| Author | Darkness Demon Consume Corpse Modified? |
|---|
I was wondering if there has been a recent modification in the Consume Corpse ability of Darkness Demons such that the ability now only works on the corpses of the player's own troops, but no longer works on enemy corpses?
I noticed that during my last combat, I was only able to "eat" my own corpses and not the corpses of my opponent...
I was hoping that this was just a random bug during my combat...however, I am thinking/worried this may represent a recent "update"... |
Agreed, thought it was a bug but now I tried it again :

Its not possible anymore.. |
| Seriously? There goes my strategy against unholy necros :s. One plus point, enemy DD won't be able to eat your corpses before you have the chance. |
| Good! |
aaahrg
yes, it is true
this is the worst change ever (for me)
please just remove 20 fiends again... but not this... please |
step in right direction to nerf DD, it had infinite mana with that
still not enough,reduce troop count |
| nerf DD is ok but this way is not logical, there are other ways :P |
Yes, it has been nerfed to now apply only to your own troops.

yep, so it is real, not so good for DD, now they must careful against unholy.
but i my opinion they should make 1 mana= 100hp (now 50) and never let hero to consume if his mana pool is full |
Lets be honest lol... That skill was way beyond overpowered.
You could just sit, cast hundreds of Mass magic, consume corpse, and repeat.
And it countered Unholy necros too hard imho. |
| after DD were introduces the were realy OP. but now its just nerfing, and nerfing... Creature count and tempresses ability to shoot while controling enemy nerf wasn't enought? IMO this nerf is too big. DD was weak against elves, chaos DE, clasic necros, BW without last nerf but now its realy ridiculous. What next? I believe vermins will use their ability only once :) |
| yes and maybe reduce fiend speed to three, just like the leaping pirates |
I hope it will be changed to at least this
"Demons may EAT corpes of living creatures only"
That way unholy necros would be saved and DD would not be drowned and so underpovered then. Couse gargoiles, elementals, golems and undead aren't tasty:) would make sence |
Okay...thanks everybody for the confirmation that indeed this represents an admin update of the Consume Corpse ability and not just a random or temporary bug.
I have not really had time to fully contemplate the "update" beyond any initial reaction of some disappointment and frustration.
But I am just a casual player anyway and don't know (and wouldn't really be qualified to say) if changing the Consume Corpse ability in this way represents a "good" way to offer any further faction balance or not.
I do like Velniukstis's idea of having the Consume Corpse ability to be used only on consumption of living corpses. This seems to make the most sense to me anyway. I was initially surprised when DD was released that I was able to eat elemental and necro corpses to begin with.
Does anyone know yet if after the update, can DD eat allied corpses during group battles? |
What next? I believe vermins will use their ability only once :)
yes that will come soon no doubt, may be once or some limited turn interval like once in every three turns or etc(similar some creature ability in H6)
"Demons may EAT corpse of living creatures only"this was asked many players when DD was introduced .com and .ru and also after unholy release, but admin do not respond it if i remember, now they come with big nerf |
I am sure this will affect DD a lot in this PT.
No more unlimited mass dis ray. |
Very good move by admins.
All Necromancers rejoice!! |
| Ability to eat other heroes units was as desruptive to balance than barbarian magic shield. Good it's gone. |
