Manta sucks on spectre.

Why is it in all the guides. it gives 0 killing potential and thats what spectre does. Sure they have dispersion but they have 1/3 the health of you. When u chasing u cant stop and make illusions or the chase is done. I think Skadi and SnY are way better for spectre.

lol manta sux??
Desolate deals pure damage and illusions are great for escapes too.
Also, the extra damage from the burnt mana is not affected by the (illusions deal 200%dmg or 300) so its still good.

mantastyle 's a lot better now

40 sec cooldown, the illusion creating animation's shorter and works best with desolate

also it's good throughtout the whole game whereas SNY just sucks late game on spec

Coco is right,
Manta maybe good in a 1v1, the only potential it could have is if you kept it at the Purge stage. -.-"
It truly does ruing what spectre is about
and images jsut get in way.

On the contrary, manta is good for spectre..because all the illusions have desolate which is terrifying damage if added with radiance(even though immolation doesn't stack). I think she does not need anything to chase as she has a good slowing skill(dagger).

And no, the opponents will not run away when u cast manta. Why? If you used haunt and reality, the enemy will only think of you as a normal haunting illusion that will not cause much harm to him. It sorts of lulls him into a false sense of security. It gives you enough time to activate manta and get a few hits before even daggering him.

No1 is dumb enough to let u activate illusions dude. You'd know if spectre was coming after u with haunt. When you KNOW you're visible on the mini map, and YOU KNOw he can beat you. You KNOW hes coming. Its a second of wasted time that usually messes up chase. and 20% slow aint much when it lasts lik 16 seconds and they have boots. I say Radiance SnY or skadi first. skadi is only 25% BUT its chaser item, cuz as u slowing u stay next to him and get successive hits. Also vanguard pwns on spectre.

do you realise sometimes they cant run? get disables? perhaps in mass clashes? Or because manta burns mana so they cant blink?

I never post or comment about anything. I'm quite conformtable 'watching' from a lonely part of the room.

anyway, the annomaly it is really a superfluous or unnecessary one and is as follows:

Counter_Force[X].... you must be an asshole.
