[Balance] When hitting a demigod and performing action

from Demigod Forums

I am not sure about this one.. but i am asking the community to join in on this one.  I've noticed that I have thrown a few spells (as TB) to the enemy with success.. however, I am assuming that TB will keep hitting my targetted demigod.  However, TB just reverts to hitting the local minions around him just barely allowing the enemy demigod to escape.  Have any of you seen this?

They "unlock" from your intended target all the time. Its super annoying when chasing down a DG.

Yes, you have to keep re-assigning the target.

It is very annoying when you're chasing, you can't cast anything unless you can make up the difference since you stop to cast and then don't start to move until you click again.

Yeah Annatar.. that is exactly what is happening.. and it can be even more aggravating when there is a pile of minions all over and you are trying to click on the running demigod.

Yes, whenever you use an ability your demigod will stop in his tracks once it is completed. You then need to tell him to attack that demigod again. Its not that they start attacking the minions, it is just them defending themselves whenever something hositle is nearby since they are "idle".

In other words Demigods can only be told and remember one thing at a time. They don't upon completion revert to a previous command. Attack a Demigod and Use an ability are two different commands. Hope this made sense. :grin:

Hold down Control when targeting the enemy Demigod then you won't target a minion or creep.

They need to make it a toggle...I think it's pretty rare I would want to shoot a creep/minion with my 1300pt Fireball.

It's also dumb when you want to use the wand of speed, and then your DG stops right after you cast it. You think he would keep on running right? I mean it would make sense...

Yeah but that creep/minion isn't gonna mess you with anymore is he. x_x

But I agree a toggle would be nice, don't think I have ever actaully wanted to target a minion or creep. Just move close and let autoattack go crazy works much better. ie. Minion could die before you get there, so you stop. Or AoE the little bastards which again isn't targeting them.

Definitely. It is very annoying when they just "unlock" from the Demigod... especially when you almost have them.
