There's so many options and I'm always stuck on what to get. The main candidates are:
:DaemonicBreastplate: :HackNSlash: :Insanitarius: :Brutalizer: :WhisperingHelm: :SymbolOfRage: :ElderParasite: :Shieldbreaker:
Can't decide what boots to get some of the time:
:Steamboots: :EnhancedMarchers:
One combination could be:
:Steamboots::Brutalizer::DaemonicBreastplate: :HackNSlash:
Or
:Steamboots: :Shieldbreaker: :Insanitarius:
There's always a tradeoff. I want some form of slow/disable (:Brutalizer:), or high movespeed (:ElderParasite: :EnhancedMarchers: :HackNSlash:) but also need decent attackspeed (:ElderParasite: :DaemonicBreastplate: :Steamboots:) or other form of dps (:Shieldbreaker: :Insanitarius:) while also having a decent amount of health to survive (:Steamboots: :HackNSlash:) and keeping only 1 orb effect and minding the drawbacks of :ElderParasite: and :Insanitarius:

:Steamboots: :Steamboots: :Steamboots: :Insanitarius: :Shieldbreaker: :Riftshards: In that order.
Steamboots are very cheap for what they give and once you get first you can farm up rest easily. You get lots of hp and attack speed and with insanitarius you get huge dmg. You can also switch steamboots to int before you leap to save some mana as well.

i like this build. :EnhancedMarchers::Insanitarius::DaemonicBreastpla te:BehemothsHeart::Shieldbreaker: game should be won by now but if not grab any of these :AbyssalSkull::Puzzlebox::ShrunkenHead::Brutalizer ::Wingbow::ChargedHammer::RunedAxe::Riftshards:.li fe steal is the most practical choice there but for situation purposes ie.. vsing valk a puzzle box is quite handy. bkb if ur stone hide just isnt quite cutting it. basher ofc its a basher who wouldnt want a stun on hit. wingbow, attack speed and evasion will make u a ton tankier + the agi gives a slight armor boost nothing worth noting. Charged hammer with that much attack speed+ the boost on your ult your gonna be proccing lightning like crazy. runed axe cleave is also good. rift shards.. crits are also good.
Last item on pred is really a whatever the hell you want.. but provided u had a good start and a good baby sitter in ur lane this build works for me 9 out of 10 times.

steamboots - Frostburn - daemonic
Would use that for double/tri carry teams.

i usually first check if the team either has rather squishy or rather tanky heroes
if squishy, you should aim for hard hitting with stuff like :Insanitarius:, :EnhancedMarchers:, :Shieldbreaker:
if they are rather tanky, you should focus on attack speed, dealing nice dmg via carnivorous, with items like :ElderParasite:, :HackNSlash:, :DaemonicBreastplate
I'd rather prefer :Steamboots: in any case, due to the extra STR and the AS that is quite sueful anytime
all in all :pred: is a very diverse char, that forms himself through his items, but almost always is an 1on1 hero and casterkiller (poor :witc:)
