Helps with max range Pharaoh ulti for sure
Pretty neat feature, will definitely help new players get into the game
Only "problem" I have with them is how they look, imo the indicators are way too flashy or something like that, would prefer just a basic circle or a line as the indicators.
I really like the one used with Aluna's ultimate.
The rest is no need i think
i think its a very good addition. People who wanted range indicators got it using mods anyway. The indicators are very useful like devo hook and magmus stun etc.
I dont think it dumbs down the game.. it just makes it more visual. Won't really make a difference for experienced players, but will help people learn heros faster.
As a casual player and low ranked I like it a lot. The range indicator for PK can be nice on occasion or when playing heroes I don't know as well the cast ranges are helpful. I don't find them distracting at all when I play.
Its awesome for newer players, myself at first instantly turned it off because I hate extra things on my screen.. but when I saw some people using it on their streams its decently useful. It doesn't really make the game "easier" because I found all of these things to be pretty straight forward. If you need these things to succeed your gonna get crushed at a high level anyways so its not a big deal to the competitive scene at all. Its just a good way to make a very hard game easier for newer players to get the idea of how skills work.
I've been using it today and it got a bit to be used to, I'm gonna leave it on for a few more days, but I don't think it makes the game easier at a high level in anyway. Things like the range of your skills, the area of its effects are things all high level players should know by experience anyways.

Is it weird that I almost ignore them? I have them still on but it hasn't really changed my play or anything.
I find it very usefull for some warding scenarios where my hero would turn around and go for another path if I'm not in range. Now I can see that I am actually in range, so my hero wont stupidly turn around because I'm 5 yards too far away to place the ward ^_^
I think it makes a huge difference if you're playing a Dark Lady or Chronos and you want to leap right away at max range, instead of walking the few yards extra to leap there,!!
You can still see if you're in range with the color of the target area (green/yellow), so i dont really see the point with these circles. Even the cursor changes when you pass the maxrange of the spell you're trying to use.Originally Posted by Chicoo
tbh, I used addons for this so................................................ ..........................
Anyone know how to turn them off?
NO!
Game should either be played on pipe organ, steering wheel or the combination of both.
S2 please disable every other input device.
On a serious note:
Got mad when i couldn't hit my fissures properly with behe so i switched them off.

This is known, and a fix is being worked on. No ETA yet.
Amun Ra's Path of Destruction is misleading as well. Those darn fixed range affector spawn abilities!

I just watched Moon's stream and he kept abusing it for making max range blinks with Portal Key.
LOL
IIRC you could do the same before simply by going until the cursor turned yellow signifying out of range.
Hon doesn't short change your range if you cast at a point over the max limit.
Exactly what I wanted to say..
Moon ported to a tower and would use the range circle to find out when he could jump the target at absolute max range (so he didn't waste unnecessary time walking). Having that info always at hand is just stupid and detrimental to the skill cap on Blink.
The one time he didn't do it, he failed and jumped too short on a Venge gank and they ended up looking like fools because she survived.
Clearly working as intended.
