Invoker can solo rosh that early? Maybe if you have lifesteal and are lvl 10 where you have 2 spirits up, but I find it hard to believe that you can do it at an earlier level or without lifesteal, which is standard in most 'proper' builds for invoker. :/

yea pretty much you can do it at like 5 if u have vlads somehow.


Yeah I just can't imagine a farming route in jungle where you would have vlads done WITHOUT being level 5.5ish.


theoretically yes. in that case, lets just assume that nobody is coming to jungle to disturb you, the enemy has no awareness at all there is a ursa in oppo team and of course the rosh has almost no bash on you while you roshing.

and lastly, getting vlar at 4min of the game is just, elitist speaking lol or some very good luck on getting nice creep spawns.

ursa rosh at lvl5 is a gamble and if you failed you are quite screwed.

i have seen it many times XD i dont know how exactly you can do it but exort invo's forge spirit can tank well and you can summon new ones right after they died.

Gonna try this next time. Cold snapping rosh would also help immensely I'd imagine, can you think of another spell that invoker would have to break the linkens effect on rosh first?

Invoker can solo roshan at level 9 with a medallion and 4 quas 4 exort. Requires you to skip a level of invoke though.
Summon spirits. Wait.
When spirits are close to getting off cooldown start fighting rosh, just remember to only let him attack one spirit at a time.

Also furion can also solo him once he has maxed treants with a medallion.
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!

I asked about fastest roshing in the simple questions thread, and didn't get a response, but this is my input:

Lycanthrope: you can do it with just medallion, basilius, magic stick, and one salve, at level 7, especially if you skip ultimate. Before the first wolf dies, micro him into stomp range but out of attack range, and rosh will fill up your magic stick. You need 3 sets of wolves, unless you want to risk fighting him without wolves and getting bashed a lot. However, it slow down your farm to go for roshan really fast.

Ursa: I've done it with luck at level 5 with a jungling start with just basilius, 6 salves, 1 clarity. Overall you'd be ahead in levels if you go vlad first though, as it takes awhile. If you get to farm in lane and double pull, you could probably take on rosh at 4 minutes something, but the opponents should probably notice your abasense.

All you need is a medallion if you want to do it that early, have forge spirits summoned before you start when you run in, so you can instantly re-summon when the first set die, and then keep medallion debuff up, he actually dies relatively quickly. You're probably also gonna have force staff, or force staff + drums, which helps a little.

Ew, doing it at lvl 9 by not having a second level of invoke is just gimping yourself. I'll try it at level 10 later ~

You have 6 slots:

After this you should get either Linkens/BKB, taking up another slot. There are 2 slots left. I personally prefer manta as a pushing item. Alternatives are force staff/blink or orchids. Where on earth do you have the space for dagon 5 or eblade?

Dagon 5 is very much a pure pubstomp item when you're just fucking around.


Linkens is rearmable? I thought it wasn't in Dota 1.

If it is in Dota 2 then it's definitely a bug, because I'm quite sure it was fixed a few versions ago in DotA 1

Yeah its stupid to do it that early, I'm just saying that the level you can rosh earliest is irrelevant, its just about when you take advantage of a hero that can do it, and how you can do it undetected n stuff

Not really, if you're just afk farming middle it's fine and killing roshan solo will level you up giving you the second level of invoke, it works fine in pubs, obviously not a good strategy in competitive games.

yep. if youre just farming mid usually coldsnap is enough for laning power, sunstrike to help with kills on the sides and once you are at 4/4 or 4/5 you can easily solo him (no special items needed, just takes a bit longer)
