Really bad build. Do not agree with it.
Then any good builds you might know of? I played DoTa as Traxex,Drow Ranger, so i really am itching to play Arachna after learning its a hybrid,please help me
Thanks
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!
@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.
@ william, but isn;t arachna’s slow like Drows slow, because viper does do some magic dmg right? and besides viper’s passive ability that does more damage , the low hp they are, isnt apart of arachna or drow at all.
