what kind of combination gives this? in Demigod Strategies Demigod Forums

When playing nightmare sometimes (not always even if they're all lvl 20) one enemy usually at level 10 gets some items that makes them run extremly fast, much faster than anything else in the game (not just wand-duration) and can go into our base and tank 4 demigods (with crap items) and all towers without losing more than max 10% health. I the AI had been any good he/her would kill the citadel with this set, but it doesn't. I guess there is some combination of artifacts, but what can it be?

Reply to What was the design rational behind DG minions not awarding exp? in Demigod Demigod Forums

[quote who="To" reply="7" id="2337897"]Reinforcements are consistent for both sides. Minions are exclusive to generals. If minions gave xp and gold, the team with the most generals would be at an innate disadvantage. An Erebus or Oak planting his flag would be a boost to the opposing team, as it's difficult to micro your new minions the instant they spawn in order to prevent them from dying. I also feel minions are perfectly viable as cannon fodder or soakers, and making

Reply to What is the design rationale behind drops? in Demigod Demigod Forums

To clarify before this escalates. It was about the context. Stacked told you he didn't think you played enough games, 3. You said you played more, just not pantheon. It sounded like you only played 3 pantheon, but 300 custom games or so. I pointed out that you played 7. Not to invalidate your opinion, not to bash, but if stacked didn't think 3 was enough, 7 wouldn't either. I don't say I'm on stacked side here, but he has a point. One way for you to please stacked would be to claim th

Reply to Matchmaking in Demigod Problem Reports Demigod Forums

[quote quoting="post"] I just had the worst MP experience of my life. As in would rather be playing counterstrike with a bunch of 14 y/o using hax. I tried pantheon for the first time in forever and it sucked @ss. The matchmaking was totally hosed. Ended up with two guys playing first game ever against seasoned vets. The noobs bailed on me so I got two ai. It was terrible! I love this game and that experience made me almost not want to play. Imagine if it was my first or second time! Ho

[quote who="Legolan" reply="57" id="2335244"] Twinsen, just ignore the trolls. To address the issue of drops, I personally like them, but I can understand the point about it being random (hp pot or mana scroll). I suppose that one way to fix this would be to make it always be an hp pot (an that preserves Erebus' ability), what do you think of that? Would that solve the issue while not making too many other issues?[/quote] thank you. Well, I'm not for or against

[quote who="Polynomial" reply="35" id="2334137"] Thus, as its said in this thread before, my speculation would be Demigods drop potions to keep people in the fight rather than having to run back to the crystal to heal up. You won a fight and you need to go back to heal? Ugh.[/quote] If that is the case, why don't give the killing team the bonus. It seems like some here just wants to side-track the discussion. I didn't start this to stop reinforcing kills or anything like that.

[quote who="To" reply="25" id="2333946"]I have reservations about them myself. It becomes luck based whether you get the potion you can benefit the most from, and it contributes to that downward spiral effect for when you start losing. I'm not calling it unbalanced as it's obviously the same for both sides, but fun and frustration are things to consider as well.[/quote] I fully agree about the balance issue. It has nothing to do with balance. Equal for all doesn't mean it's

Reply to What is the design rationale behind drops? in Demigod Demigod Forums

I think a lot of good discussions have emerged here. Some people tend to think that it's a bonus for killing, but the matter is that it takes a second of so for the drop to appear. In most fights, waiting around for that time just go grab the potion can get you killed, and at the same time, it gives ranged DG time to close in. So the idea that it is a reward for melee DG is just not valid, and it is not necesarily a bonus for a kill since everyone can grab it, not just in your team but anyone

I wonder about the design decision to make deaths spawn potions. I don't understand why it's there, and I can't find a single reason for it to be that way. Can anyone explain to me why the are there (excpet to work with a side-effect of one of EB's skills). thanks

Reply to Favor Item HP Reduction in Demigod Demigod Forums

Another approach to this (from other team-pvp-games) is to look at the current spamming of abilities. Right now, direct-damage, slow and stun are plenty, and with cooldown so low, one or two mana-items can make you use them as soon as the cooldown allows you. This makes inventory a split between basically hp-items (2-3; unbreakable, hauberk anyone?) and mana-item (1-2, faceguard, battlecrown anyone?). You can get speed from wand, and not lose a precious inventory-slot. This is basical

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

I think you are wrong, but right. I'll explain. Doubles is not a problem, if for anyone it's a problem for the team with doubles in it. But as I said, I also think you are right. If I pick random I'd ranther get a unique demigod on my team, that's why i think your solution is good, but for all the wrong reasons.
