Updates

Update 2015/09/17 - First post Rexxar patch numbers, resetting the total games, potentially shifting builds around a lot.

Update 2015/09/04 - The build shorthand column now link to HeroesFire.com talent calulator with the URL customized for each build!
Use them to see a more detailed view of the build and talents, or tweak builds slightly.

HOTS Build Cheatsheets

Here are the most popular Hero of the Storm Heros' builds from HOTS Logs in a shorthand format. All credit goes to HOTS Logs for the data, I am merely reformatting it.

The wiki sidebar is also searchable to make it easier to find a hero quickly.

Shorthand Explained

  • The actual number is the number of talents down from the top of that tier's talent list.
  • Left to right are level tiers, in order, with the Heroic between dashes (Levels 1,4,7, dash, 10, dash, 13, 16, 20)

This shorthand format is each talent tier gets represent by a number, that number is the number of choices down from the first talent for that tier. I group the tier talent numbers symmetrically with the first 3 levels and last 3 bunched up, and level 10 with dashes around it. See the example at the bottom if this is confusing or click through to the hero pages.

Shorthand Example

E.G. ToughGuy: 321-2-524 shorthand build means ToughGuy's build goes like this

Tier Level Talent Choice From top
1 1 3rd talent choice from top
2 4 2nd talent
3 7 1st talent
4 10 2nd talent
5 13 5th talent
6 16 2nd talent
7 20 4th talent

Why?

This is a project I made solely for myself and to save time since I used to manually create shorthand character build cheat sheets. Quickly choosing talents in game is important, even when you're not as familiar with a character's talents. I assume there are some other new players that could benefit from this type of thing so I've shared this information through github.

How?

HOTS Logs Log is a simple python scraper, feel free to browse the sourcecode in the github project. I asked for permission before scraping HotSLogs and do so only once a day (and republish the latest info on this project's github wiki pages)
