How great can an explanation be if he doesn't understand the concept being explained? As you said, it's not exactly rocket science.

Great explanation of the Roshan timer. Still don't get how it works though lol

These seem like conflicting statements.

Well, it looks pretty and in depth?

It really is a good explanation, but it's not exactly rocket science. The outer circle is the fixed 8mins, and the inner circle changes between 1, 2 or 3 minutes, and has 1, 2 or 3 mark, accordingly. The red unused time is probally the one thing that may not be clear at first.

nvm, alur answered.

Helm of the Dominator and Hand of Midas no longer work on Necronomicon units.


(double facepalm)
but purges do. use the helmet to grab yourself the creep with the purge ability and use that to get rid of the necrocreep


(triple facepalm)

Even if you wait around for a random spawn of a Satyr camp and manage to get the Satyr Banisher (a 240 HP creep that gets blown up by any decent nuke by the time Necro comes into play), it won't even kill a level 2 Necronomicon unit. The strategy will only works against level 1 minions at 200 range, and the archer can destroy the Banisher with ease before he gets close. It's a huge waste of money to pick up a HotD for that explicit purpose if it's not part of your item build.

Maybe he just didnt care enough to carefully read it and think about it and posted because he thought it looked cool? There really isn't a way to explain it much better than the way he did, in that amount of time. Plus, no matter how good one explanation is, someone will always not understand it.

Have you actually read the explanation and think there is something wrong with it?

Well, yes, the spectator will know when he will spawn. Not the players.

but you can also purge off other things like various buffs , ethereal status ecetera. im saying , there are still ways to deal with mass necrobook , people will adapt.

i actually meant what he answered because i hadn't read the article yet but since respawn timer is only visible to spectator/broadcasters, players wont know anyway.

It is random for the players. Observers can see exactly when it spawns. And no it is not static 0 1 2 3 minutes but any time between 0 and 3 minutes. Rosh will spawn when the timer goes into the red part.

You're reading a lot into this my friend, the statement was merely an observation on the almost paradoxical nature of his statement - and only that. I suppose I need an asterix explaining that it's not meant to be taken as a slight towards the guide or the user I quoted? Maybe I was wrong in not doing that.

I'm just saying it's very easy for someone to not understand a great explanation, specially when we don't know if they even attempted it. Anyone that went to school should know how it's often not the teacher's fault. I didn't read a lot into your first statement, I just commented that I, someone who actually read it, though it was a good post. Your response was surprising to me since I believe everyone has seen cases where a good explanation alone doesn't go anywhere.

This is all great, but I consciously used the word "seems", do you not agree that the statements could "seem" conflicting? I just thought that it was mildly amusing, even though I easily understood the message he was conveying. Needless to say your comments on the learning process are entirely superfluous, because I agree. I will now go to bed less than mildly amused, thank you and goodnight.

Oh, your first comment makes sense. Your question "How great can an explanation be if he doesn't understand the concept being explained?" doesn't, since it can be from terrible to the best explanation on Earth. It seems you also agrees that being able to understand the concept isn't really necessairly related to the quality of the explanation.

Thank you for the silly discussion, goodnight.

surely this random rosh thing only being not random to spectators makes it easier to cheat

even with 5 minute delay slipping a player a message of what time it will respawn

True. Mass Necronomicon will still be a strong strategy going into the future though. Many of the answers to it are very awkward and don't work as straight counters. And Necro is a very efficient item to use in terms of mana and costs. For just 50 mana you're getting a shitton of damage output and health, not to mention the auras + pure damage blowback + true sight + angles.
