Erebus Questions

from Demigod Forums

I've been doing a little thinking about erebus builds and have a few questions

1 - Has anyone tried holding off on low level upgrades so that you can unlock multiple things when you hit the level requirement (I normally hate having to chose between regen and bigger pet swarm)

2 - Does mist form affect buildings?  Does stormbringers 10% mana jump work from mist form?  Can this be used to destroy citadels with impunity?

1 - Going halfway minions is likely not a good idea. Either full or none and if you go full minion, you have to push hard at level 1-10, killing alot of structures, so your creeps can roll through in the game after level 10.

2 - AFAIK, it doesn't

Usually I get bite, more minions, better minions (can't remember the name of these two skills), bite, bat swarm, health regen. Holding off on one of the minion upgrades so you can get bat swarm and health regen at the same time is actually an interesting idea. That said, I've fallen in love with the rolly polly guys, so I don't know how much stronger it would be.

You'd basically be trading a bit of their health and a conversion aura for quicker access to higher level powers (bat swarm and regen at the same time).

I guess I'm not sure how important the health upgrades on the rolly poly's are, once I get bat swarm I tend to use it on the creep waves a lot which refreshes your minion pool pretty quickly

 2- i am glad you can't, being able to mist the citadel with a mana regen item would totally break the gameplay.

1- edit: tested it, in fact it works fine :blush: . That will allow funny builds

For number one, I always wait until the skills I want are available. I end up with extra skill points, but it means I can finish my build faster, and be deadlier that much faster. It's worth the wait, because you can save your points for the skills that matter most, instead of spending them on random skills for the sake of using your skill points when you get them.
