+5 armor
+3 agi
+30% slow resistance (This number can be tweaked)
+80 movespeed

Sometimes, I don't really want/need the bonuses from other boots, and just want more raw movespeed and survivability to escape ganks and outrun chasers. The slow resistance and the extra movespeed could help you keep just ahead of that steamboots blacksmith who hit you with a flaming hammer.

[Skyve]

In general, with the 30% slow resistance this item is pretty much equal in strength to the other boots, I don't see why it should have more MS than those boots too.

Well it costs 100 more than the average boots, so I feel the extra ms is justified. Plus, I wanted these boots to have minimal other bonuses, and really be for the increased movespeed that these, along with the slow resistance.

Btw does 30% slow resistance mean you will maintain full movespeed if blacksmith hits you with his slow (30% slow and 30% slow resistance), or does it mean it will reduce his slow to only 21% (30% of 30% slow negated) slow? If it is the latter, I feel like this is a little weak. What do you think?

30% slow resist, so glacius weapons is slow and immobalize so, and with those boots he is nothing...

what about an activation that costs a tiny amount of mana, that cuts the slows placed on you in half (if you are slowed 20 percent you are now slowed 10)? Interesting idea though. T-UP.

I always wanted to see more slow resistance in the game, as it's a very decent idea which the DotA engine couldn't accomplish. I feel this item could use a lot more balancing though. T-up from me though.

I'm assuming his 30% slow resist would be 30% of the intended slow is resisted.

So say, I am :arac: and I want to slow you for 20%. The 30% of the 20% would leave the initial slow to be reduced to 14% slowed (30% of 20 is 6, so 6% of the original 20% is reduced)

Otherwise its OP

Edit: My math fails. But its just to get the point.

[F34Re]

not a bad idea...

1) why duck boots and not the strength or intellect +3 equivalents?
2) Nullstone is underplayed enough as it is even though it's a great item, this will shove it back to virtually non-existent. :(

duck boots because obviously it makes you run faster! :P

I considered allowing the other +3 items, but then this would become a mini-steamboots, and I'm not sure I want that.

Without duck boots and with less movespeed this is an awesome item. Need more boot options!!!!!111!
