HoN Hero Spotlight: Monkey King

The Monkey King excels at close-range combat, "comboing" his abilities in quick succession to keep an opponent disoriented and disabled. In order to truly optimize his early/mid game damage output and mobility, he requires a sizeable mana pool to frequently use his abilities. Buying a Bottle or Blood Chalice will help to ensure he will always have mana for the early game. A Nullstone or Shrunken Head can help you survive against casters if you wish to play more defensively, while a Ghost Marchers and Frostburn combo can launch you past the 500 movement speed mark by the time you are level 16. In general, your luxury items should focus on both keeping you alive and maintaining good damage output. You will want to skill Heavenly Vault primary, as it will be the greatest source of damage output. As your secondary skill, you can either level Illusive Dash or Wan Jin Slam to max, depending on whether you want additional mobility or simply want reliable damage on your disable. Whichever route you go, you should always put at least one point in all three abilities for combo purposes, and pick up Flying Nimbus as soon as possible.

I wasn't fighting about the games. I dont play hon only lol. But that idiot was being an idiot and i felt i should correct him.

[MW3andBF3]

Not today we got graphics remake ;D

[MW3andBF3]

LoL is owned by China now soooo technically they partially did and partially didn't ;P

I love both games there is no need to fight between which is better it is personal opinion. You can't make everything think one game is better than another. It is what you think in your mind.

League of Legends. Pretty cool game.

LoL and HoN...personally LoL is easier to use for new players. When I played HoN, they only had 1 tutorial...everything else said "coming soon". How'd HoN get away with that when they weren't free to play? Also, I had no idea how to build a champion because their store is so confusing and expensive. Other then that, I think HoN is a good game. It's playerbase does seem more forgiving than LoL's tho >.> Also idk I just think HoN has more relaxed gameplay, which is nice. They both are good games.
