Setup your three heroes,
Invite a friend, let him set up his heroes according to your needs.
When the game starts your friend disconnects, yet his heroes remain.

you can't directly control them like the others, but 4+1 Henchway is always better than 3+2 I guess. (or you could play with your friend )

uh...what's the point of this? It's not like you're gaining any advantage. You're actually getting a disadvantage, since heroes will be taking loots away from you, 2:6 is better than 1:6

it's not so much a real exploit, rather than an observation of game behaviour. those obsessed with claiming the hall of heroes on their own (and I know you guys are out there) might find it useful information.

real obsessed people still might want to try winning the next world championship by playing two computers at once, effectively enabling them to controll two characters and six heroes.

in terms of pve
droprate, schmoprate, who cares. if you want items, go farming or chestrunning.

Well its not like they can just drop heroes from teams when the master of the heroes leaves unless they fix all err7 problems.

for PVE it would be useless


if player AFKS - their Heroes dont move (regardless of what other player does)

if player disconnects, I assume their Heroes wont move either

you know... if this hypothetical person did win the GWNC, Id say they deserved every bit of it.

However, Im sure the rules would get in the way....

Im going to enjoy this pvp+hero thing... maybe...

Ok 1st of all this is meant for PvP. And secondly, have you seen that the heroes have more skills in their bar than henchies do, due to fact that you can customize them? Therefor this is an advantage for henchwayers that like to do so. They would have more skills in their build not to mention an actual build!

not true. During the preview event a friend of mine left the party. but before I ported back to the town I tried what would happen and bingo. worked like a charm. afk is a bit of a problem though.

hmm, I think the rules should allow playing the championship with Heroes. be it one or be it many.

Err how would this be better than if the 2nd player stayed on and played??? If he drops you are now short a player on your team. If he stays you have a full team.

I like it better this way. Atm if a player is disconnected you just lose one member of your team, if heroes disappeared too you'd lose half of your team.... Then you could probably /resign.
