# 8 Envenom:
I agree imaginary number up there, in regards to making the poison stack with natures other DoT's it has. As a matter of fact most of them need to be looked at. Also the reduction of power by 5 or 10 would be a good idea.
# 9 Tunnel:
As a proponent of a tunnel deck this is a toughie for me, in regards to how to make it useful in PvP. PvE is not that big of a deal, PvP though, that one is tough. However the reduction in power cost is probably the only way to make is useful.
-
When it comes to reduction of cards, I do believe that slow is the way to go, and give it time to be tested.
For Phase tower I think removing the shortened vulnerability durations, as well as the damage vulnerability and leaving only a life point buff for each upgrade would be the best way to handle this. The power cost of PT is 60, yet you usually need 2+ units to deal with it. This still allows the potency of the card, while allowing it not to completely steam roll certain factions.
Mortar Tower, just widen the spray pattern from 10 meters to 20-25 meters, that should keep it in check and not as potent

I can nay remember the answer to this question so will ask.
Is it possible to duplicate the card database?
I ask for this reason. One thing that destroys RTS games which have a PvE and a PvP using the same materials is they can vary in mileage greatly depending on which you play.
If you make a PvP change in the name of balance, it can royally screw the card in PvE. So is it possible to duplicate the database then somehow make changes to the PvP database which would not affect the PvE database. I am sure it is not an easy change. But in the long run, may be the easiest way to bring balance changes that does unintentionally affect one or the other.

I played this game when Electronic Arts still ran it how sad that the same toxic trash community is still dominating it. I have met some decent people so far but these elites this game has ruins it to some point for me. i really was hoping the rebirth of this would have solved the problem how ever seems its still the same type prick playing
I to have to stress that I never had a bad time with anyone on the forums or in game. Even with all the Fire/Shadow/Frost players who refuse to go to the light of the Nature side, they have been nice and formal.
As mentioned above just look for other players. The vast majority who have been here for a while, understand the game is trying to get new players and will go out of their way to help them, myself included once I get everything working again.

I would like if you thoroughly test this hypothesis of yours. I would suggest a 3-man tournament, and please post it on your youtube channel.

Dawn seems REALLY rusty (so I might be better than him rn) but as far as 2v2s go, I think @LagOps might be the strongest Beta tester (he certainly wasn't as rusty as me).
Some 2v2 games incoming (one of them was hilarious, but unfortunately I didn't record it live
)
Eirias beat the sneezit out of me.
I think its fair to say that we are all rusty. Give it some time and I am sure some folks will iron it out. Of course I had promotional testing and then hurricane matthew to deal with and i am just now getting back home. I could not remember the damn hot keys to save my life!. I will avenge my defeats!!!!!

alright Ill search around...
EDIT: I found the error. Works now. Thanks @Pesmontis for this usefull Programm !
I am experiencing the same error. Could you share on how you fixed it?

Sheesh talk about necro
I LIKE IT!!!!
As we get closer to beta, the NPE really needs to be thought out not only by the devs but by us veterans as well. We are what is going to keep new folks here. And if we wish the game to have longevity we need a way to keep those players.

Taking a look now, sorry been buried in work lately :O(

I would not pay monthly fee to any game even if i love it.
And this is why PC gaming has gone into the toilet due to the F2P micro transactions and P2W money. I never liked the F2P model when it started and when some of the more established monthly subscriptions switched to that model the games went to crap.
One of the few times companies should revert back to the way it was.

I think I just figure out why Bejing Guy likes to start with Werebeasts :>

While true Nature does not have any counter against Phase Tower, knowing how the tower works allows great Nature Micro Players to render it almost useless. However the micro required to do this is great.
In essence if the shadow player leaves it to shoot at a single unit till its dead, just move the unit around constantly. The PT will miss every shot. It places damage at the exact location the unit it was firing at was when the shot left the tower. So if the unit moves, the shot lands at the position the unit was at. So if you can micro the target of the PT well, then you have a chance.
However its a giant PITA to do it.

On my guide, each faction has a subsection called "evolution of the deck."
In this subsection, I ask a player who played that faction (LagOps and Taker are my previous volunteers) to explain their process on how their deck changed as they became better players. Obviously this section isn't useful if you picked up a faction after you were really good. The point is to illustrate the reasons you changed your deck to make it better, and why you made those changes.
Speaking of this, I still need a Fire-Frost player to do this section as well.
yeah thats easy to do, been playing Nature since beta. Started with my root deck then went DO then Tunnel and flip flop between the three for PvP.
When I am done with the trailers I can do this. expect a few PM's though ;p

Now contracting someone to write the "Evolution of the Deck" for pure nature!
I had planned on making a Video guide for Nature in the future, after I get done with this infernal trailer.
Define, "Evolution" ;p

Promo promo razorleaf please
I see what you did there ;p

I can test this ad nausea however I will more than likely need a 2nd alpha account to do it. I have 4 computers in the house so I can use multiple bidders to do it with.
I just tried to do a simu log in on TC's computer and mine and I was blocked. I can test this however will need an additional temporary access account. If not possible I guess TS will be the best way to try to time it?

LOL all I am saying is remove the Rapid Construction Feature, the card will still work as intended. The Rapid Construction is where a lot of the problem lays.
-
This is apparently pretty interesting. This really sounds like a healthy nerf to pure fire, but I'm worried about the fact, RB isn't necessary on Yshia which is the most broken cliffdancer-map.
Best regards,
RadicalX
Going through some of the replays that I found on my daughters computer, I never realized just how important this card was to pure fire. It allows them to spawn non dazed units close to an enemies base. While I think the card is needed, I think the rapid construction is what makes it a very powerful card. Just remove that and give the enemy a chance to take it out like most other buildings. I think this will alleviate alot of the complaints about Cliff Dancing.
Now if the opponent takes a well close to a fire player shame on them. But wayyyy to many times I will see a fire player drop a RB close to the well and or cliff, and there is little the opponent can do. Yes certain maps favor Cliff Dancer. Just like Certain maps favor a Root network, just like certain maps favor a T1 swift unit rush. That is the nature of the game.
I truly think though this one change to RB, would alleviate alot more problems. But alas that is just my opinion.
-
You know a thought just occurred to me. While this will not solve the whole problem it will help a bit.
Merely remove the Fast Construction from Rallying banner. This way Fire will have to take a well and or monument on that cliff. Currently they drop a 50 power rapid construction RB and there is really no way to stop it from being built. I think this one little change will make a world of difference in a lot of ways. Anyways just the thoughts of an old man :>

Here is the first of many. Will knock more out on Monday. I have to work for the next 48 hours.
Mephisto, if you want to, I have reorganized myplaylists to seperate the PvE and PvP if you want to update your links you can now. Sorry it took me so long
