Spectre's Lore

Just as higher states of energy seek a lower level, the Spectre known as Mercurial is a being of intense and violent energy who finds herself irresistibly drawn to scenes of strife as they unfold in the physical world. While her normal spectral state transcends sensory limitations, each time she takes on a physical manifestation, she is stricken by a loss of self--though not of purpose. In the clash of combat, her identity shatters and reconfigures, and she begins to regain awareness. She grasps that she is Mercurial the Spectre--and that all of her Haunts are but shadows of the one true Spectre. Focus comes in the struggle for survival; her true mind reasserts itself; until in the final moments of victory or defeat, she transcends matter and is restored once more to her eternal form.

How important is radiance on Spectre? I often play broodmother on team with a Spectre, and I'm able to afford a radiance when the Spectre barely can afford the reciepe. I generally go for radiance every game on brood. Should I buy other items instead and let Spectre get her radiance 10-15 min later, or should I buy it and expect Spectre to go for something else?

Spectre can clear jungle stacks with a Vanguard/ Crimson Guard now, if you have max Dispersion. She blocks all the damage from the creeps but with the 6.85 dispersion she still reflects it in the AOE. It's not extremely fast, it lasts like 30-40 seconds on a hard camp (much less on small-medium camps), but the hero is a slow farmer anyways so it's good enough.

She can spend much more time in the jungle farming and stacking camps with the 6.85 changes if you go for the vanguard build...which is finally legit. Thx Icefrog <3

Love Spectre! High learning curve in the beginning but now I got her strategy down pact. This build helped me immensely but the builds I usually go are:

-Salve, x2 Tango, x3 Branch, Stout Shield (Poor Man's ASAP)
-Phase Boots, Radiance, Diffusal (Diffusal first if my team is not that great), then Yasha. Usually by then the game is heavily in our favor but from Yasha I can go Manta or start building towards Heart.

No they were not. Most LoL heroes were derived from original ideas. The attempt was to create a new kind of MoBa game for DoTa fans. HoN uses most of the heroes from DotA just re skinned and re named. In HoN this hero is Sand Wrath who has the exact same abilities. Nocturne can't travel through walls when using duskbringer and can appear to all enemies on the map when using paranoia, nor is paranoia a global ult.

Umm, yes they were? Also, there's a typo in the last line (just so you guys can fix it, where it says 'at the location that give her best advantage' it should say 'at the location that gives her the best advantage.' I'm not trolling, just wanting to help :))
