Summon Corvus

Hero Story

The magics of the arcane have been taled to be the most powerful manifestation of prowess in the existence of humanity. Acclaimed dangerous by the great gods to whom ever co-existed with its deadly uncontrollable power, they prohibited the use of the arcane to those who only proved their worth. It was then when Corvus, knowledgeable of all surroundings, was able to cohort the magical essence and administered its use to the greater good. The now-proclaimed Celestial Sage, Corvus constrains his allies for his beneficiary, manipulating arcane in reasons its entity cannot fathom. The battle of the admirable and malevolent shall yield, as the prophecy states, "a sage shall come".(credits to king_james)

- ULTIMATE

concept suggested by chadpiety123, i just changed some things

Psi Wave (Active, single target)
Theme: Manipulation
Role: Nuke

Description

Manipulates mass in order to inflict total chaos upon target's energy, Summons a Psi wave, that will chase and orbit around enemies, Unleashing mighty Psi waves to mana burn and damage. Psi Wave's power depends on Corvus' max mana.

Level 1 - Waves have 200 AoE and deal 9% of Corvus' max mana.
Level 2 - Waves have 200 AoE and deal 12% of Corvus' max mana.
Level 3 - Waves have 200 AoE and deal 15% of Corvus' max mana.

Explanation
Summons a orb on targeted spot. This orb will chase the enemy with the less mana %. If there's no one around with higher mana it will keep attack around the same enemy and unleash the psiwaves. If an enemy with less mana pops up the orb will move to the next target, however the previous target might still get hit as the shockwaves have an AoE. If the hero chased is killed it moves to the next hero with lowest mana.

Sphere will move at 522 ms. It will chase units that have less mana %.

This is like my the concept of my 1st ulti,

Deals magical damage

Max of 4/5/6 bounces when released, One unit can only be hit twice.

Cooldown: 35
Mana Cost:10/12/14% of Corvus' Max mana
Cast Range: 700

[+] PROS
• Primary source of damage.
• Low Cooldown
• Good Synergy with other skills
• Low Manacost at early game
• High Manacost at late game, but at the same time, a con

[-] CONS
• Not very effective early game
• High Manacost at late game, but at the same time, a pro

__________________________________________________

SKILL EXPLANATION

Volatile Reaction

His 1st spell that should be casted, manacost is 10% of current mana, deals damage according to 200% of consumed mana. It has high manacost, a both pro and a con. Hence, weak at late game, can dominate at late game. Also adds a 1 second stun whenever 100/100/75/75 mana is consumed. max of 3 second stun

Mutual Constrain

Useful for supporting ally. Links Corvus with an ally, whenever that ally casts his next spell, Corvus will recover mana according to the manacost of the spell casted. Vice Versa for the Linked unit. Whenever Corvus casts a spell linked unit will recover mana according to the manacost of the spell casted. In case linked unit is an enemy, he will be manaburned according to the mana he should gain, instead of gaining mana.

Shortly: whenever the linked unit casted a spell, Corvus will gain mana. whenever Corvus casted a spell, linked unit will gain mana.

Q: What happen if enemy linked unit casted a spell?

Nothing.

Arcane Disruption

Aoe speed boost/slow. When enemies under this aura has only 21% of their max mana, they will be slowed. When allies have 60% above of mana, they will gain speedboost. Similar to Bloodseeker skill, but i think it will synergize better.

Psi Wave

Primary Source of damage. the waves deals manaburn(ofc, w/ damage) according to 10/12/14% of Corvus' max mana. It will prioritize units with lesser mana.

__________________________________________________

SKILL SYNERGY

Mutual Constrain + Volatile Reaction

Cast Mutual Constrain to your ally, then Cast Volatile Reaction, high damage+stun at late game + mana replenish of allied units. Mutual Constrain casted on enemy+volatile = damage stun+mana burn. Ouch

Mutual Constrain + Psi Wave

Psi Wave has the potential to use high manacosts at late game meaning the more your allies will gain.

Volatile Recation + Psi Wave

Your killing combo

Mutual Constrain + Volatile Reaction + Psi Wave

Support+Kill combo, important for a clash

ETC...

__________________________________________________

HERO SYNERGY

your ulti + his ulti = fast kill

]

See a manaless team.

Your passive + his passive will satisfy your team's mana and giving you a speed boost. Ezalor also gives mana.

Mutual Constrain helps heavy casters a lot, specifically their high manacost skills, also the same time helps Corvus' a lot

ETC

hmm... the ultimate support for Anti-Mage... works well with nerub as well...

question abt third skill, do you gain mana from mana burns? other than that, it is quite negligable to have a 5% increment in mana gain because most spells do not comsume much mana.

overall: too much manaburn, you need a skill that manipulates on the lost of mana on that target (something like anti-mage's ulti)

suggestion: get a stun skill as a normal skill that stuns based on amount of mana lost (to keep up with support type)

Level 1 - 1 second stun per 200 mana lost, 100 mana burn per 150 mana lost
Level 2 - 1 second stun per 150 mana lost, 100 mana burn per 200 mana lost
Level 3 - 1 second stun per 100 mana lost, 100 mana burn per 100 mana lost
Level 4 - 1 second stun per 75 mana lost, 100 mana burn per 75 mana lost

uh oh, number error.

i say though, its better if it is a single target spell.

chadpiety123 · 10-30-2009, 09:24 AM

Your first ability is uncodeable or just plain impractical
and focusing all your ability into burning mana is not really the way to go.
In fact, if you remember Anub'arak, he was permabanned for that very ability.

btw do you think it is better to remake 1st skill and retain effect of ulti? is it ok?

Elements- · 10-30-2009, 09:51 AM

Your skills are a bit of unoriginality.Skill 1: Nether Ward but manaburn effect.Skill 2: Mana Leak?Skill 3:Essence Aura.

Overall Skill 4 is only the good skill.No need to change the ultimate just the 3 skills.

Review and suggestion as requested

Theme - I don't get a link between gravity and mana burns.
Story - N/A
Icons - later, my pc can't display any pic for now.
Synergy - too powerful synergy between skills, needs nerf.

Skill1
- Can you explain this skill explanation? It's confuse me.
- I think it must have cap dmg.
- is it targeted or area skill?
- is it burns enemy mana based on damage that you takes right?

Skill2
- There is wrong typed in lvl part.
- Increase duration a bit for effectiveness and nerf number for balance.
- Powerful against any heavy caster.

Skill 3
- A way to infinite mana when against caster.
- Increase AoE about 150 for effectiveness.

Ultimate
- How if the target get out the AoE? Endless bounce?
- Needs more explanation.

Overall
Numbers need nerf, needs more in depth explanation for each skill and story, then i'll review again.

Can you review my hero for now? Plz check my signature.

The Observer · 10-30-2009, 11:44 AM

NoThlnG · 10-30-2009, 12:27 PM

Review as Requested :

1st Skill : Quite ok but I don't think it is codeable. Please confirm someone.

2nd Skill : Hmm... this skill is actually quite similar to nether ward also. How about making it stun based on mana lost like mana void?

3rd Skill : I think this is quite similar to obsi's third skill or magic stick that can absorb allies. Need change in my opinion

Ulti : Do you know that this is actually similar to an empowered mystic snake?

manafusion · 10-30-2009, 12:31 PM

haha! just thought of something...

1st skill deals mana burn based on damage dealt to enemy right? but wouldn't that make the skill more imba, especially when you deal 70% of that damage. imagine a 300 damage spell to enemy. 70% of that is 210. that means 210 mana burn. 210 mana burn means deals 210 physical damage also. WOW! total unreduced damage is 510 damage.!!!

Skill 1
- A skill which able to increase enemy mana consume for a few second, perhaps

? This has synergy with third skill and indirect synergy with ulti coz have same function, wasting enemy mana.

Skill 2
- Too situational right?

Skill 3
- Must have mana caps. Or it will be imba. Looks at rylai ulti for example. I suggest 20/40/60/80 mana gain. Also nerf the number.

Ultimate
- But you said the pulsar will not stop bouncing until the main target suffer xxx manaburns.
- What means of prioritize them? Is it burns their mana?

It is as enemy cast spell and damage dealt "by" the enemy.

Hey, what will be done one skills that have random or semi-random AoE damage like Plasma Field (200-400), Obsidian's Ulti (based on other's int), Nevermore's Ulti (closer = greater), Powershot (Decreases per unit passed by), Starfall (Can be once, can be twice), etc?

Arcane Disruption Aoe speed boost/slow. When enemies under this aura has only 21% of their max mana, they will be slowed. When allies have 60% above of mana, they will gain speedboost. Similar to Bloodseeker skill, but i think it will synergize better. Psi Wave Primary Source of damage. the waves deals manaburn(ofc, w/ damage) according to 10/12/14% of Corvus' max mana. It will prioritize units with lesser mana. __________________________________________________ SKILL SYNERGY Mutual Constrain + Volatile Reaction Cast Mutual Constrain to your ally, then Cast Volatile Reaction, high damage+stun at late game + mana replenish of allied units. Mutual Constrain casted on enemy+volatile = damage stun+mana burn. Ouch Mutual Constrain + Psi Wave Psi Wave has the potential to use high manacosts at late game meaning the more your allies will gain. Volatile Recation + Psi Wave Your killing combo Mutual Constrain + Volatile Reaction + Psi Wave Support+Kill combo, important for a clash ETC... __________________________________________________ HERO SYNERGY your ulti + his ulti = fast kill ] See a manaless team. Your passive + his passive will satisfy your team's mana and giving you a speed boost. Ezalor also gives mana. Mutual Constrain helps heavy casters a lot, specifically their high manacost skills, also the same time helps Corvus' a lot ETC __________________________________________________ ITEM SYNERGY Possible Early Game Items Possible Mid Game Items Possible Late Game Items ETC.... __________________________________________________ THANKSLOG chadpiety123 - His Verus idea inspired me very much.

manafusion Member Join Date: Sep 2009 Posts: 608	re: [Int-Sent]Corvus, the Celestial Sage [Testmap] hmm... the ultimate support for Anti-Mage... works well with nerub as well... question abt third skill, do you gain mana from mana burns? other than that, it is quite negligable to have a 5% increment in mana gain because most spells do not comsume much mana. overall: too much manaburn, you need a skill that manipulates on the lost of mana on that target (something like anti-mage's ulti) suggestion: get a stun skill as a normal skill that stuns based on amount of mana lost (to keep up with support type)

chadpiety123 Member Join Date: Jun 2009 Posts: 2,616	re: [Int-Sent]Corvus, the Celestial Sage [Testmap] Your first ability is uncodeable or just plain impractical and focusing all your ability into burning mana is not really the way to go. In fact, if you remember Anub'arak, he was permabanned for that very ability. __________________ Hi, I'm new here. Hope people could help me out start a new suggestion!

Posts: 5,988	re: [Int-Sent]Corvus, the Celestial Sage [Testmap] Your skills are a bit of unoriginality.Skill 1: Nether Ward but manaburn effect.Skill 2: Mana Leak?Skill 3:Essence Aura. Overall Skill 4 is only the good skill.No need to change the ultimate just the 3 skills.

Story - N/A Icons - later, my pc can't display any pic for now. Synergy - too powerful synergy between skills, needs nerf. Skill1 - Can you explain this skill explanation? It's confuse me. - I think it must have cap dmg. - is it targeted or area skill? - is it burns enemy mana based on damage that you takes right? Skill2 - There is wrong typed in lvl part. - Increase duration a bit for effectiveness and nerf number for balance. - Powerful against any heavy caster. Skill 3 - A way to infinite mana when against caster. - Increase AoE about 150 for effectiveness. Ultimate - How if the target get out the AoE? Endless bounce? - Needs more explanation. Overall Numbers need nerf, needs more in depth explanation for each skill and story, then i'll review again. Can you review my hero for now? Plz check my signature. __________________

Please confirm someone. 2nd Skill : Hmm... this skill is actually quite similar to nether ward also. How about making it stun based on mana lost like mana void? 3rd Skill : I think this is quite similar to obsi's third skill or magic stick that can absorb allies. Need change in my opinion Ulti : Do you know that this is actually similar to an empowered mystic snake? __________________ Assassin's Creed Helpful Links Suggestions Epic Quotes .

manafusion Member Join Date: Sep 2009 Posts: 608	re: [Int-Sent]Corvus, the Celestial Sage [Testmap] haha! just thought of something... 1st skill deals mana burn based on damage dealt to enemy right? but wouldn't that make the skill more imba, especially when you deal 70% of that damage. imagine a 300 damage spell to enemy. 70% of that is 210. that means 210 mana burn. 210 mana burn means deals 210 physical damage also. WOW! total unreduced damage is 510 damage.!!!
