can i join ur clan??hehe
anyway..does anybody know how play Madman...seriously??

i guess i won't going to get this game before they fix the mass hacking problem

Hmm? I don't really get how does the taunt thing work...

Taunt is currently disabled for us who have not yet pre ordered (- -").... It was functioning in the patch before this patch. Then they decided to take it away from us who have not yet paid for this game.

Once you have paid for the game, you can activate taunt after you have bind a hotkey for the thing.

Added on August 22, 2009, 2:12 pmTO ply tht small monster, you just need to play very smart.....(when I mean smart I mean you don't rambo into people when your only lvl 4 - 6 unless your 100% sure that you can kill without dieing..)

During team clashes you have to wait for everyone to attack 1st then use your stalk skill and get some cheap shots into the fight, after tht barrel roll the weakest member and either kill it or get out b4 you get spotted.

Around late game you should have Brutalizer, the MoM equilivant, Wingbow or Savagemace, Shield Breaker and some kind of armour to keep yourself going.....even beast heart works well.


Thats how I usually play Madman, however its very hard to farm all those items so you have to again think about what to get in you own game. Sometimes getting shieldbreaker is useless sometimes lifesteal isnt nessary sometimes the wingbow isn't needed. However I always get brutalizer 1st in my games cause the stun is awesome on the madman.

As for speed either get phase boots or TP boots, steam boots are alright but I rather have the Enchanted Marchers (aka Phaseboots) than the stat enhancing speed boot for the ability to go through things.


Another note is that Magic is your worse enemy, if you fight a Thunderbringer, pyromancer etc that has high magic damage, you have to be carefull....If your enemy is also very smart they will make sure to get wards for your lane and stop you from farming or even making you useless.

IMHO, once you have an escape mechanism you can skip phase boots entirely. Damage and IAS takes precedence over moving through things for heroes such as madman due to their windwalk capabilities.

Frankly, you MUST use barrel roll to counter channelers, to initiate, to chain stun or anything that will assist your team. Place your madman in such a way that you hit multiple enemies via barrel roll and procede to chase the weakest one thereafter. Nobody can dictate what you should and should not buy for your hero, because you enjoy then can lah. Core items however must include something that has lifesteal so you can hold lanes and survive longer during the pushing phase. Personally Hack and Slash and Savage Mace are favourites of mine.

the beta key still closing ?

2 updates in a day...

Version 0.1.40
--------------
NOTE: If you have custom interface mods installed, you may need to remove them until the authors can distribute updated versions. Failure to do so may prevent some of your item slots from functioning.

Pebbles:
- Fixed Enlarge modifying attack speed as a percentage rather than just subtracting attack speed
- Added additional information to Enlarge's tool tip

Bug fixes:
- Fixed Remake vote passing with one vote
- Fixed stats drop down in CC Panel not displaying level properly
- Fix Succubus tool tip for Heartache referencing Magic damage instead of True damage
* Note that the ability was actually dealing True damage as it was intended, this was simply a typo in the tool tip itself
