			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Heroes of Newerth has released patch 0.1.39 that brings in 2 new heroes (I&#8217;ve updated my <a href="http://borkweb.com/story/heroes-of-newerth-dota-hero-equivalents">HoN/DotA equivalents post</a> appropriately)!</p>

<em>Equivalent of the Queen of Pain in DotA</em>

Succubus<br />
<em>Equivalent of the Bane Elemental in DotA</em>
</div>
<p>For those interested, the full changeset is as follows:</p>
<blockquote><p>
Version 0.1.39<br />
&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8211;</p>
<p>General:<br />
- Added PSR and clan information to the in-game player stats screen<br />
- Changed requirements for Remake vote to pass<br />
* It now requires the total number of players minus 2 to vote yes. If less than 4 people are voting, it requires<br />
* If more than 4 people are voting, (total players &#8211; 2) votes are required to pass. If more than 2 people are voting, (total players &#8211; 1) votes required. Otherwise, 100% required to pass.<br />
- Restricted game data not relevant to a players&#8217; team<br />
* This will prevent map hacks from working in HoN<br />
- Fixed several effects showing up through the fog of war<br />
- Updated Portuguese translation</p>
<p>New heroes:<br />
- Wretched Hag, based on DOTA&#8217;s Akasha, the Queen of Pain<br />
- Succubus, based on DOTA&#8217;s Bane Elemental</p>
<p>General Gameplay:<br />
- Added team-based skills, Demonic Fortification for Hellbourne and Fortification of Sol for Legion<br />
* These skills are accessed by clicking on any team structure then clicking on the corresponding button in the info pane in the lower right of the screen<br />
* These skills share a global cool down time. Anyone on the team may activate them, but then they go into cool down for everyone<br />
* When used, these skills apply +9999 armor to all allied structures</p>
<p>Arachna:<br />
- Slightly increased visual size of the Spiderling<br />
- Fixed a bug causing Spider Sting to not hit stealth units if they go stealth before the projectile hits them</p>
<p>Behemoth:<br />
- Fixed some issues with fissure not impacting properly on higher level terrain or impacting units standing near the behemoth</p>
<p>Magmus:<br />
- Added more detailed cast effects to Eruption and modified the animation. It should now be clearer when Magmus starts this skill</p>
<p>Pebbles:<br />
- Reworked Chuck, it should now deal its damage consistently<br />
- Units affected by Chuck will now take double the damage from Stalagmites<br />
- Chuck will no longer be greyed out when no valid units are nearby to throw<br />
- Reworked Stalagmites to properly delay based on distance<br />
- Stalagmites now has a 600 base cast range, to match its DOTA counter-part<br />
* Enlarge still increases the range of this skill by 50/100/150, making the maximum range now 750, from 700</p>
<p>Pestilence:<br />
- Fixed a bug causing Swarm to not hit stealth units if they go stealth before the projectile hits them</p>
<p>Swiftblade:<br />
- Swift Slashes will no longer hit siege units or gadgets</p>
<p>Bug fixes:<br />
- Fixed a missing icon for Kongor&#8217;s Cheese

<p>As I&#8217;ve posted many times on this blog, I&#8217;m a huge fan of DotA (Defense of the Ancients).  It is only right that I suddenly become enamored with <a title="Heroes of Newerth" href="http://heroesofnewerth.com/">Heroes of Newerth</a> (HoN), a game by S2Games currently in beta that matches the functionality of DotA and adds a layer of awesomeness on top.</p>
<p>I&#8217;ve played a number of games so far and have found one of my biggest hurdles is re-learning the heroes in HoN.  Luckily, many of the heroes are simply ports of DotA heroes but learning who is who is also a slow process.  Here are heroes in HoN with their DotA equivalents:</p>

* Increase Luna&#8217;s attack range by 10<br />

<h2 id="_game-modes-commmands_1" >==[Game Modes &#038; Commmands]==</h2>
<ul>
<li>Adjusted starting gold in -rd to give you the same amount you&#8217;d have when the creeps come out in regular pick game (right now it is a little less than normal)</li>

</ul>
<h2 id="_map-misc-changesfixe_1" >==[Map &#038; Misc Changes/Fixes]==</h2>
<ul>
<li>Changed the way Aegis and Roshan work. Aegis is now a Roshan drop (a 1-charge ankh basically). You cannot create it manually. Roshan starts out weaker without melee return. He respawns stronger and bigger every 10 minutes </li>

<li>Changed Range creep quantity upgrade from 60min to 45min. Siege follows this as well. Melee creeps quantity upgrade frequency changed to a few minutes sooner than usual</li>
<li>Implemented a sound for when creeps spawn for the first time (75198)</li>
