    Been playing (trying to play) a lot of this hero. I have been mostly maxing geomagnetic for farming, and harass. ExO, or Rich Homie, or anyone else for that matter, is there any best tips or cool things you can mention.

    I think overall I have gotten the hang of the hero over the last couple of weeks just need some experienced opinions or how it's done.

                          Throw more rocks, roll around a lot, and then make the ground quake with your zappy zappy ultimate.

                          If you are doing all these, you are gonna go far kid.... you are gonna go far.

                            Support ES in a nutshell:

                            Roll at people, kill people, win game

                                this guys is good es, and btw es supports is legit, when carry is taken, and offlane is taken and i dont feel like mid, i pick es and go support, just need 1 more hero with slow stun and its a 100% kill on lane.
                                but on support i usually get the stun and the roll first, after that max grip.
                                in offlane get 111 and max grip, i've tried stats es lvl 1, didn't work out great (lmao).
                                get bottle in offlane, if you are support might skip it if your team has alreayd 2-3 bottles, in offlane get pt and wand, and try to rush dagger.
                                as support get arcanes and also a urn, and wand is also nice, after this you can go euls, force, dagon, drums and many more, depends on the game already.
                                and btw supports es, lvl 2 combo looks like this, drop rock>stun and roll instantly after that, you can also put 1 more rock to hit the guy faster if he is not really close, and with the slow, couple of attacks, and 1 more disable offlaner is dead.

                                and btw i don't use quick cast, and y0nd said he doesn't use it either.

                                  idk, check my builds, ~4500.
                                  for offlane i go stout shield + salve+tango+branches and try to get some last hits for asap bottle if the lane is not too hard, after that boots, wand, urn, pt, dagger (but if you can somehow get a early dagger, get it fast) and with dagger you can just kill most heroes solo and also initiate ez. after that its optional : euls, force, dagon, cuirass, shiva, aghs, veil (only if you have another high magic dps in your team), bkb, you can also get drums i guess.

                                  for a support late game items are same, but starting is cour/ward, 3000 tangoes (for mid, for u), salve, clarity, branches.
                                  you can skip bottle if there are too many on ur team i guess, also arcanes is better than pt on support for obvious reasons.

                                  i found this in another thread

                                    just wondering, why do u need pt on es? i saw ppl mostly not upgrading their basic boots untill very late when BoT time comes, and it seems to be viable. Imo, es same as timber doesnt need any boots but basic BoS ones.

                                      i buy pt, for extra autoattacks i can fit in early game, sometimes means the difference between a kill and a death, also some tankiness is always welcome.

                                          Havoc can you share what you have learnt in this thread?

                                          Flyingpigs

                                            if you play earthspirit offlane, the most important thing is to get your grip. pull your creep into a clump of trees and get it stuck (preferably the range one) this will guarantee you almost lvl 3. Starting items for offlane is one tango, 2 clarifies and one potion. Usually u can skip the salve if you feel they don't have burst dmg. Then rush bottle. Use grip to get last hit early game. Other than that, I feel like you gotta ask the questions about this hero instead since there's so much to talk about lol.

                                              I haven't learned how to control the roll :) most other things i have pretty on par. I think the stun was what i thought would be the hardest but honestly i think when you start with ES most people overthink the kick. If you do geogrip then instantly kick 99% of the time you will get it right.

                                              Rolling is still relatively easy to dodge but I am working on it by rolling in circles around the map :)

                                              Believe in the OP

                                                Wow, very decent stats. I wish I had similar results in the last month.

                                                    plus is funny but not really useful.

                                                    Flyingpigs

                                                      Hey let's put it this way. Just think of the roll as a bigger and mirana arrow. If you're landing it without stuns then always if possible use it under fog.

                                                      For the stun, you probably found out urself that it is very easy to land. You said you prefer to pull then kick? I find that very inefficient as the pull range is so much shorter. Besides you dont need to pull to land your stuns right?

                                                      My favourite yet most basic combo would be the stun into roll into pull all with one stone. This is where quickcast realy helps a lot. Two tips for this combo would be 1) get into range of your PULL / geometric grip. Then drop stone in front of you and kick the stone. 2) then you must IMMEDIATELY roll as soon as you kick so that you can catch the same stone by pulling it into your roll thus completing your comBo. this is so good in lane as soon as u hit lvl 3 or lvl 6.

                                                      Is that ranked stats or unranked? If rank then good o n ya! Spread the ebola! !! Hahaha

                                                      bum farto

                                                        Bit of both, but honestly a lot of party so I could get comfortable though I have ventured into a couple games with him in solo ranked. Got flamed for missing shit, won the game, learned something new, commend me pls.
