i dont think regulus is balanced

i dont think regulus is balanced

ok flame me im a noob whatever

 

i just think he isnt

and stats prove me right as its becoming the most played hero

http://pantheon.demigodthegame.com/demigods/

and those stats are from day 0 i think if u take last month its probably much worse

 

being able to snipe from idiotic range it means he can be unstoppable grinding towers unnoticed (due to his range upgrade)

AND still help his team to combat enemy DGs

 

i would nerf his snipe range  and add tower-range as a citadel upgrade but im no developer

 

flame away,but i know imba when i see it

Regulus is fine the way he is.

IMHO if anyone is OP its Oak but that could be because I genrelly play Erebus or TB, both of which are quite squishy.

if anything i think reg needs a buff for some skills that hes got.

reg's snipe isnt as good as wat u make it out to be. his snipe means u just have to be more weary about how long u should stay in a heated situation, thats all.

Long tread, only read the OP.

But yeah, Reg is Imba, he should be buffed up, in his current state he is a bad choice... Oh wait, I don't agree with the OP, oh well, :D

I also agree with that

I really don't think he needs buffs, at level 7 and beyond reg is quite good.

Ok antikid... lets say for a minute I'm actually considering what you said.

Reg is imba. Ok why?

you said... because he outranges towers and can kill them for free.

the response... reg is squishy in combat.

 

Do you not see the balance?

Oak can do it with shield... also can use shield in combat.

Sedna can heal... can also heal in combat.

QoT can shield... and also in combat.

In almost no circumstances whatsoever does lvl1 range help reg at all in combat. You have to spend an extremely valuable skill point... to take down towers for free. Thats the balance. A whole skill point just to be a tower killer, where everyone elses skill is usefull almost anywhere.

I wish Uproot were 1 skill point...

Off-topic :P

Every demigod can take on a tower if left alone i don´t see a problem here. And why isn´t one of your teammates harassing regulus? A Regulus on the enemy team is a free lane in my eyes since he sucks at holding flags.

And towers aren´t supposed to hold the enemy off just to slow him down to give you time to react. By lvl 5-7 towers go down anyway so whats the big deal.

Dito here.  Granted I don't reach level 15 in most games, but his late game skills are completely laughable.

If Regulus is overpowered it is definitely not from snipe. I play regulus a lot and sometimes i get level 1 snipe to help out my teammates for flagcontrol early in the game. That is because snipe have it's uses but it is probably Regulus worst skill. If anything, maim and mines are the skills that are powerful, but try to play Regulus for a couple of games and abuse snipe and range and see if you still think he's OP. It is easy to think every DG you face is OP, it's another story when you play them.

All demigods are good at taking down towers and I dont think regulus has any advantage there. At level2 reg has very low base damage and isnt exactly the best tower killer.

Reply #39 Top

He's annoying, but not overpowered.

I've found myself lugging around 2 of the cheaper health potions whenever I can when there's a Regulus on the other team(Thanks to some advice from a thread I myself made about Regulus), since most Regulus players online seem to think Snipe is the be all and end all skill, and sure, it's a nice finisher, but a quick pop of 1000 hp and it's completely worthless.

Honestly, my suggestion is just go for him. You should either kill him, or he'll get away(provided you don't do something stupid).

Either way he's off the lane, so you've won the exchange.

Reg is a hit and run player. Yes he can outrange a tower, but it takes some time to take it down, unless your already carrying Mage, Ash and Slayers Wraps.

OP, are you playing with high gold or something? Lvl 2 reg is not a tower killer any more than a Lvl 2 beast/rook.

As soon as another DG shows up it's time to run....

it has been said dozen of times, regulus is just popular and easy to play, nothing more nothing less

Beast is more annoying than Regulus. :D

Yes and No.

He is popular, but he is VERY HARD to play with. If you play him well, damn, its annoying, otherwise it will be a nice feeder ;)

easy to play at average/above average

hard to play at top, like about any other DG, the difference is other demigods are way harder to play at average lvl, being most of them melees mainly

Reply #46 Top

His mines are op, thats all.

So much fail by OP in this thread... 

1) Most played != Most powerful. Most played = Most popular. Which DGs are actually strong and weak is entirely and only dependent on how they are played at high levels of competition. The most played stat is completely corrupted by the results of average/noob games. 

1A) In fact, this fact has come up before in a previous thread. Why do Forces of Light always lose Pantheon? Because too many players pick Reg, and then get horribly slaughtered by UB/LE from Forces of Darkness. 

2) Any DG can take down a tower if you ignore him for long enough. But no DG can take down a tower if theres a DG defending it, unless hes been fed all game or something. Considering that most towers are in the creep paths, where you should always have people anyways (to gain experience, gold, hold flags, etc) its not especially difficult to prevent your towers from getting raped. 

3) Regulus has some decent abilities, but as others have said, hes below average compared to the rest of the cast. Sedna, UB, Oak, and LE are generally better.

I don't agree with this. The increase in range is a very useful skill. It allows the regulus to do his auto attack from further away so he can stay out of battle but still do damage. I usually get +25 damage gloves and a +25 damage favour item and in early game my auto attack can be very effective against most of the more squishy demigods. The extra range also lets you chase a demigod a little further as you can shoot from further away.

Regulus needs a buff to make him better in games smaller than 4vs4.

I find Regulus is fine in a 3v3 but he should never be left on his own until mid to late game. Regulus is a support type demigod.

Imo, Regulus needs a speed buff. He can't hold in close combat, so he should have more speed at least.

He's not OP, imo, he's a bit gimped, pretty hard to master and absolutely NOT FOR NOOBS.

P.S. Absence of interrupts also doesn't make him better.

if you wanna see someone really take out towers than check out minion builds of Erebus or any Queen of Thorn with Ground Spikes. those are the real tower busters in the game. Regulus is strictly second class compared to them.
