I like the pic. Let's see if this item is another failure like the Energizer.

Edit: 550+550+700 =/= 1700, math ain't your strength, S2. At least in game it's showing the correct sum.

[NaNNy`]

first skill of revenant miss the description

[JimmehCake]

Looks like the miscalculation is already pointed out.
I love the dampeer buff, he was pretty strong already anyway lol.

[ktvstefan]

i cant install -.-
i start download the patch, my hon load it like always and then desktop with "waiting for hon 2 be closed" and nothing happen anymore.. help?!

[HatTrick]

WOW YES! Two of my FAVORITE HEROES were buffed!! Oh joyous day!! :]

[nV]

1250 gold coins for new chat color?
High way robbery.

[PjeYyY]

No new alt SKIN for any champion :O?

[Tristero]

So ra now needs empath.

[Varty]

Where can I stat reset with gold coins?

- Stat Resets and Sub Accounts can be bought in the Store with Gold Coins

Didn't find it in the store

[HatTrick]

Looks like the miscalculation is already pointed out.
I love the dampeer buff, he was pretty strong already anyway lol.

Not true, when Dampeer died he lost all. his ultimate charges, reducing the strength of all his abilities. To reach his potential again, he had to wait for 3 entire ultimates. This patch is a tremendous buff to his playability since he can recover in 90 seconds and play a huge roll in team fights again

[MOBAKing]

No new alt SKIN for any champion :O?

SKIN for any champion
any champion :O?

champion :O
GG HoN.

Anyways, it looks like a pretty decent patch. Glad to see Aluna receiving a nerf to her auto-attacks and it's always exciting to see new items (which I'm more excited for than the new hero). Great job @S2 for providing patches so often, keep up the good work.

[DonkeyHot]

Why the **** nerf Aluna?

[iStealSkills]

i cant install -.-
i start download the patch, my hon load it like always and then desktop with "waiting for hon 2 be closed" and nothing happen anymore.. help?!


Nice patch but got a problem....

After I dl and install it my game stop on S2 logo and only thing I can do is manually restart my pc -.-'

(I'm on Windows)

Same here, anyone know how to fix it?

[Fancy_Pantz]

Whats the button for the new colour?

[Rofl_Cake]

Nerf to Ra's passive? Damn, DogKaiser, I am disappoint. You make some nice balance changes then at the very end, WHAM! Wag of the finger for an atrocious change.

[Kiougar]

I think that nerf on Ra is a bit too much :/
I would prefer a 25% reduction on regen not a 50%... (from 2/4/6/8 to 1,5/3/4,5/6)
Just my humble opinion...:cool:

[Wombut]

Ra needed that nerf imo, atleast the way i build him up, both helmets ect, at end i had too much regen, just juke few seconds and im ready to go with "full mana" and hp, no downtime like other heroes, just 2 shot creepwaves as you see them come.

[QtheMuse]

Good nerf to rar makes his early game not so spammy, and give your a small ability to harass him out of the lane. nice nice.

[Vegetius]

Very NICE PATCH!!! :D Finally my Dampeer <3...

Ra nerf was needed....

and good job also for Empath.

[bckz`]

Stat reset and sub account for gold coins only ;)

[Ashlan]

i downloaded the patch 5 min before and now i need to download it again....

[LoNeS]

Thak god ra was nerfed

[Makumba]

Noo Amun Ra noo pls back normal Ashes to Ashes regeneration

[Rakas]

No revenant symbol in the shop? Really S2?

[Arathar]

awsome

[Harakesh]

Sweet, finally a nerf on Ra.

hmm, ok nice patch, so please put the matchmaking sistem online, because today we do not even got one week without getting the matchmaking sistem going down, or a problem, or a failure, something like this, and when i get home i cant play my PAID game, this is why you have 40.000 players and Defend of the Ancients one game created in 2003*has 2.000.000

[wezo]

Besides the nerfs and buffs, what about the royal tanzanite, faa man 5000 silver 1300 gold, maybe just a tad overpriced.

[FDY]

aluna nerf made me sad :(

[Miveal]

Where is my Warden alt!?

btw:




- Russian Stringtables updated



LOL

[DreadLocks]

They actually reached 500,000 active accounts not too long ago.

HoN's playerbase is growing. Not exponitially, but it is.

[Reldnahc]

Good to see another new item to complement the lack of armor on astrolabe and ring of sorcery.

Ra change was a needed nerf but his armor needs buffed now slightly. Changes to FA were nice too.

[indiehjaerta]

Sweet buff Empath loved ger before patch and now shes a baller

[DarkSkidCrow]

make stat reset available with silver coins also please :(........ no way i can afford gold coins s2 please

[Past]

No new alt SKIN for any champion :O?

there's the dryad warden skin.

[mtK]

make stat reset available with silver coins also please :(........ no way i can afford gold coins s2 please

Yeah right... greifing all the way?

[Dark_Kratos]

LoL why nerf ALUNA !!!!! ????? WTF !!!!

[Arcee]

Awesome.

[DarkSkidCrow]

yes wat the ****. aluna is perfectly balanced now u gotta nerf her atk animation now is impossible to animation cancle atk early game because of her super slow turn speed GG s2 why u gotta ruin everything.

[SwampFr0g]

sooo im having trouble with the new patch, every time it goes to the black screen where the white bar fills it crashes. anyone else having this problem?

[IRONBRAH]

Good thing I didn't buy that Ra avatar. He's sht now. And that hero pic looks exactly like a model that someone used for corrupted dis somewhere in the skins lol.

[Vortex]

BB jungler Ra. Why the **** I wasted 300 gold for his alt?

[AveiMil]

Amun-Ra did not need a nerf.

[Dordanov]

Finally a much needed Amun-Ra nerf. Aluna nerf and Dampeer buffs are nice as well.

Overall seems like a pretty good patch to me.

[Smyd]

New armor item will be Imba. Just wait.

[NailAzuma]

Empath new ulti cooldown not work, always is 100 -.-

[Skyve]

I don't get how the Ra nerf is justified. At least they should also have reduced the health cost on his stun accordingly, or at least cap the health cost, so the skill doesn't end up being obsoleted lategame.

[BlackClown]

hahahaha good job nerfing an already totally underpowered hero :D:D:D. God S2, you'll never learn the lesson, will you? I could smurf better with empath than him now.

[Insanitarius]

yes wat the ****. aluna is perfectly balanced now u gotta nerf her atk animation now is impossible to animation cancle atk early game because of her super slow turn speed GG s2 why u gotta ruin everything.

The nerf had nothing (and I mean nothing) to do with her attack animation, it was her attack cooldown that was nerfed. Also known as her attack speed, you know, the time between her attacks.

1.7 seconds is what almost every other hero in the game uses.

[Fettkeewl]

Aluna
- Attack cooldown from 1450 to 1700

What is this ...? i dont even..

[Spankle]

New item on predator with a shieldbreaker OUCH!

[Skyve]

New item on predator with a shieldbreaker OUCH!

Plus a Revenant to grant even more -armor, plus pesti, plus andro...

:D

[Deathcalibur]

Bulwark is secret Nomad buff?

[Clarry]

How much does the sub accout cost in gold coins?

[Homie90]

new hero is crappy
ra too nerfed
aluna nerf wtf ?
new item is fine but would like to see new luxury items (like something other to build with snake bracelet or dancing blade)
damper buff very nice

[Alai]

Pretty nice that you can reset stats with gold coins.
What is the cost though?

Edit: Nvm its 1050 gold coins just saw it in the shop

[MrGunFighter]

If new armor affects buildings, as DB does, its huge item. It makes games faster and early push tactics even more powerful.

[BelladHoNna]

Need Warden symbol ASAP!

[FlameStick]

Sols bulwark gonna be fun on dw :)

[way2addictin]

I like the pic. Let's see if this item is another failure like the Energizer.

Edit: 550+550+700 =/= 1700, math ain't your strength, S2. At least in game it's showing the correct sum.


lmao ur so stupid, u try and make s2 look bad and come across as a stupid douche in the process. Lets break it down for you.

550 add another 550, thats 1100, then add 700, thats 1800 bud :) S2 did nothing wrong :) recheck ur math before u post :)

[Nephera]

hahahahah i like how people first cryed about RA be so op and now he gets nerf you cry that he is useless now? noobs... never learn...

[Devonrex]

Nice patch guys :) keep up the good work

[DreadLocks]

lmao ur so stupid, u try and make s2 look bad and come across as a stupid douche in the process. Lets break it down for you.

550 add another 550, thats 1100, then add 700, thats 1800 bud :) S2 did nothing wrong :) recheck ur math before u post :)

=/= means DOES NOT EQUAL, just so you know.

[TaeYeon]

Aluna nerf WTF!?

I have lost my dragon courier in your last problem in database ;/
someone can give me it back, or something? :D

[redeye998]

eat nerf ra!

+9001
At last!!!

[Bignoma]

where is the dota`s heros? =(. I know hon and dota are totally diferent games, but i want more dota`s heros.-

[Batchman]

where is the dota`s heros? =(. I know hon and dota are totally diferent games, but i want more dota`s heros.-

go play dota ...

[DreadLocks]

where is the dota`s heros? =(. I know hon and dota are totally diferent games, but i want more dota`s heros.-

I don't think they can anymore, eversince VALVe's been working on the sequel with IceFrog...the douche.

[Mikenator18]

Good to see that you guys @ S2 are nerfing truly under powered heroes, I hope to one day see Dampeer again, such a cool champion.

[BrainF1ow]

Btw, account`s cost 10$ permamently, or for some time only?

[Complaint]

anyone else notice S2 forgot to remove platemail from the game? it's the same thing they did with halberd. the only other thing platemail is used for is :FrostfieldPlate: (for those of you who don't recognize the item icon because you've never seen it made, it's frostfield plate).

it should just be :Ringmail::Ringmail::AcolytesStaff:(recipe)

also, where'd that aluna nerf come from? i felt like her lackluster midgame made up for her early dominance. sad panda.

[Granman]

Finally, a Ra nerf.

[Blaky039]

ra useless now

[SHAYTON]

how about making it possible to update from the client cause it never works.

[waddafok]

good changes and horrible changes. looks like a typical s2 patch to me :P

[ShammySham]

I like the changes, but the new item seems a bit too powerful.

[C00LBeans]

Forsaken archer ult buff!

It's about time ffs, i always wondered why a terrible ult like that had such a long cooldown.

[Eisenhammer]

The nerf had nothing (and I mean nothing) to do with her attack animation, it was her attack cooldown that was nerfed. Also known as her attack speed, you know, the time between her attacks.

1.7 seconds is what almost every other hero in the game uses.

Where do you see this? that it is almost every other hero in the game uses? I believe this nerf now makes her the slowest attack speed in the game as it makes her attack 0.58 attack / second

If you go to the heroes page there is noone that has that low of an attack speed when you hover your mouse over their portrait. Totally unnecessary.

[engoldin]

Incoming rollbacks of the Ra and Aluna nerfs in subsequent patches. Keep your eyes open. ^^

[Mikenator18]

lmao ur so stupid, u try and make s2 look bad and come across as a stupid douche in the process. Lets break it down for you.

550 add another 550, thats 1100, then add 700, thats 1800 bud :) S2 did nothing wrong :) recheck ur math before u post :)

They changed the patch notes you incoherent ****, keep reading the thread before you comment about someone else being a "Stupid douche" as many have quoted they had it at 1700 before changing it to 1800.

[Fry]

Would be better if you fixed more of Parasite's bugs, such as:

- Parasite not being reselected if his infested unit dies from enemy damage
- Parasite's infessted unit still being attacked by whatever was targeting it when it gets infested, regardless of friend or foe status

[Aviseras]

New item and new hero both pretty nice.

[man_guy]

The attack cooldown thingy on aluna, is that a buff or a nerf? or neither one of them?

Nerf. She's back to where most other heroes are.

[BlooDByte]

finally amun ra nerf thanx :)

[Serret]

nice changes, although I'm not sure about the Dampeer ones.

[davek]

Good to see a dampeer buff, badly needed in my opinion.

[puppapuppa]

finally amun ra

[SeriousCat]

Hm... I'm a bit nostalgic now with this Revenant guy...

http://magiccards.info/scans/en/al/21.jpg

Good old times.

[Nine_Cloak]

No parasite buff/Aluna chasing nerf makes me sad. Buff to Forsaken was in the wrong area, her ultimate needs a rework, not a buff. Nerf to amun'ra wasn't needed, especially not that hard, he's a derp hero as is. Homecoming stone swap nerf? I can't really tell, is that what's trying to be fixed here?

Other than those, can't wait to play revenant, pumped for the dampeer change as I loved him, I love the new item, and I'm pumped to see Empath buff, as when I play with clannies, we do a strat revolving around me as Empath and our best player as a carry. Very, very excited to see these changes.

[Beroya]

I sincerely hope they tested those numbers on Ra, because I'm sure they knew that would wreck his early game potential, his ability to jungle, and any possibility of a solo Ra lane.

[Kap1t0shkA]

I sincerely hope they tested those numbers on Ra, because I'm sure they knew that would wreck his early game potential, his ability to jungle, and any possibility of a solo Ra lane.

Doubt it.

Amun-Ra needs a rework. He's trash that won't ever get picked as it stands right now.

[SeriousCat]

I just play a game with Ra right now, and easily I can say he has lost almost all his potential. His early game has dropped to the ground, and he cannot stand in a solo lane anymore (although he still is a semi-decent solo mid laner, but not nearly as strong as before).

The nerf was too much. I think +2/3.5/5/6.5 is a much better option. Now Ra has dropped into semi-trash tier.

[V83]

:pyro: Pyromancer
- Fixed the DoT from Fervor applying the proper level


Whats DoT means?

[Good_Apollo]

Empath buffed, Ra nerfed and Aluna nerfed. What?

[Rikomi]

Is it still possible to swap your homecoming stone with another item while your teleporting?

[J1337]

finally, Ra gets the nerfhammer. Thank you S2! 8D

[Yurixy]

oh my ... u nerfed Aluna , now I'm a sad panda :(

[Yinn]

Nobody will play RA again :) overnerfed
Dampeer needed a real change for his essence system. Not this crap
New item sounds nice
New name color is crap cause Gold is the only real color

[Pepperz]

All I have to ask is why did they bother reworking shieldbreaker and then come out with Sol's bulwark? Sols puts Shieldbreaker even further into the trash category. 1800 for -5 armor AURA or 2500 for 30 damage and -2 armor on target and it also takes your modifier slot. Not to mention that Sols has about a 3x easier build up than a shieldbreaker.

[BoboTheKlown]

Is it still possible to swap your homecoming stone with another item while your teleporting?

Yes. Well kind of. The stone will now disappear when you use it.

YES FINALLY A RA NERF!

[Sshado]

Sols puts Shieldbreaker even further into the trash category. 1800 for -5 armor AURA or 2500 for 30 damage and -2 armor on target and it also takes your modifier slot. Not to mention that Sols has about a 3x easier build up than a shieldbreaker.

Best feedback in this whole thread.

[MLG_PawnStar]

ra nerf. NOOOOOOOOOO :(

[GTG811x]

aluna nerf is GOOD. ranged heroes shouldn't have a BAT of less than 1.7. They already have the range advantage.

plus, aluna had a built in attack speed boost in her STUN making it easy to wipe out people mid game.

this is a good thing.

[GTG811x]

$2 doesn't think when implementing changes, don't you know? They vote on which ideas make most sense, then throw them out.

[IroN_ivH]

Yaaaay still no engineer fix woot

[DasStefan]

now im really pissed off

does s2 ever listens to the community?

first they took our old shop away and patched out the option to get it back via console

well they pissed me off but this is one new level, a 50 % discount for the shop and much people could not buy it because of a glitch that you did. I was like hmm.. ok they will fix it so i can buy it when its fixed. Today, update, i logged in, went into the shop and the old prices were back. Seriously, thats not cool s2, thats not cool.

[Cord]

Boo on Ra nerf. Too much.
Maybe you should give his AOE on Ashes to Ashes it's True Damage back if you're going to destroy his regen.

[MsPotatoHead]

Aluna was one of the most balanced heroes and they (slightly) nerfed her. zz

[foxmindedguy]

Wow, very nice patch all around. I have always known that you listen and apart from the new hero the changes you brought were to the right heroes. Do not know right now if they were in the right place but I can see that you guys always try to improve the game and the intention is definitely there :D

Good job, I am happy to have left LOL for you guys a long long time ago. Oh and btw can you still look into FA and her skeleton chasing mechanics. Right now with FA to use her skeletons, you can not animation cancel and it seems like using the skeletons to their full potential and low APM have positive correlation.

[iPodTouch]

huge nerf to ra LOLOL

[letsgonow]

game still crashing, just like last patch. help plz? k2 exception

[stepson]

New hero underpowered, but overall good patch :)

[Taiya]

no shop items except a retardedly overpriced name color and a crappy robot? zzz

[mrkoven]

love the damp buff

[AethGorr]

Fcking nowai! Why it was so necessary to nerf Amun-Ra? GJ, whining herd of noobs, your tears done things well again...

[V3n4toR]

is hon down? cant connect to chat server

[VeryniceGal]

Sorry, does anyone know how to purchase $10 account?

[Insanitarius]

Where do you see this? that it is almost every other hero in the game uses? I believe this nerf now makes her the slowest attack speed in the game as it makes her attack 0.58 attack / second

If you go to the heroes page there is noone that has that low of an attack speed when you hover your mouse over their portrait. Totally unnecessary.

the BAT (Base Attack Time) can be read about in the following threads:

Aluna nerf: Do not like
Dampeer buff: Good, but still not a viable pick
Empath buff: Meh, she's still not viable outside of pubs
FA buff: Awesome
Amun-Ra nerf: What the **** is this? Amun-Ra just became the new Tremble. He was mediocre before and now he's useless. Even LESS of a viable pick now.

[_BlackJack_]

wow nice nerf to ra :D now it will be more weak :balp:

[OOOOOOOOOOOO]

- Russian Stringtables updated

finally

[espezy]

Patcher is broken.. lets me download the patch then crashes. Over and over and over..

Tried contacting S2 but they won't respond..

Anyone have this problem and fixed it themselves?

[BrainF1ow]

Guys, can anyone upload new patch, please? Cuz i cant re-download full client with 60kb/sec internet... (And game is just crashing, when i am trying to download patch from it). Thanks :)

[YaBoi]

No :balp: update? S2, I am disappoint.

[SoGuH]

What about crash reports? How to update without one?

Need answers please.

[Testingrani]

Hello Revenant!


Item swaps between backpack slots no longer breaks channel
Good!

[jokerwar]

hello people can someone please s2game answer for when buying accounts are not to 10us are the same 30's and tried to buy with paypal but nothing happens please either someone answers the information need to know to buy it

[zapacitu42]

why when i want to buy a new account it says 30$ when it is at 10$

[faaith]

finally ra got nerfed.

[iScratch]

So, still the same error as the last 2 patches... K2 exception. Game crashes and patch will not update... I wonder why S2 is not fixing/responding/informing all of us of WTF is going on here. Why have an "Update Now" button in game if it doesn't work. lol.

[DreamCatcher]

No new Dryad Warden voice? :(

Also what's up with people asking about the Aluna nerf? Only thing I want to know is why it took so damn long...

[Makrura]

amun ra pwnt

[kingpiece]

I like the pic. Let's see if this item is another failure like the Energizer.

Edit: 550+550+700 =/= 1700, math ain't your strength, S2. At least in game it's showing the correct sum.

lol funny

[Sneaky]

Not sure if it was already mentioned, but those from Germany cannot watch the new hero Spotlight, due to music-licensing reasons. Might want to put a version online without music.

[kingpiece]

lmao ur so stupid, u try and make s2 look bad and come across as a stupid douche in the process. Lets break it down for you.

550 add another 550, thats 1100, then add 700, thats 1800 bud :) S2 did nothing wrong :) recheck ur math before u post :)

they changed it before u could see so technically hes not stupid, s2 is, and maybe also you because you checked the forums too late

[Yumekaze]

I dont understand the aluna nerf at all. She was a fine harass hero early game and a weak semi-carry late game. She was pretty balanced the whole game and maybe even a tad underpowered. Why would u nerf her?

Forsaken buff - sure why not. That ult is nothing impressive anyways, but I do think a 120 second timer is too much.

Empath - needed a buff. Still don't think she's where she needs to be but its a definite improvement. I'm liking this buff.

Dampeer - I don't mind the buff. I think on the whole it is good.

Ra - Why would you nerf him? Yea, he has solid lane presence early, but his stat gain is if I remember right the worst in the game. His armor is about the worst in the game as well, if not the worst. And his move speed is quite slow at 290. Ra has almost nothing going for him besides his regen. His stun is not easy to hit, and his second skill is weak. The slow on the second skill is too short and should be buffed. His stun should be something that can be directed. Like say you pick a spot and then the meteor will land in 1 second. That would be really cool and would require skill to hit it often - as opposed to being forced to face a certain direction and the stun always hitting the same distance away.

Ra imo needs some buffs to his versatility. Also, if you plan to nerf his regen, you should lower the cost of his skills by 25-50% to make up for his lower regen. I guess the question is why are you nerfing that skill? Is it so that he can be pushed out of the lane? If that is the case, then there should be no problem lowering the cost of his skills. You could even increase the cd on both by something like 2 seconds to compensate if u felt like u had to.

Also, Ra's ultimate is extremely weak. Not only is it one of the few ultimates that can be directly countered, but 2/3 of the time the ultimate is 100% useless. I really disagree w/ how you made his ultimate from the start and I think it needs a reword.

[wTFOWniNG]

I cant update my game ,,always download it from the start ,,can some1 help me plz ??

[FishDicks]

whoop whoop nice nerf

[Minervaz]

NICE<>

[thnts]

they nerfed aluna because it was too much viable in trilanes, nerfed ra because he could spam his ability just too muchin lane and in team fights, not like he can't now, but at least early game he won't just press random Q and W requiring at least some aim from the player side.

[Cord]

So, I like revenant so far, but does anyone else find it difficult to tell (graphically) when he's invisible and when he's not?

His model looks very similar to me in both invisible and visible states so it's tough to tell, sometimes, when his fade time has finished.

[lolb0t]

good to see ra nerf thak fuk

[KobeDaChamp]

[Fizzman]

[ArcticAngel]

This is Great@!:HarkonsBlade:

[Felshatner]

Glad to finally see an Empath buff. Can we get one to Balphagore now?

Bulwark is going to be too strong. The armor aura needs to be more like +2/-2 or +3/-3 until the Bulwark is built into a Daemonic.

[Heret1c]

Hm... I'm a bit nostalgic now with this Revenant guy...

http://magiccards.info/scans/en/al/21.jpg

Good old times.

quoted for truth

[Belmondo]

Havent found the info, does bulwark stack with itself and daemonic?

[Hyrus]

They nerfed Ra...Thank god I didn't buy his alt xD

[I_Eat_Indian]

Havent found the info, does bulwark stack with itself and daemonic?

Bulwark's aura doesn't stack with its own or Daemonic's. Just like Ring of Teacher's aura doesn't stack with Abyssal's or Nome's.

The new heroes are too overpowered, why does S2 always make the same freaking mistake.. Amun-ra, Emerald Warden and now this freaking Revenant are all way too good... Please remove those heroes or nerf them!

[dubs]

People need to stop saying that the new heroes are overpowered. Most are not, it's simply that no one knows how to properly counter them until after a bung of games against them. When Emerald Warden first came out, I thought maybe OP- but now, EW is easy to beat if you know what you're doing.

[FaceMelter00]

Noone of those were or are overpowered ,well i am not sure with revenant havent seen enough of him for now.
But lol RA was mediocre as he was released and now he is utter crap.
Warden also is nowhere near OP status , he fills the same role Flint and Haq do but he does it worse.
