Ring of Protection

People don't give this little building block it's credit.

any suggestions???

useful... very... early game... in fact... its imba for its price.... hehehehehe

only used for ring of basillus then vladmirs

its a great item 2 armor for 175 gold thts great and can be sold later great for Tiny who has terrible armor it helps him out and is an ingredient for Arcane Ring which tiny needs for his poor mana pool so he can spam avalanche and toss i has saved my Rocky hide many a time

wow... ive been playing dota for one year now but didnt know this item gives +2 armor.. i thought it gives only one.

never use this. think it's quite useless

this is really quite good for its price

I've always thought that this item was an excellent space filler early game, because of it's small price.

Where the hell do you buy this? I must be blind cuz I'm not seeing it in the town shops or the secret shop

beazel the weapons dealer

u do realise the 2armour only gives like 5% damage reduction. thats useless at early game.
average damage at early game, 50. 5% of that is only 2 damage reduction at most.

2 armor when used on tiny brings his 0 armor 2% reduction to 2 armor 12% reduction so id say 5% per armor point and stackage goes down per level.

@lupeman: yeah, u dont know much about armor. When you dont have much, +1 armor is worth more in terms of dmg reduction than when you have a lot of armor. The dmg reduc is not purely incremental

Recently, I'm buying 3 of this then tangoe. If I have gold left, branches!!

this is useless early game because you only have about 400-700 hp

armor helps if you have more hp

for 175 its very over powered. great for starters.

Great for its price give +2 armor

just buy 2 branch

it is useful!! you need regen!! /heh
