The item was bugged to work on illusions for a while, but that got fixed a long time ago (like 2 years at least--I remember people noticing the bug post-TI2, but by post-TI3 it was fixed).

I like how you write a laundry list of items but don't include Orb of Venom. Oov is absolutely core on spectre, because it works with Haunt illusions.

Oh come on, that's a bad way to embarass yourself. No, OoV does not work with illusions (haunt ones included).

Saw your flair on reddit, and it is Terrorblade instead of Spectre. Needless to say, I am disappointed.

About OoV, not core by any means, it is great if you are playing aggressive ganking Spectre with Urn but it is a waste of gold if you go for Morbid Mask, Treads, Max Dispersion and farm jungle.

ac late core
casual hood mid game maybe not sure
prolly best support is dazzle for late game +/- armour dispersion extravaganza

I gotta say I've had a lot of games where I get shit on in lane cause team picks retarded lanes, just hang on to get morbid mask plus treads and jungle, and ks with haunt. Still get about a 25 minute radiance every time.

i tend to get bottle over life leech. Is your damage high enough to sustain jungling at 100%?
You also get some mana to spam your daggers

To do that you need to spend almost 2k on an item that has terrible synergy with Spectre. Even if you sometimes want the morbid mask to jungle, that still another 900 for the ability to dominate. Plus the reason you're jungeling in the first place is presumably because standing on the lane is dangerous. A lot of the time that creep will not be able to stand there either.

Do you think Hood is worth it over casual cloak?

id say only possibly vs ridiculous combos like veno aa or some sort of 5 nuker comp that you only need to survive the midgame against and you'd still rather teammates carry pipe and glimmers if possible in that kind of situation. also casual vit booster would probably be necessary against such heavy nuking comps.

Yeah, I played vs. a Shaker/Sand King/Ogre lineup and I felt like Cloak+Vit Booster would have been better than Hood

Especially since I went Phase instead of Treads

I usually don't have a problem. I have poor man's shield too, usually put more in dispersion, and it's not bad after you get some levels. Usually around level 8 ish once I can go to jungle.

If my pub spectres are reading this, please stop buying Mask of Madness on this hero. You only need Morbid Mask to sustain yourself in jungle, upgrading to MoM to farm faster is an investment of 900g. If you can get uncontested farm long enough for that to pay itself back to you factoring in the delay of other more immediately useful items, you probably would have won anyway because you're playing spectre

against heavy nukes I think cloak>treads>vit booster>rad>heart is a pretty efficient build up. and you dont need a mask to jungle, just get a vangaurd and youll be able to jungle/not be made of paper for a little extra gold. and the ROH is better in lane

I cant decide if I like this hero better than other i.e. slark for mmr grinding. The hero cant do much early and on sea server a game can be very much over by 20 mins.

Slark wins. It is a no contest. Not even close.

Yeah I thought as much. Sometimes spectre just feels so easy though, if your team plays reasonably youre just a ticking time bomb.

I should be less lazy

have you noticed SEA mmr being particularly bad lately duck? Seems like theres heaps more griefers and ragers since reborn started
