ohhhhh i understand it now, so his dmg doesn't matter at all huh? so around how fast does he have to be attacking to get extra hits in? i.e: which items such as treads + hyper + SY + ?

Yeah, they should explain it like I just did. With the increased radius explanation as well, I think that is something Icefrog should work on - a more user friendly interface with Destroyer.

Well, something like that would be plain and simple. So people can understand the effects and side-effects of all the spells. But that consumes huge amounts of the screen.

Hmm i know about destroyer because i played with him his ulti is pretty good. But ive only played him once so yeah i heard u just get lots of intel and mana with him so his abilities are better, cause it hink it was his nuke that the more mana u have than them the stronger it is, i think. And what is this DOTA extreme version ?

Hell, I have seen Dream_walker kill a N'iax with just the Destroyer and that ult along with a few Arcane Orb shots. The destroyer's strong hand was designed for ints to take down those pesky late strength heroes. Cause face it, you can do 300+ damage per hit with the Orb because of your mana - then end the guy's life with a skill that can do severe damage just because strength heroes have lower int.

I also do believe it also takes into consideration all int+ items. I guess soon, it will be able to use "Aghanims".

Well heroes like Silencer and Destroyer can use Aghanims because so can everyone. Those 2 have been really buffed because of that.

Because the increase of power in the ultimates is done thru Engineering Upgrade. I guess to avoid program conflicts, they decided to only give it to the ones that are affected. If your hero isn't, then swap for a Staff of Vyse.

Who'd get it with Venomancer anyway? (We are talking Veno when he said 'hydra' right?) I don't.

ITs not until you pick up the scepter that you notice the results. But honestly, that shadow strike of his hurts like hell!

Which picture?
Edit: It says in the picture; 82:44.

I don't get Aghanims on Venomancer, but I like Lothar's Edge and Sange and Yasha.

And that was after countless nerfs!

P.S: Nice job on the Terrorblade DotA icon, Chris.

hmm never seen the buffed version of SS or battle hunger so i can't say which was more rigged :\ anyway i think that battle hunger does need a nerf.... it's ridiculously buff early game, like it is harder to get rid of it than silencer's curse and does 200+ more dmg than the curse @ lvl 4..
