[quote]why have integrated voice chat when you can have voice chat for free and in better format? Ventrilo and TS are lightyears beyond integrated voice chat imo.

Reply to Erebus Minion/Bite Spec Build in Demigod Strategies Demigod Forums

It's a good build and I'm sure a lot of people will have trouble stopping it. The most effective counters I've found (besides armor stacking, which is critical regardless) are: Staff of Renewal tower rook Most people won't view this as a good counter, but because this isn't a morale build, stacking up vlemish+plenor early will let you spam towers faster than EB can knock them down, and independent weapons+towers+your corner tower will protect you from minions well

Reply to [MOD] EREBUS in Demigod Modding Demigod Forums

I like the utility of a debuff clear and dodging ability, I'd be sad to see the debuff removal go, especially given EB's current weakness to UB. As a combat tool I like mist and I think it's fine as-is. As a combat avoidance tool I think it's overboard, and if you think that mines counter it then you're not using it the way I'm talking about, and I likely have no issue with how you're using it.

He's the guy with the most annoying minion swarm and whom you need the most AoE damage to beat, I think he should suffer for it. That being said, I do agree that it's a very underused ability, but that's at least partly because he's got so man

There's no direct, logical answer to it. It's a trick he's always had, it's a fundamental part of how he plays, it's a unique utility which contrasts Sedna's ability to remove debuffs repeatedly, it's a fun way to save teammates who would be otherwise doomed, especially a fragile

The whole things are 3d objects. There's no map maker because it would have to be some kind of full fledged 3d studio. They're pretty and all, but I really wish they'd made them 2d models like other RTSs and just dealt with them not being as nice to look at.

Reply to [MOD] THE BIG BALANCE PLAN -- Master Thread in Demigod Modding Demigod Forums

[quote who="ChromeWeasel" reply="25" id="2475265"]I think you should balance the summoned henchmen of QoT and Sedna by increasing their numbers rather than upping their power. Make the last rank of their summons summon 6 Shamblers/Yeti. This would make balancing much easier in the long run. That closer you are in total available minions for all generals, the more likely that items with henchmen bonuses will be even across the board. Example: Items that add +5 damage to minions are

I dunno, I assume they just like the increased DPS on higher ranks. It does actually do a pretty significant amount, maybe it's just to counter higher level unit upgrades that come wandering out of the portal.

You're right, it does still work, I hadn't been queueing my casts. That being said, I personally find removing that capacity to punish a team that doesn't guard the portal as dumbing down the game, and I especially don't want to see the utility of protecting people from debuffs other than stuns removed, seems like throwing the baby out with the bathwater.
