Yeah, that's pretty bad. You need the blink - its even more important for farming than a billion mana regen per second.

Bloodstone is good on Tinker once you've gotten all your do-shit items. Like, you need the Big Three that Sn0 mentioned and then one more, like Dagon 5 or Scythe or Dagon 1+Eblade, and then you can buy Bloodstone. There's no need to rush it, though. The item scales into lategame really well, because the main thing you do with it is make it less important if you die. You're not getting it for the mana regen, and the extra tankiness is just a side bonus. You're getting it for the lowered respawn timer.

It's a good item to replace your Soul Ring with, for example.


You get it so you can sustain march spam if you are trying to go highground or for fights in general. Going back to base everytime you run out of mana is fine in the early and midgame but at some point you would rather not want to be 5 seconds away from a fight.
The lowered respawn timer is a nice bonus i guess.

While the lowered respawn time is a big reason you get it, its definitely also gotten for the mana regen. Less trips back to base, more rearms, its very very nice for this.

That's a fair reason, but the big thing is definitely the respawn. Tinker loses lategame situations when he gets caught out twice in six minutes. Bloodstone turns that into three or even four times. It actually becomes unbelievably hard to stop him.

Understatement. Blink is important for literally everything Tinker does. Farming, escaping, killing... Blink does it all. Calling it now. The Tinker nerf will be removing Rearm from Blink.

In general, needing a billion mana regen per second is mostly a sign that you are bad with your mana management. Its rushing Bloodstone is the item for terrible players(of course, with the exception of those few heroes).

I'm pretty sure there's gotta be something better than rushing BS on timber I just haven't figured it out.

Favorite hero to rush Bloodstone on is Skywrath. BS+Aghs Skywrath is just hilarious to play, not least because the people at my level seem to utterly loathe BKB. At a certain point you can just cast zoning ultimates.

Is it the best itemization ever? Hell no. But it's ridiculously fun.

Don't forget to deny yourself with Tinker & Bloodstone if you build one. The ability to deny refreshes with rearm. Don't give your enemies extra resources. (Don't know if mentioned already)
But does it djent?

If you can't get it in 20 mins, yeah probably. Bloodstone on timber is one of those items, however, that you pretty much always always always want on him. Reduced spawn timer, mana regen, and especially the tankiness (and since he has a nice armor buff, armor is less important). There are some games where I'll be forced to go something like blademail first or something, but I almost always try to finish bloodstone.

Timbersaw actually farms unreasonably fast with mana regen (more than just a BS though lol unless u have like 30 charges)
