Fireball is  1sec cast.

everytyhing else hyperbole.

Dark has spit and bite!!! HAH!

well im not gonna say that what the op said is correct, but i will say there seems to be some kind of imbalance when it comes to dark vs light. i only say this because dark only has won 1 pantheon since release, now it was usually pretty close every time but since the erebus nerf its hasnt been. and im afraid to think what would happen if all the nerf ub threads got their way as well. erebus went from a 4th ranked dg to jus above the support dg's personally i dont think the nerf was needed just ppl needed more time to learn how to deal with it and know when to run. the mentality that this game is a 1v1 game is what got erebus nerfed, ittbe like nerfing sednas pounce, bite is erebus only real dmg move bat swarm is way to costly to use as a dmging move consistently. anyway im going on a rant here thanks for reading.

tl:dr, based on pantheon stats (more facts that what whiners and theorycrafters have) there seems to be some kind of imbalance between light and dark.

@LionHeart: Honestly, Pantheon stats are so messed up right now-- most people will shrug them off as being totally irrelevent.

Someone is discussing balance!  Here comes the graphs!  Make sure you check em before you make your assertions on who has what, you may be surprised.

Armor

max health

health regen.

TB is pretty obviously the glass canon of the bunch in terms of max health armor and health regen, but it's worth noting that his armor DOES catch up a bit at the upper levels due to his higher gain per level.

Rook, actually starts off with the SECOND lowest armor, beating our much maligned erebus by a small margin for the first 2 levels, but rapidly falls behind the pack

Note that these are only base level stats, and some demigods have the ability to increase their stats well above what's listed through spending their XP wisely

TheTrav those graphs are only a small portion of a the demigod's stats and they show a warped impression of a demigod. They help to point out what items a demigod should get to cover there weakness but without looking at the whole picture it isn't fair to the demigods at the bottom of those graphs.

The fact that people have complained about both the light and dark sides being OP just provides more evidence that the game is in fact mostly balanced imo.

i agree to that point except for the suicide oak. i don't think that would be worth it unless it'd end the game victoriously, that is.

but for spit i actually think it is very good against buildings, actually far too good in my oppinion...I'd rather like it not work at all against buildings... but what about tb? freeze + circle of fire works well

but ffs who cares about pantheon anyway?

Demigod is balanced for conquest and conquest only.  The other modes are pretty much jokes.  I don't know why they show up in Pantheon and Skirmish....

Yeah, been there, done that.  We were getting creamed and I was Oak.  Didn't see much to lose, so I added the Last Stand ability at first opportunity to do suicide runs.  Guess what - once the other team saw that they had two players hunt me down and kill me before I even got close.  Since they buffed up for the occasion, I couldn't even whap them back, so I spent my time taking giants out - better that then nothing.

Oak does have Shield, but only for 1 person - and Oak get's Life Steal for everyone in range.   It is not which is better, but how they play together.   Rook places towers and Oak puts Death Wards next to them, the spirits that are summoned track fleeing demigods for Regulus to take out --- simple.

However, I've seen Lord Erebus and the Torch Bearer also working as a team - and when that happens - you just ain't got no hope (at least an Oak and just about anybody else).  The Torch Bearer can do Circle of Flame around flags, particularly in the early game and level quite easily.
