You should list sheepstick. It's frankly a more useful item on axe than a radiance.

True, but then again Totem of Kuldra is useful for practically every hero if you're lolfarmed and your team needs a disable, so I won't mention every single good/bad item.

This is a cool guide. It really inspired me to play the Legionarre.

Only things I have questions about are:
Are any carries viable partners for legionairre ganking?
Is Post Haste a good idea since you seem so focused on legionairre as a ganker? As a substitute for enhanced marchers clearly, or is the armor from enhanced marchers necessity(you seem to give very little value to the +dmg)?
What is the damage from Axe Whirl skill based off of?

Most carries/semi-carries have some form of a disable (Night Hound has Smoke Bomb and normally gets Nullfire Blade for purge, Valkyrie has Javelin of Light, Madman has Barrel Roll). As long as they can help deal damage to your prey and help disable/slow them, he's fine with pretty much any hero for ganking assists.

Enhanced Marchers currently counter a lot of spells (Mummies, Fissure). But even if they didn't, it's still great because it comes in small pieces so you don't have to farm all day for Post Haste. If you don't want to carry Homecoming Stones and you think your armor is fine late-game, then by all means upgrade to Post Haste. But Enhanced Marchers is the preferred choice of Boots for early/mid game.

What do you mean by "the damage from Axe Whirl skill based off of"? If you mean the DotA skill equivalent, it's Counter Helix (it sounds way cooler too). It's actually based off brilliance aura with a 0.01 mana/second regen, with a bunch of triggers associated with it.

It is a premium guide here mate!

I find axe one of the most OP heroes late game and with this, there's going to be a lot of people playing axe to farm up stats. Great guide.

sorry I just didn't read closely enough on the skill I see now that it's just a static damage aoe now! That's way more technical than I needed!

Thanks for the reply though!

No, my writing style isn't as manly and humorous as his anyway

Thanks! Actually to be honest I didn't even know those forums existed...xD

Stacking hearts won't give you the extra % based regeneration. Anyway I advocate some armor items on Legionnaire because if you go for too much pure HP, those carry heroes will deal a lot of damage to cut right through your HP late-game

Hehe, I believe that all your hard work deserves to be shared .

Very nice guide between, one of the most well-written hero guides on HoN.

Thanks sooo much xD.
Excellent guide. Easy, simple, funny.

My first 2 attempts blew but on the 3rd I gained 8 levels and earned ~1846 gold from creeps, 2221 if it was non-em.


Whoo.

Nice! Don't worry, 6 minutes is a pretty good time to hit level 6 (actually you got further - level 8). Then again it's -em, but still nicely done. Your health looks pretty low, you sure you don't want any help from a courier? :P

Oh yeah by the way, I reduce my starting gold from 3890 to 690 by massing couriers (they cost 200 each), then buying 1 set of tangoes, making my starting gold 600. Of course I drop those items on the ground and then buy my usual items, not taking any of the previous items I bought. I don't recommend jungling in an -em game because you'd get experience way faster in-lane

Nice guide! If I get courier first, is it really necessary to get a second stout anyway? Can't I just go straight to a lifetube, or is that a too big monetary step?

If you want to skip your other Iron Buckler, go ahead. You won't be able to tank stacked camps as effectively, but it still works. You'll sell the second Iron Buckler eventually to make space for more important items.

Very decent guide, like your pictures/screenshots alot.
