Tome of Endurance.

I think this is an underated (general)favor item. I could be wrong, but I dont se it taken/talked aobut much.

Many have alled for a nerf of BOTF, and I think that is a horrible Idea (in part beacuse of ToE).

While BotF give 800hp and +5, ToE gives 400hp and +5. BUT it also gives 130 minion hp. I would this wold be a viable option for LE and Oak minion build, as it gives you an HP boost, albeit weaker the BotF, but it also gives some extra life to minions, helping them survive burst AOE, or ooze.

There is one chief reason the Tome isn't used: Horn of Battle is better. 130 HP to a minion is nothing compared to 2000 health every 30 seconds. You could argue that the Tome gives more raw HP, but a minion build isn't going to suddenly allow for the DG to be in mid combat with just 400 more health.

Ultimately, Tome isn't the raw HP strength of Blood of the Fallen, and not the great Minion buffer of Horn of Battle. It does Blood half as well as Blood does, and Horn one twentieth as well, and that is why it falls short.

Horn of battle and ring of devine might are simply better for minions.

I will agree with Ring of Divine Might but not necessarily with Horn of Battle. Horn of Battle will not save your minions against a 1.7k hammer slam or 1450 damage worth of mines. Tome of Endurance makes it easier for you to buff your minions to the point where they can.

Having said that, for a full minion build, Ring of Divine Might is overkill so if you need the extra hp at the start of the game, Tome of Endurance might not be a bad choice.
