Yeah it is, but the people who are 1500 in HoN are at least 2 times better than the 1500s in Dota.

Also why the fuck doesn't it let you place wards on the cliffs? It takes me 50 tries to click a correct spot. I don't remember that bullshit in war 3 dota.

It also took me 10 minutes last night to find a game since people afk in the fucking queue and don't accept.

Also when you die there's a portrait of the hero that got the last hit on you. What the fuck is that, what useless information. At least tell me something useful like Hero A did 25% damage, Hero B did 60% damage and hero C did 15% damage. So that way I can position myself away from that hero or tell people to initiate on that hero since that hero does a lot of damage. Telling me who got the last hit is fucking dumb when there's a text message that tells you anyways.

This game needs a lot of fucking work.

And it changed my fucking ultimate hotkey again. Why the fuck is it not R?

Hopefully there's a good mod system that doesn't break with every patch.

Carry build implies DPS items. Getting DPS items on ellonia is really really dumb.

If you're mid the safe build is

starting items -> Bottle -> Boots -> steam/greaves & locket -> tablet -> hellflower

That is the build that will work the best in the majority of games. After that you can get whatever, sacstone, shroud, sheep, frostwolf, harkons, heart. Also if you're not mid you can go the same build just skip the bottle.

Tablet is pretty core as she needs a mobility boost. You can get a PK instead, but is more suicidal. Hellflower solves most of your mana issues and is probably better than sheep unless your team picked trash heroes and don't have good initiation stuns/disables/holds.

I can see getting a ring of sorcery if you're in a side lane if you're in more of a support role. You don't have much gold in that situation and RoS will let you spam your shit in team fights. You don't get RoS if you're mid or if you're the farmer in the side lane since that delays your tablet/hellflower which are much better items. Locket/tablet/steam boot cycling give you enough mana for team fights.

Also ellonia is really garbage if your team has no initiation. I've played too many games where i'm leading with my 500 range stun and die with 90% mana because my team is either pussy or picked garbage heroes. She has extremely low strength gain so she's really squishy. So if you look back at some of the games you did poorly in, it was probably because your team had awful initiation.

left 2 games on my klop account today, both got remade...

finished nightmare in d3
had like a 10 minute nailbiting fight with diablo

I'm act 3 nightmare and it's pretty easy for me. Is hell harder?

hell a3-a4 starts getting hard from what i hear. i'm on hell A1 and its still piss easy. but then again i do have some pretty nice equipment for my lvl

it kinda depends wether you visit the auction house and buy weapons/equipment

if you collect your own gear, it stays fairly challenging

yea auction house fucks it up a bit.
I'm always thinking like "why would I waste massive gold for shitty crafting when I can get a better weapon way cheaper in AH?" but on the other side I don't really want to buy stuff because then the game is even easier :/
so I'm just saving my cash atm and will probably buy items once I reach inferno (saved 450k by now)

stfu

Decent items are so fucking overpriced atm, it's disgusting.

+ shit gets retardedly hard in inferno a2 when you try to solo.

As a mage, hell a3 was stupid because of the champion packs that were basically unkillable. (hulking [hasebeasts for example)
