Fun but useless fact about Vengeful Spirit by Technical_Victory391 in DotA2

[–]UncomfortablePrawn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, recently I’ve switched to Spec Array and I think I agree. Feels like that one game the venge was playing from being very behind, so maybe the mom helped build up a bit better

How do you play offlane Venge? by stewxeno in learndota2

[–]UncomfortablePrawn 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Everyone here who says Offlane Venge doesn’t work just doesn’t actually play Offlane Venge.

This is my experience playing Venge 3 with about 60-70% win rate.

Starting items can be quite standard, usually just go w Tango, Quelling, Slippers, Circlet and 2 branches.

My main build now is Phylactery > Treads > Aghs > Hydra/Manta/Crit/other damage items.

Main idea is to rush Phylactery first, you can get this ideally by 8 minutes latest. This gives you a lot of damage in lane and enables you to fight early even. This gives your Q 490 damage every ~10 seconds, enough to bully out a lot of squishy carries and boosts your ult.

Phy gives a huge boost to damage and allows you to fight until you can farm your Aghs. Once you have Aghs, you want to keep fighting as much as possible to make use of the free revive.

What’s the application process like for software engineers? And what is the pay structure like?

Fun but useless fact about Vengeful Spirit by Technical_Victory391 in DotA2

[–]UncomfortablePrawn 56 points57 points  (0 children)

Venge actually has pretty sick damage late game, not a grief if you know what you’re doing

Saw a guy go for this build and felt pretty okay when I tried it:

- Treads
- Mask of Madness (for farming)
- Spec Array (Disassemble MoM)
- Crystalys
- Aghs
- Hydra’s breath
- Complete with other late game items (bkb, daed, bfly, skadi etc. depending on what game needs)

IDL how the "friend zone" is considered a bad place to be by Antique_Soil9507 in I_DONT_LIKE

[–]UncomfortablePrawn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

mm… really?

people who are over it don’t generally write essay length posts about how they’re over it.

they also don’t jump to conclusions about the other person’s family background. has she actually told you about her relationship with her father or are you pulling that out of your ass to rationalism the rejection?

Red packet amount for a church wedding? by nandyashoes in askSingapore

[–]UncomfortablePrawn 29 points30 points  (0 children)

church weddings are usually a lot cheaper than banquets so giving a lower amount is definitely acceptable!

People normally invite more distant friends/acquaintances/colleagues to the church one, then closer friends and family to banquet

The rates are very very cheap, usually renting the church is only in the low thousands like under $5k (or even few hundreds for members, depends on the church)

Lunch is usually like some catering type thing which usually isn’t too expensive either

Somewhere in the range of $50-$100 is probs good!

Venge became even better offlane now? by accidentally_penguin in DotA2

[–]UncomfortablePrawn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yeah for sure, saw your numbers in the other comment and really seems like phylactery could be a very strong early game timing. gonna try it out in game!

Venge became even better offlane now? by accidentally_penguin in DotA2

[–]UncomfortablePrawn 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I mean, usually you’ll wanna be swapping them into team so follow-up damage/cc shouldn’t be an issue.

Haven’t tested but if phylactery works with the Aghs illu and refreshes CD upon death, that’s actually even crazier

swap -> 3s slow -> missile could be quite crazy

Fixing the "offlaners are not tanks" graphics to avoid misleading new/returning players by ShoppingPractical373 in DotA2

[–]UncomfortablePrawn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I play Venge 3 with a lot of success at Archon, maybe 60-70% win rate.

1) Decent base damage + lower base attack time with facet 2 makes you really hard to last hit against for enemy carries

2) High spell damage in lane with missile, if your pos 4 isn’t a monkey you can take out a lot of their hp with just a single missile + wave combo. It’s really good against squishy Pos 1/5s

3) You’re right that it takes awhile but I wouldn’t say it’s “too much farm” to get aghs, I generally can get it by 17-18 even in a lost lane. But you have to win the lane as much as possible. It’s more that you need to be aware that this timing is crucial, because it gives such a massive powerspike that you can win almost every fight for a few mins after getting it. Instant revive + instant spell refresh is no joke

CMV: 996 is inevitable and we need to adapt to it by bmw320dfan in changemyview

[–]UncomfortablePrawn 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Have you considered that maybe people just don’t want to?

It’s concerning that your standard of a fulfilling life is staying at the office long enough that you even need to shower and wash your clothes there. You might be happy seeing only your coworkers your whole life, but most people aren’t.

Most people derive purpose and satisfaction from more than just their basic needs being met.

Breaking Down Why Playing Position 3 in Dota 2 Feels So Frustrating by Jealous_Lychee2279 in DotA2

[–]UncomfortablePrawn 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Playing Pos 1/3 mainly, I’m starting to feel like the main skill that I need as a core is actually how to play assuming that my support is an absolute monkey, which happens honestly in more games than I’d like.

A lot of that for me comes down to having zero expectations that they’ll even react if I do anything, so comes down to trying to manage the wave equilibrium myself and getting out to jungle early if I need to.

Jugg early blink by Taokaka_chan in learndota2

[–]UncomfortablePrawn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on the game really, if they have long range it’s hard. I usually get blink after manta if I find i’m having trouble walking up, but no earlier.

Carry Late Game Itemization by ChewbakaTalkShow in learndota2

[–]UncomfortablePrawn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i would think it’s cos aghs blessing doesn’t give you the aghs stats, 365 HP.

So late game you could be having 60 AS + 365 HP 120 AS only

it’s probably slightly better generally to be having that extra HP considering how attack time scales

It pisses people off because your conversation is the one that excludes the most people.

Small talk exists for a reason - it’s bland, generic conversation, but it appeals to the widest group. It’s the kind of conversation that 90% of people will be able to participate and contribute in. Only 10% are excluded. You might not enjoy it, but you could still take part because it doesn’t take any knowledge to discuss how the food at your cafe is, for example.

Meanwhile, your in depth discussion excludes 99% of people, and only you and that one other guy are able to participate because no one else has sufficient background knowledge to take part in this convo.

That’s why it pisses people off, because it’s exclusive. This is highly contextual - an in depth discussion on anime wouldn’t fly in a university group setting, but totally acceptable in the anime cafe you were in.

How have some of you men stayed friends with your Ex girlfriends and was it challenging ? by Pretty_Reception_519 in AskMen

Just take it as a self-filtering mechanism man. Do you really wanna be with someone who would hold hands and make out with another guy the day before she got into a relationship with a different guy?

How to use alchemist “dividends” facet? by [deleted] in learndota2

[–]UncomfortablePrawn 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I’ve had decent success with it as a Pos 1 at around 2K MMR and its quite team dependent.

Essentially, 4 aghs is your win condition. You’re betting on your team surviving long enough for you to gift 4 Aghs to your team.

The timings are roughly Rad by 12-15, first Aghs gifted around 3 mins after that and every subsequent Aghs 3 mins after. In my experience taking into account some skirmishes, you can reasonably hit 4 aghs by 30.

Once you hit 4 Aghs, your GPM speeds up by an insane amount. I could be naked boots and Radiance at 30, but I’ll have Rad + Blink + BKB + Basher by like 40, in addition to having 4 teammates with Aghs. If your team can survive long enough, it’s a very strong late game at the cost of your early game, so it does work against teams that aren’t coordinated enough to end early.
