in the middle of this month, although there are some weakening areas for humans, orcs, night elves, and 3 races, there are also many enhancements. Especially for the human race, all the changes seem to have little impact, but taken together, they will greatly improve the future of the human race. Compared with these three races, the undead are a race that has been completely weakened. If does not call back for existing changes in subsequent test changes or official patches, the future of the undead will become increasingly uncertain. Next, let’s start from the weakening of the undead in the test patch, and let’s take a look at the possible bleak situation of the undead in the future.
The anti-magic shield skill can be dispelled, which will cause the Banshee to lose its value.
After the Banshee adds the anti-magic shield skill to a designated unit, it can withstand a certain amount of magic damage. Not only does the skill itself cannot be dispelled, it is no exaggeration to say that it can greatly improve the survivability of the undead troops. Once it is confirmed that this skill will become a dispellable skill in the final patch, the actual combat value of the Banshee unit will be directly reduced to the lowest point. Although the effects of the two major skills of Curse and Possession still exist, the core value has been lost, and the Banshee's future actual combat capabilities will inevitably be essentially reduced.
The evil aura is weakened again, which will reduce the comprehensive combat capabilities of the troops.
From the importance of the death knight among the undead heroes, it is not difficult to see that the evil aura skill is one of the skills that the undead rely on most no matter which version it is in. In the case that the version itself has been weakened in the past, after it is weakened again, the undead's comprehensive combat capabilities or collaborative combat capabilities will be reduced. Even if this weakening only reduces the movement speed bonus and is not a comprehensive weakening, the impact on future team fighting capabilities cannot be underestimated. The
statue is comprehensively weakened, and its supply and comprehensive capabilities will be greatly reduced. When the
1.35 test patch was first released, it increased the level of the statue and the experience value it provided. It would have a considerable impact on the undead, but it would not affect the actual use. It can only be regarded as a minor weakening. But after the second test patch appeared and the statue's mana recovery ability was further reduced, the undead's future supply ability will be greatly reduced. As for the undead race, all key skills in the later stage have very high supply requirements. It is self-evident how much the impact of the weakening of the statues on the overall combat effectiveness is.
Frost Nova's skills are weakened, and the skill burst is greatly reduced.
In daily games, the undead's high skill burst is the key to restricting opponents. With the weakening of Frost Nova's skills, the undead's ability to explode will be greatly reduced, and the suppression effect it can bring to opponents has been greatly reduced. Especially in the later stages of the game, the weakening of the Frost Nova skill will greatly reduce the instant kill ability of the undead. If it cannot provide enough deterrence to enemy heroes, the reduction in actual combat ability actually far exceeds the damage reduction data.
's mining ability has been weakened, and the undead has returned to poverty again.
After entering the 1.30 series version, the mining ability of the undead has improved a bit. Even after Xiaoqiang's mining flow gradually faded out, the mining ability still exists. As the second test patch of version 1.35 extends the construction time of the Haunted Gold Mine, the mining ability of the undead will inevitably be weakened again, and the undead in the future will inevitably become the undead who died of poverty again.
summary
From the known changes, it is not difficult to see that the undead have suffered all-round weakening, and any of these weakenings cannot be compensated by simply adjusting the 2-second cooldown of the skull rod. Not to mention, there is another specific situation that is not very clear, but it is likely that there are changes that can limit the summoning of the undead skeleton . It is also true that in the future, the undead will not be able to use tactics related to banshees, but other tactical systems can be used, but the overall effect will be greatly reduced.
