Keemossi - I'll update my Build in a bit, thanks for reminding me. I only use mulch if there's heavy hitters like Reg on the field. The shamblers themselves aren't too useful but they are basically free pots. I used to play the closed only build you have, but I've since learned it isn't very effective as it offers your team little other than shield. If I feel I can do without mulch, I'll almost always get uproot and thus spike wave earlier as a result. Daikaze -
1. Yes, I can. Solid, basic gameplay that's fun on the basic level is what keeps me coming back. It's the same stuff that makes chess, checkers, poker, or any other classic still fun. 2. Well, the community was perfect until the game released. A few questionable people piqued up after that, but it's not too bad yet. I won't lie to you though, it's hard to point out an online community that isn't trash in some part. Typically, most online communities are trash overall. With time a lot
No info on it yet either, hmm.
Tell me they're up now, I'm about to get off work and I'm hankering for some Demigodness.
[quote who="Sakhari" reply="4" id="2151779"]Yep. Standard practice at Gamestop. It's one reason most department stores tend to be much better avenues for PC game purchases. [/quote] Especially these days. Sad, really.
[quote who="AvionS" reply="2" id="2151859"]It's a frog [/quote] I wondered how you figured that one out, hehe.
Ok, here's my honest and fair shot: I'll start by saying if you've ever played DoTA, you'll have a rough idea of what to expect. Generally it's an rts with all the same basic requirements. The differences are that you only control one "unit". This unit is like a hero from similar games, far more powerful than normal units and with several abilities himself/herself. If you've ever played diablo, your hero and his advancement is almost exactly that same as it was in Diablo. Now

[quote who="innociv" reply="19" id="2151780"]QoT is SOMEWHAT weak if your teamates suck. She just needs a buff to her open form.. like faster attack speed and another effect to uproot, like creating saplings when a building effected by it is destroyed. [/quote] While I disagree that she needs them, those would be interesting effects. If anything, it would be nice if open had a bonus just for the heck of it. It doesn't have to be amazing. I'd say longer range and

Even then, she's not that. Her creeping ability is one of the best in the game, her shield saves lives, and she can devastate towers. All these are powerful in their own way, even if her Demigod killing power is likely the worst of them all. Yes I know, but F
[quote who="AngryZealot" reply="10" id="2151619"]Queen of Thorns feels very weak. I don't know if she is, but she feels that way. Can't damage for jack. [/quote] [quote who="Dead Ghost" reply="8" id="2151585"]Hmmm, i think the only DG that is kinda weak is the Queen of Thorns. The rest of them are pretty balanced, they all *can* be powerfull, the weakest link is only the player, imo... [/quote] She's not weak, as I pointed out: [
Get the priests first, they'll probably be the most useful to you early on. Idols not as "must have" as people think they are, but they are damn useful in some builds. The only general I really play a lot at the moment is QoT, and I only use priests for her. I upgrade them slowly over time.
You pretty much got it down exactly Possibly. And no, I don't see a reason to use this exploit so I don't use it on my generals. It should be fixed regardless, but how effective it really is is up in the air.
I agree with Exile. They are all useful in some form or shape. Reg is actually great at killing demigods if played correctly and his mines are an amazing aoe that when used correctly can be used to both kill demigods or creeps. Thus, he's not nearly as weak as you think. The balance in this game is actually very good. If any demigod would be considered "weak", it would be Queen of Thorns. Even then, she's not that. Her creeping ability is one of the best in the game, her shield saves
This is called harassing and it's a lovely tactic. If done correctly, you waste more time keeping yourself alive while he creeps and pushes. To counter it early game, I'd honestly get a buddy to gank him or switch lanes with a ranged demigod who can harass back. Queen of Thorns is a great counter to UB harass, her shield makes his spit useless and her ranged attack + minions can harass him all day since he is melee. Reg is good at this as well if he watches for the spit. In your case,
Had it backwards, doh. Towards Chaotic Evil from Lawful good. Fixed it.
Do enough "bad" things and your alignment will change from Lawful Good towards Chaotic Evil .

Honestly, does it matter? Yes. Because the developers intended and still intend for games to last for 1/2 to 1/3 of that time. Because I don't want to make DG a way of life.

Usually Rook stacks movement speed to make up for this weakness. Anklets, + Boots of Movement, + Cloak of Elvenkind, + Wand of Speed = a very fast Rook. Normally though most just get the boots of movement and anklets, then pop the wand whenever they want to chase. Like any other demigod player, they're just trying to combat the weaknesses of their chosen demigod. And the priests are not walking potions, they heal you every few seconds and you have to be near them. It
I'll grab it tonight when I got off work and see if anyone wants to play.

I agree with Evanescent. I'd also like to see various improvements such as clan support.
