playing the demolisher has gained a completely new dimension in my opinion with the change of making creep-only-weapons doing 100% more damage instead of 25%!
now i like playing the demo, buying a multi bow and set it to attack creeps only. one of them will do more dps than ANY other strating weapon combo below 3000 gold, except the rock catapult and the ice cannon, both i have never seen as a starting weapon ever. :lol:
edit: well actually i DID see people starting that way, but i never considered as a serious starting tactic, because they all were noobs, feeded some time and left.
with playing the demo, you will also have enough hp to start with a quite low range tactic (range 800)
the disadvantages are that you cannot upgrade the weapon, neither it attacks tanks, which is ok, because you will kill creeps much faster with this weapons than with any other (starting) one.
i like the bow/demo combo so much that i usually go for 3-4 of them, which makes me levelling and earning money much faster than any other tactic ive experienced before.
i skill mines whenever possible, then cannon, for the single 3rd/5th level ability i chose the artillery. with a little practice you can greatly support your teammmates (i go for the mid with the demo) and even instantly kill unprotected tinkers (at artillery lvl 1) from an insane range.
yeah, my post has become half a guide, but im very happy with this tactic (as you probably noticed 8) )
