Hero battles have provided me with the most entertainment in this game in a long time. I just started playing them about 3 days ago but I have become totally addicted. I don’t know how to go about this but I want to list things I really like about it and some things I think could be improved upon.

Pros

1. You make the build. Whatever your heart desires.

2. Allows you to play specific classes or builds you might not have been able to explore in the past.
3. You’re the general, you call the shots. Need a hero to cap a shrine, you send him to do it.
4. A lot of fun maps each one unique in its own way.
5. Good faction.

Cons

1. I have found that sometimes my heroes don’t follow my commands. I have noticed that if I send a hero off to do something and even if it is relatively near the battle it will toggle back and forth between the objective and the battle.

2. How bout a title for hero battles?
3. People RAGE QUITTING before the match is over. Often times matches require you to give up a few early points to build shrines get the other team overextended or spread too thin. I have won matches before where the other person, before rage quitting had more points than me, realized they were on the verge of a complete avalanche. These matches go generally fast so I would like to see a penalty for early withdrawals. Let’s say a loss of 200 bath faction.

Aye. Early withdrawal = you 'steal' the faction you'd be missing out on from the withdrawing party.

I like that idea. Just take what you would be missing from the 500 possible on a full win from their faction.

If you are on a PVP character its on the only map you have. If you want to play with a PVE character go to the boat and select Great Temple of Balthazar. Once you travel there hit your map again and you will see Hero Battles to the right of the map.

Just wanted to point out that I believe there might still be a glitch, unless it was updated just recently. If you have a PvE character and go to the Great Temple, sometimes Hero Battles won't unlock. This had happened to me and it took me awhile to figure out what was going on. To get around that, just quickly create a 2-second PvP character and it will automatically unlock for you. You can keep the PvP character or delete it, since unlocking Hero Battles is account-wide. Just thought I'd share that with you.
