I haven't been able to log-in for two nights now. Is there a problem with the servers or something, or is it only me?

it's on ppl end or something some ppl can do it after reseting router so maybe a new ip for server and your isp hasn't yet updated your dns something and some ppl can get it by started using the hon updater found in the programs folder.

Dunno if the new hero spotlight has been posted, but holy shit the Starcraft: New Gettysburg mission parody was so fucking amazing. I'll always love HoN for this video because I just totally didn't expect a Starcraft parody rofl.

Parody starts at 4:02

Umm it looks like some Warhammer 40k costumes to tie in with Space Marine being released?

Midas Alt looks like a Space Marine and Jere Alt looks like a Chaos Space Marine.

i'm willing to bet they created the tremble alt avatar with this parody in mind.

also, jere alt reminds me of meta knight. >_> color scheme somewhat matches it and he comes up all spiraly. this can't really just be me who sees the resemblance right? =(

I like getting the q leveled up because it's such a good nuke early game. Drop a level 3 comet on a squishy hero right at level 5 and they're hurting really bad, basically WHOEVER you're supporting with can clean up if you throw aurora right after it, and they're set up right. But.....that's just how my n00b self likes to play it. :-p

Q>W>E is the best build for andro most of the time

Q, W>Q>E is okay too if you think there's gonna be a bunch of teamfights or if you have a ridiculous amount of physical damage

The whole thing with not levelling Q past 1 was correct before the Andro changes, but I don't think it is anymore.

Back then, you were increasing the mana cost by 20 per level (I believe it is now 10), and the mana cost starts out significantly more expensive too, meaning you can't just keep it at level 1 and use it like wild in a trilane or while roaming.

Now you don't really lose a lot by leveling it up for the extra damage, the increase in mana cost is much less impactful.

You don't really need levels past 11 on Andro tbh once you max aurora and aura

The thing is.... W does more damage, almost always. Maxing Q gives a bit more burst damage but the - armor from aurora is really strong - and Q still does like 100 damage at level 1. The bigger change here was the decrease in CD on aurora at all levels - it used to reduce the cd to 14 at level 4, which was a pretty big step in dps/counter-juking.

Level 4 aurora is 115 magic damage, -5 armor, -20% base damage. It has a huge impact on teamfights early on and andro can wind up being low leveled for forever. Maxing Q on the other hand gives a flat +225 magic damage to a single target. If someone hits 3 targets with aurora they're already doing more damage than they would with a maxed stun - and this is before taking into account the -armor/base damage/vision effects. Against 2 targets the damage is only about 100 more overall and there is a net -10 armor effect, -20% base damage for both.

It's not that maxing q is always bad, it's just that it's almost never bad to max w.

I've suffered intermittent problems logging in for the last few days, but the issue resolved on its own for me. If yours hasn't, you should read this: http://forums.heroesofnewerth.com/showthread.php?t=331204

I actually thought it was more like 60/70/80/90 damage. I'm a big aurora fan, maybe I'll switch back to the "old" way.

Is andromeda vengeful, and aurora wave?

If that's the case - I always max out her stun first. It's a bit like being given the option to do 60% damage to two targets, or 100% damage to one. I'd always always always go for the second. Making damn sure someone dies is far more important than doing a slight amount more damage, situationally, to more than one.

Put it this way, which of these skills would you rather have: 300 damage to 1 target, 100 damage to 3.

How much do you have to increase the second skill's damage, before it's worthwhile? A hero on 1 hp, is still doing their full dps. a dead hero does none.
For every battle honour a thousand heroes die alone, unsung, and unremembered.

well in dota u'd usually max missile first due both to the fact that more points in missile increases stun duration and the scream nerf

for hon whether you max comet or aurora should mainly depend on how the game is going and your role, its completely different if you're roaming, in a trilane, or in a dual lane, and also different depending on how the game is going, both are equally valid imo (tho maxing aura before maxing both of the others is probably stupid)
