[COSMETIC] Hex, Just a minor fix

CrYn00b · 08-27-2009, 10:10 AM

Well.. after watching the ESWC 2008 Grand Finals, I noticed that flying heroes (like Puck/Jakiro) look really odd, when they get hexed. They stay a normal chicken, which can, for some reason or another, ~~fly~~ run in the air.

Here you can see how a running-in-the-air-Puck looks like:

There's a nice model, which can be used for all those floating heroes, which is the following:

and for Ground units

Guinsoo's Scythe of Vyse's Tooltip:

"Guinsoo's flaming staff that he uses to turn people into sheep on a whim."

Well, this change makes more sense and is also nice looking. Doesn't increase mapsize and is easy to implement. Thanks in advance.

qlq · 08-27-2009, 03:25 PM

kanzakill · 08-27-2009, 03:30 PM

A no-brainer

do I need to say more?

Just implement it already

Lycan · 08-27-2009, 03:41 PM

Obvious is obvious look neat, however viper and puck are ground units... it needs some extra coding iirc.

MurazorOFAngmar · 08-27-2009, 05:06 PM

T- up for sure

CrYn00b · 08-27-2009, 10:51 PM

Coding is no problem at all.. all people whine about coding.. Why should I post uncodeable things? o.o

Chicken in the air lol. T-up for all of Cry's excellent suggestion.

The Observer · 08-29-2009, 03:10 AM

lol so what if viper and puck are land units? just make something like

When puck is hexed = turns into flying sheep.

simple as that.

Ice will have to change it from the normal ability into channel while the real hex ability is cast by a dummy (to differentiate from floating heroes). Well however there are no disadvantages about this except a very small performance need.
--> t-up

noerK · 09-06-2009, 01:33 AM

t-up on this while the suggestion is meant for guinsoos.

ps: my felboar sugg "rip-off" was no real rip.... i said, that it was already suggested on DA, but i dont know the link. I just resuggested it, cause i thought it was a nice suggestion.
if you post the link i will add it to the startpost-- instantly^^!

I didn't want to suggest this as a separate thread, just wanted to brainstorm it here.

How about adding a noticeable animation for Hex? Something transformical. LIke Surge animation. Often when people with below average eyesight hex, they tend to NOT see where the hexed unit is.

Or, in team fights, it is hard to FF on a hexed unit since it is hard to see. Something like Surge animation which is easily noticeable but not flashy will direct allies to FF the hexed unit or at least know where that unit is.
