With the update to Lego, do people feel Ring of Sorcery is a must? Being able to spam charge while jungling seems to be pretty awesome, though you defo need RoS to do so.
Any thoughts?
Er no. Just get a Bottle if you really care. RoS is just a waste of gold on Lego lol.
don't think RoS enhances your farm that much, also RoS is only cost-effective when used on multiple teammates IMO, if you really want mana I'd suggest 2 scarabs. HotBL/shaman's are better to get. Jungling was possible w/o charge back then, it is now as well.
Ofcourse. I'd never say to neglect HotBL/Shamans. Just thought it might be nice.
Jungling was possible w/o charge, but it's an attempt on enhancing your gameplay.
Nothing changed about legio this skill just helps him a bit more. And seriously RoS on Legio? What will ppl think of next...
Terrifying Charge only costs 40/50/60/70 mana every 30 seconds, assuming you use it the instant when the cooldown is ready. That's not much mana at all; Ring of Sorcery was never even considered to be "viable" on Legionnaire.
If you REALLY wanted a continuous mana source, just get Ring of Basilius. 0.65*30 = 19.5 mana regenerated per 30 seconds. That's plenty IMO since ideally you're not going to spam Terrifying Charge every single time it reaches its cooldown.

Look for my highlighted text (important information) and grey text (interesting but not required information).
I really only use his new ability to take out shitty camp spawns and to gank the lane if the opportunity presents itself every now and then.
Or later in the game I'll just throw it in there after a taunt because hey, why not?
It also eats up more item slots which Legionnaire desperately needs. Personally I wouldn't even advocate any form of mana regeneration on him other than Power Supply/Bottle, as he usually has better items to get. Late-game this isn't even going to be an issue, so the Scarabs are pretty much a waste of money.
Also, %-based regeneration isn't very helpful early on (especially since Legionnaire is a strength hero), which is likely the time you're going to "spam" Terrifying Charge anyway. I could do mathcraft but I don't feel that's necessary in here.

Neither, I'm not an advocate of getting mana regeneration on legio, for the jungle a couple runes and 2x shield plus some stats should pull you through until your HotBL anyway. Still saying, if you want mana regen for jungling, scarab or mana potions.. aura items aren't very effective when solo.

I think this is a bit off-topic so to get back to the topic:
No, RoS is not viable on legio because he does not need the mana, he needs HP, block and regeneration. If you want mana regeneration so bad, get some mana pots to top you off between fights or make someone pick glacius
its definately not that build, next time try:
courier probably, shield, regen
get 2 rings of regeneration to help with jungling
upgrade shield into an iron shield if you feel you need to
rush portal key
get marchers. get them before portal key if you keep getting disrupted
finish shamans
finish boots or get puzzlebox/totem of kuldra/frostfield plate/wards
get whatever you didnt get before + more wards

I've built RotT in a few games, ones where I've been laning. It's actually pretty helpful early on, and makes you a really obnoxious harasser.
The new skill is it usefull? hemlet->marchers->portal key is it still the better stuff?

I fail to see how a viable Legionnaire, who's entire skillset and effective DPS revolves around tanking, shouldn't get HotBL. Sure, in a real non-EM 5v5, Helm takes forever and a day to farm up, but for true mid-game harass/pushing power, you'd need it. Depending on the enemy, I'd farm it up over Shamans, really.
