Hero Contest #2 - HQ Hero

[Billy the Cat]

Thing that bugs me now is on how synergy will be judged. Most heroes don't use spells that combo specifically.

 

[Palaslayer]

panda uses. he can ignite.

 

[Billy the Cat]

Now tell me the synergy for all other heroes. ;P
I made a hero that would fit in with other Warcraft heroes and he got spells that can be best used as a support for big fights. But it's not like they create epic effects when used together.

 

[Palaslayer]

that's good! mass effects are horror in ladder games.

 

[Yearight]

Combos does not need to make epic effects, they can be something like this;
A spell is used that damages everything in a small range around the hero per second.
A spell is used which sucks all nearby enemys in a big area around the hero towards the hero and then stuns them for 5 seconds.

This would then damage the units sucked towards the hero as long as they are stunned and close to the hero. I hope you get my example.

 

[Billy the Cat]

I didn't mean effects in the way of being special effects.
I mean spells that create nice effects together like sucking in nearby units and damaging them.

 

[krisserz]

Please, don;t talk about electricity, I hate it! Burned my PC! ^^

Hey Berz I will dedicate my hero for you ;P

 

[Yearight]

Billy the Cat, ooh, well that's not that hard.

 

[Billy the Cat]

Not that hard it might be, but is it needed is the question I have.

 

[M4stah]

I think synergy is also about how they fit the theme. The firelord doesnt have ice spells etc. Also they shouldn't work againt each other.

 

[Sabelion]

I think mine will come tomorrow

I am done with all the spells but I suck at leak fixes so I havent fixed any leaks yet .

Gonna try to do that 2morrow, dunno how to tho

 

[-JonNny]

Finally ive finished my 3rd Spell
Sure i mainly fokussed on getting them to work so code neatening will also follow
Still 3/4 spells nearly finished
But i definitely need an idea for the Ultimate
I was may thinking of a big Meteor Tornado which will catch the units souls he kills or sth

Anyway, Heres my WIP, already quite much work in there ~.~
What do you think about the new Spell? i showed to someone and he definitely didnt like it ._.
even hes always full of critism im not sure if i should keep Combusting Brood

 

[Direfury]

Debode?

 

[Martin Barbov]

Update

Well, I rushed and managed to finish my hero. It turned out better than expecting. I may even have a chance to be in the top 10 .
Now I'll add comments in the triggers and add some finishing touches.

 

[Kingz]

Sadly still at 1st spell, too lazy and plz can someone have the mercy to give me a valid link to JNGP?

Hopefully if i get it i will finish my hero(spring brake, lots of time now).
So i will basicaly rush my hero in one day, hopefully tommorow or the day after.
Gl and please can somebody send me that link?

 

[Yearight]

Jass Newgen Pack right?

[Kingz]

@-JonNny
Nice hero idea, now that i have seen your passive i got inspired^^
@Yearight
+rep and thanks now i can continue working on my hero...

 

[Yearight]

You are welcome.

 

[Kingz]

Got inspiration today, will probably make the remaining 3 spells tommorow^^
The hero which -JonNny made really inspired me how to work on mine

 

[Direfury]

Tweaking my spells now.

 

[Zack1996]

How's everyone doing? I sure wish I could finish mine but school is taking every moment of my spare time. And I still don't have a cute model to start with... I hope you're all doing fine.

by the way, I found this model. http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/...ress-49225/?prev=search=sorceress&d=list&r=20 but it doesn't have a good portrait. Should I continue with it or not?

Tell you what, import the model with the same path as the original Sorceress. That way, it will overwrite the original Sorceress model and it will use the Portait of the original Sorceress. Since the custom skin replaces the default one, the portait should work just fine.
If you want to, please continue working on a hero

 

[Rmx]

!

Last WIP !

The hero is 95% finished i hope i get some positive feedback ^^

ChangeLog :

- Reworked all of the first ability and made it stop when it hits a units making it more realistic ^^

- Many many bug fixes ^^

 

[HailFireer]

Hm. I am stil li nstandstill. This whole week. Hope I finde strength to finish it

 

[Direfury]

Damn ultimate spell of mine won't stick, he morphs, then immediatly morphs back, gonna try and use a diff. base spell for it soon.

 

[Martin Barbov]

As some of you may have noticed I've updated my submission post in the other thread with info of the spells. Now I'll add more about the story behind my hero and the Twilight Order.

 

[HailFireer]

Bah. My hero doesnt have a bacground story. Hes just like a normal melee hero.

EDIT: Can I use blizzard made map for my hero testing?

 

[Zack1996]

It doesn't matter. Melee hero-ish heroes are fine.
And yes, its okay.
This contest is owning~!

 

[HailFireer]

Darn. I still cant think of a ulty spell for my hero ~.~

 

[Kingz]

@Martin Barbov
Just to tell you, your spells aren't MUI, at least the sunray scorch isn't.
Also casting sunray scorch 3-4 times only creates an immense lag.

 

[AntoMarc]

dammit I've got some problems and now I'm not able to finish in time maybe next time sorry for this latest reply I will try to finish it anyway... and good luck to all...

 

[HailFireer]

Hm. My hero is 85% finished...
Only little more studd to fix, and ulty to make. I cant think of an ulty :/

 

[Martin Barbov]

@Martin Barbov

Also casting sunray scorch 3-4 times only creates an immense lag.

And why is it not mui?
About the lag, i'll live with it.

 

[Kingz]

Well i am not sure should the sunray go only to the point you target or should it go further away.
I added 2 more heroes and while testing the sunray i think i seen that while spaming the spell other sunrays either seem to stop, i might be wrong cause i can't really remember.
But you should try to fix that lag.

 

[Martin Barbov]

It is supposed to go only to the target point. Then it stops and stays there until te 4th sec.

 

[Yearight]

Hello again
I'm going on a vacation so I can't see the results of this contest before two weeks or something like that. So I'll just wish you all good luck. If you want to see my spells, you can find them in the spell submissions.

 

[warden13]

I think it doesn't need to be MUI since it's for melee maps and you can't have two same heroes at once. MPI ise fine in my opinion.

 

[Billy the Cat]

I think the judges will prefer MUI, but in fact it shouldn't be a problem. I just do it all MUI!

 

[Freyleyes]

Damn, thinking about good, worthwhile hero spells is hard.

 

[Deuterium]

Well MUI would definetly gain an extra point or so since there is a part of grading which considers the work put on the trigger itself.

And well, I might no join although I got some good ideas for my hero, but I may not be able to start working on the hero until three days from now, which would be sort of too little too late.

 

[Palaslayer]

!!!!!!!!IMPORTANT!!!!!!!!!!


Normal heroes from melee wc3 maps should be mpi and do NOT have to be mui since every hero is limited to one per player

 

[scorpion182]

just use jass, and everything will be done

 

[Palaslayer]

jass not auto mui

once i saw a spell that wasnt mui

 

[Martin Barbov]

Final Update:

I've finished the story. My description is complete.

 

[Kingz]

ALL blizard spells are MUI, i don't see why ours don't need to be.

 

[HailFireer]

http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/pastebin.php?id=0adyva

My final WIP. Here is done. Maybe some more balance changes.
All I have left to do is to transfer him in to a normal map.
Ye, I know ulty is cinda crapy, but I had no ideas, and deadline is few days from now :/
Spells arent MUI. And triggers are bad, plz dont coment em. First time making spells ^.^

 

[Aspard]

!!!!!!!!IMPORTANT!!!!!!!!!!

Open WE, put two heroes of the same type for one player - try it. )

 

[HailFireer]

In WE. wc3 allaws 1 hero of same tipe per player. If he has 2 heros pf same tipe, that is no longer a melee map.

 

[Kingz]

Noez!
Echho won't judge!
At least that is what is pointed out in the first post
Now only hvo will judge...
EDIT:
Wait did echho leave the Hive?
Look at his profile it looks like it...
:'(

 

[Aspard]

In WE. wc3 allaws 1 hero of same tipe per player. If he has 2 heros pf same tipe, that is no longer a melee map.

Okay, then, create a trigger, which will spawn the hero-type at some place. The map still will be Melee.

Let's stop arguing about that. I think, everybody here will do their spells either MUI or neiter MUI nor MPI. That's the matter of qualification, that's all.
