Heroes of Newerth - Insta-lock Scout, level Codex to 5 - Games

[QUOTE=IQ-Guldfisk;30354357]Whatever happened to warchamp having red name one day and the other just crystal?[/QUOTE] They took red name away from Jr. officers.

[QUOTE=Lone Wolf807;30354757]So you guys think the keep update will nerf carry keeper with the strength?[/QUOTE] He's obviously intended to be a really strong Ganker/semi-carry now imo.

"- All Melee heroes now all have 128 Attack Range" What does that mean?

[QUOTE=Errorproxy;30358664]"- All Melee heroes now all have 128 Attack Range" What does that mean?[/QUOTE] that means they all have the same attack range.

[QUOTE=Errorproxy;30358664]"- All Melee heroes now all have 128 Attack Range" What does that mean?[/QUOTE] Whereas currently I think there's some with like 100 and some with 150, etc.

[QUOTE=BeardyDuck;30358773]that means they all have the same attack range.[/QUOTE] No, it means that melee heroes can now hit from behind their creeps. That's pretty cool.

Ah I didn't read the keeper notes just scimmed, fuck yeah. I love keeper.

[QUOTE=Errorproxy;30359086]No, it means that melee heroes can now hit from behind their creeps. That's pretty cool.[/QUOTE] It means they all have the exact same attack range. Currently melee heroes have everything between 100-150. So some heroes got a range buff, others got a nerf.

[QUOTE=Errorproxy;30359086]No, it means that melee heroes can now hit from behind their creeps. That's pretty cool.[/QUOTE] I wouldn't count on that, very few heroes if any can hit behind creeps, and 128 is about average range. Banned how come I've never played with you?

is dampeer a good hero and how do i play him?

[QUOTE=NoShogun;30362575]is dampeer a good hero and how do i play him?[/QUOTE] Either ganker or semi-carry. Ganker needs spellshards and some sort of good mana regen. S Semi-carry needs damage and survivability.

[QUOTE=NoShogun;30362575]is dampeer a good hero and how do i play him?[/QUOTE] I think he's a lot of fun but has a weird item build. Spellshard's and Shrunken Head are your core, every time. Most of your damage is going to come from your spells. Depends on who you're going against for which item you get first. After that, straight damage. Frostburn is nice and, God willing the game lasts this long, you can turn it into a Geometer's and Frostwolf Skull.

are the stats messed up for anyone else?

How do you split the frostburn into one firebrand and one icebrand?

[QUOTE=IQ-Guldfisk;30368401]How do you split the frostburn into one firebrand and one icebrand?[/QUOTE] Put it in your stash and left click it.

[QUOTE=Rats808;30368647]Put it in your stash and left click it.[/QUOTE] You can do this with any item that didn't require a recipe.

Indeed. I freaked on my game as Behemoth earlier because I bought a scarab and guardian ring on my way back and they formed ring of the teacher, while I needed them for Blood Chalice and Ring of Sorcery. I then realized I could just take it apart in my stash and did so.

new update is out [editline]10th June 2011[/editline] won't let me log in though [editline]10th June 2011[/editline] also, i expect a lot of penises with the whole custom account icon thing

[QUOTE=Eluveitie;30368653]You can do this with any item that didn't require a recipe.[/QUOTE] That reminds me to split my Ghost Marchers as Voodoo Jester to use the punchdaggers in Codex. :eng101: But I normally buy Striders anyway, :v:

Just played a game as Nomad with Nymph and Jeriziah. There are no reason to go back to base after a certain point. We had so much sustainability.

Just bought pig and chicken courier skins, they're so cute :3.

[QUOTE=thebadboy91;30378861]Just bought pig and chicken courier skins, they're so cute :3.[/QUOTE] Are they client only or does the skin change for whoever puts it down, how does it work?

[QUOTE=Deac;30379876]Are they client only or does the skin change for whoever puts it down, how does it work?[/QUOTE] Haven't seen them in-game (yet!), but I think it's the one who BUYS the courier who has the chance to transform it aka change it to his skin of choice.

So pretty much this update was a way for S2 to put more emphasis on buying a courier and wards.

Not enough people ward.

Exactly.

I don't like the new keepers spells that much. I find the treants to be useless. And his protection got nerfed.

[QUOTE=Lone Wolf807;30381226]I don't like the new keepers spells that much. I find the treants to be useless. And his protection got nerfed.[/QUOTE] You find treants which let you jungle the Dragon Ancients at level 1 (maintaining as much or even more gold/xp as the solo mid via jungling) and Kongor easily solo at Level 7, give you basically free guaranteed perma invis rune with Q, give you free +60 Movement speed and +60 Attack Speed, and have 500 health & 25 damage for even more damage on your ult & crazy pushing potential that rivals any other pusher useless? OK then. e: they are like, incredibly ridiculous and will probably get nerfed ASAP in health. and not allow you to have 10 (15 with resto) of them at once.

i still think amun-ra is broken... every time i play support, the rest of my team doesn't bother picking any mana burning heroes or even buying nullfire. it's ridiculous how one hero can change your whole build as a carry, and if you don't get enough farm early game it's pretty hard to do enough damage for the nullfire to matter anyway.
