This Strategy is for the DotA Strategy's DotActics. This is also a guide for Players who are having a little trouble with Enigma. This guide will shows how Enigma is played with the Necronomicon Build. Enigma is a support hero. He is the one who disables the whole enemy team for your allies to kill.

Great guide. 7/10 maybe or more. Thanks yo

202 By Blizz_W 2009-11-13

Bad guide 4/10
U can solo with him and conversionin mid-late game is not good, since it's easier to push in start, instead of needing help pusing after early game
Also I use them for hero kill or defending meself from tanks and high dmg hero with low up

201 By Clape 2009-10-19

dude i think this ain't a bad guide but why stats at lvl 8,9 n 10,ain't it better to tak conversion malefice at that lvl's?

200 By TrinityShade 2009-10-09

i would max i would max ulti at 15 and 16, i mean, sacrifice some dmg that can be very useful for a little bit more survivability? by that time lmid late game heros shud be able to kill u easy wether u have that xtra 50hp or nt

199 By pixie 2009-09-21

198 By holyslayer 2009-09-19

197 By holyslayer 2009-09-19

good guide 8/10 ^^

the only thing is i reeplase tango and ironwood with a bottle (it's better than many thnik) and i first buy Phase boots... scape tool and less useless-time when you go to buy something. (you want have that time to gank and farm).

PD: now I (L) dagger ^^.... refresher+BH it's only for have BH all the time but not to use it at the same thime.

196 By RaiseTheDead 2009-09-13

ok...... i prefer 2 learn 3 1 3 1 3 ulti
can push realli fast like tat

195 By quaswexexort 2009-08-24

Oh i forgot Dagger

194 By quaswexexort 2009-08-24

2 nulls for mana purposes
BoT for lane hopping/push/farm
REFRESHER!!!!

193 By aris000 2009-08-23

phase boots
dagger
shiva

192 By manijac 2009-08-21

AS isn't important, refresher gives you regen and Refresh...

191 By farhanm 2009-08-20

WHERE IS ORCHID??????????????????????????????????

190 By manijac 2009-08-17

For Enigma.. 2x Nulls, dagger, boots, perse, oblivion, BoT, Refresher...then maybe Shiva...

189 By grim234 2009-08-07

nah, u get conversion early age, with a RoB

this allows you to newt from level 1 and have 2 solos :)

and quite often when i do this i am a higher lvl than the solos, with a lot more money

once farmed i get bracers, travs, if done really well radience and support in ganks

188 By aznmage001 2009-08-05

But lvling blackhole reduces the cd, not by much but but it counts. Plus your items should fix the mana problem.

#186 Dagon is if you want to kill heroes/ks your carries which I don't recommend. In the end enigma cannot carry

187 By Zabedisi 2009-07-28

Phase boots
Orchid
Shiva
Dagger
linkens/bkb
*optional* refresher

win

186 By lovelle 2009-07-20

i dont know is a dagon good 4 him

185 By Kymadon 2009-07-09

the previous comment that i showed u was about the combo. the total mana to do this combo costs i think about 850 mana!! so make sure u have mana to do this
the max damage done by this combo on 2000 hp hero (calculations for pulse) would be:

140(4)+ 24%(2000)+200(shiva)+200(necro mana burn)+80(3)(malefice)=1680+ dmamage!!!

the dam+ means that the necros were normal attacking while i used BH. so basically u could even pawn a tank and other heroes with 1000+damfor3 kill

184 By Kymadon 2009-07-09

I also love using this guy because of his awsome combo, it goes like this:

first blink using dagger then summon necro then midnight pulse then BH( during the channeling i use my necros to attack and burn lots o mana).U can also use Shiva to slow the escaping heroes and finish them off with malefice and ur necros at lvl 3

this combo works great especially mid game with the items and mana to cast it. It's tricky to use cause you'll need good microing skills along with some quick fingers
