[BALANCE] Armor vs. Attack Power

November 6, 2008 9:25:46 PM from Demigod ForumsDemigod Forums

Recently, I've played a game where I went up against an Unclean Beast who could deal 1500 Damage per hit due to Gloves and Artifacts. In order to counter this, I filled my inventory with lots of expensive and artifact Armor, including All Father Ring. In the end, I had 9000 armor, but I could not stop him from defeating me. In a one versus one stand off, the high damage Demigod always came out in the end, having only reduced his 1500dmg to 500 (Which is still very high). Clearly, there needs to be some more balance between how Armor protects against Attack Power.

Orlean, I pm'ed you a friend request with additional details.  the 1500 was with the UB +300% attack ability.

And dmg was reduced to 389-430.  Without the ability on I did 89-119dmg.

Which still doesnt seem right. I've just out of the corner of my eye watched an AI UB 2 shot an AI. Then it happens to me.

Sadly it only happened when I was busy with...other things. I've only played for like 30 minutes, but man he seems to suddenly hit HARD.

He is overpowered for sure.  New Items, plus his ability make him 1 or  shot most people in mid game.

I agree, after playing a few more games it is too noticeable to be denied.  UB is so overpowered it isn't funny.  I do not look forward to the exploit that may be used, but I do look forward to using them.  Well, at least once.  Wanna play OrleanKnight?

Honestly, it's anyone that gets the Unmaker. It's just...really easy to stack up on dmg/atk speed.

Yes but when you combine everything, I can do 5800-6200 dmg and 8000+dmg to buildings.  The stronghold drops like nothing.

Yeah. I just played on Mine. I got to around 7,000 dmg and had the stealth cloak. By the time I got all the items I needed, we got past their first line of towers.

Stealth cloak -> walk to Stronghold -> Pop Beastal Wrath and use the Unmaker and suddenly the game is over.

(Towers were not firing at me while I was cloaked, I thought the Towers of Light could see Cloak. I'll check again later)

Tower of light cannot see cloaked demigods in this version.  I tested the same thing last night.  If they are supposed to see us, then that is also a bug.
