I won't stress the importance of the early levels of Plague Wards as this is a DPS guide. However in saying that, Venomancer - even with Poison Sting and Venomous Gale level 1 - basically all your DPS comes from a well placed use of Poison Nova. It's pretty safe to max wards as you will be fulfilling the DPS role you're trying to portray and fulfilling a pusher role as well.
Further additions and fixes I can suggest to make your guide more effective...
I recommend Vanguard over Poor Man's Shield as it gives you the HP Venomancer desperately needs as he is undeniably squishy before he gets Aghanim's Scepter
Black King Bar isn't exactly viable as you should be making the most of your range by staying back and allowing someone tankier to initiate such as Tidehunter
It's quite a viable option to build Venomancer's items in the order of...
...as your Poison Nova will be quite effective early to mid game and will need to be boosted by Aghanim's Scepter to increase it's last game effectiveness.
Gale is the best, its what makes venom a monster when the game starts, the slow and even the damage meen that first blood is easy as pie, nova is great dps but it cant kill so lvling up sting and gale to kill and maybe using nova if there is more than 1 guy is best, nova is better if there are 2 or more heroes after you otherwise its a little bit wasted unless you were using it on a Drow with an alpha wolf since they are the BEST
And you can't skill your skills like that. Only ten points can go into stats, the other fifteen have to go to your skills. Also I agree 100% with NotSureIf. Plague wards early is the most stressful thing to the enemy and wards are good for scouting and being wards. Armory isnt necessary on veno either
didnt know about the skills, woops! il fix all that up now
