yeh i forgot to post that i needed some suggestions as to what we shoudl do with reg. sry this is all i did for him thus far (pitiful to some point lol i know but i dont want to do too too much).

plz provide suggestions as to wat u think reg needs to make him more viable and ill see wat i can do.

What about replacing the stun proc chance with a silence proc chance (was thinking 1 sec but that might be too good) since cooldown are not reset and you can still move it would have less effect being a random occurance, but may also be ultimately useless i dont know here is pretty different machanic.

I had some ballance ideas (the one that appeared to make a difference) in the mod i attempted. The number proved to be overpowered vs the AI.

These number are probably too good but they did make reg much better. I toned them back for the next change list.

Right now people just cast MoB every time it's off cooldown and while that would still work the way it currently does, better Reg players could distinguish themselves by choosing when to cast it.

Agreed.  I think this will be an 'iterative' approach overall and we have to do 'minor' tweaks.  Once all DGs have been balanced, then maybe we can gain further isight into how to make the ones that remain underpowered 'viable'.

For instance, a major tweak could be to give Reg some kind of armour over time buff.  Something that increases his armour as his HP goes down... makes him more capable of holding his own in aa fights.  For example:

HP               Armour Buff

100%           +5%

75%             +25%

50%             +40%

30%             +80%

15%             +120%

I literally made these numbers up now and I don't want to start a discussion on it, the idea is simply to illustrate something that could be done to help his survivability.  You still have to invest in armour items, but your return is exponential as you get into more and more trouble... 

However, that's a major tweak and I don't think its appropriate for this round... maybe for round 2 once we get a better idea of where the balance lies... 

And Reg has higher armor, attack rate, and health.

it lasts for 20 secs btw. which i think is fair enough coz its annoying as it is if someone constantly snipes you.

now onto what i think should be implemented of whats been suggested so far...

- an interruption added to MotB
- deadeye reworked altogether (this could be a pain lol)
- some minor figure tweaks to angelic fury

I tried a yesterday adding a crit rate to snipe for deadeye like DA's level 15. I also thought of what nzac mentioned which was a silence time on a target instead of a stun. Now reducing snipe cast time isnt so good from a "visual" perspective. I was wrong in assuming that the animations would speed up according to the cast time specified. so i decided to leave the cast time the same.

So what im thinking is im going to spend a little bit more time on getting the crit effect to work and maybe have a silence effect added to it. But the dot points above is what im gonna be addressing at this point in time.

PROBLEMS WITH BUFFING REG
- increasing his base speed could make him very advantageous over many demis, especially when played in conjunction with the maim ability.

- increasing maim figures can also be OP, coz those that spec in slow down debuffs usually choose poison dagger as their favor item which majority of the time if u have a god team results in opposition death 90% of the time. Dont forget hes got MotB as another snare as well as 4th mines.

- increasing his AA dmg. Angelic assists him in this aspect that he lacks, thats why im hestitant to tweak or add any attack rate or dmg output of any sort.

REASONS WHY HE MAY SEEM INCOMPETENT
- playing him in any 1v1 situation will often lead to him falling bak. i think this should happen anyway coz as many ppl have mentioned, "he is a support character".

- built incorrectly. Most of the time i see newbie players using reg which often makes reg look like a complete waste of space. But ive witnessed few players that can use him at a very pro level and often turn around games.

You dont have to discuss what ive written here but these are the things that im thinking about while tweaking him. Just so you my thought process...

Sorry your missing the point, with the debuff reg shoots slower, TB does more damage to reg than reg does to tb, so armor to damage isn't working out for reg, and hp is pretty similar, especially considering that rain of ice is beats snipe.

I already acknowledged that, so I don't see how I'm missing the point. Also, RoI and Snipe are completely different skills, a much better comparison could be made with mines.

Maim - i feel this can be a very powerful tool strategically coz for one, you are inflicting this from a ranged position and if u have a nice dps ally on ur side at the time the opponent will find it very hard to flee. If im going to buff it in any way i might just increased the debuff duration by 1 second. It may not seem like much but every second counts in my eyes lol.

Snipe - its all about timing and not many ppl can achieve this. ALthough when you have a good team or premades or wateva u want to call it, snipe becomes the difference between life and death. so i believe it doesnt rlly need changing as such. However, deadeye needs a change definately. What ive done atm is made it a stronger variation of the previous snipe level to this skill. The only problem ive come across with this is that the icon in the skill bar at the bottom of the screen does not inherit the stats and figures of my Deadeye properties. I prob cant change this unless i customize an icon and reference it (which i dont think i have the program to manipulate this stuff? im not sure).
Ive thought of another possibility i can have for deadeye which is, at a weapon proc rate of X% targets attack speed is reduced by X% and health regen reduced by X%. This will give a regulus the opportunity (if it arises) to confront a ooze UB or other major dps demi.

Mines - I think this skill has spoken for itself. Its one of the most effective skills regulus possesses, and one of his most vertsatile i believe. It can be used in a number of ways, a trap, confronting burst dmg, scare tactic, a prepared flee mine field for urself etc. So i dont think im going to touch this skill atm.

All this being said, we can somewhat come to the conclusion that up close, Regulus is a poor performer and shouldnt be used as a tank or for attempting to push an enemy demigod. He strengths are from afar, and playing a more strategical role than anything else.

Each demigod has their own unique role.
