I can count on one hand the number of times somebody has eaten through all 3 of my helms and then headshot me. So either you play way more often than I do (probably not), are incredibly unlucky (statistically unlikely), or are slightly exaggerating that claim.Hiei wrote:It's WC3. Getting 3-4-5-6 headshots in a single firefight is not so far fetched.. In fact, there have been many instances where I have had 6+ helms consumed against one person in a single firefight. Helms are strong, whether it's 1 or 10. There is no denying it, but I promise you, that it is no where near the issue you foresee it to be. Most kills in WC3 due to helms, come from body shots anyway. A couple AK shots at the chest will still drop most races.. I don't even aim for heads as often in WC3 anymore, because most everyone buys helms. But we'll just have to see how it goes.
But anyway, I'm not here to exchange anecdotes about helms. Just voicing my concern that I don't personally believe that paying money should net somebody a distinct combat advantage over somebody else. Instant level 25, faster gold generation, faster EXP gain in other classes, all wonderful bonuses. But it's Sammy's philosophy on what he wants to do. I'm just not a pay-to-win player, and if it feels like that is an actual factor than I'll move onto something else I guess.
Oh well.
