IRC chatter should remain in IRC - http://webchat.quakenet.org/?channels=tl.dota2

Posts that relate to topics with their own thread, such as in News, Tournaments or Strategy should go in those threads.

Am testing if hitting main targets ensures hitting secondary target atm, i'll test if secondary hits can crit afterwards. Will post results ASAP.

I want to try and do a build with tranq and Aquila, they are enough to take care of both mana and hp and are very cost efficient. The problem however is that without the Linkens spell block(granted it is only one spell) she seems very suspectible to CCs, now it is not the biggest problem if they focus you during teamfights(granted you want that too since you are tanky) but still I lack something.

Also, you do lose out on PT, 30% AS is nothing to scoff at.

Also curious about MKB mini-bash.

MKB and Crit were both not practical on Medusa before because of how crits/bashes/True Strike override Split Shot. Could actually be practical lategame depending on how they interact now.

If you're hardcore farming, you still need Linken's regen. It's like the difference between Aquila+Bottle Morph and Linken's Morph. One is acceptable for normal usage, but the other is still necessary for hardcore farming.

I suppose you could survive with Aquila if you have the best luck in the world and every medium/hard camp always spawns Satyrs for you.

Crit is only on main hit and doesn't apply damage to other targets, now for MKB testing.

Edit: MKB bash only applies to main target but true-strike seems to apply to all targets, or rather, if you hit main target all split arrow shots also hit, so it's probably not so much true strike as it's just split shot working just like in DotA1 in that regard.

So yea outside of crit working fine with splitshot on main target + still hitting other targets, i think it's nearly 1:1 with DotA1.

Edit2: Her illusions do NOT get split shot, but i assume that will be fixed.

Argh this talk of medusa worries me. I hated facing her in DotA--she always screwed me over (and not in a good way). The flashbacks... the flashbacks... Then again, much of the original heroes have been buffed/nerfed to such an extent that it will be interesting to see how her implementation will go.

There's a lot of bugs with medusa right now, her mystic snake is returning mana when it shouldn't be and she's (when split shot is on I mean) off by 5-10% from what her damage should be (gets more from normal agility than she should but less from +dmg than she should).

Also the manta image thing as mentioned.


How would Dusa fare vs PL nowadays? With diffusal level 2 he should be able to burn through her mana pool insanely fast even extremely lategame. Split shot seems about as good as any ranged hero can be vs PL but I don't know if a 6 slot Dusa will stand up to a 6 slot PL.

Your right, I could just never make it work for me unless I was afk farming or doing something else equally mindless, anything else and I just didnt have the concentration to keep it up. I only ever did it on heroes with good ways to heal themselves in other ways like SK/naix who dont really need it anyway.

I guess what I mean to say Is it wont be missed too terribly.
