NICE STRAT FOX!!! but are you gonna keep on putting the lane scenarios in every guide you make? Just kidding. But i like the item build. Some people go for 2 craniums but i feel thats a waste as your attack is so fast its pratically a permanent stun anyway. And if they get away your quillbeast is there to stop them. Nice guide
Thank you for the comment/rating. Well, about lane scenarios, It provides basic tips on what to do when in certain starting situations. It varies between different heroes. Plus, it doesn't add anything I would consider unnecessary for the guide, and new players may benefit. In other wors, yes. Lane scenarios at every guide.
alrite, thats good of u to put that much effort into your guide. I enjoy reading your guides make more quickly ^^
Will try to deliver that request. I'll start thinking who to make a strategy for.
another hero to add on the enemy to avoid TINY!
he can kill you quill beast at a glance
anyway it's nice
Tiny would be in the anti-melee category. It'll be really long if I have to bracket every hero under a category, so the above are examples of each type. Nice eye though, actually didn't remember him. Must not see him in games enough.
Good job Fox
This is a good guide for Rexxar. I agree with the skill build, although you didn't explain it in a bit more detail. The item build is okay, although I won't go for MoM on him, must be preference, hehe. You also didn't explain when you should get Bashers. But all in all, I enjoyed reading it. :)
@Garfield: Purchasing order is in the purchases sections of the guide. Basher is in the midgame purchasing section.
nice strat
Great strat on Rexxar. I've always thought this hero was sort of useless but this strat has changed my point of view for him.
Great strat, very detailed. Finally there's someone who recognizes the power of the 35% slow greater quillbeast. (Think, permamaim)
Bwahahah!!! Rexxar 17/0!! Whoo!!! This strat kicks ass and ultimate one material quickbrownfox is! WHOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!! 10/10!!!!!
LOL LOL first to create Linken`s Sphere(5700 gold) someone is crezy
@Momchilo - I'm not sure if you are implying that Linken's Sphere is too expensive as a first item, or Linken's Sphere is a bad item. For the former, farming should be relatively easy for you, with quillbeast and Wild axes. For the latter, Linken's sphere is a very good item because: 1) It is a well-rounded item that provides good bonuses to Health, Mana, and regeneration rates(some aspd and armor too). 2) Spell block is very useful in an encounter, as it could possibly stop a potential disable, which ruins your attack. 3) Pieces aren't too expensive. It gets easier to farm an ultimate orb once you have a Perseverance.
nice guide man!
but isnt sny good for that hero?
@fadi - I think SnY is okay for Rexxar, but that's for you to test out. Replace Mask of Madness with SnY if you want to(lifesteal doesn't stack and they serve similar functions).
WA LAU BEASTMASTER IS MY BEST HERO
Y EU BUY THIS KIND OF SUCK ITEM
EU SHOULD BUY 1 ICE SKADDI,TWO BASHER,POWER TRACK,Buriza-do Kyanon
AND Mask of Madness
BECAUSE OF BEAST MASTER THIRD SKILL Beast Rage HE SHOULD BUY BASHER BECAUSE HIS ATTACK SPEED SO FAST NO MATTER WAT HERO TURNED INTO HE ALSO CAN KILL IT
OK DUNNO DUN WRITE THIS KIND OF RUBBISH
IN DOTASTRATEGY
@belveder - learn to spell, learn to use punctuation, learn to type without caps on, and learn not to waste people's time with your rubbish comments.
@kAEm - Thank you. Too lazy to tell off comments I don't understand to get enough grammar and etiquette to write decent comments.
isn't each wild axe only hit an enemy once?
"Each axe can only damage a unit once"
If so it's impossible to kill all the creeps right?
also, can we buy vladimir's offering instead of mask of madness?
@ antipeter - you're right it isn't possble to kill the melee creeps with wild axes straight off, but the axes do deal 360 damage. What you do is you weaken each of the melee creeps to about 70% health, then throw the axes. You should get at least 2 melee creeps and the ranged creep. Vladimir's Offering isn't bad, but this strat has linkens for the mana regen, and MoM gives you lifesteal as well as helping you kill heroes so you probably don't need Offering.
WTF you call this a guide?No dotaportal's guide is better
hey nice strats. I'll be using this strats sometimes. tnx!
AWESOME strat Fox
Very detailed. helped heaps and it was good of you to put so much work into it
@bitch you go to dotaportal if u really don't like this strat. this is awesome strategy. 9/10
@ antipeter
Im pretty sure u can kill the ranged creeps with lvl4 wild axe. I dont know that maths but i have done it quite a few times trick is to throw behind so both hit the creep/hero.
Personally i thing MoM is wasted on this hero due to his thrid ability and you are better of with stunners like Yasha/Cranium to prevent escape (after using ulti which stuns also)
Srsly with this hero i think u can tank neone once u have a HoT. Pudge is no prob to kill with Raxxar!
VERY GOOD STRATEGY!!!
VERY GOOD STRATEGY!!!
Thanks for the comments so far everyone.
Nice build! You can also get another basher in place of a buriza though. Just a suggestion, but a nice build anyway.
nice
I think you dont need MKB... MoM and 2 bashers could make him unstoppable...
Great guide
Basher and MKB should not be together. both will cancel out it's effectiness when bashing. 2 bashers will be fine or spend money elsewhere. great guide.
No comment
i think it is not a good strategy for me ill go for 2 cranium and 1 Vanguard.
I think the axes are designed to be used AFTER the roar... (That would explain the curve) But thats wasting precious stun-time... I would get HoT sooner... Anyway, you covered a lot...
I think it would be better if MKB and 2 Bashers come together cause any channeling spells would be useless against him and the enemy will surely not gonna escape + u still have the roar to support ur teamates
MKB and two bashers? O-o-o-o-overkill!
Well, that's how I see it. I mean, a controllable stun with low CD as an ulti? Also you couldn't do any kind of (even short one) bashlock with that
. MKB and BKB do it better imo. And even then you have that "omg lawl super range aoe stun". But well, OP can answer that question
Hmm. Ring of Basilus could help? I mean, it's fixed 0,65 mana per second. Add in some clarities... or would eul do? Imho Linken would be too much, especially that early. It just delays so much. Good strat, I kind of like it.
Just doesn't fit my style... i'm "a bit more aggressive" in the beginning, getting enough mana regen to use wild axes from level 3 upwards to do some serious harass + creep kills. And if the enemy is foolish, I might even get a kill
. Usually the enemies just get scared and let me farm for free. Also, when I get level 6, I can play WAY more agressively.
That's the way I play, not you. But a basi ring would be a great add.
Hmm, actually... I might revamp this guide a bit soon, updates from some experimental junk. Or at least to make choices between basher or MKB(due to mkb bash cancels any ongoing bash issue). I'll have to dabble a bit more, and see if I have any more changes to make.
I think its a bit hard controlling both the quillbeast and rexxar. For me, I just use the quillbeast if I want to kill a hero, but not using it to harrass heroes early game. If you control the beast then range enemy hero could take a free shot to rexxar. Ryt?? That is only if there are 2 heroes in a lane ofcourse.

nice strat!
should i use satanic or vladimire's offering on beast master instead of mask of madness
should i use satanic or vladimire's offering on beast master instead of mask of madness
@Saiyuki_Hakusho:Satanic would be the better option of the 2, due to Hp bonus.
Add Sange and Yasha,Vladimirs Offering,and Vanguard along with some Bracers to make stronger.I prefer beast rage over Mask of Madness
nice effort in making your guide, but if your target for this guide are noobs, i would recommend you include some bracers, especially you don't go for stat build, this would lessen the chance of them dying
for item build, depending on start money, but i always try to build vanguard first, if oppenent forces me to go home early, i buy what i can with the money i have, but most likely i'll get bracers. my main items are vanguard, MoM, 1 basher is enough, HoT, Aegis, Butterfly
hmmmmm...
i love rexxar and hes one of my favorite hereos....
but if your going to use rexxar on 1on1 battle ur lame...
the opponent will just use blade mail to counter ur every atack...
but thx for the item idea...
1. Nice format
2. Easy to follow
3. The guide itself was realistic and provided good information
Very nice. 10/10
Lol this guide made me lol too.
"The Internet: For its mere existence."
We're all with you on that man.
not sure if this has been said before in the comments, but i'm pretty sure rexxar is an early-game hero (and i know this from a lot of experience using him) and possible late-game (if you buy the right items and keep your cool mid-game).
i disagree with maxing call of the wild early, wild axes and beast rage must have max priority as the basic skills. everytime i'm level 6, i work (with maybe another teammate) to kill the opponent in my lane IMMEDIATELY. i've played against rexxar before, and its pretty easy avoiding being harassed by the quillbeast, even if you're melee (and to know that he's maxxing out CotW instead of his axes and rage, allows me to know that he'll be easier to take down 1v1).
and if you do max out call of the wild, i don't understand why perseverance is your basic item, since its 25 mana cost. if you really want perseverance as a preference it should be a mid-game item, though i don't really recommend it, since axes will always be 120 mana, and primal roar maxes out to 375 mana (which shouldn't be a problem since as the game progresses you have a ton of mana and regen is faster, just by stat +'s).
your basic items should be boots, a couple of bracers, treads. with bracers it'll be really easy to kill the opponent in your lane once your level 6, since by then you have roar, level 3 axes and 2 rage. thats 200 damage from primal roar, 300 damage from axes, plus a fury of hits boosted by beast rage.
as for everythign else, i wouldn't work for a mask of madness, you need a lot more strength than just heart, especially if you're going up against nukers with faster movement speed than you. you're better off with a a S&Y to make up for the damage with more attack speed. an ideal final inventory should look like : buriza, treads, S&Y, cranium basher, heart, MKB(against ranged/nukers)/butterfly(against melees). just my 2 cents in 5 paragraphs.

A NICE one pal, but linken's too expensive at early
How about : Madness, Power Treads, Assault Cuirass, Cranium, and Buriza??
@officergrizzly wow dude. way to waste peoples valuable time writing a novel's worth of useless comments. u must pub a lot cause beast rage is useless early game. u dont need a dps ability in the first 10 levels. u are supposed to be last hitting/denying anyway, so asp is neccessary why? also, perseverence is for spamming axes, not call of the wild lol. u say so yourself hes a early game hero yes?? then u need items that let u fire off your abilites. linkens pearl is a good choice. the quill/hawk are invaluable for scouts/ganks. wtf would ur dps do before lvl 10?? seriously never waste my time again by having to read 5 paragraphs of drivel. oh and brown, a cool item to try on bst is necromicon, as it synergizes well with ult/call of the wild
Thx 4 the build but i prefer 2 bashers 1st b4 anything else and maxing out wild axes n beast rage. Like i said earlier thx 4 build. N o yea im still a bit of a newbie at DOTA
mhl itm pero good stat
well ur getting Linkins and BKB.
IMHO you should leave out the linkins and get a null and a bracer.
this is much cheaper so u can directly go for DMG items.
MKB cancels ur 3.5 second stun
Good strat.. I usually get a vanguard first just because it allows for more hitting. Then i get at least 1 basher but 2 is better. Then many ways to go from there. Cuirass, Heart and Satanic would be best. Treads aswell, so really 1 basher would be sufficient.
it`s better 2 try play rexxar to int...try this item...arcane ring..dagon lvl 5...refresher and hex..better try it
Hey, why don't cha give this guy S & Y? S & Y will make him far more dangerous than the Rexxar with Tarrasque, makin' him an absolute predator. . . Rawwwrrr . . . Or you could just replace an S & Y for it coz Rexxar won't be needin' HoT so much . . . Nice strat anyway!
Yeaaaa Rexxar is the best hero ! I like very much to play with him !
try skadi for rexxar....
NICE STRATEGY! but just throw in a bfury around early 2 mid game
really really exspencive
NICE1!
kewl!!!
I was maxing out wild axes and beast rage but I realized that was wrong since for the early part you'll be using last hits.
hi.. im new here..
dunno is it ok or not.. can comment
I use power treads,basher,assault curias,
vlamir, and heart only to my rexxar..
is it ok?
Nice guide, doesn't make me confuse,
get me think i'm stronger w/ your guide of RexXaR!!
THANKS!
I think perseverance is unnecesary, and a way just to lose money, so I recomend not to go for Linken´s. The rest i think it`s ok
. Anyway, my item build is: Power Treads, Sange and Yasha, Vanguard, Heart of Tarrasque, Buriza and Aegis. If you I can`t get Aegis,I just go for a Basher. Mask of Madness is also acceptable.
why don't u try eye of skadi?
one question and i know its nooby but does scouthawk have truesight?
im sorry if this has already been asked and answered...
nice
Nice Guide
10/10
I think that you should throw in a S&Y (I know that Orb Effects do not Stack...but maim is a orb with 10% chance to activate....so 90% of the time u'll be stealing life)
if i were you, buy a braccer instead of null talisman. it still gives int bonus and suvivability.
good man but when u r doing the item build ups u see, im a noob and i dont know what 2 buy 2 get those builds etc MoM PLS wud sum1 write in detail the builds for all these things

nice build
WHY DO YOU SKILL BUILD CALL OF THE WILD ITS USELESS IN EARLY LEVELS. BEAST RAGE IS A MUCH BETTER SKILL TO HAVE. WHEN YOU ROAR THEY'RE STUNNED FOR A LONG TIME AND YOU HAVE TIME TO ATTACK THEM AND SPEED UP BEFORE THEY COME OUT OF STUN. AND IF YOU HAVE TWIN BASHERS THEY WONT COME OUT OF STUN BECAUSE 100% ATTACK SPEED IS NOT SOMETHING TO LAUGH AT. CALL OF THE WILD IS A GOOD SKILL AT THE END BECAUSE ITS QUILLIBEAST IS USED TO SLOW ENEMYS.
LORDQUAS you are wrong it is the other way around you should get quillbeast because at the early game people are weak sooooo you can harras them with axes then use quillbeast to slow them then you will get a early kill. Beast rage is useless early you get is at level 17 because thats when you really need it. And rexxar is slow right so if you choose to get beast rage how many times are you going to hit them and dont tell me you are going to get sange and yasha you can get quillbeast. you shouldnt use rexxar then if you say quillbeast is useless because he is not
great item build you get nearly everything i get, i think you should get satanic too because it works well with mask of madness. YOU GET TO REPLENISH LIFE SO YOU ROAR THEM AND THEN CHASE THEM DOWN WHICH WILL BE NO PROBLEM BECAUSE YOU GOT MASK OF MADNESS AND QUILLBEAST, SOOOOOOOOO ITS OWNAGE WITH REXXAR
Nice guide but i advise to buy a ring of Basilius for early game cause you need it for many Regen and also battlefury would also be good.
really good 8/10 but try this:Treads,S&Y,Vlads,Hyper(later cuirass),Basher and a high dmge item likeBuriza or radience(dont get MKB AND a basher because if they both bashes at the same time,only the minibash will be which isnt good fot permabash.if the game goes long feel free to sellS&Y and buy Skadi :D
i think that rexxar is tthe best hero for farming in the forest.why don't you change MoM with cuiras?because,in the late game,the aspd increasing isn't change so much,because aspd has a max limit,(i think),nice strat.
drow vs rexxar?
who would likely win?
quite good,but i felt not enough
nice guide but isnt battlefury good with him too?
cool
nice strat but i think battle fury is better than linken in rexxar since roar is
60sec CD and 4sec stun/lvl 3 u need a high DPS to kill atleast 2 enemy agi/int with every roar u unleash..but linken is good to since it blocks spells..
nice strat indeed 10/10
Very nice strat,
I got some differences, but I want you to see my strat on rexxar. Is my first strat so Im motivated to have 10/10!!!! gl with your rating. 
hey gr8 stratey fox......
n ya i wanted to ask that would radiance suit rexxar.
n ya i heard that refreshers orb can also go wit the beast master....is it rite????
hey gr8 stratey fox......
n ya i wanted to ask that would radiance suit rexxar.
nice strat but can i change mask of madness for satanic?
EY NICE STRAT THIS HELP ME TO MUCH
TNKS A LOT!
nice build i use 2 cranium bashers to ensure pernament stun
Just a quick comment. i suggest against MKB although it adds +75 attack ad 30% 100 dmg its not as awesome as it may sound. unless your using 3rd skill primally for the attack damage. mkb cancels out your ultimate so i suggest 2 bashers or one heck even put bfly if u want for that evasion.
How about purchasing battle fury and MKB , If you have those ITEMS that will be a GODLIKE...Oh! I forgot, except of buying MoM why not SATANIC, Of course buy hyperstone too...I am just giving a tip...
and your skill build I think CALL OF THE WILD will be my last opportunity...
Real Good strategy to farm...
I've tried it and it works a lot, my level went up really fast...
Thx
forgot enigma in there, enigma is beastmasters best friend, his disables let rexxar get in as many hits as possible and wreak havoc
nice guide but why MoM? you already hav treds, mkb and beast rage for att speed. try to get 2 hearts as soon as possible after purchase treds and mkb
wow yah nice
i prefer battle fury and basher.the cleaving will do more on triple kills since the primal roar has side damage.
wild axes is a nice skill to kill instantly and very long raged.nice combo.
u can actually rely on a butterfly on rexxar
disagree with your skill build..
i don't think that call of the wild should be take in the early game...
beast rage is more important....
but your item build is fine except linken...you better try battlefury...
well i think it's a bit expensive, but a real pro player can handle it. 9/10 cheers ^^
Under Beastmaster's counters, there is one extremely obvious example that you missed - Tiny. It is impossible to kill him alone with Beastmaster because of Craggy Exterior.
yow... nice Strat.. ^^.. bt, its better 2 have battle furry, i think!! when rexar releases his axe, long range creeps already die, and the close rang creeps has its HP red.. so if u want a real farm.. then u can kill them all in a time with a spread damage... and ummm... its better 2 build a rexar in tank mode...^^ but still good Strat.. i try it...
Nice guide but i Sange 'n Yasha with Vlad's is better than MoM. But then again each player has his/her own strats
http://www.dotastrategy.com/images/smileys/biggrin.gif
Laughing
i dont like it.,.hehehhe.,. i usually get a battle fury,,u dont need basher..he cn kill without basher.,
After comment 51 most of them were pretty much shit. I wouldnt get SnY anyway, just not worth getting them when i can farm for MKB or something better. I really like the idea with mom with your 3rd skill. With mkb its like... LOL...yea you really dint waste 10 mins of my time to read this guide. =D
how bout dagon..?
I don't like the idea of making a madness for him, I use a Sange and Yasha for him, if u want lifesteal you could use a vladimir and my skill build depends on the foe which is in my lane: if its a ranged one, I get wild axe and call of the wild (only up to the lvl 2) and against a melee one, I get beast rage and call of the wild (lvl 2)......
If u make a BKB u shouldn't do the Linken's and instead a Buriza I'd rather a second basher
by the way looting, dagon is useless for him
taka raman ka!! hehehe
Nice,Nice. This Strategy is Pro-rated. Good Job!
