[quote]Hybrid Beast: Very well rounded, although not very strong in any one regard. It is strong early game, and strong mid game, but loses its power late game from a lack of focus. This build seems to fare better than the spit beast in more situations, although the lack of health and depedance on mana to complete the dps makes it an easier target for spikers and for towers.[/quote] Entirely wrong. So incredibly wrong it's amazing. Hybrid builds are strongest lategame; at that point,

You need 6k just to get the basic gear for an Ooze UB, not counting health pots, wand of speed, TP scrolls, or flag locks. I'm curious how you can run a hybrid, which also requires mana, for less money than that.

Make the rewards aesthetic, or, like favor items, easy to work towards. Favor items work out well; you can get them quickly, they are (mostly) all useful to some degree (though most all items relating to combat are eclipsed by blade of the serpant or BotF, and otherwise it is swift anklet or teleport scroll), and you can still earn more and be more diverse. It's kind of like in Guild Wars: By level 20, you could have a good build or two under your belt, but by playing more you could h

Now, a lot of people say "Never kill an enemy if you are going to die after doing it." Those people are wrong. However, you should know WHEN to do it, because you can screw it up and feed the enemy as much as, if not more than, you get. Assuming that the enemy is weakened and fleeing into towers and you are weak enough the towers may kill you trying to leave (after the kill), here are some questions to ask: Can I kill them for sure, even if I'm being hit by all the towers in r

Reply to Unclean Beast: Spit vs Ooze in Demigod Strategies Demigod Forums

To Zechno: True, you cannot focus the enemy damage. But you CAN be the first one in to the enemies, which makes minions, creeps, and towers attack you first. With a rook tower farm or a push against a team with catas or so, those can be important. Also, enemies tend to throw good skills after bad; if you run in first, the enemies will target you, and then A: they are on cooldown and B: they stupidely attack you instead of the nice TB that is frying them (although if you have a TB and a UB and

Reply to Unclean Beast: Spit vs Ooze in Demigod Strategies Demigod Forums

Excellent post transitive. I can only disagree on one point; you buy unbreakable boots first in your hybrid build. You don't need mana until level 5, and at level 5 you can usually have two pieces of gear, so buying a less effective HP item at the beginning is not a great decision. I prefer to open with Nimoth's, then Unbreakable boots, and then Wand of Speed if necessary; before level 7 or so, enemy DG's killing me is not a big deal since I can generally tell if I'm going to be able to beat

Reply to Enfos! in Demigod Ideas Demigod Forums

I honestly can't see many DG's being used besides TB (now some of those "let's slap on all the AoE moves despite the fact that RoI IV kills everything but super buffed minions" might be useful), and maybe rook (tower farm to slow down creeps) and UB (Ooze + high health regeneration = weaker mobs for him and everybody else). Not many other DG's have good AoE options; Sedna seems totally worthless, Erebus doesn't have great AoE though with an "infinite mist" build you could theoretically get on

Slash is a bad move; shuriken storm is better in every way. The injection is interesting, but I'm confused on the final stage... So it gives him 1.5 attack for each time he injected himself, along with the other bonuses? If it lasts infinite time, why does it say it has a duration of 20 seconds? Also, his passives are pretty nuts. The first one is a 10% damage reduction against everything (if dodges affect skill; I'm not sure). Most people don't have that kind of damage reduct
