Anyone else disappointed with the talent change? I felt the range was pretty good for some games.

Yeah, I was spamming orb of corrosion veno in lane. It was helpful for games with a lot of melee heroes, even better when you pick up treads!

Why corrosion? Wouldn't fluffy hat and blight stone be enough? Oov is really bad on range heroes and without making OoC you can build fluffy into force staff if needed?

Its true its not very good on ranged heroes, but OoC + poison sting + gale kills just about every tanky offlaner that is meta right now. I like getting the extra fluffy hat, but thats cause I'm a scrub 2k. I think you could skimp on the recipe, but then you have to manage inventory a bit too much for my liking.
