This trend will continue, on a god by god basis, until everyone is back to where we started except with less damage output.  And then we'll start all over again.

I CAN'T WAIT! 

/does not play Erebus or Rook

Rook towers are underpowered. I say buff them

It really depends on the map for Rook.  On a big map Rooks towers are pretty bad actually.  On a map like Crucible there's no stopping Rook.

in a map like crudible while he is alone beating a rook is a peace of cake, sure he can mantain control over the central lane, but if he moves to try to get the 2 critical flags south of th map he is dead. Rook on prison is good, not unstopable, good.

Now i dont want to see towers nerfed if theres one thing rook needs is a little more surviability, some more armor or health, but even know rook is balanced, And yes like everybody else said, they are going to start doing the same they did with erebus to all other chars, its up to GPG to listen but im pretty sure its going to happen all over again, my next guess was sedna or QoT though.

I get absolutely raped sometimes on Crucible using my Rook tower build. Vs a Erebus and a Unclean Beast I have usually gottne whomped hard both times by that pair and even called a "less then decent" player by someone on the opposing team cus they raped us so hard.

So no, Rook is not unstoppable on Crucible. But yes he can be tough on that map.

The only problem with Rook is that there is no viable way to kill them unless you are Regulus...but if you are Regulus, you will never have to kill towers in the pantheon mode . Tower spam is pretty weak on the large maps but way too strong on something like Crucible. Over all it's fine, but the curve needs to be flattened.

I completely agree.

Ugh... balance patch 2 = increased mana cost on towers or cooldown for Rook... and then who is the next character that gets nerfed?  Wahh... regulus can snipe me and I die... WAHHH.  I don't think the rook is OP at all.  Let's give it a little more time for the community to get more skilled and get more games in.  Run the numbers on win rate for Rook/Erebus... then make changes if one appears to have a consistent advantage over other Demigods... Sounds reasonable, right?  I'm just surprized GPG released the Erebus change already.  Was he really that OP?

I don't understand how Rook is OP... granted I am not a Rook player so I do not know the ends and outs of him but, I have played a lot of games versing a Rook, and he is usually not a big deal. He is usually confined to his own little area while I'm wailing on the other side of the map as Reg... pounding on the towers and paving the way for a victory. I hardly even pay attention to Rook, I barely see him as a threat... atleast when I'm Reg.

rooks towers needed a nerf before erb, but it kinda sux cuz there isnt much of another way to play rook effectivley...

erebus could have used a little nerf.   

as someone else said QoT could probably use a slight passive buff. 

There are a lot of under-used skills, particularly for the generals, that could use some love.  The QoT is a case in point.  She has her brambles and spikes, and everything else is mediocre at best.  If her less useful skills got buffed, I think it would benefit her and the entire game.

As I said, I think Erebus needs some buff to his secondary skills, particularly his coven upgrades and perhaps his mist form.  Give him more ways to play than just swarm/bite.  While I do think the bite nerf was justified, I do think Erebus needs help in other departments to balance him out.

That said, I think Regulus' mines are currently the biggest balance issue presently.  As has been noted, they're currently being used as hand grenades.  Presently I think snipe is fine, although as some have pointed out a 5v5 all Regulus team with good coordination might be a bit over the top.  Gotta wait and see if that's an issue, but with how few 5v5's actually got off the ground prior to the recent connectivity patch it's way too early to make any conclusions there.

I love rook towers, but then Ive had people ignore my towers completely and just run in and double me, towers help with control, but they dont add huge dmg. Also considering the rest of rooks abilities are timed I think he needs the towers... like he has passive extra tower dmg, his tower erections , and then his slam and stun are all timed and needed to be aimed on the money to really do it, not saying its hard to aim, but can be a pain .

I think towers rape, but it depends on the character and yes the map. Bigger maps you can avoid rook, smaller maps your forced to face him which sucks for some of the melee demigods, but TB can be a slaughter of rook towers lol. Any TB builds will rape towers which causes huge skill point waste for rook. Not a lot of TBs out there though, somewhat a shame.

You'd still need to cap flags and level up, so those Regulii would need to move out on to the lanes.  The portals are very vulnerable on most 5v5 maps, so you could conceivably lose to an early game push if you just camped in base, even if you were successfully racking up kills.  I agree with you about the potential for Oak, although lots of other demigods have great moves that would complement this nicely.  That's what makes me think that a concentrated snipe may just be an "obvious" combo, and that it's one of many very powerful strategies that become available in a 5v5 scenario.  Until I actually get a lot of 5v5 experience it's simply too early to say.
