Guys, I made a new hero named Kam (Furbolg Assassin) and all I wanna ask here is your opinion in balancing this guy because it is too imba for me. The max level for my map is 25 and it is like a hero defence based on dota but with 6 lanes.

Model: Polar Furbolg Shaman
Base Damage: 38-47
Speed Base:310
Primary: Agility
Agility: 26+2.5
Intelligence: 21+1.5
Strength: 17+2.4

Skills:

Attribute Bonus (10 Levels)
Gives a permanent bonus to Agility, Intelligence, and Strength. 3 bonus and another 3 per level.

Stealth Walk (4 Levels)(Active)
Allows the Assasin to become invisible, and move faster for a set amount of time.

Slow Poison (4 Levels)(Active)(Not Autocast)

|cffffcc00Level 2|r - 20% of attack and 50% of movement speed.

Regenerate (4 Levels)(Passive)
Gives additional HP regeneration to Kam while he is stealth walking.

|cffffcc00Level 2|r - 30 hitpoints is regenerated per second while stealth walking.
|cffffcc00Level 3|r - 40 hitpoints is regenerated per second while stealth walking.
|cffffcc00Level 4|r - 50 hitpoints is regenerated per second while stealth walking.

|CFF0042FFThis skill is passive.|R

NOTE: I Just C&P'd the skill description so there's still the code for color

-Any Suggestions in making this hero a little less imba?

-And anyone good enough to meke me a background story for this hero? (this is the only hero I made that doesn't have a background story)

Reduce the healing during the invis or the duration of invis, because actually, if nobody can see him while he is invis, means a regeneration of 100/200/300/400/500 hp.
The slow on the poison is too important on the movespeed, I'd say you should divide by 2, make it last 4 seconds everytime, and having a cooldown of 9 seconds.
What I said up should be done.

Another fix, but it's as you want, is buffing the Q, and nerfing a bit the R.
Change the Q's damage from 40/70/100/130 to 55/90/125/160.
Change the Q's duration from 10/10/10/10 to 3/5/7/9.

And another one, because it's always good, is giving to your E an effect when your unit isn't stealth. You could maybe rework the E this way:

When stealth : Gives 6/12/18/24/32 health regen per second
When not stealth : Gives 3/6/9/12/15 mana regen per second.

Hope this can help you.

I would reduce the CD of the active slow, as well as the slow itself, because early game, when
your hero Kam needs kills to become a strong carry, a heavy slow that doesn't last long wont
give your hero enough time to kill his enemy. This, as well as invis should be plenty to catch
and keep his target close to attack.

There are lamer heals than the passive Kam has, but I would still completely change it, most agi heroes would opt for a lifesteal item anyways (not sure that you'll have em, but anyways)
Maybe replace the heal with crits, that way Kam would be finishing heroes off Mortred style

I cant really say something as i have nothing to put him against, maybe post some other champs in your map so we can see what hes up against?

However what i could point out now, is that the slow slows way way way to much, there is no way thats gonig to be balanced, I suggest dropping the movement slow to 20-25% on all levels and set the durration to 3 on all levels, just increasing the attack speed slow and mayhaps lower the cd with 0.5-1 sec per level.

and i suggest removing/reworking the health regen spell, as with the current stealth ability, he can be permanent invis. Ether that or Rasie the stealth CD to like 40 sec.

totally offtopic: This doesn't look much like an assasin to me, except his ult and his first skill.


OT: Increase cd of windwalk.
Or make it lvl based

To: Lvl1-18s
Lvl2- 14s
Lvl3- 10s
Lvl4- 6s

Change the Q's duration from 10/10/10/10 to 3/5/7/9.

I think increasing the backstab makes it more imba because a 160 already beats the first level of his ulti of 150 and changing the the dur to 3/5/7/9 makes it useless as a way of escaping.

When stealth : Gives 6/12/18/24/32 health regen per second
When not stealth : Gives 3/6/9/12/15 mana regen per second.

Giving him mana regen while not in stealth mode is kinda imba because my hero only has two active skills and both has 75 mana cost but the HP regen part is good, maybe I will just add a low chance crit to the skill when my hero learns it to make it more assassin-like.

Sooooo.... heres what i got right now.:

Stealth walk
Same (Permanent Invisibility is too much)

Slow Poison
10/15/20/25 of attack and 20/25/30/35 of movement changed the cooldown to 6 secs and the duration to 5 secs

Regeneration (still thinking of another skill but in the mean time, I am using this)
gives 8/16/24/32 regen per sec and 10% chance to deal 1.25 times more damage.

Finishing strike
Same (but is this skill really not that imba? I thought this was the one making my hero too imba)

Perhaps reduce the ultimates passive attack bonus.
I wouldn't suggest reducing the duration of the invisibility or increasing the cooldown too much (perhaps reduce the movement boost) due to it making the hero significantly weaker.

Perhaps remake the slow to work off a different system. Eg, after dealing X damage against target, it becomes slowed by X for X seconds. Or if the target moves X distance within X seconds, reduce movement speed.

    Crazy how much 3d printing has come in the last few years. Sad that it's not as easily modifiable though
  • Varine Varine:
    I bought an Ender 3 during the pandemic and tinkered with it all the time. Just bought a Sovol, not as easy. I'm trying to make it use a different nozzle because I have a fuck ton of Volcanos, and they use what is basically a modified volcano that is just a smidge longer, and almost every part on this thing needs to be redone to make it work
  • Varine Varine:
    Luckily I have a 3d printer for that, I guess. But it's ridiculous. The regular volcanos are 21mm, these Sovol versions are about 23.5mm
  • Varine Varine:
    So, 2.5mm longer. But the thing that measures the bed is about 1.5mm above the nozzle, so if I swap it with a volcano then I'm 1mm behind it. So cool, new bracket to swap that, but THEN the fan shroud to direct air at the part is ALSO going to be .5mm to low, and so I need to redo that, but by doing that it is a little bit off where it should be blowing and it's throwing it at the heating block instead of the part, and fuck man
  • Varine Varine:
    I didn't realize they designed this entire thing to NOT be modded. I would have just got a fucking Bambu if I knew that, the whole point was I could fuck with this. And no one else makes shit for Sovol so I have to go through them, and they have... interesting pricing models. So I have a new extruder altogether that I'm taking apart and going to just design a whole new one to use my nozzles. Dumb design.
  • Varine Varine:
    Can't just buy a new heatblock, you need to get a whole hotend - so block, heater cartridge, thermistor, heatbreak, and nozzle. And they put this fucking paste in there so I can't take the thermistor or cartridge out with any ease, that's 30 dollars. Or you can get the whole extrudor with the direct driver AND that heatblock for like 50, but you still can't get any of it to come apart
  • Varine Varine:
    Partsbuilt has individual parts I found but they're expensive. I think I can get bits swapped around and make this work with generic shit though
