Skill build makes me sad in the pants.
So does the item build.

The force staff is just about the only thing I agree with. :(

Umm. You're supposed to bloodrage yourself... Mask of madness + lvl 4 bloodrage makes you a killing machine... Not getting bloodrage lvl 4 is a ridiculous idea.

Poor Man's Shield is pretty useless if you ask my opinion, better save that money or spend it on a wraith band, and you can level rage earlier if you're confident with your diet(fed), jungling mostly sucks on bloodseeker because he can murder enemy int heroes or carries easily. Especially after getting force staff.

That was literally my response. Rush blade mail. It's THEE best item on blood hunter. You have innate max move speed buff, you do not need SNY ever. Push staff is only gimmicky, along with basher.

Build order is poor man shield > blade mail > power treads > bkb > mjollnir or eth blade

Apart from the lack of Radiance there isn't much to disagree with here! I feel very comfortable with this skill build, I just tend not to upgrade the shield and go Force Staff > Radiance, will be sure to check out Ethereal Blade though. +1.

You need Blade mail, other wise with a push staff build, go straight for ethereal blade after force staff.

Never get 2 Stout Shields.

Here's the math:

1 stout shield: 60% chance to block 20dmg, 40% chance to block 0dmg
2 stout shield: 84% chance to block 20dmg, 16% chance to block 0dmg

1 vangaurd: 70% chance to block 40dmg, 30% chance to block 0dmg
2 vanguard: 91% chance to block 40dmg, 9% chance to block 0dmg

1 stout, then 1 vg: 70% chance to block 40dmg, 18% chance to block 20dmg
1 vg, then 1 stout: 28% chance to block 40dmg, 60% chance to block 20dmg
Both have 12% chance to block 0dmg.
I remember reading this before on an Axe guide and I always grab two on him, so I know. Just saying, there is no point in spending 300 gold when you are not even changing anything in the form of mitigation. Maybe a little armor, damage and attack speed, but the creator of the guide was suggesting that it is better in the jungle than a regular Stout Shield. He would be better off getting two Stout Shields than a PMS for jungling.
