Coastal Conflict: Maiev vs. Illidan

the lil (something) in between is the problem. I guess we can just give the Paladin and the Blademaster 'real' names from the random names, the biggest problen is that furbolg... what do you call a furbolg!?

guess we could always call him 'fuzzie' :gsmile:

Furbolg leader:yeah lol, fuzzy the bear:D ...
Call um ugslutsh or somthing... Furoroth.... :D
Troll leader: easy...
Human leader: Argorn the deciever...?
Orc name: Juggoroth the sly?

lol yeah I love the name Ugslutch... (u have issues with them capitols man.. u always forget them..)
i think Argorn is too close to Aragorn... so thats a no
i think 'easy...' is a really sucky name for a troll ;)
and Juggoroth... well... we'll just take one the names from the random names of a paladin bm and shadowhunter i guess.. i think that would give a nice 'real' touch to it.

now we need some town names!

no, i want custom names... that gives a ''CC'' touch with it... no.. definatly custom names, how hard cud it be?

Troll Camp's name:Jez Kreei
Orc Camp:Stormfist camp
Druid Camp:The Holy Forest

Furbolg Name:Fuzzie!
Troll Dez D'
Blaemaster:Jubey
Paladin:Lord Arius

I think i have a nice idea for the troll leader's name: "The 2nd Zul'jin" :P
"Townsville" is not a name that really fits in this AoS, the name is quite funny, but the map is more serious, isn't it?
I dont really think that these "towns" should be called towns, maybe encampments and expeditions, the human "town" should be called "Human Expedition"(hope im spelling it right...) and the orc "town" should be called "Orcish Camp", dont you think?
You can change the other 2 "town"'s names into "Troll Village" and "Druid Spellgrounds"(sounds kinda strange, but if you replace the furblog leader with a druid, and the soldiers of the camp with druids and treants it should sound good ^^).
Well, im out'a ideas for now and i really hope that this map will be a success :D

me 2:D

well, that sounds kinda cool, change it into expedition. I'll consider it...
And for the druid/furbolg camp: it will stay a druid/furbolg camp.. i luv furbolgs:ggani:

the names we use now are just working names... in the final version all towns will have a name, and u'll get announcements like
'-player- has claimed lordship over townsville' or something.
or maybe human expedition or somethjing like that is clearer... i dunno..

those where some great names for the heros by the way... i guess we'll take em :D

thx for the feedback everyone!!

keep it coming.

Name him an indian-stlye name, like Stoutclaw the Wise or Grimpaw the Patient. Furbolgs have a shamanistic society (or so it is implied).

i really like Dez D' and Lord Arius.. we'll probubly use those!

as for using names for the camps.. i'm getting doubts... i dont think its clear enough. i think maybe just Druid Fields, Orc Camp, Troll -place-, Human expedition. That'd be much clearer.

EDIT: goddamn this thread is on fire... every time i post something a new post from someone else has been posted so i have to post again...

i think we'll stick with vog0rs name for 'the bolg', but thats up to him...

New hero concept: Ghost Ranger!

The Ghost of a Fallen Night Elf ranger, barely able to cling on to reality, often shifting in and out of reality.

Side: Maiev
Primary attribute: Agility
Secondary attribute: intel.
Type: Intel. assasin.

Skills:
Distract: gives a chance to miss. Increases chance with every level.

Dark Arrow: autocast, enhances the Ghost Rangers arrows with dark magics, increasing the attack damage.

Phase shift: temoraly shifts into non existance. Mana cost and cooldown decreases every level.

(ultimate) Ghost walk: Allows the dark ranger to cummunicate with the ghost world, transforming into and out of the ghost form, at will. Decreases mana cost every level.

what would you think of this hero idea for maiev?

Soul Revenant.
attribute: Intelligence
Function: supportive.
-Mana Drain: drain enemies mana
-Mana Share: give an allied hero mana
-Mana Cylinder: (passive) increase mana capicity
-Release: rapidly combusts the Soul Revenants mana, damaging units and buildings around the Soul Revenant.

the hero will have very low HP and armor.

the idea of this hero is that you really have to fight to get to lvl 6, wich is hard cuz in first lvl hes like a free pwn, and then when you finally do reach lvl 6, sap all you enemies and get ur mana to 100%, get into position and WHAM! deal great amounts of damage to everyone around you in a short timeframe.

we really need backup on this cuz i wanna give him a nuke instead of the mana share but vig0r wants to stick with the mana share idea...

vig0r fully made this hero up, and pretty much all of the Temptress and half of the Ghost Ranger as well... so i wanna post 1 of mine as well =)

Naga Ranger:
Attribute: Agility
Function: ranged assasin.

-Summon Giant Sea Turtle: Summon a Giant Sea turtle with a spiked shell to tank for you
-pierce: fires a magic arrow that shoots though units, damaging units in a row.
-Trueshot aura: increases the damage of all ranged units around the Ranger.
-Farshot Arrows: (autocast) fire a lighter arrow that has a further range at the cost of mana

EDIT: please comment our work... we want to make this game as userfriendly and fun to play as possible, with good inspired heros, sweet items and leet gameplay. Please comment our hero ideas, everyting that pops in your mind might just help, or inspire us to de something diffrently. This thread allready got over 300 vieuws, yet not really good feedback on our hero ideas... great help on the town and hero names though, props to that.

Great hero ideas guys, I especially like the Soul Revenants concept, very original and most importantly - useful! From the sounds of things, Maiev's forces seem to be ranged dominated, does she have any new melee units? The ghost ranger seems familiar somehow...

What's the difference between phase shift and ghost walk?

ghost walk will make you etherial untill you switch back to normal form, phase shift will erase you from existence, unable to attack but being able to move through ovjects, just like a ghost.

but i'm not sure about the big diffrence either... vir0r i'll know...
and ok, then we'll keep the soulguy as he is :ggani:
maievs forces witll have 4 mellee and 5 ranged, allthough one of them will have short range, and Illidan will have 5 mellee and 4 ranged, so it's not that bigga diffrence.

we try to make a good balance in spellcaster/assasin/tank relations. we dont have an overkill of units, we try to make 9 extremely usefull units.

we have some concepts that are nearly completed after these, some will be posted but i believe vig0r wants to leave in a few secrets... (dunt get why he posted the temptress then... thats like our most original so far.. together with the Soulrevenant...)

Why not make ghost form randomly pull ghosts out of the spirit realm? It'd make it better than just being ethereal (which is good, but not good enough for Ultimate), and it makes sense.
