Map Info
|
C.H.A.O.S. is a Custom Hero Aeon of Strife map. The base game features 3vs3vs3 moba gamplay. In "Last Team Standing", victory is achieved by defeating both enemy players. However, in "Sudden Death", victory is achieved by having the highest total building life when one of your enemies are defeated. Another key element is that Heroes can be customised to suite your gameplay preferences. See the section below for more details. |
Features
|
Custom Heroes Customise your hero by choosing the abilities you need to defeat your opponents. Ability choices are made during the course of the game, therefore, you can adapt to your enemies. More Freedom You are not limited to a single offensive, defensive, passive etc. ability. Choose as much spells from any type as you like. Regardless of your choices, your abilities will always use QWERTY hotkeys. New Constraints Each hero has a set of ability classes and can only choose abilities from those classes. Therefore, unlike in other custom hero maps, different heroes can have remarkably different choices. Revamped Stats Agility & Intelligence have been changed. Agility no longer gives armor, but now gives cooldown speed (multiplicative cooldown reduction) and intelligence gives percentage bonus spell damage. Unique Item Passives CHAOS features unique scripted item passives, such as turning incoming damage to damage over time, shooting shard of ice at enemies while standing still, evasion while moving etc. Point Control CHAOS features a series of capturable points which grant increased gold generation. Further, during nights, creeps do not spawn, but points give periodic experience. Therefore, the focus of objectives shift with the day/night cycle. Interesting Boss Fights Unlike in conventional mobas, the Roshan/Dragon equivalent in CHAOS comes with its own AI and abilities. Therefore, prepare for a very mobile boss with a series of very dangerous dodge-able abilities. |
Screenshots

Here is a brief selection of screenshots featuring some of the terrain & general gamplay. Please submit suggestions for screenshots or actual screenshots in the thread below. |
The ruby recipe shop

Buying skills

Capturing a neutral point

After a large strategic point has been captured, it is locked for 2 minutes and cannot be captured by enemies. The "secret shops" are also located here.

Restoration pickups spawn at the smaller controllable points. These points do not lock and provide significantly less gold and experience over time than the large points.

Getting my ass handed to my by the elder dragon. The elder dragon (located at the center), scales with levels and remains a significant challenge throughout the game. Killing the elder dragon grants "dragon eggs", which can either be sold for gold or used to summon a lesser dragon creep wave.

Just the creeps for the blue and green team.

Assaulting an tier 1 tower

Once the dragon reaches level 6, it can call down meteors. Do not engage without boots!

The Flaming Longsword an example of a weapon.

Trying to pick up a longsword of thunder

Using the disabled item, switches to that item, but disables the other sword.

A monster shrine - which summons neutral creeps

Using a new spell, "Duplicate" to duplicate the summon lightning elemental spell. This effectively distracts the creeps while gunning them down.

The elder dragon uses an priority based AI script, which evaluates distance, life, unit type & spell resistance to choose its foes. Therefore, it is not so easily distracted when a low life hero is nearby.
