Hero Ideas [Greek Mythology]

[sjakie]

Here comes a new hero idea....fasten your seatbelts....

Spoiler

Phobos, the incarnation of fear

War Deity (passive)
Being a son of the war god Ares, Phobos is very skilled on the battlefield.
He has a 10/18/25% chance to deal double damage and has a 20/30/40% chance to block 30/45/60 damage.

Fear
Casts terrible fear upon every enemy in the target area, causing every normal unit to run away in fear for 4/6/8 seconds and every hero to take 10/20/30% extra damage and a 20/30/40% chance to miss for 6/10/14 seconds. Affects a small/medium/large area.

Night Spear
Phobos and his twin brother Deimos received the nickname "Sons of the Night". Phobos will throw a with dark magic enchanted spear at the target enemy, dealing 100/200/300 damage. If the target enemy is feared, it will take 25/40/55 damage every second fear lasts. (This skill has a quite short range)

Terror Pulse (ultimate)
Unleashed a pulse of true terror itself, covering the battlefield with fear, terror, and panic. This slows all units (including allies, not including Phobos) within 400 range of Phobos their movement speed by 50% and attack speed by 40%. Lasts 6 seconds

Hope u like it.

Don't forget about the Titans D=
Prometheus:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prometheus

Clay Warriors: Molds a group of warriors from clay. (Water elemental)
Stone Body: Active to give Prometheus extra hitpoints,armor, and damage. (Avatar)
Cleaving: Same as pitlords
Gods Fire: Prometheus brings down the fire from the heavens, dealing heavy damage to units in a large area (channeling)

His final fits in with the lore

 

[FrozenShadow]

Wonderful, I love both the skills! Give me more, +Rep!

Btw, prometheus is easily coded, actually no triggers needed xD

 

[FrozenShadow]

Need more ideas! Bump

 

[sjakie]

Sure we want to give you ideas, but you'll have to give us comment of our previous ideas, so we can try to suggest improvements for them. Theres no way an idea can be perfect.
Anyway, heres a new random thingy:

Spoiler

Charon, Styx Ferryman

Obolus (passive)
The price to cross the Styx is 1 obolus, though on the battlefield, Charon demands 1 obolus from every enemy he encounters. Gives a 10/12/15% chance to steal 20/35/50 gold from any enemy he attacks. If the enemy has below 400 gold, he does not lose gold but takes 100/125/150 damage.

Tide of the Styx
Charon uses his powers to order the water of the Styx to flow over the earth.
This soakes the ground within 400 range of Charon with magical waters that causes enemies to have their movement speed slowed by 15/25/35% and lose 20/30/40 hp and mana per second. Lasts 4/6/8 seconds.

Slam
Charon always carries a hammer or an oar to keep the moneyless souls who want to cross the Styx on a distance. He swings his weapon around, dealing 150/185/225 damage to nearby units and stunning them for 2 seconds.

Last Ferry
Passively increases Tide of the Styx' range by 100.
When Charon activates this skill, he ferries all nearby units who are under the effect of Tide of the Styx to the land of the dead. This makes them totaly dissapear for 6 seconds. While they are dissapeared, the effect of Tide of the Styx keeps harming them. When they reach the land of the living again, they have their armor reduced by 6 for 10 seconds.

Less good than my previous ideas IMO, but I hope u like it.

 

[FrozenShadow]

yeah your ideas were great, I just need one question... how do I detect if the opponent has 400 gold or less?


btw... I remember this guy who got punished for letting the gods eat his children... who was he? I think Tantalus? not really sure...

 

[sjakie]

Yeah, tantalus feeded the gods his child, but they noticed it before they took a bite, exept for Afrodite (or Aphrodite, as some of you want to call her).

Zeus fixed this by giving the kid a ivory shoulder (Afrodite took a bite of his shoulder)

And about the gold, cant you do something with properties?
Like (player owning (target unit of ability))'s gold equal or greater than 400?
I dont feel like opening the trigger editor and looking it up, but I'm sure its possible.

 

[Rhadamant]

I've ready the Iliad twice and the Odyssey once, if you want to be true to your characters you really need to give them a read. Movies like Troy and Helen of Troy pale in comparison to the original Iliad.

Also I would stray from mixing up Norse Mythology, Greek Mythology and the old Roman State Religion.

 

[Cidzero]

Theres an event that checks gold on its own, so you can have it check when gold gets less than 400.

You go girl! (or boy)
Movies like gladiator, troy, and 300 are historical so incorrect as hell. Nothing beats the true stories. But I'm sure that with the keen eye of so many greek-loving Thehelper.net members watching him Frozenshadow wont have the chance to screw anything up in that area.

As for the mixing...I dont think any of us was planning to suggest anything not greek/roman.

 

[FrozenShadow]

Lolz, I have read The Illiad and The Odyssey, good books, and it makes you read more, because of the poems and all. I basically read everything Greek lolz... and It all started with a book called: Percy Jackson and the Olympians, and now I read the Odyssey and Illiad

[13lade619]

i recently watched 300... i think king leonidas could make a good wc3 hero .

 

[FrozenShadow]

Hasslarn, the ultimate for Rhea might need changing, due to the fact that Zeus is a hero.

But Great Overall!

I'll give you +Rep when I get back from the Movies, watching Indiana Jones lol

[Dakho]

Vulcan(Hephaestus)

Fire and Brimstone: Calls down a rain of fire. Based on: Rain of Fire (crazy rite?)

Heart of Fire: Periodically releases blastwaves, dealing damage to nearby enemies.

[Cornface]

Medusa

Primary Attribute:Intelligence


Snake Bite

You could just make a lovely trigger, stunning the unit, give it reduced armor and give it some more grayish color, and stopping it's movement.
