Boots are preference to the player on any hero but some games it's usually best to go certain boots based off the enemy teams lineup.

If you're verse heavy burst, than it's usually best to go Steams.
But in most pub games i find Ghost Marchers being a lot more useful for the movement speed and damage.



Frostburn is nice to have if you can have it relatively early (by 22-25 minutes).
It gives you life, attack speed, movement speed, slow, some damage.

It gives you a little bit of everything going into mid game which is why it's pretty dominant around that time.

Depending on how well you're farming or getting kills you can finish Dawnbringer which will help even more with your life, attack speed, movement speed, slow, some damage and now a farming mechanism from lightbrand and DoT on enemies.

Most of Flints spells are what shine early/mid game to get you kills on top of the movement slow from each auto from Icebrand and the movement speed / attack speed from Firebrand helping you get more autos in to get you kills from the slow, more mini stun procs because of your attack speed ect.

Helps a lot more than you think when you think of it that way.

Depending on how the game's going you can rush a Savage Mace or Wingbow AFTER your Frostburn if you're looking for damage.
You should be on the OUTSIDE of team fights, in the back, never up front unless you're dominantly winning the game and are manning up w/ control of the game.

If there's a lot of stuns and magic and you don't want to go shrunken head (the pussy item in my eyes in pubs) going Shroud afterwards is usually best to get in and out of team fights and get a little bit more damage.
Especially when you're farming and you're about to get ganked (seeing w/ vision or instincts/reflexes) you can just shroud away safely and keep on farming some place else to keep your GPM up.

Also, this goes for most Ranged Agility Heroes (Not just Flint).


Thank you very much. =) I guess it's my positioning that fails when I play him mostly lol.

-yes this is fucking annoying as hell
-this is OK sometimes if you have a teammate split pushing another lane and buying them 5s lets you get an enemy tower
-yeah in HoN this is a huge deal since you have to kill neutrals by like :37 for them to respawn. In Dota you only have to kill by like :55 to get a camp respawn so not as big of a deal

i think the key to dealing with people that do these things is just to politely remind them ONE time only . like "hey man i have bottle pls let me get the runes". if you yell at them like "fucking idiot i was trying to stack" or keep pestering them they'll be more likely to do it just to spite you. that being said, HoN community is so garbage some people will automatically be a dick to anyone even if they did nothing to them just because they're so used to it from playing HoN pubs with an awful community.

yea true forgot to mention that on creep respawn
tbh the way its in dota its very noob friendly, u dont have to time camps and stacks etc.... plus u can stack like 4-5-6 times or so?

its true, sometimes i say let me bottle plz sometimes i get mad, im human still
however, it pisses me off to have to type and do these things every game people should learn some common sense
