Wooden Sandals

LOL 1st comment, I like this item =D

sandal idea very good and very balanced

8/10

wow, i should say, it's pretty good, it's name, "wooden" sandals, derived from boots and iron'wood' branch.. i like the way u think, and the active isn't that bad, but it's a little unoriginal for me, so ill rate it...

9/10..Ü

DUDE YOU ARE IMBA this item rocks very IMBA idea and very useful for melee players especially like Leoric EG : he don't use spells xpect his stun and Rencanration so he can use this to be Da Shit good luck dude 10/10 IMO

so..

what do you guys think??

should i change anything??

maybe the prize or the skill?

Hey It's imba dude!

imba to the highest level.!

hmm. imba for yurnero early game :D

anyway, rated 8/10. cute eh!

Thought the name was nth special until peppo commented on it. Okie i guess, would really go well with many starting items hero tend to get (ironwood branch)

Probably need to work on some stacking issues, maybe lighting revernent unholy aura and slardar's sprint... other than tt it's alright. Nothing special actually 8/10

All around great item for early game definately a first buy

yea. you should probably put some stacking issues such as aura's.

and maybe decrease the bonus 20% to 15 or 10%?

*A very good alternative to treads and BoT though :D
Puts up more variety ingame :] Nice.

8/10

fair item

cool

simple and somewhat effective, beats the teir 5 items anyday.

nice item.

hmm..

how about it will override the other MS percentage aura?

i think it will be so IMBA if it doesn't...

decreasing it into 15%?

good idea, waiting for the other's comment to give me a choice to make..

keep it 20 or decrease it to 15

i say leave it as is.

it is imba the way it is now
seriously
this item must be put in dota

cccccoooooooollllllll!!!!!!

wow. hahaha.
i like it.
anymore ideas there?

super imba. get some mana regen and this and leave it on all the time. no1 can outrun or catch you.

it'll just end up with 10 people with the active on permanently.

should give like +20% movement but +30% damage

NICE MAN!!!!
ilike it

rename to wooden NOOB sandals

@lionwings

That's the second time i see you commenting useless thing (another one is on Hammer of Fortitude)

Do you want to start flaming? Fine... Me, other STs, and Mods are gonna watch you. So be careful with what you're gonna post.

man good for barathrum

i like this item more then power tread.....but la...when i see the picture n the name...i going to fall to the floor...lol

great idea! maybe 15 mana per second for 20% ms is too imba for late game.

anywhere else, its a great idea since there is a wider variety for MS items.

I like the item. However, i agree with the fact that 15 mana/second for 20% is a little IMBA.

*thumbsup*

so what do you guys think??

should i increase the mana/second thing??

20/25/30??

but some of the "strength" guys will not afford it.. :p

@ pinky

HAHAHA I know it's useless but it's just so damn funny LOL
I'm like at the Uni library at the moment and I went and read what he wrote on the hammer of fortitude and all he wrote was 'hammer of noobtitude' and I just cracked up laughing LOL
was embarrassing but I couldn't help laughing..hahahaha

I dunno why but I got a good laugh out of those posts XD..

since the item includes 3 ironwood branch, which +3 to all attributes, why not increase the +5 attributes a higher attributes, like +10 attributes?
Like that the price for the scroll/recipe will be more worth it.
Anyway, it was a superb idea for chasing heroes especially for techie for suiciding, i hope ice-frog will add this item in for the next version of dota-allstars. it was great

@ lionwings
Hey dude, people have great ideas, what about you huh? sit back and discriminate people's ideas? Are you an idiot? Do you seriously know how to play dota?
Please be careful on how you comment, unless you are an idiot.

@lionwings
sheeeshhh....did you eat something that just died...phew,coz,boy!your mouth sure stinks...

@pinky
you dont need to keep an eye on him,give me 2 balls of yarn and 10 inch needle,il do the job for you

dun think so..

PT's are 500+550+450+350 = 1950 only

mine are 1750

PT vs WS
1950 vs 1750
+5 speed - 20% speed increase during activation
+10 stats t0 ONE attribute - +10 to all stats
+35% attack speed...


dont you think the status increase into 10 will be imba?

15 mana/sec means permament using it late game, means about 450ms for the hero, and that yells IMBAH! Pls make it like 70-80 mana, so it can be used only for escaping like 5 seconds so u don't die, not for 450 ms all day long.... Also u can make it like 80 mana/sec when u are fleeing to the base, but 30mana/sec when u are going to the enemy base - so it ensures u won't lose all ur mana if u chase, but if u wanna run... u have to save it :)

I think it'll be hard to code the item so to do it as you described..
ridiculous notion

yeah i think a 3rd type of shoe is needed. now we got BOT, tread and this. Very good stats too and it's balanced. The override part..... not my fav but balances out

yeah....

good point extacy..

so..

activation = 50
drains 35 mana/second
increase 20% speed?

need votes or changes so that i can make up my mind...

and by the way...

is 35mana /sec too low for strength or agi guys??

just asking..

sorry for double posting!!

just think about another idea..

3 options... please vote guys..

first:
just keep it..

second:
upon activation takes 50 mana
drains 35mana/second
increase 20% MS

third:
upon activation takes no mana
drains 85mana/second
increase 35% MS and 15 armor

what do you guys think??

Don't think the armour part will be a good idea..
shoes dont give armour! they gives speed!

i say when activated, it will increase ms +20% for 10 sec.

good for chasing heros...
i like it these works great on techies and dirge!

10/10 heheh...

on the comment # 39:


man i like the third one!

i gives armor in it when it IS activated..

maybe to run or something..

another votes plz..

1 for number 3

When I saw the name "Wooden Sandals",

I thought "Something providing MS Stackable with Bot/BoS/PT".

Am I Right????

well not the second one of course, lol
and then the 3rd one drains too much mana (besides, y would u need armor when you r chasing, and when you are escaping, imo the whole team would focus fire/stun on u and the armor would just be useless; also the mana drained almost equal to pulse nova so non-int heros might not be able to support it)
so just keep it

wrong for spark angel

it IS one of the shoes'

but it is sandals.. instead of a shoe..

i think we will need the third kind of shoes... not just BOT and PT..

1 for 1
1 for 3...

Well on techies u need travel...so no need!!

try putting it to be disabled by some heavy heroes like centaur chaos knight cause their movement speed are quite fast already. if they use this item might be imba..cause wooden sandals will break if heavy heroes wears it pudge..

I like the iten. Very good and very powerful.

The sprint hability maybe could be somenthing like this:

Colddown 30 sec
Mana cost: 50
Upon activation, drains 25 mana per second to increase the user's movement speed by 20% for 10 seconds

hmmmm, its a wooden clog, not sandals! but nevermind, rhasta and goblin techs are teh ones really need this since they have high mana that can run really fast and they are the slowest turtles!

@XhellspawnX

wooden sandals is faster than BoT.. (not for the tele of course)

techies (280)
with bot -> 365
with wooden -> 340
with wooden (activated) -> 340 + 68 = 408

@raika
i see.. ^^
nevermind...

@dota_pro_player
if i agree.. the skill is just like mask of madness
(75% IAS, 15%IMS, 25% damage taken)

just look a like

what i think is making it has no cooldown and activation time but cannot be forever...

don't have any idea..

its quite imba...with no cooldown and low mana consumption.. btw,the idea for Sprint is quite good but make it 20 mana drain per sec...8/10

The MS Increase is a bit too much

this item rocks!!
the mana drained is a bit mush but in late game that's just funny!

ups...
i thought of it, ur item is too imba! mana cost is nothing, make more mana drained cuz item just too imba!!!

increasing mana cost to be 50
increasing cooldown to be 5 second (cannot be stopped in that 5 second, stopping = another cooldown)
increasing draining mana to be 25/second

how about that?
agree?

Change to mana you loose to 1-2% every second.
otherwise this item is too good for heroes with alot of mana.

hihi...i'd rather wear boots in the battlefield....(joke!)

hmmm...

percentage uh??

good idea, not imba for spell casters..

great!

how about 4% from max MP persecond?

so it is just limited to 25 sec...

It's very unbalanced..



I'll rate it 2/10

you need to compare it to other items to see whether its imba or not.
s&y(+15%ms) makes some heroes to tough guys but since lot of str/agi its useless for int, although rhasta would love it :)

the thing is, you need to make it either "hero specific"->those heroes who might get imba wouldnt purchase it cause of wrong attributes.
OR
you shrink it to its main use (sprint).
in that case it fills an item slot (15mana/s) and gives you 'only' +60ms+20%ms and little stats
...

...
anyway since you want to be an early game item (right?) take the 2nd choice.
my suggestion is to increase the activation manacost to 60-80.
in early game you only use for chasing/escaping. in late game you can keep it running.
just compare to electric rave: 15mana cost per sec and +80% attack speed :)

time out!
how bout the name = wooden "geta" sandal
as the icon show japanese wooden sandal aka 'geta' anyway it's just a suggestion.

as for the active click:
how bout making it look like dark seer skill/crow skill, so rather than the skill draining mana per sec, the skill should be upon clicking, the bearer gain 500 movement speed no more no less and cannot be changed, for how bout 15 sec duration, and the cooldown should be fast, faster than lothar or maybe the same as lothar.

great item bro.

@xellsys

umm... the skill overrides item MS percentage...

*after looking above

my GOD i forgot to write that.. --"

and i wanted this item to be a early-late item... so this item can be the third choice of shoes'

this item gives "only" that attribute right?

@S_o_F
hmmm...

"geta"

a bit weird...

^^

can't think of any idea for it

good item
its nice to see someone making a smaller item
kind of like boots and treads but different

8/10

I don't like this item. It sucks

"geta" is a japanese word, it means wooden sandals (as the picture shows a japanese wooden sandals). "geta" usually worn with kimono (japanese dress). ever heard of it?

nice.. very nice :)
i think that in dota maps have little items. They must add some more like thoose sandals :)
10/10

oh i_am_me
there a lot of comments haha..
nice item..
will sprint of the sandals amplifies
magic spells just like slardar's sprint?

no it isn't...

so that's why i put "mana/sec" in it..

but many people thinks that doesn't really... suits the hero (IMBA)

so i need more improving comments

anyway a cool item thumbs up :)

perfect the way it is, i like the fact that it gives stats, might even replace power treads in my game

good item and useful but mana drain a bit too low make it a bit higher

Great idea. Balanced and still a great tool for some heroes. I give 9/10.

i think u sloud decrease the increase % from 20 to 15 or 10 & increase just the mana cost like to 50.no doubt its great for slow heros.great item man

its not sloud its should anyway i like it

Decent Item MaB a Little Nerf Will Do =p

i really like it cuz this is the first item that is a sandals give it 10/10 votes

brilliant idea verry good alternative to treads and BoT,Hillarious at the same time.

9/10 from me

This is a pretty good item

hmm.. isnt mana cost 15/second too much? i mean.. tankers cant get this unless they have like.. BFury and talisman... or else they'll start losing mana like crazy and wont be able to cast any spells. kinda like Storm's rave.. but without AS.. add AS? overall! 10/10!

Great invention!! I will buy this instead of PT or BoT. It helps my hero during early and mid game.

Hmm, I would like the item its just the name that bothers me. I mean I wouldnt like to run with sandals

xelent idea but... the theme is that it drains a lot mp. this would make it useful only for int heroes, but they dont need to run to kill someone... i dont know if you catch me... well. str and agi heroes want it. so, decrease the mp cost and its great... 9/10
those items would ever be in a real DotA game??????

Nice item, love the name indeed.

But a +20% on a hero that's average speed without the activation is 360 gets 432, that's even more wicked than Boots of travel and much cheaper.
I say you decrease the procentage + on activation, or make the mana cost larger or the item more expensive.
8/10

Keep up the good work =)

Good thinking but the recepie scrool looks a little bit 2 expensive

OMG SIMBA ITEM

i think this is a nice item.
but i suggest making the activation mana cost to 50 then drains 3%-4% mana/second.

Good
I'm waiting to see this in the next version of frozen throne

my favorite instead of PT

i like it =)

Very nice idea!^^

Dam this is a great idea! How come Icefrog doesnt put any of these items in? Shouldnt take that long to do it, test it, and make necessary changes right?

i think that it should be draining a percentage of you mana, the full mana and not just the current. Like maybe 5 to 10% per sec. Prolly sounds much but seriously it will be to OP otherwise.

heheh, this item is very good, can also be used for barathrum, but the 15 mana per sec is too much, i think you can make it 10 because str heroes will not gain from this items

wow lakas ng item!

why not 2 boots of speed??

super good wow!

lol
3 branch to make a wooden sandal
not lots of item use the branch so this shoud be a nice item

9/10

Love the idea and concept...

its about time the ironwood branch gets some glory!!
