Why is Magnus Str and not Int?

If you're going carry Magnus, then Desolator is also a good option. The way cleave works is that it applies flat damage to the secondary targets, where armor does not come into account for them, the first target however does take into account armor resistance, so when you stack a desolator debuff on the first target it makes them weaker, taking harder hits, therefore making the cleave do more damage to everyone else. Not to mention a Desolator is made out of two Mithril Hammers, so it provides great damage as well as gives you the option to build a BKB instead if the game shifts in a position where you need it.

I'm sorry kyfoid but I pointed out that Battle Fury and crit make all the difference in my original post... I even gave you the math behind it bro. Don't try and act like you weren't dragging this on trying to be a troll. Not cool man, not cool.

yep , I thought the same . and maybe becouse of that Gauntlets of Strength make Urn of Shadows . he's stat gain is actually low in each attribute. and he relies on items about that.
and also Heart of Tarrasque
