Proculite, the Sharp-Shooter

Hey, sofa! I'm here to critique your Sniper remake now :P.


The first skill is okay, except that it has a really long cooldown. Should probably make it a toggle ability so you can reposition, and if you do, then you could reduce the damage bonus. What you make of this suggestion depends on the direction you want to go with this ability.

Sharpeye's Rifle is a pretty bad ability, in my opinion, as it remains impractical until you reach higher levels. I mean, 1 level of the old Take Aim is pretty much better in all ways than level 1 Sharpeye's Rifle, because you can't hit **** if you don't have much levels in Increase Accuracy. Basically, you're gonna pretty much be in vision all the time while shooting and still not be hitting for much damage, if at all, making you not very useful. Suggestion: make the miss chance for the different distances be 15/35/65/95%. EDIT: OR change the miss-chance to a damage reduction.

Rapid Fire and Increased Accuracy... Not sure what to say about this. I'm okay with Increased Accuracy, but Rapid Fire is totally not Sniper-like. Maybe the active makes the hero's bullets knock back when within 675 range, and it can share a different cooldown from Increased Accuracy.

Skill shot ultimate that reduces armour? Okay.






I just wanna say that I was working on a Sniper remake myself that was similar to this one. The first ability is really similar to what I had concocted back then, just that the range increase was also attached to the ability in my version, and the ultimate stunned instead of reducing armour.

I kinna have a vision of a new kind of Sniper who looks like your idea.

Correct me if I'm wrong, after level to 25, and using all your skill,
we will arrive at you having 200 IAS while having 55% hitting chance in 1500 - 3000 range attacks for 9 seconds while having 6 armor loss. Not bad I would says. ;-)


One thing though, Rapid Fire at Level 4 is actually very OP if the player doesn't increase their Sharpeye Rifle and Increased Accuracy.
Imagine 300 IAS for 9 seconds. That's like having 5 hyperstones every 25 seconds.


Hmmm... here's a suggestion, instead of miss chance, how about if you slow down the attack speed during take aim because that's how a real sniper would be doing, they aim for a long time and kill their enemy with one important shot.

Also, I found that you have 5 skills with 4 levels, if we have 10 skill points to level up in a hero, it wont be possible to have 5 skills. :-)
or am I missing something here?

Overall, good job creating a hero. I'm sure you spend much effort in this.

im sorry but this is basically the hero that i have put forward already.

please get original ideas the first and second skill are nearly identical to RED and BLUE.

not to sound in anyway *****y but just try and look at the ideas already supplied before posting so it doesnt look like you have copied.

b](Q)NESTING (Active, Target Tree or Ground)[/b]

icon

Blue climbs the nearest tree or makes a camouflaged nest on the ground facing in a single direction while in a NEST, BLUE gains an extra 800 right click range but his attack speed is reduced to 3. While in a NEST RED and BLE are hidden even when attacking (unless revealed). Nests only disappear when the maximum number is expended. When exiting or entering a nest channel time is applied.

Number of nests: Cooldown: Fade time:

1/2/4/5 60 at all levels 4/3/2/1

*nest vision is only within a certain cone starting at 50 at the nests location and increasing by 100 width and 200 length. For a final length of 2000 by 1000.

Proculite lies down on the ground. While he is lying down, his vision behind him drastically reduces, and his vision in a 90 degree cone in front of him great increases*. The vision in front of him is unobstructed. Proculite also gains bonus damage if he is not visible to the enemy team. Movement of any kind as well as using items will break Take Aim, but Proculite may cast spells. Take Aim breaks invisibility of any kind.

Vision behind: 150
Vision in front during daytime: 2000/2200/2400/2600
Vision in front during nighttime: 1000/1300/1600/1900
Bonus damage from Fog: 1.2/1.5]4/1.6/1.9x

Manacost: 50


Imagine a straight line in the direction Proculite is facing. 45 degrees on either side, there is another line. Now erase that line in the middle and voila, the cone.

(E)PATIENCE (PASSIVE, pierce bkb (yes) damage type: PHYSICAL, affects enemies)

icon	When in a nest RED and BLUE gain a passive critical chance that is stacking upon range. The further away the target is the higher the critical damage but lower the critical chance. Critical chance starts at 50% for 0% critical damage at 500 units.

Critical chance: Critical damage:

-2.5% per 100 units from target +30% per 100 units from target.

Proculite gains bonus range on his rifle. However, he has a greater chance to miss the farther away his target is. This missing effect cannot be cured by a purchase of a Monkey King Bar, MKB will only apply to his attacks closer than 675 units away. Proculite also has a chance of knocking back hit target.

0-675: No penalty
675-800: 45/30/15/15% miss chance
800-1000: 60/55/50/35% miss chance
1000-1500: 75/75/70/65% miss chance
1500-3000: 100/100/95/95% miss chance

Knock-back chance: 15/20/25/35%
Knock-back duration: .25
Accuracy is key.

Sorry, I still don't get what's similar. But, I will not copy and will now search up every single hero to make sure that I don't make it seem that I copy. Deal? ;D
