New Hero: Giant Knight | with Pictures & Explanations

It is a really good idea but i think the hitpoints are a bit excessive, especially once the hero is lvl 40 (MAX) when he has 11,000+ hitpoints?! Tht is just too many, he would unstoppable!

I think it would be okay.
Maxed defenses would shred through his hp in no time if you look at how much dmg lvl 40 archer queens, x-bows, and single target inferno towers do haha.

Lvl 40 archer queen does 419 dmg every second, she would eat him up in like 10 seconds :P

Even IF he IS too op they can nerf heroes by adding a hero trap that does % hp every second. I think this would be interesting to see too.

Look here: http://forum.supercell.net/showthrea...o-check-it-out for more details on the trap idea.

Don’t going around telling me the cross is not specifically Christian, because everyone should know it’s Christian. I mean, it’s the same white robe that knight’s wore under their chain mail, the helmet is an only darker version of the English med-helmet.
Although in medieval periods kite shields were common, during the Crusades, the Christians would sometime plant metallic plates (similar to your Hero’s shield) into the sand as to claim the area for the Crusaders.

If anyone is offended by a cross (no idea why anyone would) they can remove it.
If you looked at this post here:

I'm not asking them to make this exactly how I proposed it, I'm just thinking a Giant Hero would be nice.

You wouldn't argue about this lol

Anyway thanks for the replies guys. I would really like to see a new hero soon, 2 just isn't enough (Even though they are op as poop) haha

You must have put a lot of effort into this. Personally i would love this troop (the giant is my favourite troop, in fact i get lv7 giants in 16hrs) but the game isn't ready for any more heroes :(

I did a lot of thinking about the name and Giant Knight was my favorite.
Giant (for troop) and Knight (for a chess piece like King / Queen)

Note: I was thinking when he levels up, change the color
of the crosses, shield, shirt, belt, helm, or all five.

Hero Information:

- Special ability: Provoke. The Provoke Ability taunts (ground) enemy defenses and Clan Castle Troops so that they change targets to the Giant Knight, in addition to increasing his damage, restoring some of his health and summoning up to 5 Giants to aid him in battle. The Giant Knight gains this ability at Level 5, and it becomes more powerful every five levels he gains.

- The Giant Knight's Provoke ability summons Giants of the same level that the player has researched in his or her Laboratory. For instance, if the player has researched level 5 Giants, the Giant Knight will summon level 5 Giants.

- Only the Giant Knight is affected by his Provoke ability, this does NOT affect any friendly Giants that are spawned.

- Upon using his Provoke ability he gets the damage increase permanently, therefore it can be used in three ways:
1) At the start of battle to get the attack bonus.
2) In the middle of battle to taunt enemy defenses.
3) In the middle/end of battle to restore some of his health.

- Because of his heavy armor and massive HP, the Giant Knight takes double damage against arrows. This includes Archers (Clan Castle Troops), Archer Queens, Archer Towers, & X-Bows

You have a few mistakes... Giants are tier 2 troops and xbows DONT shoot arrows, neither do archer queens (the ammunition used for crossbows are called 'bolts' and the queen and xbow shoot elixir bolts not arrows

Thanks for pointing it out, but I wouldn't call them mistakes since both of these are debatable lol

As of the Christmas update, goblins are tier 2 troops and giants are tier 1 :D
Look at the order you create troops, they swapped them :cool:

Oh and bolts and arrows are almost the same thing.
