I used to have a horrible time with PA but been doing a hell of a lot better over the past 6-9 months or so. I know this is the QQ thread not an advice thread but if you're going the "farming" build with a Battlefury then stop doing that. It hardly ever seems worth doing in pubs, frankly I've never seen it work unless someone outright feeds her. Everyone expects it but it makes her effectively a second-rate Antimage. Instead build Phase/Aquila/Drums and just start killing everything. Early ring of Basilius will take care of mana needs, then brown boots into phase into Aquila and start on drums. When you have all three you have attack damage, movement speed and mana regen plus a nice little pile of general stats. Everything you need to start fighting and critting everything to death. From that point you can start farming heroes into getting BKB/Basher. I'm making a lot of assumptions about how you're playing her here, so if you're already doing the above then I'm out of ideas I'm afraid. X-D | ||

My main question is when do you stop farming and start ganking? lvl 9 for max blink + dagger? | ||

I start killing the moment the opportunity arises. Absolutely should have Basilius before 6 for the mana regen which allows you to dagger spam with the crit. At 6 I just start throwing the daggers out time after time against opponents. People tend to misjudge how much health they have and how much damage a crit dagger can do so suddenly they're down to like 100-150 life points and you jump them with blink and they explode. Its even easier if you have a somewhat attentive support with a stun hanging around. In general I'm ganking with Phase + Aquila plus level 6; I usually build my stout into a PMS as well so there's that too. Maybe even before those milestones if there's a good opening; I'd find 9 to be way, way too late honestly. Don't never farm, but always, always be looking for the slightest opportunity for a kill. And actively go looking for them when a few items are up. I used to farm up a Battlefury and try to play the farming game too until I realised its pretty suboptimal; PA isn't Antimage and shouldn't try to be Antimage. | ||

My main question is when do you stop farming and start ganking? lvl 9 for max blink + dagger? there's lots of games, probably more games than not, where you'll want max blur before max blink; the 3->4 upgrade is the biggest jump in EHP for autos and overall it's not often that you're even able to blink twice in an early skirmish helm of the dominator is also really good for early fighting | ||

Going bottle rush against a sniper on Lina. I've bought three branches. No one will give me tangos...whatever, I'll be able to get bottle with slave ez pz. Oh we're going to fight over the rune. Me, Centaur, and Axe...lol ez. Except Axe, who is furthest out front, just fucks off after we've committed and I've skilled LSA. So yeah we lose our Centaur AND I have LSA first skill. Whatever, I get my bottle money only slightly delayed. But lol the courier is already headed out to safelane. HA HA NO PROBLEM. OK I get my bottle I can recover this lane disadvantage but I need to get my boots and crow one time to catch up....oh wait our offlaner is sending himself a SINGLE RING OF REGEN. When I override this thinking maybe he was only HALF dumbass and will realize that yes indeed I might need the courier more than he does he fights me over it. By the time I get my shit I can't make it to the rune. Then I get rotated on by two heroes who were missing I guess??? Anyway so Sniper can now freely bully me in lane. Short story we lost. | ||

Just feed your LPQ games until you leave most people will start feeding with you or feed before you so its not like you miss out on much given how shit all random is in a pool full of ragers / abaondoners | ||
