The new DG has close combat and ranged abilities, why don't you post on the preview thread about how his tail barb thing needs a range nerf?

Reply to Remove Gold and EXP from Demigod kills in Demigod Demigod Forums

[quote who="AntiCommie" reply="37" id="2334187"]One little change I'd make with the OPs suggestion would be to make gold earned from kills a set price. Say 1000$. This way, early kills mean as much as late kills. As a modifier to this, make DG levels scale the amount of gold you get. Maybe 10% per level difference. A level1 DG killing a Level1 DG will get 1k gold. A level1 DG killing a level5 DG will get 1500 gold, and a level 5 killing a level1 w

Reply to Give me a hint about the TB! in Demigod Strategies Demigod Forums

I've been told I play a pretty brutal fire TB. First off I won't play fire TB in a 2v2 against Sedna, I just won't. Even in a 3v3 if they have Senda I'll only play TB if my team is stacking heavy damage. It's just too difficult to beat Sedna in a mana war, I'll generally go Rook if I expect to be fighting extended battles. This will change if the autoattack bug is fixed. Currently though 90% of your damage is going to come from your damage skills, much moreso than any other DG

Especially one that eliminates the primary counter to the Ultimate (having minions nearby to take the damage).[/quote]Minions aren't small units for the purpose of knockup. There are no free minion kills. However I do agree that having subskills which only enhance another skill is bad. It needs some other additional effect.

Reply to Demigod Preview: The Demon Assassin in Demigod Journals Demigod Forums

I just hope shadow swap has at least a 1.0 second cast time. I really think that clutch interrupts on this guy to save your team would add a neat level of depth, not to mention you could artificially increase the range of the ability this way (since it would counter movement during the cast time) without giving it a crazy base range. Also it would give the person being teleported time to move somewhere clever, like onto mines.

Except for the flag locks you could accomplish the same thing by buffing or adding more things like compost, life steal, and mana return on hit without adding more randomness to the game.

Reply to clearly visible glow around all DG's in Demigod Multiplayer Demigod Forums

The visuals on this game really are excellent. If GPG were interested in this idea I bet they could implement it in a way that would look pretty cool if your computer had the specs to display it. I'm also surprised to see so many people opposed to the idea of it. The code is already there if they just did something simple like a basic outline and I assume it'd be an option you could disable. You might even be able to work it into balance considerations. For example on left 4 d

Reply to Get the AI out of multi-PLAYER games in Demigod Demigod Forums

Well bear in mind that if your team is all AIs you can just hit concede to end the game. If you do it within three minutes the game won't count and you can either queue up or do something else. Sadly if you were stuck with AIs in the first place there's a good chance it means that there aren't enough people online to fill out your team. They just fixed the players in queue indicator so that should help us all to gauge the likelihood of getting those AI partners. Also next patc

Reply to Favor Item HP Reduction in Demigod Demigod Forums

HP items are not overpowered. In 3s a DG can end in 5-10 seconds already. If you're saying HP items are too good what you're saying is that fights currently last too long, and if that's what you think then you are mistaken. Outside of 2v2s and 1v1s and HP items aren't a problem. If they reduced the HP of all the DGs via item nerfs they would have to add an HP flag in your base on every map that were intended for 3v3 and up (there effectively is one on Exile already). You're re

Reply to Dear devs: Please "fix" Random in Demigod Demigod Forums

[quote who="Epiphenomenon" reply="6" id="2331776"]There is no advantage pre-launch, but it can translate to an advantage/disadvantage in-game. I've played games where my random team resulted in 2 UBs. You can counter dual Ooze and Spit before launch by choosing a different demigod. Less adjustment is possible once the game has launch. It's like playing roulette. It's fun, sure, but it hinders competitive play. Multiple players choosing random assassin is IMBA, imo
