Questions about Exp and Gold Numbers

from Demigod Forums

Hey. I have some questions.

Firstly, anyoen know what happened to that post about unwritten numbers?  It was very usefull.  It listed all the side effects of skills and things that weren't displayed in the GUI.

Questions:

1) How much gold does each gold mine give per teammate per second?

2)
  a) I hear that if I capture the enemies portal, every single person on my team gets a full wave's worth of experience per a wave. Is this true?
  b) What about neutral portals, like in the middle of Leviathan?
  c) Is the exp calculated off of the wave that the enemy would have spawned or the wave that you spawn?  Like, waht if you've purchased giants and they haven't, do you get experience for giants?

Basic question: What is the benefit, in a 3vs3, of capturing the enemies portal?

1) 2 per 'tick' per teammate. A game tick is about .9 seconds.

2) a) You get full XP AND Gold starting with the SECOND wave, and each wave after. Each wave comes every 31 seconds, which means that you'll need at least one lock to see the benefit.

b) no, neutrals do not give this benefit.

c) the wave you spawn. If I start getting early control of portals, the first thing I do is buy priests to maximize it.

Each portal also hasa gold mine. So if you can hold of on locking the portal till after your first wave has spawned, then locking it, you will gain all the gold per tick upto when it spawns, then at least another 45 seconds of gold ticks and a wave or two of experience and gold of your creeps.

I think its the equivilant of capping there goldmine flag for a lock period or two, as well as the equivilant of heavens wrathing the creeps, whilst your creeps wear down the towers. Works well if you get early priests.

false. The gold mine that appears by the portal is actually added when a team purchases currency. If a team has a gold mine by both portal flags you know they have currency II. ;)

You can't actually capture it.

 

Edit: Hmm I appear to be wrong. Nevermind xP

I thought I heard that you only ever get the gold and experience for the base wave of creeps (minotaurs and archers) regardless of what upgrades ANYONE has purchased.
