This build focuses on getting a
Sorrowblade for damage and then having a lot of attack speed to dish it out quickly. The breaking point adds more weapon stacks and the defense items are there for safe play.
This is the build I go with, and it may be very different than yours. Please note that no way of building an adagio is
wrong but some builds might really annoy your team.
This is a wp build for being your teams lane carry. Make sure you farm up real quick and build yourself up.
(please don't use this build for a support)
With your heroic perk, a wp adagio should not need to recall too often. Your health will be kept high with your
Gift of Fire, and your energy from your
Arcane Renewal. If you need health, just heal yourself, and always take a small step forward to set their minions on fire, which you can then attack them to regain your energy. If you're on full health but you need energy you can heal a lane minion that's up front and attacking the other teams minions. This gets your energy back and annoys the other laner.
Adagios range is superior to many other lane heroes, making it easy to find places to harass them with free damage. If you get a melee hero against you in lane you're in even more luck. Take note that even with your range you can still be ganked, so be careful, and when you're trying to get energy back make it quick.
You should play it safe until you get your sorrow, and this is the one item you should rush for. Once you have this your damage is pretty good. Back it up with some attack speed and you're good to go. Don't forget to build some defense items to counter the other team, and a
Fountain of Renewal is good for your team.
Personally, I don't use his ultimate at all (
Verse of Judgement), a reason for why I overdrive both my other abilities. And the main reason I don't use it, is because when using it, it leaves you vulnerable for attack, unless you really trust your support. And doing that wastes time, since it could be spent throwing 5 or 6 shots that would deal much more damage. Also, I find it inconvenient to use my
Agent of Wrath on myself, and you might understand what I mean. Being a wp adagio also means that you don't have to be as reliant on your B so much, so you can cast it away on your jungle. It would do well on a
Koshka.
In team fights stay on the edge of the fight, dealing as much damage as you can and having your support tank for you. You should also trust your damage more. Adagio gets insane damage with this build, meaning you shouldn't be that annoying carry running from every team fight to keep your no death k/d.
Take note that unless you completely forget to heal yourself or are extremely under farmed, you should be able to solo Gold Mine and Kraken.
This should be easy for adagio since he has a self heal, and his energy can be replenished. But don't be afraid to recall when needed though.
Remember to play it safe, and ALWAYS build defense for whoever is giving you a hard time. If it's a wp dude giving you the hard time, then build armor before the fountain.
Also, if you're getting jumped and ganked all the time, then you would probably want a reflex instead of a fountain, so grab an
Aegis for that
CP
Taka.
My threat list is totally my opinion and if you think differently than what I have put down then that's fine. But take precautions for all enemy heroes and don't underestimate any one of them.
