You hit equally hard as well. Just saying... Thats blatantly not true though A blade mail alone gives 32 dmg vs 22 dmg (+3 attack speed) of dagon, adding a null gives 41 dmg + 3 attack speed for the blade mail build, at a lesser price. That's nearly double the damage. Your point about the damage done instantly stands, although it should be said that the damage done by blade mail can also be higher than that of dagon | ||

The hero also has very little armor so in a team fight, sure you get your dagon off..but if that's all you get and they turn, you have no recourse. | ||

Both builds are basically trying to turn NP into a different hero; either a bulky frontliner or a timing-based ganker. Neither is really what you pick prophet for, but they work sometimes. | ||

But ...its awkward because you want HP that drums aren't super worth it anymore. Almost feel like the build is 1 talisman 1 bracer phase and blademail...but that is super awkward. IDK anymore ufcking drums nerf man. | ||

again I think NP's item should compliment his team in pushes, which veil provides plenty. The only drawback really is you have to be there before you cast your ult, you can get bounces regardless of where you are... | ||

+6 Strength +6 Agility +12 Intelligence +6 Health regeneration +6 Attack Damage +6 Armor Vs +6 Strength +3 Agility +9 Intelligence +3 Health regeneration +3 Attack Damage The 6 armor is a pretty big deal, and it's just a bit more stat friendly. | ||

I mean if you get a team item get mek. Armor health and pushing power, transfer your early gank gold into early gold for everyone. It's not like this hero has a small mana pool, nor like he really loves lategame in most situations. If we are talking stats alone dl still gives +300 health and some as which still beats drums easily statwise. Something like pike into deso/orchid should still turn him into a decent pusher as well as fighter for relatively little cost. | ||

as for the active (which is weaker now, since you can purge it off), i think that frequency of use is pretty important when you're considering it's value. like if spell's CD is close to/longer than the veil CD i don't think it's worth at all. the more frequently you can cast spells, the better the value pickup. otherwise if you want armor, and the ability to team fight, i still think blademail is the superior choice. purge or not, they can just go on you and blow you up. your shiny stats are nice, but you're still a nature's prophet and game is quite hard when you get face rushed. | ||
