Complete the Hero XIV

I like being able to swap between a support and DPS tank.
Repair - Restoration is a very powerful ability. Seeing that it interacts with the theme of the hero, I will let it slide for now. Actually it's weaker than Rooftrellen's Armour when you look at all the aspects of it.
Fragmentation Device - Nice use of an instant ability. The flash-bang concept is very interesting. Thankyou =)
Generator - I can see where this would get very annoying. Invulnerable to damage... I was hoping that this could be repaired :/ Well it only lasts up to 6 seconds so I didn't see the point of making it repairable
Guardhouse - No Scout Tower icon? For some reason I like this idea of blowing up (essentially an IED) this building better than the throwing of a bomb. Not this time. I much prefer the Pocket Factory model and icon to the Scout Tower

Torch - OH NO! RUN AWAY FROM THE BURNING BUILDING!

First ability is overly complicated and I do not like that I have to rip the text apart to see your hero.

Thanks for the review. I don't know what I can suggest for the fighter form but I really like the idea of being able to change roles like that. It's not a complicated concept: open the Weapons Crafting and choose your sword. Open the Shield Crafting and choose your shield. It makes him really flexible in combat and also allows him to adapt to different situations. I would like the make the the passives more interesting however. Any suggestions as to how to improve the Weapon and Shield Crafting bonuses would be great.

Honestly, the concept is not complicated. The way it is presented on your hero is complicated. EX: Troll Warlord's capability to change between ranged and melee.

Hi Beary.

[SECXIIKILLA]

Ice Crown Overlord
Glacies Icetouch

Background Story: Once a warrior instructed to clear Northrend of the Nerubians, his name was well remembered until he fell in battle, betrayed by his comrades, who were jealous of his power. When he fell his name was forever forgotten, forsaken in the Ice Crown. His physical being was destroyed, but his soul managed to find a way to cope with the extreme cold of the region. Over hundreds of years he built up the power to create his own form, to survive. Believed to be the first mercenary hired by the Lich King because of his proximity to him, he promises to destroy all that goes against the Scourge and its minions. He can summon his fellow Northrend minions to destroy his enemies. His powers can manipulate giant pieces of ice to push enemies back. Some say that he can create gigantic icebergs that fall from the sky. Extending his power, he can make rise humongous icicles from the earth to blow his enemies back. Trapping his enemies with the ice in his hands, this creature is a formidable opponent. Everything and all will fall to Glacies Icetouch's wake.

I will review your hero in a bit.

[Captain Planet]

I've reformatted the Change Form section so hopefully it's easier to read/understand.

Review for God of Death - Melvis Cain, The Last

Godsent - The forced synergy for this ability is interesting. The critical strike on command is nothing new, but to stack additional critical strike damage is interesting.
Resonant Edge - 32% is a high number, but the concept is easy to understand. The weapon absorbs a portion of damage. If Godsent is activated, that stored damage that was absorbed is unleashed upon attack. Very nice.
Hallowed Shield - The only problem with this ability is that the gain is much much better than the lose. Losing base armor is not very detrimental if the player knows how to play the hero. So for them to take advantage of this ability is very easy to see. The percentages bother me.
Insolence - Please clarify that the duration on the skills table is the duration of the buff placed. The forced synergy with Godsent does not seem to fit too well.
Blood Feud - If I had to pick an ultimate for this hero it would be this ability. One of my favorite ability-styles. Gladiator!!! Forced-synergy with Godsent grants 100% lifesteal on a critical strike! That is too much -_-

Overall - This hero is very powerful, it really is a GoD!!! I can honestly say, that there is so much forced-synergy with that one ability, but the abilities themselves are just as strong by themselves. Which brings the question, "Is the forced-synergy really needed?" It does tie in very well with the hero. The numbers themselves need to be tweaked and possibly reduced. Terrifying concept.

Well, the way I see it, this is kind of like an active Bristleback. Bristle takes 40% reduced damage from his back, and that's equivalent to 66% EHP [100/60 = 1.66] from the back. 33% EHP from the sides. This ability only gives you 40% EHP [as compared to 66%] and for a very limited duration. Also, you're taking 33% more damage from spells than you would have without this ability activated [100/75 = 1.33]. So basically, the only major use of this skill is tanking and returning more damage via the first skill [you see, removing resistance allows you to collect more energy in the weapon]. Note also that skills can be leveled at 1/4/7/10/13 so it takes a while to get effective. Perhaps I should change it to 32% bonus HP for 4/5/6/7/8 seconds, or 20/24/28/32/36 percent bonus for 6/6/7/7/8 seconds?

Insolence - Please clarify that the duration on the skills table is the duration of the buff placed. The forced synergy with Godsent does not seem to fit too well.

Alright, I'll add the clarification. The synergy with Godsent is supposed to be his major tank skill forcing people to attack him, but I suppose it does not fit. I really need an idea for this skill.

Blood Feud - If I had to pick an ultimate for this hero it would be this ability. One of my favorite ability-styles. Gladiator!!! Forced-synergy with Godsent grants 100% lifesteal on a critical strike! That is too much -_-

My bad, I'll reduce the critical lifesteal. It was originally a pure damage in the forum version of the hero. I'd say 50% works?

Overall - This hero is very powerful, it really is a GoD!!! I can honestly say, that there is so much forced-synergy with that one ability, but the abilities themselves are just as strong by themselves. Which brings the question, "Is the forced-synergy really needed?" It does tie in very well with the hero. The numbers themselves need to be tweaked and possibly reduced. Terrifying concept.

Perhaps I need to nerf a few numbers? The dynamic synergy actually arises from the fact that the original version of this hero had Godsent as a built-in skill instead of as a leveled skill. I know it looks a bit strange to have forced synergy with only one skill, but I think with the tweaking of certain aspects, this should be fine. For example, perhaps Godsent should be leveled differently? Like, 1/3/5/7/9 unlike the others which go 1/4/7/10/13? Or 1/6/11/16/21 unlike the others, which makes this a lategame ability?

Thanks a lot for the review, I'll work on the numbers and flaws.

[Kira`]

guys guys, I just finished my entry

mind to review anyone?? I'll give review as return

here's my link: Herib'dag, Chaos Marauder

[Nevfigalo]

1. Herib'dag Chaos Marauder
Stats - Well, I forgot that some spells have life cost instead mana cost, but he can't still use Rage at level one without items.

Cutthroat - targeting unit, casting range N/A. It is rather instant. AoE is too big (how he can swing his blade so far?)

Bite - is charging forward gives additional ms?. It is 4s movement disable at level 1.

Torch - Compared to other Skills it is not worthy levelling. Reduced CD, but mana cost is constant 45, +10as and 5 movement speed per level. Ofc it is giving him pushing and farming powers. It is ok.

Lust - Is it 140 damage, 10 seconds pseudo-track? Scalling is even worse than Torch's one. -5 health cost, +25 casting range, +10 damage.

Lust will make your target bleeding, so you can use the blood trail to semi-warding in this case.

Semi-warding?

RAGE - lvl 2 Bite-Rage combo seems nice. Is it possible to suicide? The Vengeance buff seems epic (the wave of fire)

It seems like you are forcing players to level up Bite, Cutthroat and Rage. Bite is enough to make a successful gank, Cutthroat is useful in teamfights, Torch will destroy every tower, Rage as a source of damage and fun, again Bite for positioning. Everything seems nice expect Lust, it is only creating bloodpath with no vision, has no more side-effects. Maybe add "disable" hp regeneration?
