What the item does
How it works
Passive bonuses: agility 15; strength 10; attack range 130.
How I decide
«I turn attack range into a different position, not just a number.»
Ruslan UkrainskyiSpeaking through Rodya
- 01 Situation
- A ranged hero needs to attack while staying a little further from a dangerous entry.
- 02 My decision
- I keep distance relative to the threat and consider Pike if I later need movement of my own.
- 03 What I avoid
- Stand as close as before, without using the range I bought.
When I would buy it
When I have to get too close. The purchase is especially useful if range is already limiting my fight plan.

What to compare it with
Similar purposes do not make items interchangeable. I compare effect, price and timing.
