    No, dmg is based on your primary attribute (str, int, or agi). The attributes and the heroes are fairly balanced as a whole. It is all about the imba combos.

    I always random for the gold, and I'm pretty good at most heroes (though some like SF are boring to play). Once you have learned the basics and played a couple of the easier heroes, you should random so you always get a nice mix (unless it is an organized match) and learn about those heroes. You really don't understand an enemy hero's potential if you have never played it yourself. You also don't want to play the same (type of) heroes in the long term, as you get a skewed idea at how to play the game (e.g. Cpatton).

    You get damage from your primary attribute plus
    heath and regen for strength
    attack speed and armor for agility
    mana and regen for intelligence.

    ranged agility with maelstrom to farm, then lifesteal, crit and butterfly - how is was that ranger girl called? :S

    and yes i was referring to the stat=dmg+smthg thing when i said i find agility to be op - if you play careful with some tank that is. otherwise, gank, gank, ragequit

    That works well in the old versions of the original dota (where there were very few snares/disables), but the modern versions are more team-coordination/spell orientated. You'll be highly dependent on your team's ability to protect you if you went pure atk/agi drow ranger because you are the first target during team battles.

    Lol, I didn't even touch Ursa until yoru sing sing video post, and then I played a bunch of games with the hero trying different stuff (one of the first of which was with para). Obviously this is a crime.

    Of course, if I played plague rider, or warlock, or vengeful spirit, or any of the other hero types I've been known to play outside of the STR tank or carry or ganker category, walmart still bitches. Becuase he just likes to bitch. Funny stuff.

    nah it was like that in dota aswell, if you play carry you better take care of your ass ...
    ... that lightning revenant was quite powerful too - similar build just with radiance somewhere in between.

    but dota has the same issue as empires. it requires teamplay while most ppl just want to be the supereliteuberpwnzor. if you dont have a team at hand, a team with a tank who doesnt try to be a damage dealer (f.e), it sucks ...

    apart from that, you got me interested, howto dota2?

    But I haven't? Of course, this means you are playing the hero accordingly (e.g. supporting and not solo ganking as lich). No one cares what that you play the same heroes over and over. We are just stating that you are very bad at the game.

    I know it shouldn't be too hard to get into DotA2 by now. Either sign up for beta on their website or get someone with beta keys (haven't got any). I don't know when the next round of beta invitations should be.

    for me its about 1 in 2-3 years (all games, not only steam games).

    reasons are i mainly play online stuff (#1) and singleplayer often gets boring repetivite carp after 3-4 levels (#2)
