No, plz stop trying to be the next eternalenvy
Build magic damage luna after finished manta(dispel and dodge), aghs, aether, kaya, octarine and take magic talent, like cast range, -4s lucent and +100dmg lucent, trust me, u will feel like a zeus

That doesn't make you a support though, support luna most likely wont get 6 slotted unless the enemy is really dumb.

Yes, if you know what you are doing. Have tried it with success before. Basically only worth it if the hero you babysit can snowball harder than you or plays better than you do and you know you can win the lane with only Q/E. You want E for the lane partner and Q is your only damage since you won't have any items till later on. You will basically ensure any kill when you get R then assuming your team didn't lose any lane stupidly hard by then.

In short, she's fine as a last resort support. Just don't do it on purpose in Ranked, seriously.
i think she good with dk...

in lane, dk can snowball/ survive very well (dont need luna to harrass), dk has a strong stun (which luna doesnt have), luna give dk damage (which dk lack of), and luna has nuke (combo with dk nuke)

in late game...dk can tank/ front line for luna so luna can use ult, luna +64 damage aura (with talent) also good for dk since dk has low damage,

i think there are better support for dk but luna can be a choice
all those reasons make vengeful spirit a far better companion as support, rage, weakness,a damage ,initiation, after death utility

luna is good as a last resort but not a legit support. they do a good lane as far as no one focus luna, cuz shestart being way to squishy, she needs babysitting, andgiving her that role is risky, lets put anaxe, huskar rubick, lina wind ranger, shadow demon, on that lane , and they will have a hard time...

I repeat is not a totallyheresy,but not thebesst choice, btw did you learn to deal with riki already?

I thought this was a fairly serious discussion.

I agree thats a good build (refresher too if youre at it) but.
Then thats not a support luna. She needs alot of farm for this.

People think support just means casting instead of right clicking. That is wrong. Support means not being reliant on farm and items so you can focus on buying wards and support items instead of state and dmg items.

Yeah my thoughts. People think if shes not building physical dmg she a support. You can be a core or semi carry with mgc dmg. I mean heck, even a carry if your and enemy draft allows it.

Yup. Good example would zues, and necrophos both of whom have damaging spells and do not rely on right chick but still needs tons of farm for items.

What can Luna do? Short range, low mana pool and useless without items. Not sure why would that become a thing, but thats just my opinion. And if shes gonna need alot of items to pull it off then shes gonna need alot of farm and thats not really support role.
i wont say she is utter crap as support because she has a very long ranged nuke (that also has 0.8s stun to help team to catch up the target), she has the strong damage aura for her team, and has a very strong ult like lich and wd (specially with scepter)...

the worst thing is she cannot harrass enemy in lane and she has no good disable, and also does not provide anything to team other than damage aura
