip out on diseased claws) and without the stat boost o

Reply to A Tale of Two Beasts in Demigod Strategies Demigod Forums

With unbreakable you don't have enough mana, trust me. You need a blade of the serpant to do more than like, 4 spits without going for mana items. I'd rather go pure Ooze and HP.

Reply to [UB] The Beast Within - A Bestial Wrath Build in Demigod Strategies Demigod Forums

A build focused around a crap skill, especially using it early game when it gives you an even crappier bonus, is not going to work. This is not going to work. I've seen builds that take Wrath late; which can work; it can let him really effectively pressure key structures. But you aren't going to beat UB, or even other DGs not as focused on anti-demigod tactis, by focusing on a skill that only really gets it use late-game and pouring points into it as it becomes availabl

[quote who="Lieu-" reply="25" id="2230845"]I see what you are saying and it's not an edge case. The theory behind effective hp is not just useful in the one case where it's 100% pure non-spell damage. That particular case is on the edge. The usefulness of effective hp is not limited to that one case. If the damage type split is 50/50 then the maths that x armor gives y ehp is still useful. You can make a decision on how valuable armor is compared to health in this situation, which

[quote who="Zechnophobe" reply="24" id="2230251"]I think Transitive is making a good point. During the course of a combat there is a certain amount of your total health that is being done by mitigatible attacks. For instance, I play Rook and start with Blood of the Fallen. That's ~2700 hit points at level 1. There is only so much ability damage an opponent can dish out, all your HP beyond that point is effected by armor. In the above example that's often 1500 or more da
