I honestly find Krobelus a really nice hero to start with. She doesn't require tons of DotA experience and though you may not play extremely well with her at the beginning, you will learn many basic techniques. First advantage is probably the fact that she is ranged, and many newbies love ranged heroes because than can easier avoid taking damage from creeps, and do not have to approach a ranged hero in order to be able to take damage. I'm sure many unexperienced players are afraid to take even a bit of damage. Krobelus also has a nuke skill (Carrion Swarm) which doesn't require a lot of control and she is one of the best pushers in the game, with her Exorcism. Overall, if you are a person who wants to learn how to play DotA you might consider this strategy.

Krobelus

Krobelus - The Death Prophet


Range: 600 | Move Speed: 280
Primary: INT
Str: 19 + 1.8 | Agi: 14 + 1.4 | Int: 20 + 3
Damage: 39 – 51 | HP: 511 | Mana: 260
HP Regen: 0.82 | Mana Regen: 0.81
Attack Speed: 0.67 | Armor: 1
Silence Silence (E)
Stops all enemies in a target area from casting spells.
Level 1 - Silences units in a target area, lasts 3 seconds.
Level 2 - Silences units in a target area, lasts 4 seconds.
Level 3 - Silences units in a target area, lasts 5 seconds.
Level 4 - Silences units in a target area, lasts 6 seconds.
• Targets can still use items when silenced
• Casting range: 900
Area of Effect: 200/275/350/350
Mana Cost: 80
Cooldown: 14
Comment: I'm not a big fan of Silence, and newbies do not really know when to use it. That's why I leave it for the later stages of the game (end of Midgame, beginning of Late).

Carrion Swarm Carrion Swarm (R)
Sends a horde of bats to damage enemies.
Level 1 - 100 damage per unit.
Level 2 - 175 damage per unit.
Level 3 - 250 damage per unit.
Level 4 - 300 damage per unit.
• Damage type: magical
• Casting range: 600
• Area of Effect: 110 (Starting AoE)/700 (Distance)/300 (Final AoE)
Mana Cost: 105/120/140/165
Cooldown: 9
Comment: This is your main ability. It is not exactly a laguna blade but it does the trick. Easy to use and efficient.
Witchcraft Witchcraft (C)
Increases the potency of each of Krobelus's spells.
Level 1 - Improves spells.
Level 2 - Improves spells.
Level 3 - Improves spells.
Level 4 - Improves spells.
• Decreases Carrion Swarm mana cost by 5/10/15/20 and cooldown by 1/2/3/4 second.
• Decreases Silence mana cost by 0/10/20/30 cooldown by 0/1/2/3.
• Increases the number of level 1 Exorcism spirits by 1/2/3/4.
• Increases the number of level 2 Exorcism spirits by 1/3/4/6.
• Increases the number of level 3 Exorcism spirits by 0/2/4/7.
Mana Cost: N/A
Cooldown: N/A
Comment: This ability is incredible. It greatly improves Carrion Swarm (lower cooldown and mana cost means more CS) and the Exorcism bonus is also great. Get it soon so that you can benefit from the lower mana cost for Carrion Swarm.
Exorcism Exorcism (X)
Unleashes evil spirits to attack your enemies.
Level 1 - Summons 5 evil spirits, lasts 30 seconds.
Level 2 - Summons 10 evil spirits, lasts 30 seconds.
Level 3 - Summons 16 evil spirits, lasts 30 seconds.
• Spirits do 43-48 hero type damage.
• Area of Effect specifies the area around Krobelus where spirits will choose new targets.
• If a spirit gets 2000 range or more from Krobelus, it will be destroyed.
• After the spell ends, the spirits will heal Krobelus for 25% of the damage dealt by them, up to a maximum of 1000.
• Area of Effect: 700
Mana Cost: 200/300/400
Cooldown: 100
Comment: As I mentioned before, Exorcism is one of the best pushing ultimates. The spirits even affect towers and at the end of the spell give you back some life. It's too good to be true, eh? Not to mention that the eye-candy is really cool.

lothar not too good for her imo..

256 By Cantubia 2010-01-18

Early, mid or late game, excorcism is still a pain in the ass, not weak.

255 By gto3003 2009-12-21

scepter doesnt improves krobelus's ulti so its also useless except for stats boosting.

254 By yarocaracas 2009-12-21

Nice but what is the use of Mjolnir when you can buy aghanim's scepter?

253 By NiGEL~ 2009-11-17

skadi is not considered an orb if you are ranged

252 By joeytsh 2009-11-16

i like this strategy !

251 By chanold96 2009-10-29

does skadi stack with mojllnir???

250 By Pazzi 2009-10-25

First Item Bloodstune ftw. Afterwards Shivas (Armor and mana ftw), then hex. BoT fit her best i think...she´s pusher after all. Refresher...nah, dont thinks so. ulti has low cd, pwns withour refresher...and u don´t really need it twice in a row (mby if you´re taking opponent base, but buy such an expensive item for only one situation?). dagon may work, haven´t tried yet. but nice good, gj

249 By aris000 2009-09-19

246 By nagax0 2009-08-02

use lothar
it's nice use with your ultimate

245 By tjjl 2009-07-23

u missed the core item, bloodstone.
dagon on a carry hero with a 300 damage nuke that can be spammed?
why mjolnir, krobelus does not need attack speed.
with your item build, krobelus only has 2k health, and no regen, a team of weak nukers would destroy you.
Why get farming items and then push.
with your build, you can't chase, so you can't kill.

244 By Brentosaurus Rex 2009-07-11

243 You call it a noob build, but try calculating the gold your build costs...

243 By o2123 2009-07-02

such a noob build

try this

BOT
HOT
HOT
Guinzoo
assault
shiva

thats my build

krob is a damaging tanker
the purpose of my build is to make the exo last up to the last second
and do the killing by his teammates

242 By dranzersfvv 2009-06-29

i rather someone else get mjonir. since ur getting it purely for the static, get your teamates to static for u. thats better cause the 35agi is wasted. krob isnt a dps. but good, i like that he's friendly with noobs and can start with it

241 By eveline 2009-06-26

very interesting and useful. will try mjollnir, that' s something new for me, haven' t tried it yet!

240 By BillySpelars 2009-06-02

pro build I have seen is
Nulls (core0
Phase Boots (core)
Bloodstone (core)
Heart (core)
AC(luxury situational)
Sheepstick (luxury)

239 By Bladeofserenity 2009-06-02

It's only really suitable for the beginners, first, Krob relys on CS spam + ulti to damage, getting dps items on krob is a waste of gold.

Lothars is nice, since you can WW in, activate ulti and do considerable damage while chasing , CS to finish them off. Gotten a couple kills using that.

Skadi is nice, Sheepstick is a must. You can get a aghre, but it's not really essential.

238 By ayidkia 2009-05-28

i would you get lothars.so when you on your exorcism.you on lothars.TRIPLE KILL!!!
