A couple of Demigod questions

1) corrent other then favor items, once there fixed.

2) you don't controll anything other they your demi unless your a general and then only a select few.  Its really not an RTS in the traditional sence.

3) Its based on experiance points, but no one has a clue how those work.  IE at one point someone who played 1 game was in 5th place.  So probably broken

Yes you sound like a newbie but we were all there once.

To eleberate a little further,

Basically depending on how well you do, you earn Favor Points at the end of the match (can be seen at the end of match results) there is currently a glitch in the game that fails to keep track of earned favor points at this time. (They are fixing it though) and those points can be used to purchase Favor Items. Favor Items stay with you from game to game, other items and exp and skills and such reset from game to game.

Its more or less an RPG with some RTS aspects. Generals (the Demigods you can select on the RIGHT side of the selection screen) can summon some units in additon to themselves that you can Micro. Assassins (Demigods on the, you guessed it! left side ) can only control themselves. So with that being said, you need to level up before tackling those pesky towers, or following an enemy demigod into their base. (Level up by killing those creeps; Creeps are NPC characters like the Minotaur, and Archer... Demons?)

The web site stats are broken, basically the intense connection issues that plague online play have been the main focus for debugging and correcting. Once that connection stuff gets sorted out, we should, and most likely will see a change on the rest of this stuff.

Hope that helps, have fun online!

Favor works fine if you just do Singleplayer though!

3 no idea dont pay attention to that

On your difficulty with towers, here's a few pointers:

1 - Your early game goal is to level up your demigod and capture flags.  Towers are goign to kill you, stay away from them.  You can level up by either capturing flags, or killing demigods, but the most common way of leveling up is simply to be near creeps when they die (creeps are the little guys who spawn in regular waves and are completetly controlled by the AI)

2 - If you do 20% of damage to a creep you will get an extremely small amount of gold when that creep dies.  This is separate to the Experience gain and you don't need to hang around after you've done that damage.  Therefore the best way to maximise income is to give as many creeps a small tap as you can before they die, Ideally be around when they die as well so you get experience as well.

3 - Once you hit level 4 or 5 start trying to kill enemy demigods, that'll give you TONS of gold and experience.  It's best done with friends as 1v1 most of the demigods are a fairly even/risky fight for a new player.

4 - Once you hit level 10-15 you should be capable of smashing down towers.  They'll still be a moderate threat but you can go after them.  Once you're near level 20 they'll be largely innefective against you.

This is an extremely rough guide that'll get you through an easy or normal tourneyament, play around with that to get a feel for it then go online and prepare to be beaten a whole lot but learn a whole lot at the same time

there is loads of tips in there  they should help u

Since you have played Wc3. Just imagine you are in control of ONE of the heroes, and everything else is controlled by the AI.  That is essentially what it is, you are controlling one hero and get to level him up, gear him up etc - you don't get to control minions other than from your spells or items.

Regarding the tower issues, towers have a certain range so you shouldn't have been attacked by a tower outside its attack range. If you were struck by lightning or something then this is something else.

There's a visual effect that makes it look like towers are chaining up from miles away to deal damage to you.  From what I've read and how it appears to play this is nothing but an effect.  You will take damage that depends on how many towers are in range of you

No the chained tower definatly do more damage chained.  Its not double for 2 or anything but a single tower hits for ~200 chained I've seen in the 400's when almost every tower is linked.

Yeah but this only happens if there is a tower close enough to attack you anyway.  It is a shame it's just visual effect, could have been a cool mechanic for the rook.
