As for my skill build, http://prntscr.com/59djoa to make it quicker.
I personally really like Inner Vitality at level 4, as by then im usually running low on health consumables or i'm ganking and killing.

Stout shield on a ranged hero?
Are you sure?

Its for Vanguard (Crimson Guard), it can be skipped early game for a faster Buckler.

You really only need the crimson guard if they have high physchal dps. You also really need an urn, because you are on low hp constantly. Maelstrom and mjollinir is a waste as beserkers blood already gives insane attack speed, and vanguard could be a critslys. Satanic is quite useful.

Your skill build is nice but you do not need inner vitality pre 6 if you go for an urn.

Yeah, Urn can be gotten earlier if you plan on the ganks early on.

As for Maelstrom and Mjollnir, i really like it because the procs go off quite a bit (and stack with Burning Spears) and makes it easier to farm.

For Vanguard, (usually) there is always a physical-carry. I'd guess that if they dont have one, it can get skipped entirely for another item.

Huskar is not a carry. All he needs is an urn and some lifesteal and you are ready to start ganking. You can pick up the guard at the 30 minute mark after a few ganks when the enemy right click carry starts to come online

I tend play him life a pseudo-initiator, and ganking-semicarry, I agree that he cannot hard carry unless ultra fed (then again anyone can)

maelstrom damage proc deal 120 so I guess it could work after you have your urn hotd, but by then you probably need your guard

Edit: I've removed Stout Shield from starting items and replaced it with 2 Gauntlets. They give more health and a more damage early game for last hitting.

gj. Double gauntlets also nets you a fast urn

[Namul Niram]

Yep, and moved urn to be gotten after Bucker and Phase, before Morbid Mask. Still, i really do like the 1 point in Inner Vitality early on, then dont touch it til around levels 12,13,14.

Go ahead, as it nothing else needs mana. Treads are also something to be considered
