Balancing factions

Hi! I would like to write something about factions and their balancing.

Skaven are just ok, they are well balanced and nothing needs to be changed about them.

Chaos is mostly ok too. The new Chaos Warrior with Shield feels also well balanced. The only thing that needs an overhaul is Blightstormers and their ability to cast storms through walls or from miles away and without the line of sight with the players (they should not target bots).

Beastmen need a lot of work to be balanced and fun to fight. First of all bots should not ignore standards and Ungor Archers. Ungor Archers should have limited ammo. Standard Bearers should not spawn behind heroes so players don’t have to keep running backward to destroy their standards. Mino should be little nerfed to match the power of other monsters. And we should be able to disable them in all maps except of Dark Omens without disabling the whole Winds of Magic DLC - nonexistence of this option is why this dlc has such a poor rating.

Agree on most.

But I think Ungor archers should have unlimited ammo.

Minotaur being stronger than the rest of monsters is funny to me. Many times we scream “Mino!”, like in fear. Is amazing. Maybe balancing him, but only if we have some new powerful monster (Dragon Ogre maybe).

About disabling… I think we should just need to have them in certain maps, instead of in MANY maps.

Like we talked in other post.

Why?

They are not so dangerous. They are annoying, but that is the fun, getting rid of them when you get tired.

BUT when the bots don’t kill them… THAT is really annyoing.

Is my opinion.

I ignored them once and in a few minutes there were like 100 of them on the horizon and I was killed with all my bots in seconds.
Yeah, bots ignoring archers and standards is the main reason why I usually do not like playing with beastmen.

100 ?

O_O

Never saw so many, it was probably Cataclysm, I guess.

No, just Legend. If you play with bots, do not attack them and just progress forward, there will be many soon. Try it.
