lololol is right, he's always been right. He's one of the most knowledgeable people about Starcraft on these forums. I've never heard of this SevGaming guy, but he seems like nothing more than a petty troll. Ban?

I posted

1 Spore = -1 to effective armor, NOT +1 damage
-1 to armor = +2 damage for Scouts, Wraiths, Goliaths
-1 to armor = +1 damage for all other units

Then you started bitching about how it was wrong, and it adds +1 damage... even though I state right there in plain English that -1 armor = +1 damage.

You're basically trying to say my O is different from your O because I drew mine clockwise and you drew yours counter-clockwise. I mean really kid. You're well-learned in stupidity.

And yet the StarCraft game code says he's wrong. Perhaps you should ban all Blizzard employees from these forums too, since they've been bested by the almighty Preteen with the ePeen.

Yea but Blizzard Employees demonstrate a level of maturity that seems far beyond your grasp, "kid."

You contributed exactly 0 to the topic, what you posted was already in the topic and it did not explain the interaction of spores with spells, so it was at the least incomplete and repeated multiple times already.

It slows the attack cooldown of the affected unit.
It increases the damage taken, by 1 for each spore, from each source of attack and some spells... each tick of Psi Storm and Irradiate, as well as Yamato Gun.
It does NOT hit cloacked units if they are not detected, no matter how close to the current target they are, but once affected by spores the units become visible.


Errr... listen, it does NOT increase the damage taken. It REDUCES THE ARMOR/SHIELD. This DOES matter because:
1. If you acid-spore mutas, and you're attacking them with hydras (that only deal 50%) then you will need TWO spores to do ONE extra damage.
2. Likewise, when you're attacking spored Carrierrs with scouts, they will do TWO extra damage per hit, because they fire 2x14 damage.
Therefore, it does not increase damage by 1 spore. It lowers armor/shield by 1.

And as far as I know, psi storm doesn't take armor into consideration, so I really doubt it will deal more damage. But I'll try this and get back to you.


oooooooooohhhhh....
Peace and love, for ever.

In other words, my incomplete, but accurate post... is of less value to this thread than your larger, but incorrect post.

You never cease to amaze, do you?

Again, until you can explain to me why your word is correct, and the actual game code is wrong, then I'm afraid anyone that's not a complete dumbass would believe the game.

You said you modded BW... so you should have no problem at all doing that. But I'd put my money on you throwing in another generic "stfu, i'm right and you're wrong" comment like you've done the last 3-4 times I've asked you to back up these facts you claim to know.

In the end it doesn't matter how many morons post their "Lololol is right" remarks, because in the end it's still your word against the programming of the game.

Also, Def Matrix is unaffected by unit armor and is depleted faster on a unit with spores even when the unit has 255 base armor and the attack is a lot less, so the spore modifier is definitely on the damage end and there is no actual armor/shield modifier, which would also heavily increase the damage on attacks which deplete the shield, so each shield point regen in battle will result in an actuall loss of up to 8 hp, because the leftover damage will be higher than the initial attack and this IS how it's coded and game mechanics confirm that, while you still post crap and if anyone's word is against the game mechanics it's yours.

My post was and still is completely accurate and backed up by the actual game mechanics, while you posted something that is simply false and with some conversions could be regarded as incomplete, because you posted the complete basics, which were covered multiple times already. Repeating the same thing over and over is considered spam.

It's in the fucking manual.. why are u fags discussing this?

Why is this guy not banned? I got banned for a week for making a "Just Fucking Google It" thread and this dude asks a stupid fucking question like this and you idiots start arguing with eachother.



I really wanted a bigger opponent, like Nate Marquardt, or King Neptune, or Zeus, or Zeus and Fedor, or Fedor on Zeus's shoulders, and they can both punch but only Zeus can kick.
