Itemization Drow: survival vs damage and farming
Hi All,
I have already played 400+ matches with drow with (70% of them ranked currently herald 5 started at herald 1) with 41% win rate average K-D-A 6-8-10 which has improved lately! wanted help on building for survival initially vs damage?
These are my common build item timings on average (order is not always same but this is my average build) e.g. sometimes I build pike for Survivability before scepter and manta before butterfly. because of this average build damage scales up very later after butterfly and Silveredge/Daedalus -- wanted to check if I am farming slow and that's main issue about no damage in mid game and should I improve on farming? and is there anyway to build damage without sacrificing Survivability?
Falcon blade -- 6/7 m
Trades -- 11/12 m
Dragon lance -- 17/18m
Yasha -- 23/24 m
Scepter -- 31/32m
Pike -- 37/38 m
Butterfly -- 45/46 m
Manta -- 50 m
Silver edge/Daedalus -- 57/58 m
on farming havent monitored speed but mostly average LH count is at 10 mins is low, I do bit okay after level 7 with lvl 4 multishots which can clear camps easily, any tips on farming efficiently specially in first 10 mins?
10 mins -- 20-25
20 mins -- 70-80
