    skills that you learn and items you build for every heroes depends on: who’s your friends and who’s your opponents. you are not play this game alone but on a team. for example: arachna doesn’t needs to learn spider sting if her friend is armadon. she just need to learn precision and stats only for increase damage. that is team work.

    Are you guys THAT noobs at DotA? Who said Arachna is Drow?
    For crying out loud, will I have to teach EVERY-SINGLE-PERSON that Arachna is Viper?

    Spider = Viper Strike
    Precision = Old Viper`s Aura (Viper used to have an aura EXACTLY LIKE DROW`S)
    Hard Carapace simulates Corrosive Skin`s Magic Resistance
    The slow looks more like Drow`s slow, I know… BUT THAT IS THE ONLY SKILL THAT DOES!!!

    So, yeah, the ITEM BUILD 2 and 3 are quite nice… But the number1 is just too bad, dude! :P

    @William: high and mighty, much? Nobody said Arachna is a Drow, Kaara said that she wanted to learn Arachna after playing as Traxex in DoTa and liked the similarities.
