A brief guide to jungle Ursa until solo Roshan

Great guide imo!

You can now take Rosh at lvl 4 - I have taken him at sub 5minutes.

My starting items
Stout Shield
Tango
Salve

Dire side I feel is quicker, you start off at hard camp closest to base, hit the choke point at Medium camp and continue to rotate.

Man, it can't be fun to be in a 2 month 23 day game. How are you doing so far?

remember that skadi is really good cuz hp for ultimate and then satanic for more hp and really strong lategame

I agree. If you end up getting Vladmir's Offering, Desolator looks like the logical next DPS item to build.
If you go Satanic, then the only other possible orb effect you can go is Maelstrom / Mjollnir.

Orb of Venom is a possibility for when you already have Vlads and want to enter fights/ganks. I wouldn't build Eye of Skadi tho. It goes along well with Phase until you get bigger items for the slot. Something like this:
Morbid Mask -> Phase Boots -> Vladmir's Offering -> Orb of Venom -> Blink Dagger/ Shadow Blade -> Desolator

What this build miss is Black King Bar. Some games have giant need for it, and one should change the build accordingly.


What I do the most is:
Morbid Mask -> Phase Boots -> Blink Dagger -> Black King Bar -> Skull Basher -> Helm of the Dominator

Which leads to Satanic and Abyssal Blade later on. Also, Boots of Travel into the 6th item according to need. ( Butterfly, Daedalus, Monkey King Bar or even Assault Cuirass). OTOH, This build demands extra care with mana management.


Edit: My bad, Orb of Venom STACKS with lifesteal, so, I guess it should be grabbed every game, at least before going for Desolator in case you go for it.

Desolator is a great iten for ursa now on patch 6.81 becouse makes she able to destroy towers and the less 7 armor is awesome once shes a right-click carry.

Never was interested in ursa, but this inspired me. Wish me luck, i'll post another comment when I end the game
:)

I would definitely recommend Orb of Venom. It's cheap and stacks with lifesteal.

very good guide

Well, Satanic DOESN'T stack with your passive, so this is off the table.

HoT is a great item, and probably one of the best items to go for when looking for survivability, but I HIGLY advise grabbing positining items before ever going for it. Ursa is really dependant on these, or it will be kited.

I would emphasize on building str items to boost his ult a bit, hes an agi carry with high str gain, doesnt really need attack speed or damage items, would put emphasis on items like satanic-HoT for later stages

I preffer being less disruptive with the courrier. It usually isn't flying for the first few minutes of the game, and the solomid has priority over it (no sideshop there). I'm not saying it's impossible, or that it shouldn't be done, but the cleanest way to jungle would be without blade. I could advance further on other options, but then, it wouldn't be a Brief Guide. ;D
