Skill Build Justification


Lucent Beam is maxed early for a few reasons. Eclipse's damage is based on Lucent Beam's level, so you want Lucent Beam to be maxed asap so Eclipse can hit its full potential asap. It's also a 6 seconds cooldown single target nuke which deals 300 damage when maxed, has quite a long casting range and is the only reason for Luna to put her mana to use other than Eclipse. As a bonus, it has a mini-stun that comes in handy against tp users and channelers. Level Eclipse asap because it's the only reason enemies are afraid of her. Eclipse can sometimes turn a 1v2 battle to a double kill for Luna, if timed right. You should also know that when Luna is only level 6, Eclipse can already dish up to 900 magic damage on a single target. That's a whopping 675 damage after heroes' natural magic resistance and it's almost always a guaranteed kill whenever a lone hero is caught off-guard with Luna. If he isn't dead, cast that single Lucent Beam already.

Now that Lunar Blessing's reworked, it's more worthy of early levels for it's constant damage bonus. Likewise, constant damage bonus scales poorer into late game, and hence should be taken advantage of early game. Maxing Lunar Blessing early right after Lucent Beam also allows Luna to benefit from the bonus night sight as early as during the first night. Enemies fall to Eclipse early game and having extra sight at night could really help Luna to position better for it. Also, Luna has no escape mechanisms and she can't afford deaths early game, so the extra sight will come in handy to spot incoming enemies at night and escape before they can see you.

Moon Glaive is maxed from level 10 onwards, it's the trademark ability that makes Luna farms a lot better and with the +24 damage from Lunar Blessing it's much better. Moon Glaive significantly increases her dps against multiple units, hence you should be cautious not to overuse it in lanes, unless you want to push the lane far ahead. If you use it to fight lane creeps, attempt only last hits. 'Neutral stacking' or 'jungle stacking' is a term referring to stacking multiple neutral creep spawns in their camps. This will be explained later.Remember to level up Eclipse whenever possible. Proceed with stats for the remaining levels.
