From writing other books: I know at least 1 of the writers has wrote several DnD books

As for novels/books i think it is good that they don't accept anything.
I dunno how do they chose their writers.. I think there's two thing what matters: how well-known u are (this matters less than the next), and how much did you pay for them.

And i nkow they'll never listen to ppl like me who play very rarely on bnet, but i think some changes they made are againist rational.
for example faerie fire:
it used to give -5 armor, that means you do around 23% more dmg on it (i think it is somewhere near that value - it depends on how many armor it had before)
Let's see slow: it decreases 25% attack speed. That means you have that much advantage.
23% vs 25% is the ratio. An wich one is the more mana expensive??? the faeire fire. Not to mention that slow even decreases their speed to the minimum, making them easy targets to AOE spells (humans have a lot) and making them unable to run away, easy to break their line and so on. What faerie fire gives is a very little vision, but it is the most rarely to reveal anything with it coz:
first it has a very low LOS. second if you faerie fire a unit you will probably going to kill it coz it has less defense.
And the most logic thing i've ever seen is to make this unused, underpowered spell more unusable. NE magic is sh!t enough without this reduction.

I could write pages about issues like that, but i don't want anyone to read page-long comments :)

PyrodactylI totally agree with Mecheon. 1.18 need to be a ballance if they add more neutral heroes they're going to need a new tavern-like building coz there won't be enough space


but maybe in the next patch you can revive netrual heros at your altar and not the tavern.that would help and allow more heros

^not that thats ever gonna become true to be honest thats probably got as much chance as becoming real as i have of working for blizzard....a tiny chance

ummmm...
i think you can revive neutral heroes at your own altar... since TFT was released.
#20
sorry I'm a retired TFT player (well not retired.I just don't play it very often.and i've never bothere trying that out) :(
#21
You CAN revive taverns at altars...

But i agree with mecheon, besides, the racews are hard enough to balance now... Undead and humans are too strong, orc? meh... NE NEEDS BUFFS! And finally, rifles-sorc all the time is pissing me off... -_-
#22
I agree. Balancing is all that we'll see from now on, and perhaps a new neutral hero (pandaren perhaps), if we're lucky in a far-away patch, although giving more goblins for hire at the lab would be nice...
