TBH I kind of want to try Arcanes+HotD when Medusa comes out. You get the HP and mana sustain--less damage, but you can stack camps, which Medusa clears very efficiently with Split Shot + Snake, and you save a slot long-term because you'd get Satanic late game anyway.

Turning Arcanes into Treads/Travels + Bloodstone lategame also just sounds hilarious.

don't pay for something you can't ever use.



But Tranquil+Soul ring is 1325. The perseverence costs 425 more, and for for 3025 more, you get comparable regen and 65 damage. 65 damage for 3025 gold is pretty good value, more effective than buying claws of attack for the same sum, which has the best dmg to cost ratio otherwise in the game.

well, for 3025 more than pers you are getting only 55 damage remember..


No, you get 55 damage for 2600 compared to perseverence, you get 65 damage for 3025 compared to tranquil+soul ring.

We´re not talking optimal here, we´re talking situational/viable.

then you need to rework your sentence structure to say what you mean. as it's written you are saying 3025 more than pers.

Bfury is the most cost efficient item in the game. Just get 6 of them.

To be fair there was a period when you would get like 4 Bfuries on Kunka+Buriza+BoT and 1shot everything., same thing with MAgnataur, only you'd get a blink and a MoM too then. Stack Bfuries on Jugger too.

6 bfuries on sven with magnataur empower on him.
Only way to truly cleave.

And about PA farming the fastest, of course Shikyo meant with an allied beastmaster and shared unit control, having his hawk fly around for vision.

First of all, the mkb bug will probably be fixed in Dota 2. Second of all, if you really want the damage, get mealstrom, it's way more cost effective damage, even if the lightning can only proc from primary attacks. All this being said, you really need the manta.... if you go a damage item first, you have no mana and no hp and you die like nothing.... Manta at least gives you decent stats...

Even if the MKB bug is fixed, it's pointless on Medusa because it only checks Evasion on the primary target. The split shots all hit if the primary shot hits. So as long there's at least 1 target without Evasion in range (almost always true, since you could target creeps if there are no evasion-less heroes in range), True Strike is pointless on Medusa.

EDIT: though I guess it's still relevant with regard to Blinds like Troll, Tinker, and Riki smoke, but that's still a lot less relevant cases than all situations involving Talisman of Evasion items.

That's why you have a dark seer too, so you can vaccum them together for maximum cleavage on demand.

With all this Medusa talk I thought we got a patch or something -_-

Also that Phase > Drums build I think TheYango posted on Spectre is amazing. I kinda forgot what comes after that so I went Diffu > Yasha > Manta. Go so fast, gank so hard, max dagger/desolate. Ridiculous amounts of fun. Best way not to piss off my friends when I pick Spectre :D

Realistically it's actually not that bad to transition back onto Radiance after an early game teamfight core. Winning fights with Phase+Drums will give you some banked up gold and some farming space with the overall advantage.

It's just more fun to kill people to get your Relic than sitting in lane lasthitting for it.
