Power Treads

Does this item stack with the boots of travel ?

yes

No it doesn't!

Not in a million years!!!

noh

does it stack with hyperstone?

Yes it stacks with Hyperstone, but diminishingly. If you have this and Hyperstone, it will be around 76% increase rather than 90%.

Meepo's clones get to wear a pair of shoes, I'm wondering if by equipping treads, the clones are granted the attack speed as well. Otherwise, treads are useless fo Meepo, and who needs BoT when you can net/slow your enemies and poof back to town.

I'm noob: how do I use the Recipe Scroll?

kicks ass for hero hunters like Mortred and Strygwyr good in the early game too i find

it techniquely still boots, so it works for clones. buy boots of speed, gloves of haste then the recipe scroll which is this. pred.... this is a basic necessity for most heroes

good for early gaming. like it very much

@garfield
atk spds stack directly not diminishingly. what you get in diminishing returns is the increase in attacks per second.
BAT = base attack time (1.7 for all heroes with some exceptions)

( 1 + IAS ) / BAT = Attacks Per Game Second
BAT / ( 1 + IAS ) = Game Seconds Per Attack


IAS is Increased Attack Speed: How much faster you attack (100% IAS = 1.00 IAS)
Each point of agility gives you 0.01 (or 1%) IAS.
IAS stacks additively: Gloves of Haste (15% IAS) and Hyperstone (55% IAS) will give you a total of 0.7 (55%+15%=70%) IAS.

so if you have 45 agi and one hyperstone BAT is 1.7: attacks per second = (1+1)/1.7 = 1.176

45 agi and 2 hyperstones: (1+1.55)/1.7 =
1.5

2 hyperstones gives you 110% IAS. but in the above example, you only get 27.66% increase in attacks per second. that is what you get in diminishing returns, not the IAS

doe sit stack with hand of midas

Thanks eyefury for the explaination... many ppl have been asking about the connection between BAT and IAS for like a long time le... well, power threads is a must for early game. Compared to BOT, juz get tele lor...hahas

ahmm answer please, does the 30% atk speed adds with other meepos??

35% i mean

meh, i could never get into this one. And the giant wart on the leg turned me off it. But i think there are more important things, i usualy buy BoS and then start on my butterfly or my Y*S.

If you have both Power Treads and Boots of Travel will you get +90 run speed and 35% atk speed?

Does the attack speed of hand of minas and power treads ads together?

Does the attack speed of hand of minas and power treads ads together?

If you have 2 power treads would it be +65 ms and +70% atk speed?

@geofree842 no,2 treads/BoT/BoS or combined together don't stack.

wow, i see everyone calling these things threads. they are power treads, please read. also, yesterday, i saw a pudge (already equipped with boots of travel like all pudges should) take a leaver's treads instead of letting me (mercurial) have them. His excuse was that he (once again, pudge) needed the IAS.

well, now it changed...

vers. 6.49 i think...

now for doing it u must buy a Boots of Elvenskin and u dont need to buy the scroll...

thats it i think...

lol

Er, noone really cares about 6.49...

im starting to believe that 6.49 has trojans as well, cos a couple of people that hav it had sometimes have their computer freeze up playin that map.

besides, no one plays 6.49 online or LAN

yeeahhh...

it really sucks...

i didnt like to play it...

there r itens to much OP....

¬¬'

this items is....well...
boots of travel is better,hehe...

This item just got buffed.

Now it requires an additional item, Belt of Strength, Robe of the Magi, or Elven Boots. It costs 1860 though.

It gives 65 run speed, 30% attack speed, and +10 of any one stat. After making it you can just use the item to toggle which stat it cycles between +10 STR, INT, and AGI.

Frankly, its a huge boost to treads that was probably needed, because BoT was far superior.

It was also a huge boost to MEEEPO! Get Treads of Strength (+10 strength) giving all your meepos 12 strength! YES! 12!

Why 12? Well, all meepos benefit from treads so they each get +10 str, and your main meepo gives 20% of his stats to the secondary meepos so they all get another +2. 228 HP per Meepo extra. Sick.

Still debatable whether it should be used on image heroes or not... Images don't benefit from the 30% IAS. And Images with BoT are always slick.

Does it really transform itself to str/int/agi? wow! thats cool! haven't used it yet, we dont play 6.49 that much.

this page needs to be updated with 6.49

You know what i said about noone caring about 6.49? Well, *breaking news* i do! And so does everyone else! Lol

please update treads. Lol if what that guy said is correct, harbinger is going to be SO powerful now, cos of the +10 int

lol its missing one item to make this

it's hard to farm power threads now

Well, now people can't get treads till about 5 minutes into the game unless they farm like bitches.

hhh,maybe icefrog should consider removing the recipe scroll from the requirements.
i thnk it's juz 2 xpensive u know???

I agree, they should remove the scroll. It's too expensive.

Maybe they got too expensive but DO NOT forget that now you get +10 selected attribute as well

i think powertreads is goin to become one of the first items to be built now. in 6.48b and previous versions, people just bought regular boots and upgraded it to boots of travel near late game.

its only 290 gold difference between boots of travel and powertreads, but then the selected attribute bonus is quite an original concept. these new items really changes everyones dota play now.

ahhh now there is a REASON to get power treads! go early stats go!

wow more nice!! this item bcome more pwn!!

Its now expensive than the last one, hmmm... Yeah I like the new one! It can help other heroes with this but Its still doesn't stack with other boots isn't it but if it is stack with others, then I'll put many treads on my slot when I play.

If it did stack it would be stupid Don't you think that the evasion of the Butterfly should stack az well then?

yo if evasion on butterfly stacked, uber pwnage...or a game full of ppl jus constantly missing =D

do 2 pt stack

no treads dont stack... or else you will go over the max speed limit...

Hold it hold it....ITS IMBA! Yes You're all thinking i'm an idiot but think of it this way...normally with those level 2 stat items (robe boots, gauntlet) you get 4 stat points. Here you get....10! OMFG! ITS LIKE A 2.5X INCREASE!! NORMALLY YOU ONLY GET 1.SOMETHINGX INCREASE! WTFWTFWTFWTFWTF use it as much as you can while it lasts. No, I don't like this fact either...

I think the reason it gives 10 to a stat is to allow it to compete with BoT. Since you can only have ONE treads, the +10 isnt really that imbalanced. Its similar to the nature of bracers/nulls:

4 Bracers gives 24 str, 12 agi, 12 int, for about 2k gold whereas a reaver gives 25 str for over 3k gold, why? because you can't have many bracers before your inventory is full, just like you cant have many power treads.

Previous to this buff on treads I had only ever bought treads on one hero, furion, because he could teleport. The rest? Either just boots or I'd upgrade the boots to BoT in either late-midgame or late game.

Now I like to get +10 STR treads on alot of heroes because of the HP boost. It is an alternative to buying 2 bracers (which is pretty standard in alot of builds). 1 boots + 2 bracers = 1500'ish, 1 treads = 1910. I'll take 35% IAS for 400 gold, 2 str, 6 agi, and 6 int. MOST of the time you end up selling the bracers mid-late game to free up inventory slots, but with the treads you always keep that +10 str, or you can swap it to int or agi.

But still, there are heroes that still have BoT written all over them... Image heroes like Nessaj or Naga, Tinker and other int nukers... Slardar!

Now treads are more than just for str heroes, they are for everyone. I'd hate for these things to get nerf'd, they are IMO just fine. Infact, maybe they need to be cheaper... =]

Wht is 10 selected attribute?

BoE=AGI
RotM=INT
BoGS=STR
Wow! It simplifies my build of Double Bracers/Nulls/Wraiths + Treads.

i think most will agree with me that this item was necessary buff, everyone only bought boots of travel

This treads is much more better than the previous one. Many don't go for this. Instead they go for BoT. Now, this treads will be a must-buy item!

it got so good BoT got nerfed so its only 20 ms behind BoT for only like 300 more gold since they cut recipe cost you get +10 of a selected attribute. not to mention that you can toggle between agility strength and int. to shift with the course the game takes. need more hp to survive a gank shift to strength , need more mana for a spell then switch from str. to int. its now really good and bordering imba. i guess i wont be getting BoT as often now... still good for tp but the new treads are GREAT!

i didnt realise u could change the attributes during the game.

omfg so good but if i die i cant get it wen i revive now that sucks

this a great early item. i don't know why some of you think it's too expensive....it takes like 1 more minute to farm, no biggie. This item is great for drow and venge when they start to max out their aura AND get stats first. Then get some wraiths. The IAS and dmg boost so big so early is awesome. I use this all the time, and it works very well. Try it :)

500+550+450+350=1850 is the real price...

it stacks with BoT really tried it

....555

WTF it can't stack with BoT

this is now the cheapest item in DotA:).imagine:ultimate orb is 2250 g and this one costs at about 1910 g and gives u +65ms and +35 AS just insane

It does stack with boot of travel, doesn't it?

mga pare koy ang tunay na astig ay si sand king kasi kailangan nyo lang mag level six tapoos stun sundo epicenter sigurado mag lelevel up kayo agad gamitin nyo lang yung stun tsak epicen ter sa hero ah!!!!!

they're better but more expensive. i recomend this item on an early game.

it does stack with boots of travel. But not with a hyperstone

this item can be clicked and gained more damage!

IT DOES NOT STACK WITH BoT or any other boot. RTM. Boots do not stack with other boots !

NICE!!!

why do sooooo many people call this threads??? sometimes it really does make me question whether it is treads or threads because of such huge volume of people that refer to it as threads

whats more worth gettin. Boots of Travel or power treads??

= diareah

@BlackPanther
It depends on the hero. PT gives you increased attack speed, and BoT gives you a slightly more Movement Speed + Teleport. For some heroes, the Attack Speed bonus is worth than the MS increase / Teleport of BoT.
