Reply to Need help with Erobus in Demigod Strategies Demigod Forums

If you feel you've spammed your skills and haven't put a dent in the opponent, you'll most likely need to check your gear/level/health/mana and what not. I've had some successful games with Erebus where batswarm and bit have crippled opponents. Not that this is a part of the build but I do recall grabbing a point in the mist skill merely because I wanted to give additional time to my cooldowns to pop out, and in most cases the ai/players will usually move out of the mis

Help with starting out in MP in Demigod Strategies Demigod Forums

So singleplayer is a joke obviously but in MP I seem to have the hardest time getting started with my DG. I seem to always lag a few levels behind and seem to be harassed a lot more then what happens to the opposing team. It seems even at level one others are able to get to level 4 before me and the gap keeps going. I try hitting creeps early on to farm levels but the harassment from other DGs really hampers me. I've tried using different DGs, such as Erebus, UB, Oak, and soon Rook. I

Yeah this guy tops me for being the asshat here. SO I'll be very short. [quote] Well the thing is that each race's Tech Tree is different as far as economy/military go. Some races get better ships right off the bat while others economize easier and more efficiently (like TECs getting their refineries and what have you). Irrelevant, you're either rushing or teching. Never doing both at the same time. [/quote] No one said anything about doing both at th

[quote] like TECs getting their refineries and what have you). Vasari get refineries, its tradeports your thinking of (probably). [/quote] Im pretty sure during my first playthrough I saw TECs having the option in their economy tree having the refineries in their 3rd or 4th tier I think. I oculd be wrong. But not trade ports Im pretty sure every race has though for increased money. There's supposed to be a specific structure they can build one per

Well the thing is that each race's Tech Tree is different as far as economy/military go. Some races get better ships right off the bat while others economize easier and more efficiently (like TECs getting their refineries and what have you). I'm sure that in each race, each player finds a common point to get into their own rut of how they like to do things and what makes more sense to them. Going either way makes sense to me, sure, but either way it's quite hard. It's not a question of

Fine-touching the Advent (Please help!) in Strategy Sins Forums

So I've been playing the Advent, by far my favorite race and have a couple questions to fine-tune playing style. My problem is starting out, really and whether to go with an economical standpoint or military standpoint. Such as if I need to continuously expand because every map I swear, I never am able to harvest enough crystal to make fine decisions on the tech trees. In one instance, I like going with the Hostility Tree to get some heavy fighters early on instead of wasting t

Reply to Super Newbie Question: Survival in Sins of a Solar Empire Sins Forums

As the above users say, you need resources to support your military. With advent, these "buffs" in their research trees require very little to get started. I usually indulge in the extracting for extra metal/crystal, as I try to expand fast to some sort of chokehold to get myself going. Then it's one planet at a time. Also, getting the trade structure isn't hard in their research tree (some 3 or 4 Temples of Harmony). This, paired with a couple planets, can be a vast resource for your i

Why does my fleet keep "regrouping" during combat? in Strategy Sins Forums

I know it seems like a smart plan. However, if I've JUST grouped everyone up, gotten battle formations ready to invade a new planet (I was raiding pirates, and I had more guns than they did), why is it that when my ENTIRE fleet arrives at the SAME time, after 5 seconds of combat that wussy out and start retreating? It's wasting valuable time and it's killing my ships. Is my grouping wrong if I have group move enable for everyone to arrive at once? Do they need ot be tightly packed together? What
