fire vs Ice
Demigod Forums
I keep seeing people say that Ice TB particularly makes good money. I thought that as long as you hit a mob once before it dies you get the gold for it. If thats the case then fire makes just as much money as ice using his aoe such as cof.
Ice TB has better range on his AOE than Fire TB, which need to get in close and personal for all his aoes. However, since Fire has 2 AOES vs ICE 1, i still think FIRE TB kills faster and have much more damage potential than ICE TB. Getting GOLD from mob kills are however, negligible. One DG kill yields more gold than 10 creep waves, so... this is really the poor mans way of farming.
You get more gold from the static ticker, or the first Citadel gold upgrade than you will ever get from creeps.
tagging rule goes like this...
you will gain your portion of the gold from the creep if either of these two things is true:
1) you have dealt at least 25% of the total damage to the creep
2) you delivered the killing blow to the creep
gold is split evenly among all eligible Demigods within range (its a large range, like 30 range units at least). the amount of gold each creep carries is based on what type of creep it is. very good info on this stuff can be found here: http://www.gamereplays.org/demigod/portals.php?show=page&name=demigod-economy-gold-guide
regarding the difference in farming efficiency between Fire and Ice TB, there's not much of one. Ice will farm creeps with Rain of Ice. Fire will do it with Circle of Fire or Fire Nova. Either build can nuke a whole creep wave with one shot and have their farming ability ready for use again by the time the next creep wave shows up.
total value of creeps for farming
minotaur 5x4 = 20
archer 2x8 = 16
basic creep wave is worth 36 gold
priests 3x33 = 99 gold
angels 2x66 = 132 gold
catas 2x66 = 132 gold
giants 2x100 =200 gold
so you can see why people hesitate to buy those creep upgrades. the upgraded creeps give MUCH MUCH MUCH more gold when farmed than the basic creeps.
