Great Guide overall, disagree the opinion on killing Petal with CP though (Petal usually build tanky nowadays, but yeah Ardan is a huge threat to her.) Also, why not max the first skill out first? And it seems like putting it as the first Skill helps the early invasion a lot. (Ardan's ability CD is super long before any CD Acc buff imo)

I guess you are saying Overdrive? Overdrive is the last upgrade to a hero's abilities (except the ult), which will either further buff the effect of the skill much more than other level ups can give (For example, Petal's Overdrive on her munions grants two more lvld instead of one), and some gives interesting abilities (For example, Taka's Overdrive on Kaiten negates the skill's Energy requirement). However, keep in mind that overdrives can cause further increased energy cost as well...

Thanks for the reply! In my experience, I rarely spam seeds around, since they are pretty useless except giving enemies money anyways. There really is no battle that will be the other way around if I spammed my seeds. By accurate energy managing, I only come across energy hungry once or twice per game, which means it is more worthwhile to get another WP item/Shiversteel. The second reason I prefer Shiversteel over frostburn is because the recent nerf on Frostburn's effectiveness on...

Thanks! Changed the title on that chapter. I kept telling myself that it should be onward instead of forward (but didn't know it is virgil instead of virgo) and ended up forgetting it every time I edit it.) Yes, BP Petal is definitely NOT original, and as I addressed in the Intro, I took many great Petal players'(Def all PoA players) suggestions and made my guide. I can't really address their name one by one. For the nerf on BP part, it is not exactly "3/4", since the...

Just an expansion on some game mechanics. Only lane minion's health bar turns bright red, and you can still one-shot an enemy minion even if its health bar is not fully red in three situations: A critical strike, a skill shot, and an exception of which a large minion's health bar will never turn red when its health bar is full. It can still be one-shotted in extremely rare situations (Like 20 stacks of Breaking Point). Any hero's DoT kill, and Petal's minion attack will also count toward...

umm, http://www.vaingloryfire.com/vainglory/guide/hero-base-stats-amp-observations-10 <This guy already made one like this (But not as good, I'm sure.) Also, the new update added Ardan, and Joule's base shield status is increased as well. SAW possesses the worst WP damage overall, obviously.

Just saying, the ability path isn't right....

Sorry I did not see your post and respond soon enough, and I will post the difference here for others' reference. Armor will mitigate (Or reduce, so to speak) damages caused by Weapon Power (Basic attacks, skill's WP Ratio-which is rarely the case), and Shield will mitigate damages caused by skills and a variety of Crystal Power induced Damage (Default skill DMG, skill CP Ratio, Boosts from other Crystal-based sources such as Adagio's Agent of Wrath, Ringo's Twirling Silver, and...

lol "He has her minion" And by the way late game CP Petal's munion is tough as hell, it would be a waste of time to kill them, as Petal can basically resummon the back within seconds for more than twenty times (With frostburn and Clockwork), man you have no way to last a fight of few minutes late game. OR WP Petal, which basically do not need her munions AT ALL.

Would it be better to buy a Warhorn instead of Clockwork better? Even though the Warhorn is like 800 coins more expensive, and gives 20% less CD, but it also gives a huge DPS boost against creeps, and an activate ability that tremendously boost you and your teammate's speed. And apparently by doing so you would not need to bother selling the iron guard contract. Alternating Current would only boost once per two attacks, so wouldn't buying shatterglass, which adds around 550 damage to the...
