I wanna say that i fucking love rapiers, make games so much more interesting.
From the Ghastly Eyrie I can see to the ends of the world, and from this vantage point I declare with utter certainty that this one is in the bag!

The only reason for me (ever) going linken first weaver would has to be playing against a Doom but I'd still avoid getting that horrible item on weaver if i could. Even bfury is a better item for weaver when compared to Linken.

That's straight out bullshit, linkens is good for weaver as it makes alot of his hard counters (lion, silencer) make him loose worth and makes him a pain in the ass to lock down in teamfights, if you don't have linkens (or bkb, which I agree is better in the majority of the cases) there's very few times where you can actually run rampant.

Weaver doesn't need a damage dealing item as his first item to make impact on teamfights, he just needs to not get locked down and die and if he cannot do that he cannot do the job, linkens is more often choosed on weaver over bkb simply because ultimate orb is a really fucking good item on weaver and weaver in shukuichi often really gets 1 spell in the face before running away / time lapsing away.

Only thing about linkens is that I think it's completely wasted if you get it too late as the mana solving issue will be non relevant after you allready have drums, treads and aquila


Bkb 3900gold.

Or, people should actually think when they are playing weaver, how to positioning, how to engage/getting out of teamfight with shukuchi/ulti.

No, that wasn't bullshit, at all.

The battlefury part

And people on TL hate on linkens with a passion, so ofcourse I wouldn't be agreed with

To be fair Battlefury is underrated on ranged heroes who a) want the regen b) have steroids that scale with flat damage and c) cry about a cost ineffective Linkens.

Therefore the only true Weaver build for people who hate Tranquil Aquila is Treads -> Perseverance -> Casual Demon Edge.

Battlefury used to be core on Windrunner even in pro games way back, even in pro games. I think PGG "invented" it. It was bad, but people did it a lot.

battlefury isnt underrated on ranged heroes. its bad, because there are better options, its that simple really.

You realize that BF is the most cost-efficient flat damage item in the game besides Demon Edge, right?

On TOP of that you get the improved version of Perseverance. It helps to look past "hurpdurp splash only melee" and look at the numbers behind the item.


e: @above: Dusa has a 400% steroid that scales off flat damage. Unless you insist on the spellblock BF beats the crap out of Linkens as a farming item on Dusa.

You lose 55 dmg (~3666 gold taking Claymore as baseline)

You gain +15 all stats (~3150 gold taking ultimate orb as baseline)

Suddenly you're paying 1341 gold exclusively for the spell block. Instead you might as well build BF+ultimate orb and get more out of your money.


PS: It's not an accident that the cost for the spell block is almost equivalent to the recipe price. That's what makes the item so inefficient in comparison, UNLESS you want the spell block.

I thought the rational behind Linkens instead of BF was it was a decent farming item that made her much more tanky / harder to gank vs. something like a BF (or some other damage item).

It covers several of her weaknesses. Yes, she still has terrible right click - but really the whole idea behind Medusa builds is to help her get absurdly tanky, and then transition into pure damage items. Linkens is a really logical step in that direction because it makes her a bit tankier, while still giving her regen for farming. I don't play any medusa, however.

Except for Blades of Attack, Broadsword, Claymore, Mithril hammer, Phase boots, GG branch, Slippers of Agility (and equivalents), Armlet (activated) and sacred relic. That is if we count flat damage only. If we factor in attack speed or crits/bonus damage procs, or minus armor then Mealstrom, Crystalis+Deadalus, Javelin and Desolator (and possibly more) are also higher. But don't worry about it, you were pretty close.

Battlefury on ranged hero is utter garbage. It is not good, if you're saying it is, you're not very smart.

e: forgot rapier, that's also more cost effective damage, ofc. :D e2: and MKB, also better damage/cost ratio.

Im pretty sure there was a stat post on reddit where it said Javelin is just beating Mithril hammer straight down in term of damage/cost.

You're paying 66.6 gold per damage with mithril hammer, and 71.4 with Javelin. The 20% 40 extra damage makes javelin better, but flat damage is better for the hammer.

So... Mithril Hammer, Claymore and Relic gives more damage when JUST THE DAMAGE PORTION of BF, completely ignoring the regen portion, already is the exact same damage per gold...?

Maff is hard.

Daedalus is more cost efficient than divine at about 550 damage or so.

What?

Dmg portion of BF (ignoring the regen you get for that cost as well): 67 gold per dmg.
Claymore/Broadsword/Hammer: 67 gold per dmg.
Relic: 62 gold per dmg.
Demon Edge: 52 gold per dmg.

What did you say about Claymore, Mithril Hammer and Relic giving you more dmg for the gold than battlefury? >_>

PS: When you take out the regen portion of the BF (since we we're talking about followups to the perseverance... you now pay 40 gold per damage. Suddenly BF beats even blades of attack in terms of cost effectiveness.)

HP regen is relevant when you take damage but doesn't die, and that is exactly what Linken's allows. With BF you don't have the freedom of shukuching without being pinned down unless the enemy is afk.

Damage wise, Desolator is so much better. I see the point of building BF if you absolutely can't farm after your first item, but Weaver is one of the most mobile heroes in the game.
