Yesterday, S2games released an update for Heroes of Newerth. Aside from fixing some bugs they add a Practice Mode which decreases the leaver threshold to 8% and they also add a new hero Andromeda, based on DotA's Vengeful Spirit.
Along with this new hero Andromeda fixes and updates for the balance of the game will be officially released soon ( Version 0.1.41) this patch features:
General:
- Added Practice mode. To access practice mode, create a game online with the server set to "practice"
- Fixed a couple pathing routes through the trees near the Hellbourne secret stop on Forests of Caldavar
- Leaver threshold changed to 8% (from 10%)
New hero:
- Andromeda, based on DOTA's Vengeful Spirit
Items:
- You can now drop items onto the upper left hero portraits and you will attempt to give the item to that hero
- The bottle can now only be used by heroes
- Nullstone now properly negates targeted channel spells (such as devour)
- Shrunken Head's Magic Immunity is no longer dispellable
- Whispering Helm now plays life steal effects
- Abyssal Skull's aura will no longer apply to gadgets
Arachna:
- Spidersting's Spiderling is now a gadget
* This fixes an issue causing it to receive life steal and health regen, making it too hard to kill due to the mechanics of how it is killed
- Added a passive effect to the Spiderling to make it more noticeable
Behemoth:
- Cast impact time on Enrage set to 0.69 seconds (from 0.5)
- Cast impact time on Shockwave set to 0 (from 0.3 seconds)
- Magic Immune targets will cause Shockwave to spawn an additional wave of damage (though it will not damage them)
Electrician:
- Mana shield now auto-toggles off when incoming damage puts electrician's mana below 10
Hellbringer:
- The AOE stun from spawning Malphas will now affect units with Magic Immunity
Pebbles:
- Chuck now throws the closest nearby targets, rather than a random one
- Increased speed of Pebbles' stalagmites' projectile to 1200 from 1000
- Fixed Grow causing Chucked units to not take double damage from Stalagmites
- Attack animations now scale properly with Grow
Swiftblade:
- Swift Slashes now applies a 0.1 second ministun to the primary target
Torturer:
- Impalement will no longer hit splash-immune targets (such as Arachna's Spiderling and couriers)
Wretched Hag:
- Fixed an issue causing Haunt's effects to display abnormally large on some heroes
- Added improved impact effects to Sonar Scream
- Added improved impact effects to Bat Blast
- Fixed an issue causing Bat Blast's effects not to play when Wretched Hag has Staff of the Master
Valkyrie:
- Call of the Valkyrie now only hits visible units
- The extra wave of damage to one nearby target on Call of the Valkyrie now correctly deals half damage rather than full
Bug fixes:
- Fixed an issue that would cause some players to be unable to buy back sometimes
- Fixed an issue with units bound to projectiles (Valkyrie's leap, electrician's grip) being targetable at their original location
* This fixes issues like Pyromancer's Dragonfire stunning Valkyrie if it impacts while valkyrie is still in the air, despite having leaped outside the range of the AOE
- Fixed an issue causing auto-assemble items not to sell for their correct price
- Fixed an issue causing players to lose an item when it is swapped from a courier into a lot of the stash that already had an item on it
- Added Practice mode. To access practice mode, create a game online with the server set to "practice"
- Fixed a couple pathing routes through the trees near the Hellbourne secret stop on Forests of Caldavar
