Nominate your "Tiny Tim" spell here!

Game is so far away from crap it isn't even funny... but that doesn't mean specific spells or units aren't "crap". IMO making a good thing even better is a worthwhile goal.

IMO touch spells aren't that useful, but the short range (1-5) with a big AOE are great - powerful yet risky.

I don't have a vote yet to the most useless spell. There is more and more spells all the time that I think are useless but then I find a use for.

Touch spells generally aren't usefull, and I have never tried using them, but they could help you against an assination attempt or in the arena. Once I forgot to script my pretender. He randommly changed between moving, attacking, and casting spells. So the effect was he was moving forward, and casting spells like freezing touch. The damge from that spell was a lot.

And could some of those healing spells not be used when you are expecting long range poison attacks. Or you cast the battlefield spell that has a chance to poison everybody, and you have mages scripted amonst your archers to continuosly heal.

"fanboi"

tee hee

(arn't we all tho? i don't feel like this thread is trashing the devs or game at all, personallly)

Gandalf, I think you and I have different impressions of the forum, in general. I come here assuming that a minority of the people who purchase the game actually browse the forums, and those that do are all fanboys; that's why we're here. So, I guess I'm bold about the way I word things because I know nobody is going to take it personally, and it certainly isn't going to force them to enjoy the game less. You might be taking it personally, I guess, but you have to admit that nothing I say is manipulating (intended or not) you to enjoy the game less. Further, I have not seen anyone state they will not be buying the game because of things they've read on these forums. However, since you represent the officials here, let me see if I can change the thread title to remove any suspicion.

Again, it goes without saying, everyone in this joint is nuts about this game. Gamers know that criticism = love. As an example, a PC game that I don't like is Age of Empires 3. You will never see me criticizing that game; it sucks and I don't care to waste my energy/time trying to figure out why.

@Dedas
Sir, stop derailing this thread, please. You are doing yourself a disfavor by not properly threading your own discussion, because people need to know where to look for it.

What about Reanimation?

5 death gems for a handful of skellingtons? That's unpossible!

[Dedas]

Sorry for that, BigJMoney.

@foodstamp

You nominated Dragon Master. I'm curious as to why you think it is the most underpowered in the game, because you didn't write why!
