expensive and cheap items in dota.

Posted: Mon Sep 01, 2008 12:10 pm

Some items are expensive to your eyes, but are actually cheap.
i list a few

quarter staff- 10 damage, 10 attack speed- 900 gold
thats 90 gold per damage and 90 gold per att speed- expensive if u ask me, but u dont get this on its own of course

Battle fury- 65 damage and cleave(mana regen also and hp regen)- 66 gold per damage, cheap lol.

please post wat items u think is cheap and expensive( im not saying quarterstaff is ugly, its used to make strong items, so dont get mad lol.)

Quarter is actually very worth, compared to Blade of alacrity, especially on non-agi heroes.

Branches are cheap, Relic is cheap , Demon edge expensive.

Branch is the most cost-effective item in DotA. IMO the least cost-effective item is probably demon edge.

Vladimir's Offering is one of the cheap-but-useful items in dots...

Radiance is hideously expensive. I almost never get it now, considering how little it actually gives you. Set additional damaging effect is useless later and its quite hard to rush unless you have any of a dozen heroes.

armlet is quite the worth for items for heroes that are str or need the extra hp from it. the only drawback is you also need lifesteal items so that your hp won't go too low.
armlet gives
+25 str
+40 damage
+25 atk speed
etc.
for only the cost of 2700 and 30 hp lost per second if you activate.
so if you get this is basically another battlefury in damage but no cleave and regen. Very cheap indeed for such so high damage.

Divine is expensive! Never seen except for one game where we were pwning and desperate Siren got one. She couldn't stop our rampaging troll XD.
