But yes, I agree with you Kaisim. Aphro is a great hero for banish and is an awesome tank. My only wish is if she would not "miss" so much as a top hero when you start t put over 300+ hit on her. With these "misses", I do agree her damage output could be increased 20 - 35% to be at par with Pompei (but not quite as high as Pompei). Pompei has self health deprecation, which does limit how long he can fight. In Banish he self destructs after a certain # of rounds.

but that is exactly my point, that IF the misses stay as is and she hit only every 2nd or 3rd round on an average (even with 300+ hitrating) then you can improve her easily on the same damage output as pompei since he almost never misses. yes his HP decreases however you can compensate for that with maria, better gear and runes; but to compensate for aphrodites high miss rate is impossible if not with hitrating.
please note: i am not talking about the chance to stun, thats just another factor that adds up to the poor result

anything helps, especially in pvp. in other words: who cares as long as you can afford it?
