In my opinion there are two skills that Erebus really need whatever the build he wanna have : Bite lvl 4 and bat swarm lvl 2 (lvl 3 if you take the assassin build) Minions be really powerful if you take all the item +minion damage and destroy tower quickly if you have some +minion armor/health. But it means no armor for Erebus so if you take a general build, you'll often be behind your troops, attacking only when others DG rushes you or when they flee. But I assure you a gener

I wouldn't recommend Banded Armor (550 gold) Scaled Helm (550 gold) As first items... You don't care about armor with Erebus bite, and purchasing monk idol is way better in my opinion as you'll be able to face 2 DG directly in the early game with those and bite. So in priority, buy monks, and then take an helm giving mana (i take the one costing 1500G) it'll allow you to spam bite and mass charm to kill non stop. Another thing wrong in what you describe :<
Actually Regulus is the weakest DG against Erebus I think cause he dies so quickly :'( Don't know if Regulus have a stun but if it has use it and run away, it's pointless to fight Erebus with his bite + 2 healer + his stun and mist lol. The best way to deal with Erebus in my opinion is to make him lose all his mana, i guess there is an item to drain mana so it would be the best item against Erebus.
No you're quite right Sheezwack, at high level, a general type become quite useless, mainly because minion don't do any damage... And there are only 2 or 3 items to up their damage but not enough to deal at hight level against heavily stuffed DG. So in my opinion, the general type is useful in the early game but after, you become quite useless for your team :'(
You're right about that TheUnholyones, but you're wrong about the use of bat swarm. The good way to use it is to rush in the battle with it or kill escaping DG, not to flee. Mist is good so you can wait for cooldowns to come back, that's all.
In my opinion, Erebuus should begin with the healer idol at the begin of the game, not others things. After that, you just need to buy the boots of speed and some crown for mana (I take the one at 1500) in priority. With this, you are unkillable and you can kill all others demigod easily with bite and mass charm. Tested it only tonight though, but it worked, I always finished first player and winning game (I'm really wondering if I don't play with only bots in pantheon sometimes but I
