Also when you get your ult as Arc Warden, get a Salve and a Clarity potion. When you pop your ult, have the clone use midas, then salve & clarity the real hero. It pays back the health & mana cost of using your ult.
Oh right, I forgot Mango is an item in the game :v:

There's two kinds of ways to build Arc Warden. A fun way that requires micro and is a thriller if you really get rolling, and a way that actually reliably wins games with relatively little micro required. Which one are you looking for?

I had an arc build mjollnir and it was hilariously effective
[QUOTE=KillRay;49778957]Spectre you go phase urn in lane. Maxing Q or W is situational. Haunt to assist in ganks but farm for a radiance wherever safe. Yasha next. If you need more HP, get a casual vit booster or if you really need it, finish a heart. If not finish your Manta, then heart. From there go any of these: BFly, skadi, abyssal, refresher. Diffusal is situational if you need the pirge[/QUOTE]

[QUOTE=ASIC;49780686]I would like to hear both.[/QUOTE]
All builds open up essentially the same way
Midas into Travels into Necro3
Always get a Moon Shard to consume, and always buy a Refresher last as a stashed 8th slot
Hex is always a viable situational
If you have a Rapier, sit in the fountain, and teleport your double out. Build it on the courier one component at a time so that there's no chance of feeding it away.
Read builds as followups from Necro3 (you may need to sell Necro3 in some circumstances, if so replace it with a situational or a Rapier)
Fun builds:
The classic rat build: Maelstrom>Deso>AC>Mjollnir, situational items are BKB for chainstunners, Manta for silencers
Vaxastyle's style: Diffusal into Blink into pretty much any situational items
Roleplay as PL: Diffusal into Manta then buy Butterfly and Skadi in a situational order based on how much damage or hp you need
Roleplay as Lina (VERY GIMMICKY AND UNOPTIMIZED): Euls into Dagon1 into Blink into Eblade into Dagon upgrades, sell Necro3 for Octarine Core if your team has enough push already
ALL THE ATTACK MODIFIERS aka glass cannon DPS: Maelstrom>Diffusal>Deso>Mjollnir>Crit>Bfly
A build I sometimes use in pubs when I'm stomping: Crit>Moonshard>Another crit>Rapier>Bfly (or Mjollnir if they have a reason to build MKB against us)>Consume moonshard and buy another moonshard
[B][U]The Game Winner[/U][/B]
WARNING: This build is not actually all that fun outside of the fun of winning, and you basically only get to play the game for one third of a minute once you finish your core. It will win games way harder than any of the builds up above, but you'll probably be bored out of your mind playing it.
Rapier>BKB>Rapier>Rapier>Moonshard to consume>Sell Necro3 for Octarine

Please please PLEASE pay attention to your Necros by the way. They have a bounty of 200/300/400 gold in total per book, and that adds up if they get killed by heroes too much.
[editline]20th February 2016[/editline]
The double copies your Diffusal charges and using a charge on the Double does not affect Arc Warden himself, so you have theoretically infinite Diffusal charges as long as you keep one on the main hero
[editline]20th February 2016[/editline]
Okay so the skillbuild is Spark Wraith at level 1 to secure the starting rune for free and/or get a firstblood by stacking Spark Wraiths on the rune, then max Flux, then either Spark Wraith if you don't need more Magnetic Field levels for survivability, or Magnetic Field if you do, then if you maxed Spark Wraith, max Magnetic Field, or if you maxed Magnetic Field, attribute bonus, because Spark Wraith has essentially fallen off at this point and the survivability from the stats helps.
What are your predictions for the Shanghai Major hero things?

These aren't my final predictions but just filler.

U want it before 20-25 in a perfect game, but get it even slower if you need to. It's such a crutch for the hero I'd argue you always need it.
There's a new build called the Badman build where you skip iron for Manta diffusal, but it's a build you need to snowball with.
I played a match of [URL="http://www.dotabuff.com/matches/2166771851"]Bristleback[/URL].
I bought the Aghanim's Scepter because we were stomping, but now I am wondering how good is it on Bristleback?
[editline]21st February 2016[/editline]
I just realized everyone on my team had an Aghanim's Scepter.
[editline]21st February 2016[/editline]
Wow, I still need to change My avatar to the non-christmas version.
Makes it into a great AoE slow & armor reducing ability, so if you have lots of physical damage in your team then it should be a great investment. All the stats on Aghs are great, too.
If you get Octarine Core you'll also be doing more AoE damage and thus getting healed more, which makes it even better.
If you have a Dazzle in your team and you/someone else with Assault Cuirass, then the enemies basically can't fight you at all from all the physical damage they will be taking. Add SF with his aura to the mix and enemies will be constantly at negative armor if near you.

Was playing in party on SA, three enemies disconnected at the same time, so being the respectable south americans we are, we spammed f9 and won :v:

Seen people attempting this last month, and they all failed spectacularly. Personal advice is stick to radiance unless you are CRAZY good at spec
offlane sandking on my team

he spams sk with the same items every time
maxed caustic, burrow and stats with one point in sandstorm
we won but I don't condone it
Well this doesn't seem right

Invoker hit with the nerf bat again.
Deafening Blast's knockback is no longer a hard disable (affected units can cast abilities and items)
Deafening Blast's disarm portion rebalanced to keep same overall effectiveness as before (it previously applied disarm only after the knockback disable, numbers rescaled to keep same overall duration where they cannot attack)
