Like, what starting items and skills do i need? cause when i try to jungle with them, specialy with war beast i fail miserably, ive seen good war beasts get to lvl 6 before the mid solo and yet im always behind the lvl of the dual lanes, just dont know.
i usualy get wolves , 3 mana pot and 2 health pot but i cant seem to jungle as fast as with tempest for example.

very good question! it would be nice if someone makes a nice guide which shows how jungling works best with the "jungling-heroes" like wildsoul, war beast, zephyr, etc.

After reading this guide, which details how to jungle with War Beast, and playing with him for a few games with my friends, I successfully made them all ban him at every opportunity in banning draft games.

Short concise intro version, get 2 mana pots and ring of the teacher, lane until level 3 getting your passive at level 1 and wolves at 2 and 3, then jungle. Upgrade ring into Abyssal Skull and get Steamboots. Solo Kongor. Have fun owning face.

I actually tried jungling today with Zephyr.. first 4 levels were extremely hard for me. I started with Loggers, Buckler shield and binds. What did i do wrong?

Trick to Jungling early with Zephyr is Kiting Melee Neutrals, Keeping Windshield up vs. hard camps, and learning to use your heal at the right time.

1. Cyclones
2. Windshield
3. Cyclones
4. Windshield
5. Cyclones
6. Windshield
7. Cyclones
8. Windshield

(You're farming for late game, you don't need leap until later.)

When you run from creeps, you stay out of their hit range but your tornadoes trail behind you... hitting them. Its actually really efficient because the movement of your tornadoes becomes less chaotic and more concentrated while following behind you, because they are forced to travel in a straight line to catch you. You can make a large circle also, to prevent them from leashing so quickly.

At level 3 you should have 4 tornadoes up at all times, and from that point on it should be easy.

:IronBuckler: x2 500g (an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.)
:HealthPotion: x1 100g

Total: 600g

I try to farm until I can get :Lifetube: :Marchers:
Then its pretty easy from there to farm :Mock:

After level 2 tornadoes @ level 3, use the easy creep camp to heal yourself. Keep tornadoes up until the first creep is about to die, then use your heal... and you will immediately refill your tornadoes with last hits on the easy creep camp.

(You don't need a loggers hatchet because your tornadoes are doing the majority of the damage, just grab it at the Outpost if you must around level 3 or whenever you can.)

Don't lane until level 3 with Warbeast unless you're pulling every wave for your lanemate (in which case you're not really laning). Else you're just unnecessarily leeching their XP.

Jungle from level 1, the rest you have right. I prefer Ring of the Teacher and runes to start with incase you take any harass from the defensive lane.

War beast Jungling at 1:

Wolves / Passive / Wolves (etc)
Both ring of the teacher / two mana potions, as well as ring / runes works (You will need to creep pull more with ring/runes)

Summon wolves and leave the fountain after the siren at ~:15 (You will regen all the mana back) and head to the neutral camp. Creep stack it at 1:00 and you already got to level 2. Just avoid catmen and you should be fine.

Some replays of me NC-ing with wolfie efficiently - 22696721, 22682338

Mainly my starting item is just a ring of teacher(basilus) and then get a mask of death to vlad, by then jungling should not be a problem

Warbeast starts with ring of the teacher, and 2 mana pots. Skills should go

Passive dmg increse
wolves
wolves
passive
wolves
passive
wolves
passive
ult
Shout

Items can vary, Abyss skull and steamboots set to strg are mandotory, Whispering helm is a nice item for stacking ancients, Shrunken head is a must vs 95% of teams, behe heart is nice and shieldbreaker works well.

Also, as warbeast remember to juggle your wolves so they don't die prematurely (move the lower HP wolf back so the creeps re-aggro onto the higher HP one)
