    My playstyle:

    I normally play bully the offlaner out of lane with my q. And then proceed to take the t1 tower. After that I push that lane or go to another lane where my team is and farm nearby camps.

    My skill build:


    For talents I choose +15 damage, +40 lucent beam damage, +25 attack speed (normally), and +15 all stats

    My item build:

    I start with 4 branches, tangoes, and a circlet. I rush my wand, then aquila, treads, dominator, dragon lance, yasha, manta, pike, butterfly, situational

    Should I be looking to change my item build or playstyle?

            1. dont skill aura past lvl 1 until you maxed all ur other spells (unless you're doing a 5man deathball. In this case you might aswell go 4-0-4)

            2. I don't play Luna at all, but people generally seem to go pt aquila dragon lance manta. some players buy mask of madness in the mix or helm of dominator (rly good item)

            3. Why did you stop sending fucking nudes man? :cry:

                I max Dmg first, them beam, at 6 i go 2-0-3-1, cause you can get 1 kill if they come for you, or just zone the enemy gank
                The bounces are shit, compared with the other 2 skills, max those first, people might skill the bounce when they have a hard lane.

                Leave lane, go jungle and splitpush as your team takes fight, carry a tp to enter the fight in the end to clean up, with your ult.

                        I start with windlace, tango and circlet. I generally spread out skill points for lucent beam and aura, and pick glaives when in about to get lifesfteal. Raindrops, aquila then spam Q on the enemy offlaner. Farm a MoM, pike, BoT then find every oppurtunity to splitpush or farm the jungle.

                          The aura doesn't scale well man.. Go 441 always, rtz even skips higher level of aura back in previous patch

                              I said what i do, it works for me, on my 2k-3k games,but if the 7k player is tiggered by it, leave the forum, there is no rule where people can post shit because of their mmr.

                              I dont like to skill glaives cause they can mess up with your last hit early on, since you dont have the dmg to clear a wave pretty fast.

                                No hate but that's exactly what have happened in most dota discussion communities including this one and thats why they are all garbage now.

                                    Hook and roll barely got it right. Usually u wanna max your right click with aura. Beam doesn't scale that well anyway. Go 1-1-4 is better so u can trade with the offlaner and zone him out.

                                        If you take a second point of aura before any of your other skills you are not going to have a good time. One point in aura+maxed beam zones any offlaners a lot better and taking points in aura over glaives gimps your farming. One thing I have done before is to only take 2-3 points in beam to max glaives faster if I feel like I'm just going to be afk farming and dodging fights for the first 15 minutes.

                                          Maxing laser first is a no-brainer
                                          It is amazing and luna's best skill in the early game
                                          It scales with your ult too
                                          I don't see any point in maxing aura after laser unless you're running a deathball strat (as someone said before, 4-0-4)

                                          jo~

                                            U can go 241 or 341 if the offlaner had been successfully zoned and he gives up or u give up on ur lane

                                            441 eventually always

                                            Jacked

                                              Eventually u want 1-4-4 for maximum bouncing right clicks in the enemies face as they come to gank you. Ur ult is just to zone so no point maxing your q.

                                                      idk i almost always max beam right away even if the offlaner "leaves" because they might come back at the least appropriate moment with +1 or +2 and i'm put into position where i am forced to leave and afk farm while i could fight with some help or tp to enemy safleane and fuck them over
                                                      at least that's how it happens in my games
                                                      i usually just go 3-0-1 by 5 and don't skill anything until i see ppl in my lane or elsewhere at which point i just dump everything into q-r/glaives

                                                        lol this players.. most of the time, i only skill up Glaives once I start rotating from lane to jungle... which usually happens after level 6

                                                          Another common situation to max glaives first is when the lane goes to complete shit and you need to jungle at level 3-5. Usually I max glaives and just afk jungle for 10 minutes to attempt to catchup.

                                                          kr

                                                                dont get lucent beam damage...

                                                                          and every ult beam gets the extra damage

                                                                              Until, someone comes to my lane and fucks everihting up, them i go to jungle.
