I wouldn't mind seeing the gold for AI deaths cut in half or more. Nothing is more worthless than when your partner drops and is replaced with an AI. The team I was up against decided to attack only the AI. By the end of the match, I was 5-2 and the AI was 0-13. The other human players would not engage me unless it was 2vs1.
There is one UB AI that is completely worthless. He will do one of the following 1) sits behind the towers for minutes at a time. 2) Doesn't cap the flags all the way. Just to nuetral 3) Is an ooze build that doesn't buy regen gear. Runs all the way back to cit with ooze on (Reg got soo many sniper kills on him it was ridiculous.
[quote]I dislike wyrmskin, my 10% slow is enough imo-- never really felt like I couldn't catch anyone. The armor is 3K and the cloak is 10K and I see what you're saying with Ashkandor.. but really you need some sort of mana regen to keep up vengeance with a fast attack rate. Do you just not get vengeance and rely on Nature's reckoning? How do you push waves of creeps? It seems like the proc is fairly low, and according to the text it doesn't hit the primary target does it? I've never tried it
It seems to me like the pathfinding on a UB is worse since the latest patch. 1) He seems to run into everything around corners in cataract and leviathan 2) If you click on a spot far away, he won't move. 3) I'm in melee with another demigod. If he starts retreating the UB with swipe at a creep, do a 360, and start chasing 4) If I'm chasing a demigod through creeps, my UB will also stop to take a swip
Maybe it has always been this way but I have problems foul grasping a shielded Oak. He hits the shield and then I fould grasp. I'm still stuck in the animation, gaining health, as he is still hitting me. Other times he just runs away while I'm still stuck in the animation.
I had the same problems with UB and stun not firing off. If I'm chasing a demi and he runs through creeps, my UB will sometimes stop and swipe at a creep, do a 360 and then continue to chase ( I think it continues to chase but not sure since I'm clicking like mad on the demi)

The 4th person doesn't connect so after a while you cancel. However, if you match again, the same person who didn't connect before now connects with no problems.
[quote who="PurplePaladin" reply="10" id="2237567"]How about Regulas and ???. My friend; who is still noobish, loves Regulus; won't play anything else, but, being noobish, he always ends up at the front lines. He always wants me to play Sedna so I can keep healing him (ya, I keep telling him to RUN), but she can't do much else after she heals. I was thinking TB; maybe he can freeze and slow everything as to keep them away from "Noobulus". [/quote] Actually, with
[quote who="Fred_Bonaparte" reply="1" id="2238405"]Since the stat system is not reliable you can't know if the problem is coming from the stats or from something else [/quote] If we were to say that it was a 1:1 ratio on the stat system screw up, what else could have been the cause. Who knows, maybe dark side was borked more than lightside
How or why did the forces of light win but such a large number (roughly 150,000)? Did either side benefit more from the stats problem? or Did the forces of light find the right builds? or TBs skills not scaling well or QoT being UP? or Are the forces of light OP? or Were there more experienced players on the light side? In your opinion, why do you think the forces of light won by such a large margin
[quote]First of all Im not really saying the UB himself is OP. He isnt, and thats why early-mid game he is fine. Its just the fact that he cant stack so much Armour items and more then any ther Demigod because he doesnt need any mana to deal out very high DPS.[/quote] Blade of the serpent -- works wonders UB is in a no win situation. If he goes the spit route, he is classified as OP because of the spit. If he goes with ooze then he is OP because of the HP stacking. IMO

Ugh, not another demigod... please Erebus was the first demgod to be adjusted. People were happy for a week and then the "mist is OP" threads started.

[quote]What I don't seem to understand is... how all of you just meet ONE guy who successfully carries his team in such a manner, and start to cry foul. You don't try it yourself, you don't try making a counter. You just go on the forums and cry your eyes out demanding a fix.[/quote] So, if this is above your understanding, then why comment on it? From your repsonses, I know you have never fought an experienced player who has used this exploit.

I played a 3vs3 game last week and won. Dark gained alomst 300 points while the light side gained only 30. I checked my stats a couple days later and noticed it recorded almost the exact opposite. It said the game lasted 30 minutes. The light side got 300 points and the dark side lost with 0 points. I am getting tired of pantheon because of the stats and the victory conditions. Some nights I play the same victory conditions or maps 3-4 games in a row.
[quote who="nobalkain" reply="25" id="2228158"] I think the ability to fix/buy destoryed towers would be a nice addition. [/quote] good idea
How about these: 1) Lane control. Do not upgrade armor on creeps and stand just behind the creep fights. Absorb the exp and scare off any oncoming Regs. If you stand behind the creeps, chances are the enemy creeps will kill yours and move on to you. Thus, no ally creeps moving towards the enemy base. If it is a sniping/mine regulus, do not upgrade priests unless you have to. 2) Flag lock. Lock the gold and artifact flag. Without creep money, they will build slowly p
I think its new players hitting the "fight" button instead of picking a demigod/side first. At least that is what the dark rook said when I asked. Pantheon
[quote]YOU on the other hand don't see the drawbacks because you don't play that way. You only notice the times where this tactic works. And like everyone here that shouts IMBA, OP or whatever, you probably didn'tbother to test your observations in a game to see for yourself how powerful this strategy is. I hope that unlike Elvisman2001 you don't behave like a spoiled brat and refuse multiplayer just because you can't cope against strategies that seem unfair. [/quote]</p
well, I just got done playing a 2vs2 (pantheon). It was me (UB) and another Ub against Sedna and an Oak. About 5 minutes into the game, the Oak player had 5 or 5+ of each minion. By the end of the game, he had 5 bishops, 5 high kings, 5 siege demolishers, and about 10 spirits. I hope this is fixed before it gets totally out of hand.
A Regulus (AF) build does not need to acquire any mana items (BotS). A regulus who doesn't use AF can level quite a lot slower (mine mana requirements vs AF auto attack) A snipe Reg should contribute more to cit upgrades than an auto attack build. Some snipes are not needed but taken anyway.
As a Reg player who has recently joined the darkness side, I can give you some tips. 1) Way too many people buy priests too early. Regulus will power lvl with mines 2) Match is lasting too long. Always attack towers when you can and push their defenses back 3) As a UB, focus on HP items with HP regen. Focus on skills that increase attack speed and slowing your enemy. 4) With OOZE, the attack speed of the regulus will slow by 60%. You can't stop the c
Played a Pantheon game lastnight (Brothers, dominate). It was supposed to be 3vs3 but one of each side disconnected upon loading. The computer AI (Oak) went 4-7 but our AI (TB) went 0-10. Our TB AI would fly right past the demigod fights only to attack the creeps. The Oak AI capped flags on dominate but the TB AI did not.
[quote]Quoting Ravyn74, reply 13 I always take Blades of the serpent as my favour item. Next, I purchase the scailed mail, gauntlets of Brutality, and a small potion. AF along with BotS means I never have to buy a mana potion. Thanks, I will try your tips. Though in my experience, a small health potion is never enough to negate the spit.[/quote] Sorry, I meant at the start of the game you only have enough money for one small health potion.
