        It's garbage.

        Ahnni

          ^any explanation?

          CUTNPASTE

            If you are ahead and you don't need utility items it gives you the best dps/cost aside from rapier. I'm sure there is a place for it situationally.

                  Hi

                    ^ Its not worth it to ever spend so much gold on something the hero has innately.. same reason I would get daedalus on wk or jugg..

                    Yes it provides dmg.. but PA usually already has the dmg.. what she needs is a way to survive battles and lock downs sometimes.. what items like bkb,abbysal can provide..

                    So in the end of the day what I'm trying to say is.. the item is a waste of gold although it provides equitably of dmg.. go for something better.. heck even deso does more for her than daedalus imo.. and it costs way cheaper..

                      holy shit high mmr dudes are commenting here

                      danny

                        I thought that the ways crits worked in dota was that it took the higher percentage crit and only used that one. So doesn't that mean that daedalus PA is just a +81 dmg item?

                        casual gamer

                          yes you get it after bkb and abyssal if you don't need linkens or another item

                          Daedalus and pa crits apply independently

                          Vem Comigo

                            wouldnt be better to go for a mkb them?

                                Ahnni

                                  are the crits separate?

                                  casual gamer

                                    YES both crits work

                                    they both work with dagger also

                                    only conflict is that if both crits proc in 1 hit u will only get the bigger crit : ur ult

                                      okay i'll try a new build on p.a

                                      Ahnni

                                        thank sir esperanza

                                          careful dude u get it after ur core items not right away

                                          so go something like phase vlad deso basher bkb abyssal then daedalus

                                          or treads domi bfury bkb basher abyssal daedalus

                                          as long as u have basher + bkb before you go crit u will be very safe, ive done it with crit before bkb and it works if u are very careful only

                                            if you're going with lifesteal build, daedalus can fit in if you don't need mkb, but still wouldn't recommend in most situation though..

                                                if u get 2 daedelus,almost all hits are crits :P

                                                  In most games you will need AC or MKB more. It's like über situational and you folks are making a fuss out of it.

                                                                        TripleSteal-

                                                                          id suggest not getting any of those in this scenario, though. in short, never going for daed on pa, and only get mkb against evasion. otherwise, go for desolator, basher, and ac/moonshard.

                                                                            i don't even know a hero who would get more DPS from an mkb rather than crit(if u don't count in evasion ofc)
                                                                            i think even if u get 2 daedali on jugg it will give more dps than daed+mkb
                                                                            i'm too lazy to do the math atm yho

                                                                                          Same for pa+daedalus

                                                                                          Daedalus gives 220% Bonus for 30% so avrg 66%dmg +81dmg(pa crit isnt actually better on avrg)
                                                                                          With both the daedalus has a 25,5% Chance to proc(85%x30%), this gives a avrg of 56,1% Bonus dmg +81 dmg
                                                                                          with buying the daedalus
                                                                                          Compared to the 122 avrg Bonus dmg of mkb and+ 15 attck Speed i think the daedalus cN be a build on a pa with stats Items like skadi or even Butter
                                                                                          All in all i think even a moon shard can give more dmg than a daedalus sometimes, but sometimes it is a good item with high base attck dmg

                                                                                          Riguma Borusu

                                                                                            You can buy the daedalus if you are really that ahead and don't give two shits. But keep in mind that, after you kill all the heroes, you need to take down towers and win the game until their carries start getting online and start buying MKBs to wreck your face (oh and supports will buy ghost scepters unless they are retarded).

                                                                                            So instead of spending a ton of gold for a Daedalus which will certainly improve your damage by a ton, go for vlads/deso build so you can take down towers and have sustain on the map. Like, PA gets her damage from crit and attack speed from blink strike, but how does it work with buildings? It doesn't. So basically as far as attacking buildings goes, PA will have a typical support DPS against them and we aren't talking lvl 7 jakiro here. If you get some attack speed and desolator you can actually push towers and end the game before shit hits the fan (aka everyone gets ways to counter you. Malestrom is a cheap (but good( alternative to battlefury in this regard as it lets you push lanes more effectively, and deso will let you take down towers as well.

                                                                                            I have seen so many retards in 3k blaming their team for the loss, when they'd just played the "battlefury PA" going into lategame against spectres and medusas of the world. I mean, PA without diffusal (or satyr) is terrible even against an ethereal blade or ghost scepter carrier to begin with and people who have any brains will build against PA which is really easy to do if you can stop her momentum and farm up.

                                                                                                Otherwise, you should probably be getting something to keep you alive/lock down the enemy.

                                                                                                  DPS increase from crits when you have lvl 3 ult and daedalus = 83.1%.
                                                                                                  Daedalus gives you about 20% more DPS(not taking the +81 damage into account), while it would give 36% more DPS to a hero without any other crit.
                                                                                                  I guess it's ok when you think her crit is too random and unreliable.

You can cancel channels (TPs) as well as interrupt spell casts and attacks (you might think this is marginal but it might be the difference in taking 1-2 less auto attacks from a carry dealing 300dmg/hit) and not to mention the bash stops movement temporarily so you can get an extra hit in someone who is running away.

                                                                                                      MKB > Daedalus unless for some reason you really need 5-6% dps over ALL the utility that MKB gives you.
