It is definately too high atm (or it can reach crazy high).Just had a game and did nothing special, and managed to get 8khp. Now that combined with his armour, makes him literally impossible to kill. I did get full on my stat bonuses and was level 18, but its still too high. So basically:1. Rook's HP needs to be nerfed late game so it cant reach crazy figures. I am thinking 1~2k minus HP for now (late game) till we can test more. How he recieves this hp nerf late game - maybe reduce rates of hp growth after level 10 or something.2. Rook's MAX HP needs a nerf. Make it 7k or something so he is not actually impossible to kill. Max stats could be applied imo across the other DG's, but for now, lets stick to Rook and his max hp. I havent even started to talk about what happens when you have a rook with 8k hp playing with a sedna or QoT (Bramble and Heal..)

The problems comes from the fixed value of many important skills vs the progressive value of HP/armor/raw DPS.
End game the big burst combos (shatter/firbeall/snipe/pounce/bite, etc) aren't that menacing for a rook.
At the moment, the warp stone tends to nullify what's supposed to be rook greatest weakness, speed. Without it, and some toned down damage output at latest level, he should be more balanced.
i agree rook's hp are just too much. Even without armor it has too many hp and if we add armor then skills start to become useless because of insane health of rook and other demigods with armor. Thats why i proposed max stats at that topic to make each demigod keep his play style and dont make skills useless in late game. If a game reaches very late game it is becoming a point-click-and only attack because dmg skills dont do as much dmg as normal dmg because of super dmg/armor health/mana/evasion equipment. So we need max stats!
If we want GPG/StarDock making these changes we cant just make a post with one sentence saying, "only thing that stands out is Rooks hp at level 20". Need to give them specific figures/changes that are needed and then they can do it.
