Dota 2
does it make sense to get a hurricane pike on a ranged support?
Like a ranged support that builds a force staff anyways?

Not usually, AFAIK. It's not that the item is bad- it's just that it's LESS GOOD than other items could be building. It's the kind of thing you'd probably only go for at 60+ minutes, if you already had all the other major support items.

What about on lich? Seems like the extra range is good for the auto attack slow.

AFAIK all of Lich's abilities that slow attack speed are activated abilities, meaning Aether Lens will increase the range, but Hurricane Pike will not.

Does it make sense to ever build a dragon lance or a force staff? Personally I run with minimal items.

Only get it on IO or Dazzle, rest not needed

I guess I haven't played Lich enough recently. Still, it's the kind of thing you should only build after or when you're near level 25, and even then I'm not sure it's better than what other items you could be building give you. I guess you could have taken the +120 damage talent, too, but then I don't really think you're building support any more.

I normally go for the regeneration. Just wondering if mat I got it all wrong and a hurricane pike slow build is better

Lich is not a great hero to begin with, but the Ice Armor +30 HP regen talent is infinitely better than the 30% as/ms. Don't try to build Lich as a right clicker.
I normally don't. Just wondering if the slow and extra attack range is better

forcestaff is for pushing both team or enemy to 900 units of their forwards. huricane is to keep your distance with the enemy. so i guess its normal if you dont want to feed

very good on support silencer who uses all attributes well + his bonus range talent already.

Makes sense

If something increases the range, how come it does not affect radius at all? I see it could be very imba, better not tell anyone about this error.
