Yeah, the main problem with it is that while you can put a ton of pressure on them when they stay and fight, the pressure stops completely when they decide to run. Rook is a deceptively hard target to run from with ind weapons.

You can one-shot the minon waves, they practically become a non-issue and when you cap an enemy portal and camp it creep waves are a non-issue. Regardless though it's not like anyone but Oak or QoT doesn't also see a massive effectiveness

I like talking to people, I don't like typing in the middle of a fight. I'll always avoid playing with any new players who won't hop on vent. You can learn pretty much anything I'm going to type to you in-game from the forums. Find a build, try it out, and do what the guide tells you to do. The kind of skill you gain over time requires a much more mundane type of instruction. "Advance," "fall back a little, you don't have enough HP," "don't go to the crystal yet, stand right there unt

They hardly 'block out the sun.' QoT can get 10 minions, EB can get 16. A full minion QoT will grind up a full minion EB or Oak in a slugfest.

Automulch is problematic though because you've gotta send in shamblers manually to get them into damage range. Great for healing but limits the functionality of the skill quite a bit.

Also how many times does it have to be said that towers do excellent damage late game, especially against creeps? They hit for about 190 on creeps. If you have 8 towers up (not that you always will) they will deal about 1500 damage every two seconds, or 750 DPS for those not mathematically inclined. They two-shot giants that aren't fully or nearly fully upgraded with a second valor flag and players only mitigate about 40-50% of their damage in most cases. The idea that 300+ DPS is an

You really shouldn't skip or even delay Trebuchet, especially not for God's Strength. I believe Trebuchet hits DGs for 250, so with good armor that's still going to be 150+ damage and it fires every 5 seconds. Most of the time you'll be hitting for at 180+, it has small radius splash damage against creeps, and it strikes structures for 500. The ability targets DGs first, towers second, and others third, so it will lock onto a hero in a busy fight unless it's already locked onto a towe

Reply to All random game-- double rook?!? in Demigod Strategies Demigod Forums

A tower lane on each side with a third player (preferably a general) bouncing back and forth is pretty much unbeatable. Once you max out towers you start maxing hammer slam, I just don't know what could stop it if both rook were good.

Why bother with EoM if you're getting Warp Area? At rank 2 a BotS gives you full mana off it, seems pointless to fuss with EoM. That's not even mentioning that BotS gives better regen than EoM even if you don't get Warp Area.

If you guys are considering doing a 1v1, I suggest avoiding Bad_Wong and -Heros-Temp. They're not cheaters, but they have very tedious avoidance strategies and are more than happy to play out 60+ minute games. I had a 73 minute game with heroes a little bit ago where he literally did nothing but speed stack and use a warpstone to cross the gap for the first half of the game... he was happy to run circles around the artifact flag indefinitely until I got bored and went back to the midd

Reply to Why the DA hate? in Demigod Demigod Forums

In my opinion most DAs have very little staying power and just struggle to make a difference in the majority of extended fights. If they can waltz in and disrupt a 1v1 or 2v2 they're great, but when you need them to hold the line 1v1 or 2v2 for an extended period of time they just don't stack up.

I avoid people who have to brag after every single kill. Just played a game with gl-Coki and he did it, Cowbutt used to be really bad about it too (but I think he stopped since then) and there's others floating around out there. I'm no angel when it comes to nerd raging, but I generally do mine at the end of the game, not throughout. That's not to say it's better and I don't blame people who avoid playing with me because of it, I'm just saying that I don't appreciate the mid-game shit talking

QoT does get a DPS advantage over Sedna because she can wipe out creep waves while you fight. They'll build up if you do actually get into an extended endurance fight and they'll do a good 100 DPS. That being said, Healing Wind is huge.
