Well, no, it's still useful if you're on a sidelane for the reason Sn0_Man said (and Troll breaks towers very fast if you have level 6), so "never build basi" is wrong too, you just wouldn't build it mid necessarily.

I find grabbing the RoQ/Basi mid to be a bit redundant since i'm getting the mana from bottle anyway, and the bonus armor is great too but you have melee form and again bottle to offset the effective health.

In the sidelanes you'll find you need so much mana to keep up with the Whirlwind Axe'ing, and where bottle usually helps, you need to fill in the mana regen with Basi/RoQ, which already gives you extra dmg, minor stats, and lane/push control.

My opinion is that aquila is obviously good, but you run out of inventory space so fast that you're going to sell it soon after you get it. And some other teammate is bound to get a basi anyway which doesn't stack.

Where do you fit aquila (unless you're crushing early game non-stop till the game ends)?

4-4-0-1 until Valve fixes the bug where you don't benefit from Fervor until your 3rd attack.

Basically, you gain a Fervor stack at the end of your attack point, so you don't actually benefit from Fervor on the attack that gives you the stack. This is correctly implemented, but whoever coded the skill thought that meant that you shouldn't gain your first Fervor stack until your 2nd attack, which is wrong. Since you gain your first Fervor stack at the end of your 2nd attack, you don't get any extra attack speed until you're making a 3rd attack.


Wow.. I just didn't know that bug. I was always giving 1 value point on fervor.

I don't understand this hero at all. Doesn't feel that good at chasing down heroes at 6/Max Q and doesn't feel any good getting Aquila and using 6 to push towers.

Feels like he can't do anything alone or better than another more dedicated role hero.

Melts against any magic or nuke and then just falls apart since he doesn't get lifesteal until after BKB/S&Y

Any slow completely removes his ability to chase down any hero since your BKB doesn't come until much later.

You don't always need to be in melee. A lot of people waste so much time trying to hit when they could have killed in ranged form. Also, get phase.

Melee for the extra damage and movement speed no?

If I go range, they just run away anyways

My troll is really bad, but i tried that itembuild above and its descent. The phase/drums grants damage, movementspeed, some manapool and hp early. The hotd for sustain and more damage also felt fine. I do think a bkb is more important then a S&Y because i suck and a bkb can compensate my noobness better then a S&Y can.

Get into melee, axes ult and whack/pray for bash. If they start to run, switch to range, axes to slow, switch to melee and go back in for more whacks. Switch to range if they get out of range again and you can't catch, and whack more. You can stick fairly well that way.

wierd thought here. The new diffusal has more agi less manaburn and the active grants more melee bashes? must be really bad idea right?

Just tried mid and it was marginally more successful, but still lost. Against any dedicated carry, he just falls and what happened again was magic nuked me down low enough to not make my insane attack speed kill him in time before he kills me.

I can usually get up to S&Y and then BKB either comes too late nad I never reach HOTD before hte game is over entirely.

In side lane I grab orb of venom as soon as I can. You can harass easily by swapping to ranged mode, and once you have boots you can hit them with impunity if they let you-- but since you're fast as fuck that shouldn't be hard. Between the orb's slow, your active slow, and any bashes you get, you can easily zone or kill the enemy. I buy stout shield, so you take very little damage from creep aggro while you do this.

I usually buy vlads so I can use other orbs, but if your team is lacking in scaling damage and you don't think you can win by going all-in early you can get a dominator instead for farm acceleration.

If I don't need a bkb out of the vlads opening I like going diffusal manta. If you ever catch someone out they're just dead between the purge, slows, 3man manaburn, your bashes, and your stupidly good attack speed.

If you open with the dominator and don't have a dire need for a specific item after I'd recommend maelstrom to clear jungle stacks more easily. It gives you more aoe damage in fights as well, and is pretty strong since they fixed maelstrom procs not stacking.
