Well HeAt, do we realy need a "guide" for that? If you feel like killing the Golem, just take the armor and 2 pots and go kill him. I just find it more economic (timewise) to kill casters than small camp than golem. Why? Coz at the moment i am done with golem (for sure i will move to lizard than, when lizard is dead, the wraiths are already up since the small camps and wraiths respawn faster than golem/lizard.

The master has spoken, and honestly, he is right. Warwick is NEVER made to be a tank, and when someone tells me he is, i laugh at them. Your job is to go into an existing team fight 4v4 or 3v3, Ult 1 to kill, hunger strike another and the team finishes them off, then chase the last one and kill him. To be honest dont base survivability on items base it on skill.. With katarina i can do deathless all game.. my best record like that was 25-0-4. It's just your ability to escape + the zonya's helps. With warwick, your survivability is awesome, you have a speed skill, a stun, and even a strong lifesteal which endgame steals more then heal would give you. JUST DONT BE STUPID. Nothing i have seen has come close to dewo's build, which is sad because i made one and i now regret it. DeWo could you possibly work on a golem or lizard first build though? that would be amazing!

uhh and about ghost...
There are diminishing returns in this game as you know.

For each point of movement you would have above 490, that amount is reduced by 50%. So if your final movement speed was 748, it would be reduced to 490 + (748-490)*0.5 = 604. For each point of movement you would have above 415, it is reduced by 20%. So if your speed after all mods was 445, you would end with 415 + 30 * 0.8 = 439.

With Blood scent active, you would exceed the soft cap, and some of the boost will get reduced. Taking Exhaust is better idea if you realy dont like Flash. It will give you 10 times more survivability than your beloved cloak, and it will have even bigger impact on the other champ than you with haste.

but that is just and idea :)

Well if we talk about survivability, the only item i take into consideration is Banshee. Gives all we need + 1 spell block.
If you always go for mercury threads, you wont need writs than since you get magic res from them, and bloodrazor is goodlike to writs damage.
Why i hate Sunfire cape? it screwed me over many many times. You are constantly "on fire" and you could accidently pull off creeps to your location coz of it and spoil the gank.
Your ulti is 1.7s stun, so you can get 80 (unresisted) damage while in this stun. Not that much if you consider taking it as a last item.

as you say:
"gainst higher rated players, they will RAPE you so fast you wont even get to finish your ULT, and all that dmg you bought will be wasted."

Ofc, that is not rocket science. You will not survive if whole team focuses on you no matter what (Kalie ulti maybe, or Zilean ulti).
You are not a tank, dont try to make one out of warwick.
He is not the main carry, and i do not even try doing him that way, we have Yi for that or Tristana. He is a gank char, you should kill and vanish, in teamfights your tank should get the spanking, and you are not a tank for sure.

About M-pen. From what i know, Hungering strike is % based. it does:
"Strikes an enemy for the greater value between 275 and 20%
so for a target with more than 1375HP you will strike for 20% of his HP Pool.
The damage is pure (or physical have to check this to be 100% sure), dont be missleaded by increasement via AP).

"DEWOS build who get rolled by mine cuz i can out live all their dmg, chase them down, then turn on any one of their teammates and eat them too..."
Probably you are right, but i barely ever try myself in 1v1 situation. Untill i am 100% sure i will kill, i take no risks in that.
About that outrunning i would not agree fully, since when we are both fighting you will for sure be under 50% health anyway, i fight back as you know :). So we both would have the Blood Scent buff, so you would chase me to the infinity and beyond. Or i would escape since i max out Scent before putting 2nd point in Hunters Call as you do on lvl 9. Dunno what goes later since the build is not completed.
About build...
3 points in Lethality just to get the 21 pointer in offense and not having the Utility Mastery even if you state:
"if you keep blue/red buffs up, you'll be fine."?
You have 9.8% crit chance... not that you count on critting dont you? :>

Good that you have your vision of Warwick :) i like to have a good conversation about my fav champ :)

DEWO buld ftw, ww is free this week and ive been seeing lots of noobs try this type of build and fail. armor penitration and CD. Maldreds should come first because it does damages extra on mana (anti mage) sort of.

btw WW is suppose to be a good 1v1 not god so trying to be anti squishy is kinda useless, your better off with DMG and life steal

This build is not a primary carry build like DEWO. I used his build in a few games and found it to bee too squishy. When you play against better people, when they move around in packs, they know to A)Exhaust ww right away B)FOCUS you down C)His build has NO surviablity.

There for the magic pen helps you get more dmg outta your swipe IE more healing when your exhausted

The sunfire cape helps survive, and helps you do another 40 dmg per second AOE...most jungle creeps are in groups of 2+...

Armor pen doesnt have the same effect as magic pen in this game. I used to play ashe like mad and ran an armor pen ww, and it helps, a bit yes, but a cleaver or last whisper will do. you dont need to rune/mastery for it.

Now, why not flash, i used to run flash all the time but after the 2 nerfs it took, its not as nice, yes its still viable and depending on team comp ill get it, but usually its nice to have that burst of speed to
A)GET AWAY
B)U can pop it from a set of creeps and run in from cover to engage, they wont know whats comming
C)IT stacks with your skill...imagine how fast you are then..how many times ppl will flash through a wall or pop ghost themselves to get away from a ww, they cant get away when you have ghost on.

YOU NEED MERCURY TREADS, the reduction in CC effects is so vital...i find myself getn them on almost every character i play now.

and yes you can finish the razor before the wits, but its all viable to change based on the tempo of the game. if you need some more survivablity early becasue they have annie/zilean/fiddle/or w/e heavy magic dmg, it would be nice for when you need to dive...plus its 40 more dmg via the magic drain, so its not bad.

if it leads you to living long enough for 2 more ganks, thats your madreds right there...

LIKE I SAID, HIS Build is awsome if your focus is to kill 1 maybe 2 guys, and chase someone down after a team fight. HOWEVER< against higher rated players, they will RAPE you so fast you wont even get to finish your ULT, and all that dmg you bought will be wasted.

you should see how many ww's ive played using DEWOS build who get rolled by mine cuz i can out live all their dmg, chase them down, then turn on any one of their teammates and eat them too...

Well before DEWO freaks at you because he has the current top WW build, for masteries you dont need cooldown/magic pen, you need armor pen, you are jungling.. You are going DPS so get greives, and for the love of GOD DONT GET A SUNFIRE CAPE... Ive seen people do it and fail.. the life you regen from an infinity edge or cleaver gives you more life then the SC would... Damn.,

Lastly, why the ghost.. its not necessary, you have a skill for that, use something helpful like flash or exhaust.. ghost is the WORST choice to go, or one of them... DEWO anything to add? oh.. finish the razor before the wits end... thats it...
