Yes, you are now perfectly qualified to make these assessments.  Come on people!  Use some judgment and give it at least a month before taking up your pitch forks and torches.  I see so few rational level headed people on these forums, I think you could take everyone else and mush them together to form one of the new Demigods.

If I was more clever I'd even write up a bio and make powers for this new shambling creature, but for now I'll just call him Overreactasaurus.  Yeah, he'd be a dinosaur.  We need more of those around here.  The catapultasauri can't cut it on their own.

Funny, because me (Regulus) + Sedna + QoT just owned that exact same team you described. They had two human UBs though. I got a 7-kill streak, the sedna got a 12-kill streak. The QoT didn't kill anybody, but she used her shield on us a whole lot.

Spit can be countered with healing potions and debuff removals.  Fireball can not.

Also you can't stack spits.  With -cooldown items and flag TB does fireball every 3 seconds.

You can't stack spits.

Sighhh.  Getting annoyed at people who don't know how to play saying things are imba.

But yes, spit is great early on for telling people to gtfo away flags, or adding to your dps in a fight.

My only complaint is watching myself die slowly, hehe.

I think it's perfect and should just have less of a duration for less frustration factor.

Most of them who complain never heard of potions:> Stop crying and learn to handle all heroes.

The only op thing about spit is that with putrid flow it beats uproot for the best fire and forget tower killing spell. If you want op abilties look no further then Bite.

Its not that people don't know of potions. I play UB only so far and i feel i am decent. I can take 3 DG's either in 3 1v1 or a 2v1 1v1 if they are also decent. Most DG tend to usetheir potions too quick. I go in, grasp, and let ooze and melee bring them to about half. Then they heal, i attack more and end witgha spit when they are near 1500. If they run they are dead anyway.

And to people who say Oak and Sedna aren't annoying, i feel oak, if skilled and armored properly kicks major ass. I played a game yesterday. We raped their whole team except for one Oak player who had major DPS. He killed our whole team and then raped our Citadel solo. And i mean raped. It was dead in less time than it takes to respawn, but he did have some giants with him lol

a good beast early game, will harrass people with spit al the time, this is deadly of lower hp target early game, especially spit lvl 2-3

considerign ub is suposed to be a melee fighter, its kinda stupid that spit is so destructive early game

thse peopel who think they now somwthign abotu the game says pot, buy pot, but they fail to reallize the 1-2 spit = 1 pot needed early game

its oblivious their buff for early spit was bad, its was already strong before

but its kinda hard to balance in a way, if they nerf spit, they might have to buff his melee abilities a bit, or soem base stats

I don't really see how you can say that the UB is "supposed to be" a melee fighter. His high-speed and low-hp is obviously designed for a quick-strike harrasment play-style.

Complaining about Beast's DoT is like complaining about Regulus' snipe, or TB's fireball that will track you across the map even if you teleport. A very simple way to undo Beast's poison, if you're low on health, is to teleport back to your healing crystal.

Aside from that, all I see in this post is people bragging how they mastered playing the Beast and how they feel uber against newbs. Perhaps (this goes to the original poster) you should put as much time into TB as you have into UB, and only then compare the two classes. From my personal experience, a properly played TB will not every let you touch him as UB. He will freeze you, he will burn you, he will shoot you from the distance. A well played and specced out TB can take on any UB, hands down.

I've played the game a lot and against good players over the course of the game UB can be killed with proper strategy.

I played a few Pantheon matches yesterday with the Beast and it was just entirely too easy.  I used spit and chased them down until close to towers then retreated.  I got the Diseased claws I and Inner Beast until I could get Foul Grasp.  Once I got Foul Grasp it was over.  Multiple times I would spit then melee and they would start to use a portal scroll and I would save Foul Grasp to interrupt it, then they died.  I had 12+ kills in a slaughter match with no deaths.  The very last boots + Crit Gloves and Crit Armor with the HoL.  When in trouble the speed buff from the boots kicks in and I run away at a blistering pace and just pop HoL.  Oh and spit is amazing against towers, maybe better than QoT's ability since the cooldown is shorter.

Odds are that the people I was playing against didn't know what they were doing, but it was still ridiculously easy.

If I were to change anything I would lower spit's dot and raise his melee damage to compensate.  That way he has to stay in melee.  Maybe reduce the range on Spit?  I dunno I'm probably not good enough to know.

Just my 2 cents.

nerf spit

Again, its not unbalanced at all, its the player.  I think its very funny how many posts include "I played a few games" or something to that effect.  I have seen a variety of demigods own...its how you play.....play 50 games then have an opinion..........

Spit's fine

Nerf complaints.
