Equipment for Hots heroes ?

[Nikkaszal]

The issue I see is that it'd be a very "win more" hero.

If you're getting heroes, you're getting loot and getting more powerful. If your team falls behind, you swiftly become useless.

This already kinda exists with Butcher. Though instead of "equipment", slain enemies drop meat.

They tried this shit in the alpha. The heavy backlash they got from people was amazing because they don't want LoL dumb shit things in HotS.

i think OP misses the point of HOTS over other MOBA's, in that you dont have to spend hundreds of hours learning item builds and there is no such thing as character progression to avoid people who play a lot just stomping on new players (well more than experienced players do already)

Butcher and Alarak were the main two Heroes that came to mind, for me at least.

If properly implemented it shouldn't be any better or worse than other Heroes that have stacking mechanics (with or without penalty on death).

Problem is, what the OP describes is not on a per Match basis, but on a Permanent basis.

So, as a new player you would go against people who have constantly an Advantage.

On Topic:
Advantages in Stats/Abilities, that you can earn and unlock outside the scope of a Match, doesnt go well in Match Based PVP games.

i would love to spend real money on an epic Weapon/Gear for a specivic hero
or a mount that gives you 15 % more gold earned ingame or chance on chest drop by killing heroes

Basically: "I would love to Pay myself to Victory"

give it a diablo 3 touch and this game would be so much better

Hahahaha, did you every for fun hop with another player into the Arena in Diablo 3?
I mean, its funny for 2-3 minutes. But you cant really call that gameplay anymore.

Fixed that for you.

But I wasn't responding to the OP, rather to Kaleredar who posted right before me.
