Item Discussion: Vanguard
-
Do you think its a useful item?
I probably buy it only when Im playing axe...maybe pudge as well.
Its one of those few general items which doesnt serves much purpose, but usable for any heroes.
-
i dont like percentages though
but its a good item provided you are going to need life and life regen and not mind a little bit of damage blocking -
haha maybe buy it after u get a tier-4 item lor.
a vanguard or 2 on any hero isn't gonna help you own -
I think it's not bad, I get it on axe
-
vanguard? i have no idea what heros would buy that item..but i think axe with blademail and vanguard would do better?
-
Personally I feel its a early-mid game item to help you to transit smoothly to the mid-late game stage with a stable base
-
ABSOULTELY WONT BUY IT
RATHER SPEND THE GOLD ON SMTH MORE MEANINGFUL -
i dont find it useful...maybe only on axe can block abit of dmg durin berserker call..
-
I always buy it. Msot useful item ever.
-
IMHO , its useless .
-
Its only useful on Axe imo.
I would not buy it on other heroes. -
IMHO hmm..it would be useful
to go againt naix, or any melee heros..
it will save u from death ^^
it is good for creeping..
use centaur n vanguard...nice farming ><...
though blademail would do the job but at certain % chance -
ok its good on th, no need scared ranged, at least reduces some damage
-
this is a GREAT item for strength tanks, especially
centaur and axe. it adds health, regen and the 65%
chance to block creep damage. When added with
return damage from centaur its a great creeping tool,
plus its cost is not bad for an early game item.
Axe can practically dish out Helixes while receiving tiny
amounts of damage.
it is also good against hero
with fast as but low dps (am, naix etc) if they
really harrass you -
i agree with snow I think vanguard plus aegis work greatOriginally posted by dark_snowboy:ok its good on th, no need scared ranged, at least reduces some damage
with TH, with a maxed kraken shell and either vanguard
or aegis you have almost creep immunity and with vanguard
it heals with its RoH attribute which is another plus

I think vanguard is a good item on tide, who already blocks 20 damage late game.
-
you get either vanguard first or aegisOriginally posted by chrisbenoit:I think vanguard is a good item on tide, who already blocks 20 damage late game. -
Vanguard first? aegis first? LOL.Originally posted by imDANIEL:you get either vanguard first or aegis
Tide, i would rather go battle fury, infinite spinning to max out his spin AOE dmg, thereby going blademail if against tank heros like RougeKnight, if not go Heart, radiance.etc. Linken sphere would also go well.. -
the battlefury changes his attack animation to do the spin, but does it gives out the extra dmg every single time?i'm not sure but i don't think so, because if it does, den it would be considered as a bug.Originally posted by gLc:Vanguard first? aegis first? LOL.

it does.
-
if its true, den its a bug, because when a % chance skill becomes permanent den its unfair.i'll go test it later to see..Originally posted by gLc:it does. -
-
it doesnt. Period.
-
it does. check out the replay and calculate the damage done to each extra creep, by the spin.
-
har.. but i hate the walking animation, like some kind of gangster
