[OPINION] Unclean Beast Bestial Wrath in Demigod Beta Feedback Demigod Forums

Unclean Beast Bestial Wrath The Unclean Beast still does inordinate damage with this ability and even a minor attack damage item. Combined with more powerful items and the Beast`s raw attack speeds, his damage potential is a magnitude greater than what it needs to be, such that any other abilities of the character seem inconsequential and unnecessary. I would try lowering the percentage damage bonus to 100%, 150%, and finally 20

[BUG] Non-Teleport Immobility in Demigod Beta Feedback Demigod Forums

Non-Teleport Immobility Whilst in the guts of the enemy fortress area on Mine with my Torch Bearer I encountered a circumstance where after/during a particularly hectic combat my Demigod was unable to move. I could teleport with the Elven cloak and scrolls, but nothing reset or freed my character. I let him die... which returned things to normal. Perhaps with the busy circumstance I had been stuck in place by a minion, and perha

[BUG] Torch Bearer Double-Cast in Demigod Beta Feedback Demigod Forums

Torch Bearer Double-Cast I can initiate a second incidence of Rain Of Ice (or whatever its called) by designating a target that is out of range for the spell, then re-using the ability before the storm has occurred. Worked with the tier 1 ability.

Reply to Demigod beta 2 after the break and beyond in Demigod Journals Demigod Forums

Demigod is a terrifically fun action contest right now. I think we need to be careful when speaking of complicating things, particularly in regards to the item system. Introducing a myriad of item and item modification options I think will drag down & dilute the action. I would rather not indulge in a ragdoll alchemy construction puzzle when I could and should be venturing forth and utilizing my abilities to crush enemies. You`d be shifting focus from combat to item equipping. <

Impulse offers Sacred 2 for sale, digital download only. If they offered to ship out a boxed copy as with Sins and Demigod I would have ordered it immediately, especially after my experience with Amazon. Here in Canada we are forced to sit and wait for a stupid bilingual edition of the game. Part of this enforcement is the concept to Amazon.com that we are a seperate region from the rest of North America, and they therefore cannot fulfill my order of the english version that is alread

[OPINION] Rook Towers in Demigod Beta Feedback Demigod Forums

Rook Towers I like the The Rook in the new beta, even though I think a *very* top tier 1200 point Hammer Slam is still appropriate, but I find something lacking in his Towers now. It doesn`t feel right that with a finite limit on the # of Towers he can raise, that those Towers are of finite duration. I prefer the original "forever" duration - unless he raises a new one in excess of his maximum. The finite #s of Towers in existen

Giving creeps/minions some specific bonus versus specific Demigods sounds like it changes a dynamic of play - powerful Demigods might suddenly need to treat such escorted/buffed popcorn/swordfodder with more ample fear & respect.

[quote who="lprometheus" reply="16" id="1954578"] Let's definitely bear in mind that these arenas ARE artificial. That is, the gods have placed these arenas specifically so that the Demigods can vie for the favor of the gods to ascend. It's not like Supreme Commander or even Warcraft where there's this chunk of territory you're trying to conquer. The flags play right into the God's arena the all father placed items in the arena and only a ascend DG will have

[THANKS] The Glory Of Flight in Demigod Beta Feedback Demigod Forums

Thanks I don`t think anyone has thanked you yet for implementing proper flying mechanics for aerial units. Its very nice and appropriate to see the angels and demons *flying* across chasms to engage targets in their sphere of awareness. Seems to work well mechanically/balance-wise too. Nice code evolution: keep it in. Be interesting to see the Vampire Lord transform and fly in similar fashion, or perhaps some other Demigod. But

[BUG] Tower/Structure Hesitation in Demigod Beta Feedback Demigod Forums

Tower/Structure Hesitation Often after I command the Demigod to attack a proximal structure, he/she/it hesitates for about a full second or two before actually engaging the target. This is not the aforementioned inability to path to a target, it is something distinct, to the best of my observation. Supplementarily, if I command The Rook to Hammer Slam a structure which he is still hesitating to attack, his hammer often falls to

[BUG] Colossus-Class Pathing in Demigod Beta Feedback Demigod Forums

Colossus-Class Pathing The larger the Demigod or Minion, the more likely they can get stuck. This seems particularly acute with Demigods and Minions intermingling. What seems to be happening is that either entity jiggers about and winds up partially inside the other, causing both to be immobile. When one of the two is slain, that frees up the other to resume normal movement. Perhaps an inelegant solution is

Every great RTS has a counter so this is a great idea to balance the playing field.

[quote who="TheBigOne" reply="6" id="1954240"]I've thought about it again, if you really want to make it skillful there shouldn't be 8 items which gives a buff versus a specific demigod but Items which gives a temporal buff vs exactly 1 of your enemies when some conditions are met. For Example the next guy who casts a spell on you becomes your "Archenemy" and everytime he casts a spell on you he gets 500 Damage. Then there could be an "Revenge" Item which lets you deal more damage vs th

I like your Ring Of The Crucifix example. I can definitely warm up to the overall concept *IF* these items are unique and part of a completely random pool on a per play basis. If they are not, then I would definitely prefer items that bestow buffs or penalties on a general 'class' basis - by category of ability than by specific name. In that latter instance, Ring Of The Crucifix might offer protection versus the Dead and Spirits wielded by The Oak and The Vampire Lord, but not limited to them

What if all artifacts were unique? It would bring a long-term useful benefit to controlling the artifact shop flag - get the item you want or deny it to enemies. As it is you just have to make a push in that direction when you have enough gold to buy your artifact, and ignore it the rest of the

DatonKallandor, Good point with Limb Counts (!). The same applies to wielding a gazillion weapons or wearing multiple cloaks (2 cloaks max. would be fine...). Of course, some measure of allowance might need to be made concerning the exact physical nature of the Demigod, whether or not it is a standard human form. Maybe that would get complex fast? Frogboy, Demigod or entity-specific items could be problematic to balance, purchase-wise and therefore game-wise
