if it's obvious you're not going to win before the game ends then it was probably obvious you wern't going to win before the game started and you shouldn't even be in the game conceding sucks do football / soccer players concede when they're losing their match?
I really don't like how you make the XP1 upgrade seem important. It totally depends on your team and your playstyle wether it's usefull or not, it's certainly not something you should alway get and if you do get it you have to get XP2 too and keep the xp flag, locked if you have to. Also, getting priests early does the opposite of what you try to accomplish with your XP upgrade, you give the enemy the chance to sit back and get more xp / gold than you.
don't concede / quit when you're losing / can't win the only reason to concede or quit is if one of your teammates leave imo I hate it when I'm winning and the other team concedes and keeps me from destroying their citadel
I've got this bug when I want to look at certain posts on the forum, the page loads and all, but it only show part of the topic, some topics don't show at all, some stop after the 7th post or so while there are 9 replies ... I have this bug both on my desktop and laptop so it's not my computer!
[quote who="Sarmis" reply="1" id="2417512"]... Without penitence? Seriously? Morale instead of penitence? Do you understand what armor reduction means? Or what an interrupt is? [/quote] I never said I'm a pro, I never said this build is good either I'm no beginner either, a beginner (as in it's a minion build, the whole point is to keep your minions alive and stay out of bat
[quote who="playgroundlegend" reply="44" id="2417442"] Quoting FutileEmotion, reply 42 As was said repeatedly earlier, 10% level boost means that you hit the next level QUICKER, and that is never more huge than in the beginning of the game. Hitting level 2 spit before they do means I can push them back. The person who buys XP1 is going to be under-itemized, but it will help his team mates greatly. First to grasp <
nice post too bad the table is pretty much unreadable, unless you know all the speeds on dg's and items by hard =(
Only tried this in two games so far, lost one, won one. I had a terrible team in the first game though. I totally ripped the other team's towers apart and got quite a few kills too in both games. This is not a build for beginners. It's hard to stay alive, it's hard to manage all your minions! Skills: 1: Raise Dead Ward I 2: Divine Justice I 3: Morale I 4: Raise Dead Ward II 5: Surge of Faith I<b
the real question here is wether the benefit of buying xp1 (& 2) is greater, smaller or equal to the benefit of buying extra items with the gold instead personally I go for items, xp might be better I don't know there's no real way to prove this using maths either, since you can't express the advantage of an extra item / level in numbers guess the only method left is a statistic research (have fun with that) it's probably also game dependant, in some games
nice read, didn't know about dancing so far
[quote who="Zechnophobe" reply="1" id="2413906"]All good tips, let me add a few in the same vein: - Always kill steal if possible. You never know when they'll blink, invuln, heal, etc. [/quote] lol no? well if you have to you have to but try to go for the assist if possible I guess this only relates to regulus since he's the only char that can really killsteal, just go for the assist
[quote who="Zechnophobe" reply="13" id="2414137"]I would actually disagree that a free lane doesn't provide more xp. I know that in theory you can get the same amount of the lane enemy or not, but you also get to do peripherals, like capturing an extra flag, tagging more creeps (for gold) and maybe killing a tower (again for gold). The indirect advantages of not having someone competing with the lane definately turn into gold and to a lesser extent xp. And of course, as a team you will
I kinda changed my mind about priests these last few games They're really great, seen them take down some towers now. Still wouldn't get them too early unless the enemy is using them to push you back (and they're actually pushing you back too) I don't see a reason to give the enemy more xp and gold just to get a little more pushing early game, unless ofcourse you need the extra push @ RAWRRRR hmm okay, but you will still outlvl the enemy
sounds like a good plan just one lvl in spirits, doubling the effect of Soul Power and just keep your spirits at the citadel the entire game
[quote who="playgroundlegend" reply="10" id="2413034"]instead of warpstone focus on cit upgrades and taking out towers / pushing the enemy. you win. Leave it to someone to make the game more complicated than it really is [/quote] I agree, end-game money shouldn't be spent buying artifacts get creep upgrades (armory / blacksmith) and win!

don't know the exact order I always get penitence directly when it's available next I get Soul Frenzy after that Shield or Surge of Faith depending on the game I never save a skill point having some spirits around lvl 1-5 might be better, but they'll be useless after that unless I put more points in spirits so basically you'll have a wasted skill point, most of the game takes place past lvl 5
getting only one lvl of spirits seems stupid to me also even one level in spirits is one level less in Penitence, Soul Frenzy, Shield, Surge of Faith at low lvl
I recently started paying Oak. I've played around 15 games with him in a row now. Now I'm wondering about spirits. Should I always get them? Should I get them only in certain situations or vs certain demigods? ... I noticed I got pwned pretty badly the first few lvls by an oak with spirits while I didn't have them. Spirits also seem to do some pretty nice damage. There's a few disadvantages too though: - you need to plant flags where creeps will die<br /
he must have some speed to be able to outrun bite, penitence and mines sounds rather impossible to me
looks at it from another side: you don't get xp 1 & 2 but you get some better equipment instead this gives you a bigger advantage over the other team than having some extra xp and the advantage is instant, you don't have to wait till lvl 10 now with this advantage you can push the other team back easier than with some extra xp pushing the other team back in return gives you extra xp & gold from the creep waves and from some easier kills I've never not
@ RAWRRRR Maybe killing enemy demigods doesn't give you xp directly (thx for telling me that, didn't know) But they still give you indirect xp since your lane is cleared and you can kill more creeps I've never noticed an xp diffrence with the other team when we had xp 1 & 2 I always notice a rather big (2-3 lvls) xp diffrence when we kill the other team often
[quote who="MixMagic" reply="28" id="2412705"] Quoting sparky2015, reply 27 Quoting Legolan, reply 4I want to add to the OP's question: How do you beat an ooze UB with a monk (any good general can send him one) without 2v1ing him or doing the same thing? Kill the monk? Even if the general who supplied the monk is paying attention and immediately respawns it and sends it over, it'll still take it a while to walk over to the other lane.&nb
ever noticed how slow a rook is and how fast a (good) reg is? might work though, how about you try it a few times and let us know what happens? =)
@ Dielan I never buy priests in response to the enemy buying them, I also discourage my team to do it. If you can keep pushing the enemy or even just hold them without priests when they have priests you'll get more exp and gold than the other team. But as mentioned, if you can't hold them or push them you should buy priests. I've played all kinds of games, no priests, enemy has priests we don't, we have priests they don't, never noticed the diffrence. Both as assa
