What is with shops?

Posted: Sun Jul 29, 2007 11:56 pm

What is with the 2 shops in the bottom right and top left part of the maps hidden in the trees. They only have 3 items: a bottle, stout shield, and helm (I think those are them). Why is this here, and why are there so few items. Are these shops widely known to be there or am i the only one?

Also, did you notice that the main secret shop's vendor's name is Legaras the Vile and the other shop in the trees' vendor's name is Sagarel the Evil.

Legaras = Sagarel rearranged
Evil = Vile rearranged

most likely to reduce going back to base and to help finish a hood and a vanguard

Advantage for Pudge users. Part of his starting items are there whatever build you prefer. Bottle, Vanguard or HoD.

they mentioned it in the changelog for the version that they came out with that they are there to add new items to as they are released and to even it out so say heroes in the scourge top lan dont ahve to go all the way to below the middle lane or back to base to get good items. so i reckon that they will be adding new secret items like the other secret shop so people can buy there. Also it would be good if the shop had tnagoes and SoTP as well so u can get them without havign to go all the way backto base. Would make early game a lot more intense without people runnign back to base every 2 mins because they are being harrased lol.
