i realize there is an option to make hp bars largers in option, but i moved it around and nothing happened. mb this feature still being finished?
but yeah. the tower hp bar is way to small to be able to last hit it. pretty damn annoying. the creep ones are a good size but the tower ones so small that u cant tell individual hits are like 1 pixel each or less and to get ur own last hit in u gotta let it drain to like .5 pixel then hit which is retarded

im not bad i hold the towers destroyed record in dxd
the thing is too small for ur brain to process how much each creep is taking off it compare to ur hero since were dealing with pixels
obviously ur gonna be able to do it if u have a huge monitor, massive damage, or get lucky
but for the rest of us playing on laptops make that **** bigger so its playable

It'd be nice to see a bigger HP bar for the tower. But for now HoN needs to fix other things first.

10002nd thread about it but you're right
They should definitely be bigger.

This.
Why must people try to be smart and give solutions to this? It's a beta, if a lot of people don't like, which I know a lot don't, they can change it, or AT LEAST give an option. So there's no excuse for this not to be changed. Of course, we can use a temporary alternative but we want change.

If you're good at lemmings, you can see the smallest pixel differences thus making it a simple task.
I'm more for clicking the tower and viewing its HP. That and, a larger HP bar obscures more of the screen. But of course, an option to make them bigger would probably be better for the majority.

I think their size is correct. Maybe it has to do with your graphic resolution...

I d wish it to be a tad bigger, i don't have much problem denying on my 24 inch but on laptop/smaller monitor i can imagine it would be harder.

Because if there's an option already(highlighting the tower and looking at it's hp number wise), why change it? I can tell just fine, I'm blind and have a 17 inch monitor so don't complain.

it has nothing to do with the bar size. The problem is that damage you do varies, and you apparantly dont have a good guess on how much damage you are going to do. People do it without a problem. Like the rest of the game, it is a learning curve and instinct. Before you know it people are going to want the target button to change color if it will kill them on an attack so they know whether or not to cast it, or a circle around themselves so they know the range of their abilities. The game isn't there to hold your hand.

c'mon don't exaggerate things.
or do you think dota is for children because the building bars are bigger than unit bars?
it's not a big deal to make it an ooption to change the size.
they added scaling, so why don't adding sizing?!
