Tips on Vengeful (provided by the -tips command)
- Cheap items such as Bracers, Bottle and Magic Stick help give Vengeful Spirit what she needs to use Magic Missile and Swap safely and frequently.
- By getting Magic Missile first, Vengeful Spirit should take advantage of this powerful stun by moving around the map instead of simply farming in a lane.
- It sometimes a good idea to save the Command Aura for later in the game when it will give your team more damage.
- Wave of Terror is used to provide sight, giving you vision over an area or providing an opportunity to use Swap.
- Swap will allow you to isolate a key hero on their team, sometimes your sacrifice is needed to win the battle and maybe even the game.
