Effective items guides

Early game

Boots of Speed

Boots of Speed: Omniknight's Boots of Speed are vital since he can utilize Degen Aura to slow down foes, whether pursuing during a gank or body-blocking chasing attackers attempting to kill your carry. Given how position-dependent all of Omniknight's spells are, boosting his movement speed should be a top goal.

Magic Stick

Magic Stick: Due to Omniknight's limited mana pool, Magic Stick is quite valuable. Being able to provide oneself 150 mana might be the difference between being able to perform your spells and not being able to cast them.

Urn of Shadows

Urn of Shadows: The Urn of Shadows is a potent support item that boosts Omniknight's ability to heal allies and deal magic damage. The item gives Omniknight extra strength, improving his HP and basic damage, as well as some mana regen to assist him better manage his mana pool. 

On top of Purification, the active allows Omniknight to use additional heal or inflict extra magic damage in combat.

Mid game

Soul Ring

Soul Ring: The Soul Ring should be Omniknight's first significant purchase, as its active ability allows him to throw Purification more frequently than once every several minutes. Omniknight can become significantly more aggressive in teamfights and ganks by reducing his mana requirements.

Magic Wand

Magic Wand: For a small amount of money, Omniknight can get a Magic Wand that gives him additional characteristics and allows him to quickly recover 255 life and mana, enough to cast any of his skills.

Arcane Boots

Arcane Boots: Arcane Boots are required to expand Omniknight's tiny mana pool, letting him use his mana-intensive skills more frequently. Furthermore, he may use his active ability to restore his and his team's mana pools, which is an important role for a support hero.

Drum of Endurance

Drum of Endurance: The Drum of Endurance, in addition to providing all-around benefits, increases Omniknight and his allies' mobility and attack speed. The active charges may be used with Degen Aura to create even more of a mobility and attack speed gap between the two sides.

Mekansm

Mekansm: Omniknight gains another source of healing from Mekansm, this time one that impacts his friends. It's all-around qualities and additional armor also enhance Omniknight's tankiness, but make sure your mana pool is high enough to sustain Mekansm's usage, since it is incredibly mana-intensive.

Late game

Guardian Greaves

Guardian Greaves: Guardian Greaves are a good late-game purchase for Omniknight, since he frequently develops a Mekansm and Arcane Boots. Combining the two things into one inventory slot frees up room in the late game for more items, reduces Mekansm's mana cost, and boosts its aura even more. 

Omniknight may also use self-dispel to remove debuffs on himself that are hindering him from contributing successfully in teamfights.

Aghanim's Scepter

Aghanim's Scepter: Aghanim's Scepter transforms Guardian Angel into a global ability, increasing its effectiveness by granting physical immunity to all allied structures and removing the requirement for Omniknight to be with his comrades to benefit from it. It also bestows upon him extra abilities, such as life and mana.

Lotus Orb

Lotus Orb: Omniknight may use the Lotus Orb to severely thwart foes' attempts to concentrate down on him or a partner. Omniknight gains higher armor and mana regen as a result of the item's perks, improving his durability and allowing him to perform spells more frequently.

 When he uses Echo Shell on himself or a teammate in a fight, he may leverage his opponents' disables and magical nukes against them, slowing down the combat and allowing him to deploy his defensive spells.

Situation items

Orb of Venom

Orb of Venom: Orb of Venom is a good early-game purchase since its slow stacks with Degen Aura's.

Scythe of Vyse

Scythe of Vyse: Omniknight gains mana regeneration and a hard disable from Scythe of Vyse, dramatically improving his teamfight involvement and ability to gank targets.

Shiva's Guard

Shiva's Guard: Omniknight gains a lot of armor and intelligence from Shiva's Guard, which helps him increase the size of his mana pool. In teamfights, Degen Aura's active and passive abilities combine, allowing him to severely hamper adversaries' attempts to strike and move about.

Vladmir's Offering

Vladmir's Offering: Vladmir's Offering is an excellent all-around utility aura item. Your squad benefits from the armor and mana regen auras, as well as the lifesteal and attack damage bonuses.

Refresher Orb

Refresher Orb: Omniknight can cast Guardian Angel twice with Refresher Orb, as well as employ Purification and Heavenly Grace in fast succession. However, recharging your cooldowns costs a lot of mana, so if you want to create this, you need first raise the amount of your mana pool.

Game plan

Early game

You will definitely have to go to the same lane with Carry. The first step is to keep an eye on the surrounding areas to carry the farm. Occasionally, you can use the Purification skill to poke nearby enemies. The most effective way to do this is to buff any creeps that are near the enemy and call on your teammates to jump into the general buff. A model Support should not be too aggressive. Omniknight's mana is very low, so don't waste it.

When you see your teammates affected by the ability to control, use Repel to save them. At the same time, time to clear runes in the most accurate way. Omniknight can't roam, so when the team needs help, use the Town portal scroll skill.

Late game

At this stage, try to build up the remaining items. Because at the end of the game, Omniknight Dota 2's strength will be weaker without the main items. You must be present at all times and accompany your teammates. Van keeps warding status to maintain distance from the opposing team. You will be your first target in the teamfight so always be careful. The way to use the skill is still similar to the previous stage. When participating in combat, please activate combat support equipment in time to be effective.
