Anub'Arak rework//My wish and My Idea

Hero and Skin Suggestions

I think that Anub’Arak has shortcomings in terms of the amount of damage and stability done to the enemy, as well as resistance in battles compared to other heroes.

I’m reviewing and making a new edition and working on him to make him more strong. I’m also looking to expand his performance in the game so that he is no longer just used to deal with Mages. Also I will also improve his previous build as buff.

He’s a tank.

He’s meant to be disruptive, not damaging.

Besides, Anub has more damage than say, Tyrael

are you sure? I dont think he has good damage,Tyrael players make awesome when they are going to play with its bruiser system (damage), he is compared even with Illidan,I see from ther player even 150k hero damage dealt during a match.
but Anub’arak is clearly annoy of damage done especial his basic attack and his basic ability,you mention more on his periodic damage cause of beetle and burining rage and his ultimate,but they are more defined on push and aoe damage,although it is low amount in my oppinion.

and in continue separate of that idea,his stability as a tank is some weak and need buff on this part also.

First of all, comparing aspects of different heroes can be kinda tough, as they usually have some versatility in their talents. As a base Anub has a very low health pool for a tank, but with his Hardened Carapace he can sustain himself to an extend. He is meant to be a mage-killer, or at least be able to disable enemies, be it a single hero or a small group. This might leave him as an easy target for a sustained damage dealer, but he excels when up agains a team heavy on mages. With the right talents he can also pack quite a punch.

Also, you shouldn’t compare the damage of Tyrael and Illidan. As a tank Tyrael usually have a position closer to the enemy, meaning that he has a better chance of poking every once in a while. Illidan on the other hand relies more on spotting openings and finishing of enemies. Though their stats say that thay have done the same amount of damage, the damage done by assassins is usually more impactful.

I think why Anub’arak should has few maximum health that it will be compensated with shield of Hardened Carapace? does can use this shield every time that want to compensated this maximum health? are mages like as Li Ming or Kael’thas are not good damage dealer that can kill Anub’arak easily? (sure I know this spell armor is a nice tool that can be use in another way).

we know that most of fights in Hots have short times and in this way when he can have a come back on match? with a nice mobility or stun? if we grant him some damage, we can use him in more situations and phases.

one of my main reason for a suggest for rework on Anub’arak is it, he is not only be used against mages and we see now he can not do it well with his current situation. (build, kit) and he need some buff…

in regard of Tyrael and Illidan I should say that I can not accept your idea, because both Illidan and Tyrael has similar build especial in basic abilities and most of talents, they have a similar structure but, their Difference are more on numbers that developer define for them, like as Number for basic attack damage, health, basic abilities damage, they have more difference on these numbers, and while person as a editor change this number, we will see their can stand replace together and ever change their role such degree.

I understand what you said about difference between them but I’d like to have a more deep view on those heroes, I’d like to have a imagine like as Theorist on them for improving their situation not only discussion ( I don’t mention that you only do discussion).
