Spirit Visage would be better. Of your 3 damage dealing spells, they all receive massively decreased benefits from WotA and spell vamp in general.


Actually, WotA > Spirit Visage, assuming you can stay alive long enough to get off all three skills.

Would Reap count as AOE and get reduced spell vamp or would you receive full spell vamp for each bounce?

Reduced, but it bounces five times, and Fiddle's AP ratios cause WotA to be more effective as far as spell vamp than Spirit Visage.

Keep in mind though, that Spirit Visage is also a defensive item.

But consider the cost ineffectiveness. Rather than get Visage/WotA, why not skip them altogether and just build more AP or defense?

Spell Vamp is too good. Nearly everybody in high elo gets WotA on AP carries. It's almost the equivalent of Bloodthirster for AP carries.

I have always liked Spell Vamp on AP and now that WOTA has an even higher Spell Vamp % there is more reason to go with it.

The point of spell vamp or lifesteal is to keep yourself alive. Fiddle has Drain. :/

Drain only lasts so long and if you get cc'd, you will still be getting spell vamp from your ULT without moving. And it also enhances drain to keep him alive more.

Building Fiddlesticks is highly dependent on the enemy team.

He's very versatile, and just needs wads of AP work. What kind of AP items depends on your experience as a player, there's no set path.

See this awesome pre-tweak fiddles video as a example

Jebus, fiddle does have drain, but you get EVEN MORE HP from it with spell vamp. It even heals you off of your other abilities. It's almost like not taking WotA on vlad because his Q heals him. XD
