Trebs

This is where all random discussion about DoE goes. If it doesn't feel like it fits anywhere else but is still related to the map, this is the place to post it.

Which Treb version?

How about this:

Ruin Upgrade
Costs X faction.
For the next Y minutes Treb attacks will Ruin units for Z seconds.

With Maim and Cripple too.

Well, even if it wouldn't work this way, having one permanent upgrade for each condition would be lame.
It should last like 4-5 minutes or so, then wear off.

Also, the Treb could possibly give assist to the buying player when it hits an enemy hero with a condition. That would be nice.
Or even be boosted by the items you buy!
Well, probably not.

I think the idea of treb upgrades have been kicked off the list.

I love how only 11 people posted, and 15 voted.

That makes you a hypocrite, by the way.

I think trebs were initially given conditions to make spells that are useless without conditions more useful ( epidemic, wheel, exuro's passive;... etc ) but somewhat failed because, oh yeah, it's random. /doh

The trebs seem fine with me, although as an added level of realism, they should fire a tad slower (slightly longer cooldown). I like the random factor of it, it can really level the playing field. Like if you're an Order hero like Parhelios behind chased by Caliga, I like the idea that a gigantic boulder can either hit you (WTF rigged) or Caliga (OMFG got away).

Keep those massive siege engines of destruction, I say!

I was probably thinking scrub, then. It makes you a scrub. Typing a response should be obligatory with voting on a poll!

edit: why did I think hypocrite? u_u

I voted without posting my reasoning because I already know my opinion and I'm the one this thread exists to convince.

I vote for it's nonexistence.

Having it around feels like having a 1% critical strike that either ruins, maims, or cripples someone on attack. That's just as high chance as the trebs can hit anything worthwhile.

Keep conversations with loki to a minimum please, his sig is tearing the page apart if he's posting too often. xD
