What to do differently

Recalculate remaining build cost. The site’s professional timings still describe 7.41e.

Battle Fury

Ranged illusions deal less damage

Manta’s ranged illusions are weaker; Mask of Madness and Satanic also lose lifesteal.

Change source ↗
What to do differently

Remeasure farm speed and sustain before reusing an old GPM gain.

03Track: less gold
Hand of Midas

Track kills yield less

Big Game Hunter bonus delivery was fixed. Track pays 80/160/240 to its owner and 40/80/120 to allies. Invoker’s Shard Ghost Walk no longer damages non-heroes.

Change source ↗
What to do differently

Revise expected fight and farming income; the planner cannot compensate for that lost income by itself.

Patch freshness guard

7.41f context is checked. Numeric models separate official changes from community-cross-checked defaults.

Method and freshness

Version fact on one layer. Your inputs on another.

The primary source defines patch or event context. Every editable price, horizon, probability and risk remains a user input.

Decision context

This is not an isolated page. It is part of a game route.

The playbook shows what has been checked, which layer comes next and where the decision becomes action.
