As a roaming riki, I would always get tranquils, aquila(s), and WARDS. Then, maybe, diffu then basher, if the game was going my way.
This has changed, for 3 reasons I'd say : (...)
For me, "the" current build is : phase / aquila / (dust) / (raindrops) / diffu / basher
Also I'm a 4k noob (well, 3.8k noob, gaben been hating lately), so let that be known.

I’ve got a buddy who’s rank 3 dotabuff Riki (I know what kind of monster) and like 5.5-6k who swears by tranqs every game but I don’t think he does 4pos often. I don’t think it’s that bad.
Prob worse on 4pos since you don’t get any farm priority and u are more dependent on phase for dmg
|
I mean, for me it used to make sense before, on pos4, because hp regen and movement speed are amazing on what was essentially a vision hero.
But with the new ult, I think the solo kill potential trumps the utility, basically. Would not make tranqs anymore, but... as a farming core, maybe he feels like he will get farm anyway, so he still wants the hp regen + ms, for comfort.
Still weird tho, a core riki would lane a lot early, so you don't get the regen, and you have a +5 hp regen talent at 10. Not to mention the infamous battlefury build on pos1 rikis... (more regen). Meh, iono!

I will take riki pos 1-3 safe or off, and I swear by it with getting diffusal by 7 min, Boots, cleave by 14-16 min, then basher. By this time, even with an enemy anti mage, I can hunt him and keep him down and then snowball into something that just can not be stopped with the low CD of tricks. I barely play him roam because I prefer pudge roam. Just my two cents. Many people do not like the cleave build anymore but the ability to Hit all in tricks essentially x1.5 and to clear waves so quick for that rat is just pure value.
|
there's no way ur getting diffusal boots cleave by 14-16 min, the nerf killed riki but the new buff brought him back again imo +4 dmg +1 armor is really solid earlygame buff
|
diffusel into cleave by 14-16 min is very much true if my lane is going well, boots are rounded off shortly after. so in that time not specifically boots but shortly after.
|
well why would you skip phase boots and aquila earlygame that just cant be good
|
poor mans boots I get. they do not need to be completed and Aquila is not required. You can do things differently in every game ya know.

Must be fun with 7minute diffusal

Oh you'll have more items by 7min mark, at least 2 + boots. But the guy is saying you can have diffusial in normal game, which is not out of the realm of possibility but its highly unlikely to get that consistently.
|
Rushed diffusal a few games and have had it by 7 to 8 min. granted I had a few hero kills with a really good sup and bad opposing player. Literally buy only tangos and off I go. depending on the support. It aint impossible at all. Its like my record for having cleave on PA is 12:47, again stars were aligned where I had a great lane supp and hero kills to go with the creep kills.
I do not care if you believe me or not.
