* Minions are now affected by enemy Spider Webs (it's only fair :) )

[Synergy_]

Looks like Ogres will be affected now, and Spider Minions cannot be webbed anymore!

Next patch yeah.

It'd be great if you could increase the ROF of minions with higher stats, even if there were heavy diminishing returns. Limiting their animation to 1/sec leaves a gap where a spider can still drop down and web them.

Agreed.

Do Spider minions prioritize to web Ogres over other enemies?

* Spider Minions can no longer be webbed, and Enemy Ogres can now be webbed

I knew they cared!

Spiders, meh, big deal.
How about a minion that can meet a sharken rush and push it back, or one that flies at the copters in a suicide attack, or throttle a djinn by his big fat neck? Spiders are so last week!

No seriously tho. I think this is a fine change. Fred, Alice, Thelonious, and my other minions are not worried at all.

If this is so, agreed also.

if this is fair, then lots of other things about minions need to be made "fair." like ogres and spider minions webbing/poison balling farther than melee range. and the horrible falloff on mage minion healing.

and again, if this is going to lead to webbed archers/mages firing once every 10 seconds while webbed, then no, i am not ok with this and i do not feel this is "fair."

the attack rate on minions needs to be boosted regardless of this change though. it being effectively the same at 500 stat and 1500 stat is really just kinda horribad.

i really dont see this change having any bearing whatsoever for most builds, but for mix mode, oh man its going to be hell.

Anybody thought of using Spiders as significant defense against Ogres after 7.39d? If they could, let's say, decrease their DPS by half, that would be amazing addition to minion walls.
Enemy spiders decrease movement speed and DPS like ten times I believe :P

[gamer22]

i would actually use spiders if there effects were similar to what it does to our heros

[Wally]

was hoping those webs would have a use as well against those copters... but nope
