Farr The Metallurgist (Item Based Hero)

Farr The Metallurgist

Alright, so this guy here is an item based hero, which I have been dying to see since dota 1. His ultimate skill is capable of refreshing his allies' item, much alike of the refresher orb. This is very important in war. His skills are also interesting since he can give an effect of his item to ally hero or tower, or even disabling enemy item effects.

His Smelt skills can be a very effective way to slow down enemy while strengthening ally. This skill can be a very threatening skill even until late game. It allows The Metallurgist to even go solo to kill his enemy heroes. Imagine an enemy hero being slowed down by 24% move speed and 60% attack speed, weaken by 150% base attack damage and 150% base armor. Furthermore being slowed by 30% move speed by static tower ward. He can also increase his killing capability with the very smelting skill, effectively doubling base armor and damage. It seems interesting, but the cost is also pretty high. Although the Smelt skill is not very mana consumptive, to get the most of it he needs to continually cast it to get to the 3rd stack. Imagine that you are a strength hero and you need to continually cast a spell that needs 70 MP each, very. painful. for. you.

Lore: Farr was an elfish blacksmith living in the great elven city of Lyndor. His smelting skills were second to none, and thus he was hired by the King Aratheil to serve as imperial blacksmith. He served hundreds of years under the protection of King Aratheil until one day the human betrayed their alliance and attacked the city of Lyndor. Thanks to steels forged by Farr, Lyndor managed to survive and force the human to surrender after losing most of their army. Aratheil however, died later on due to a poison from a human assassin. This caused Farr to be devastated and decided to leave Lyndor.

He then set on a journey to improve his skills in blacksmith; being a vagabond from one great city to another, selling his service in the midst of war to repair everything in a blink of an eye, creating various towers to appear from thin air to smite his enemies, destroying the weapons and armors of his enemies, he is later known throughout the word with one name: The Metallurgist.

Now, check if your items are broken!

you know... its a nice concept but you will have to include BAT for the wards because the laser wards look SICK(pew pew :3)

Oh yeah, thanks dude I kinda forget about that. I have been thinking about normal creep attack speed for quite some time now I forgot to write it down lol. So... probably around 2.2? Yeah, the laser ward is SICK. But it only hits one enemy at a time and not to mention it needs level 3 metallurgy, so it can't even be taken at least until level 5 (if you take 3 metallurgy and tower ward won't hit that hard).

yeah that sorts it out :D
