Mike: Its just been too painful a road for Gas Powered Games to go down again... in fact, I believe there was a quote from the CEO that Demigod was the reason his kids wouldn't be able to go to college. I'm no going to go into the whole story with you, but lets just say there were some production issues, networking issues, what I believe was a severe underestimation of the balancing and bug fixing that would need to go into a "Multiplayer-Centric" game, etc etc. The long
A three second delay is not playable and shouldn't be happening. 750 ping sounds rather high unless you're on the moon. It's tough for Aussie players... probably why most of them left. The ones I play with now and then tend to have high pings but don't necessarily lag. As long as you're below 300 you should be fine. Are you spiking at all? In other words, does your lag go up and down during a game? That could mean you have bandwidth issues, not latency
Actually, I think you and I are classified as semi-retired demigod veterans who still lurk around the forums cause they lead boring lives... Or am I just speaking for myself? When you gonna start playing again bro?
I'm sorry bro. And I'm more sorry that I have to be one of those one upper pricks. Last game I played was the worst of my life... I had the most horrible things happen to me. First, I was going to kill an Oak with Rain of Ice but he blinked with Cloak of Night right out from under it and then pented me right when a snipe was coming which killed me... well, that actually might have been great skill on his part so oh well.
"I use to run queen with swift anklet, until i learned ub and le would always be faster in one way or another." This is why I tried telling you stuff you already know. Its rather silly IMO to point out how much better Erebus and Beast are as an example of why not to do something in this game.
Syn: UB and Erebus are tier 1 demigods and will always be better than Queen especially endgame... and everyone else for that matter. Oak is tier 1 as well because Shield III makes him immune to their rapery. If you want to play a game with decent players who are using LE and UB, make sure you have decent players on your team using LE or UB who can do all the things you can't and will benefit from your groundspikes the most. If not, just play LE, UB, or Oak yourself. Or
[quote who="omg_its_synn" reply="5" id="2661023"] Lifekatana's and my guide is coming soon. It really is being worked on. Lifekatana and I are talking back and forth to complete it weekly. I am excited to see some tier 1/2 players put it to use to see what happens.I'm waiting to see this truly amazing build.[/quote] Don't hold your breath buddy... if and when the mythic Lifekatana Queen Build ever shows up, I've got a funny feeling it will have a few disclaimers on its use such a
OMG-Tacoguy has returned?! Hurrah!
I said I hold my own in the lane better, not hold flags better. WotS eliminates those frustrating scenarios where I'm hiding well behind my tower, waiting for my monk to slowly recharge my health (assuming its still alive and I'm not waiting for its replacement), wondering if its safe to venture out and risk getting spit on, sniped, chained, yellow denied etc etc. I haven't played as a Blood Fire TB very much, find the concept rather boring so maybe that is a more effective way
[quote who="OMG_BlackHatHedgehog" reply="80" id="2655088"]How does your build work against a character who gets Wand of Speed? [/quote] Early game I'm the fastest cat in town cause I get boots of speed when I get currency (which is quick cause people ain't yellow denying me at the mid flag anymore and I'm actually holding my own at the lane I'm at) and level up fire aura asap. It seems extremely effective early, but yes, you and Epi are right that later game there are qui
NO! Your head is filthy with lies! I am the only one who is brilliant enough to know the true power of WotS!
Teseer: I'll be able to play tomorrow and hopefully I can get some good replays and make sure the build actually works properly. Only been able to test it out one time on some Euros... Ownage and DA in the same sentence?! "You're cra... You're crazy man. You're Crazy. I like you but, you're Crazy." Hedgie: Yup, just keep your monks if you like... I was doing just fine against a Blood Fire TB who had monk support the other night... o
I've been playing a primary fire hybrid with WotS lately... it pretty much negates the two biggest early game hassles for a Torchbearer and I'm loving it. UB uses Spit I on you... you say "thank you sir, may I have another?" Reg wants to use his snipes on you? Outstanding! Its kind of like the old Speedbearer build from before the HoL nerf... cept not as good but you can do the hit and run and recharge at level 1.
Deep Freeze has always been a brutal counter to Queen late game, that will never change. If you're not kicking enough ass from your early game advantage with Queen and WotS, you're going to get raped later on in the game when the nuking and the stunning is too much for you to handle. Make sure you prioritize speed. The trick to WotS Queen I believe would be to make sure your opponents are living in fear of you chasing them down because you can shield and use WotS when yo
[quote who="OMG_Splitshadow" reply="12" id="2652334"] Now with 250% more Judaism! [/quote] Soda came out of my nose when I read this... bastard.
IMO it's solid... try using Cosmo's Queen of Shields guide but put in 3 points of morale instead of entourage and get Siege Demolishers... the guide was written before people realized how good Demolishers were or the nerf to entourage so just adapt that and it seems like an awesome way to play now that shamblers have full life when summoned. In some circumstances WotS will be much better than Cloak for Queen if you have a BotS TB in your lane for instance... imagine Teseer with endles
Hey buddy, looks like you have the right attitude as far as letting people give you advice/critisism... crap, I can't spell criticism oh that time I got it right! Pretty good for never having gone to colledge... crap! College? Ah, there we go. Anyway, try playing with Oak, UB, or Erebus... when you make the jump from beginner games, that will serve you well. I don't personally care at all about winning, but I don't want a beginner on my team who's going to pl
[quote who="OMG_Epiphenomenon" reply="29" id="2644147"]OMG I just clicked and told my Demigod to go somewhere and then used the wand of speed, and my Demigod didn't even stop!!!!!! WOOT.f EDIT: WotS QoT? [/quote] Yeah... before if you or your ally had bramble shield in effect, WotS would be negated if it absorbed damage but whatever they did to fix the healing changed that as well. It won't help at all late game once the nukes get ridi
Ptarth: You say nothing additional was changed then state they fixed Electrocution? [e digicons]:|[/e] To those who don't think this patch was enough: Lickem. With the minion fix and the Wings of the Seraphim fix QoT is finally viable! Hurrah GPG/Stardock! I look forward to more hopefully, but this one is good enough for me.
[quote who="OMG_ZEX" reply="65" id="2640178"] Well lets just say if his speed gets nerfed I wouldn't be able to play my pure ooze beast anymore. The diversity in beasts different builds would be reduced hybrids.[/quote] Good point... However, I'm willing to let you make that sacrifice so we can get more demigod variety. [e digicons]:grin:[/e]
[quote who="OMG_ZEX" reply="61" id="2639474"] Quoting GM-MAGNUS333, reply 59 Anyway, I am totally against giving QoT 500 more mana, that will do next to nothing to increase her effective mana which is the real problem and any change to her at all will give the devs justification to 'wait and see how it plays out' before looking at her again in another year. Okey fine be the one idiot that would disagree.[/quote] He probably feels the same way about people wh
[quote who="OMG_ZEX" reply="28" id="2636363"]Okey if we are talking realistic balance changes that would require little to no coding I would Buff the base speed of Reg and DA to 6.3 Increase the base mana pool of TB and QoT by 500 The rest of the cast I would not touch.[/quote] You have a deal if we can put UB and LE at 6.0 They both have stuns, speed debuffs, UB has a passive speed increase, LE has a blink... they don't need to
[quote who="OMG_Teseer" reply="22" id="2636292"]Of every idea I've seen mod wise, the TB Balance Mod was my favorite. Well, at least part of it: Switch to Frost Form Buff: Give armor depending on level. Switch to Fire Form Buff: Give hp/s. [/quote] No need to mess with a good thing... He's right that TB is very balanced (assuming as certain dirty dog gets nerfed someday) and just cause we play with BotS doesn't mean that the form switch buffs aren't gr

Like, it wouldn't be so bad.. if there was any strategy involved whatsoever. But they are all wasted ports, wasted locks, wasted pots, wasted sigils. All fail lol. Where was I going with this?
