EPTSo in all likelyhood the skill order you should be following is R > Q > E > W, with the only condition being pick a point in W at level 2 or 3, depending on how much trouble you are having in lane/ how much you expect a jungle gank. If you decide to make out Q for some reason without a W instead though, just absolutely make certain that you get at least one point in W by level 5. The mobility with W on kitty is too wonderful to give up.

I generally build her pure AP so the best spell for me to maximize is Q. W is pointless to put more points in either way. E is way too mana hungry for you to worry too much about it unless you are playing support Nidalee, which is like extremely rare anyway.

By the time you are actively sieging towers and objectives both your q and e should be maxed or close to anyway | ||

This used to be the case before the heal got nerfed a couple of months back. As of now, the only reason to play AP nidalee is her spears. If you arent able to hit her spears, and if skill shots isn't exactly a strength of yours, you shouldn't be playing her AP. Play her bruiser/AD. I tend to hit a lot of spears. Since I play a lot with my IRL friends, I love the "damn ! that damage!" I hear from them on hitting my Q's and they do agree that I'm fairly proficient at skill shots. | ||

Navi's right, maxing q before e is something you can afford to do only vs really bad players where you could honestly be maxing w first. Good players will punish you HARD for q max. | ||

Shen can do good enough, as in she won't beat him and he'll straight up outdamage/sustain her, but she'll outpush him easily unless he gets like wriggles. I guess if you send an AD carry top (s)he'll beat her? | ||

I just picked her up, but I feel like I can't really do anything except push the lane and heal myself. Lanewick just sustained through my damage and once the jungler was near I would have to back or eat a WW ulti and die. | ||
