Legion TD Mega 3.44a (Developer Notes)

Postby broud3r » Mon Nov 05, 2018 10:59 pm

THIS IS STILL WORK IN PROGRESS AND NOTHING ON THIS CHANGELOG IS FINAL SO FAR!!! AND NO THERE IS NO ETA YET
The beta test phase didn't start yet so some of those features aren't completly tested and might be unstable.
I just post it partly already to let you know i am still alive and work on it
:)

Units:
Spoiler!
Militia
Can be upgraded with different items.
Items can not be changed once acquired.

Colt
Reduced acquisition to the default 500 of meleeunits.

Rider
Reduced acquisition 800 -> 600

(Rider was likely to attack already before any meleeunit started to move)

Polar Bear
Reduced acquisition to the default 500 of meleeunits.

Parasite and its upgrade
Provide bonus to summons and units created on death as well (besides the bonus hp)

Ghoul
Display the archieved hp and dmg during the building phase.

Hades(Diabolic)
Spawns the imps instantly again.

(Due to the reworked ability system the Diabolic took up to 5 seconds to finally summon imps)

Disciple
If there is a unit close to the destination of the missile it stays there until it explodes.

Fire Archer
Gains +1 mana on kill

Sentry
removed its ability and adjusted the damage.
increased the attackspeed by 5%.
increased the damage point by 50%.
(The ability just increased the pierce damage which made it pointless)

Nightsaber
increased attackanimationspeed and projectile speed by 20%
reduced damage loss factor 0.5 -> 0.45

Dark Mage
Reduced the manacost of Mindwarp to 13
Increased the range of units to consider (300->500)
Prioritize targets based on its remaining hp and value more precisely.
(Unit with the hightest sum current HP + value)

Nightcrawler
Reduced the slow effect by 1% per stack (6%->5%) for a total of 30%
Fixed that the bonus damage per stack increased up to 9 times instead of 6
Reduced the durantion on boss units (2 seconds -> 1.25 seconds)

Ancient Wandingoo
Increases the attackspeed by 0.05 (1.1-> 1.05)
Increases the hp by 45 (1810 -> 1855)

Wandingoo
Increased the hp by 20 (775 -> 795)
Increased the damage by 6 (90-100 -> 96-106)

Thunderbird
Increased attackspeed by 0.05 (1.90 -> 1.85)
Increased its range by 25 (300 -> 325)

Pudge
Life Absorption
Damages all adjacent fighter at the beginning of the round by 10% of their maximum hp and increases his own hp by this amount.

Warden
Fixed a bug that caused the Warden to get stuck while playing without no mid mode.
When the hp of the Warden is below 50% while she has full Mana she jumps back to her starting location and regain 400 hp.
(this jump just applies on lane and not during arena)

Thrall
Fixed that he couldnt stun some types of units.
Increased hp 2500 -> 2700
Reduced damage 252-268 -> 232-248
New ability Hot Blood
Increases the damage by 2 for each 100 hp missing.

[Will add the rest later]

Summons

Spoiler!
[Placeholder... will add it later]


New Race
Pirates

Spoiler!
[The race is already implemented and playable with the -ap mode.
But as this update seems so big already it tend to postpone its release to the prophet builder by 1-3 month]


New Modes

Prophet Pick (-pp) as primary gamemode.

Each player gets two random units per tier 1 - tier 5 and a random tier 6 unit.
You have 1 minute to pick 6 of those units independent of its tier.

Rerolls are unaffected by this right now.

(Many "bad rolls" arent about having just bad units, its more about units having a bad synergy or are simply to situational like auren or debuffs.
Well sometimes they really suck...
Beeing able to pick out of 11 significantly reduces the RNG and gives the player more possibilities to start.
Further the possibility to start with multiple units of the same tier increases the variety of combinations and might offer new game plays.)

Skill Points (-sp) as secondary gamemode
After each round you receive a skillpoint to spend on the following enhancements
Tier1 enhancements cost one point and can be upgraded three times,
Tier2 cost two point, can be upgraded 2 times and require 5 points in the related skilltree.
Tier3 cost three point, cant be upgraded further und require 12 points in the related skilltree.

Infoboard
Removed the rolls from the infoboard.
(its redundant with the new displayed rolls on the players base and caused some lags on reroll)

The infoboard displays now the stats of the current and following 2 rounds.

Replay detection / Observer
While watching a replay or observing a game you can now see the scoreboard for both sides as well as the rolls for each player.

Arena crashes
Fixed one crash related to Blizzards latest update.
Cant confirm yet if there are still undiscovered unit combinatons.

Nice to see, that you are working on the game broud3r. Thanks for your hard work.
I like the fact that you changed the way the parasite works, but i think it could be way to strong on the big summoners/splitters Hydra/Hades/Pure.
In fact i suggest that parasite should help casters some more. For example, Cooldown reduction/mana boost for druid/HR etc. maybe more armor reduction for Sould of Villain.
This would probably be too much work/balancing.

Love the fact that this game keeps getting updated, spices up so many things and makes it so much better. Thank you for your hard work.
The parasite changes may be a bit broken though. It seems like parasite will be incredibly overpowered for things like hades

What ever happened to this though. Also I don’t think spitter needs a Nerv now. Think it’s fine the way it is
