So what's an "associate"

[Rocshi]

Well, I know what Donors, Patrons, and Benefactors are... but what is an "associate"? Is it someone like Kevinpowers who works for some fancy company? Or someone that works for Blizzard? Me dunno.

A faggit who payed DR some way other than money I'll bet. No clue. Where did you see it?

Offtopic: Hey it turns out Mock of Brilliance isn't that good on SandWraith, the damage doesn't carry across to the illusions. Geometer's bane and Nullfire blade are much better choices.

[Rocshi]

Nullfire is best item. But get mock too. You can't be ult dependent, you need to get dmg items, not just naked mock.

I wish the SandWraith had damaging spell that scales with stats. Desert's curse is cool but it gets kind of obsolete in late game. Mirage is always good tho Gotta gank dem intelligence heroes.

An associate is someone that helps you out I guess. Prof Oak is my associate.

It's generally someone who has a donor code but didn't donate; i.e. was given one by a patron/benefactor.
