Question about rtz's actrc warden in General Discussion

    Why does he build necro lvl1 before midas? He even skip brown boot, usually he goes aquila - 2nd wraithband - necro lvl1 - midas. Is it better to pick necro first before midas or should i just skip necro and go midas instead

    Ayaneru   ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

      He is copying Abed build.

        Is there any good reason why someone would rush necromi lvl 1 even skipping boot? And when i see people use this build they only leave their necromi at lvl 1 without upgrading it.isnt rushing midas better for more gold? Sry for bad english

          it probably makes arc so strong and allows him to farm pretty fast

            Is it worth it though to spend 2.4k gold on necrominicon instead of 2.1k gold on midas? And why arent they upgrade it? I see that they only buy lvl 1

              This necro1 into midas bootless build was topson build against lgd in TI.

              Wat necro1 does is it allows u to farm jungle using the 4 necro summons(while hero sits in lane farming or somewhere else). Arc warden sucks at farming jungle. So necro1 first kinda speeds up your midas timing later on too. It basically acts as a farming "buffer" before you get your maelstorm. Necro helps accelerate your timing in farming midas and maelstorm.

              Plus necro1 buildup is easier than midas, provide some decent mana regen+hp.

              As for why they keep it at necro1... is because they use it primarily as a farming tool just to get midas and mael faster. Necro1 dmg output is decent enough to even kill ancients on its own with 4 summons. So theres no point wasting money upgRading to necro3. And they are going to sell it eventually once they get their main items like mjo bot pike hex etc. Unlike lycan, necrobook on arc is not to push primarily, its to use to farm whenever its off cooldown. Necro 1 is sufficient for that.

              As for whether necro1 into midas is better than just midas alone, in pro games it seems like its much better. Since they allow the arc to afk farm for 20-25 mins creating space for him. So going a farming item(necro) into another farming item(midas) into yet another farming item(mael) works incredibly well. But for pubs... depends i guess. Experiment and try

                farm a farming item to farm another farming item easily to be able to farm another farming item which translates into getting bots to be able to split push to farm another farming item ....
