Considered to be an exceptionally filthy and despicable specimen by all who encounter him, including his fellow zombies, Dirge has wandered in from the wastes outside to serve the Lich King in hopes of finally obtaining a place of acceptance amongst the Undead masses. While he is still considered to be unpleasant as ever by the rest of the Scourge, his horrifying abilities, which include raising self-replicating lesser ghouls and spreading vile, rapidly communicable plague throughout the enemy ranks, are unquestionably powerful and may just give the Scourge the edge they need to complete their unholy conquest once and for all.

to get another tower.

You should keep the tombstone as close to the second tower as possible but you have to make sure it doesn't get hit by the second tower, when you're trying to push the first tower.

Also thanks for understanding.

488 By slyfe 2010-01-14

axe backdoors) The reason for this is so that you would probably get the whole creep wave meaning more gold and your creeps would be destroying their tower. Then once the tower is destroyed, tele to a different lane and do the same thing. The reason behind that is so that you avoid being ganked because the gap between the second tower( enemy) and your tower will be quite big and the enemies will have an easier time ganking you.

Plus if you tele to a different lane you there is a chance for you

@ zero

You should give him a try he's quite fun to play. Although you wouldn't be getting much kills.

@ mol

I also sometimes finish radiance at that lvl especially if i'm facing heavy harassers or if i get killed.

If you're having trouble last hitting it's a good option to get a quelling blade, another thing is you could try to push fast, with ring of basilous and with tombstone you can push quite fast. A trick is when pushing is to push the tombstone past the tower (just like when axe back

Somehow, this can be the only hero in DoTA that I have not played.

485 By mol666 2010-01-13

heh, well i dont dipose of your tieme heh, but anyways maybe you can help me with a little tip, i try farming for radiance but the earliest time i can get it is like lvl 14, could you give me any tips on how to farm for it?, or is it your tipical, last hit / deny way?

484 By slyfe 2010-01-10

damage.

And amongst all the characters that do get radiance he's one of the fastest farmers for it.

483 By slyfe 2010-01-10

refresher is just such a bad item on him... and that's a horrible strategy.

Dirge is a great support for a couple of reasons.

1) He amplifies the damage by 30% and slows them
2) he has a nuke which can heal and damage for a pretty big amount especially during team battles
3) his decay can be casted about 2-3 times before team battles and about 5 times throughout the battle and the aoe is pretty big... and so is the range... also 4 str is quite decent i think it's about 79 health plus 120

482 By Pantera[DF] 2010-01-09

*the BoT tombstone is good for defending or pushing a tower

481 By Pantera[DF] 2010-01-09

Like, any troll can be given Dagon lv5, Diffusal, Orchid, and Shivas and be a great a support hero but it's all because of the items, not how well it synchs with rhe actual hero.
Sure I can see Radiance being ok on him when he ults but he's still too big, bulky, and unreliable in my book. I hate randoming him and no one ever wants to swap with him.

480 By Pantera[DF] 2010-01-09

I dont really see anything good about Dirge except for his STR drain (4 isnt a lot and its still hard to aim with its small AOE in team fights)
his AOE nuke is AMAZING damage/heal early game, yes, but..I dont ever see him doing much good.
I HAVE seen a dirge get BoT, refresher, Orhic and get to a tower, Tombstone, and tp away to another tower. Only good strat ive really seen with him. Yeha u can get good items but then its the items, not the hero, thats so good.

479 By slyfe 2010-01-02

Sorry but making a guide takes up quite some time but if you scroll down a bit or go back a page you would see the skill build and item build i gave and when to use which items.

sorry again that i cannot make a guide.

478 By mol666 2010-01-02

woa slyfe seems you know your way with dirge, maybe you should make a small guide on him, i know i would be grateful

477 By mol666 2010-01-02

i likes guinsoo
hex+all att+mana regen
i think he didn't need the 15 armor, but it's better have guin+shiva together
btw my build
BoT
Radiance
Guinsoo
Vladmir(improve your zombies too, but if you didn't like just change into satanic)
HoT
1 luxury
BKB/Bloodstone/Bfury/AC
myself often prefers Bloodstone

474 By slyfe 2009-12-06

Guinsoo is if you're facing a single character that's already a threat like a troll, mort with decent items or even if they're fed. Shivas is if all their characters aren't that much of a threat.
