Dota 2 has long been a cult game and has attracted a huge number of players. Now it has become an e-sports discipline in which many professional teams are fighting for fairly high awards and prizes.
Game artifacts
Even in the first "DotA", which was only an additional card to the well-known game, players had the opportunity to collect various kinds of artifacts, which migrated to Dota 2. Items here also give serious bonuses, and without them it will simply be impossible to win. Some increase damage, others give new active abilities.
However, there are the most valuable items in Dota 2. Rapier is the most powerful artifact for additional physical damage that its carrier is endowed with. Thanks to her, you can easily destroy your opponents with a few blows. True, this artifact has its drawbacks.
First of all, we note that balance and mechanics are the main pillars of life in the game "Dota 2". The rapier, like any item, is no exception. She pays for her great power with a rather high purchase price and feature, because of which, when her owner dies, she falls to the ground, so that the enemy can pick her up. This artifact only gives damage, but does not endow the owner with invulnerability or a lot of health, and therefore, if you play for enough “thin” heroes without the possibility of avoiding damage (teleportation, invisibility, etc.), then it is better not to take this artifact.
Well, he looks at the heroes of ranged combat, since they do not have to be in the thick of the battle. Even better, if this hero is able to deal critical damage, attack quickly or have a large attack range (Sniper, Drow Ranger, Luna, Medusa).
It is worthwhile to understand that on heroes who use their intellect and active abilities that inflict great magical damage, this artifact will look very extraordinary. Such characters do not need items that add physical damage. It’s better to collect such things that increase the strength from your magical attacks, as well as reduce the enemy’s magical defense. Such items are also in the game "Dota 2". First, the rapier is not necessary for such heroes at all, and, secondly, given their natural physical weakness, which, as a rule, is expressed in a small amount of health, poor physical protection, low speed of movement, it will be a serious problem, because you can’t transfer it, and if the enemy takes possession of it, then it will definitely be difficult for you.
How to assemble?
Like any other item, this artifact also consists of some components, however, their relationship has changed over time. Now, if you don’t know how to collect rapier in DotA 2, just find its recipe in the Shop tab of the game. To build it, you need only 2 artifacts: Demon Edge and Sacred Relic. By purchasing these two items for a total of 6,200 gold, you will receive +330 physical damage and a new item, in fact, Divine Rapier.
Best heroes
There are a number of heroes to whom the purchase of this artifact is recommended by Dota 2 itself. A rapier will look their best to them, and their abilities will make it as effective as possible. This is Weaver, Wraith King, Medusa, Kunkka - it is on these characters that such a powerful artifact will find its best use.
