Golden Blade is not worth it because Golden Shard is free.
Bakasura gains bonus attack speed from his passive Insatiable Hunger, and high attack speed numbers increase the amount of damage dealt by Butcher Blades. This is what makes Silverbranch Bow a good fit for Bakasura.
In comparison to the Silverbranch Bow build, you will hit much harder with your auto attacks, especially in the 1v1. The downside is if the enemies build Spectral Armor your damage will be hurt, it depends on your use case and preference. If you like the crit style, go for it!
These items would replace Atalanta's Bow in your build, and would be built 6th item (or sell Atalanta's Bow late game.
Spectral Armor is a good pickup if 2+ enemies have crit, as it makes you win almost every 1v1 against crit gods.
Mantle of Discord is a good pickup if you need more survivability, and helps you win the jungle 1v1.
Tap each threat level to view Bakasura’s threats
Passive - Insatiable Hunger
Bakasura gains attack speed and movement speed upon killing enemies. This stacks up to 3 times. Insatiable Hunger helps Bakasura travel around the map quickly, and is why he may seem fast randomly. |
Ability 2 - Eat Minion
Bakasura grabs a minion, instantly consuming it. He gains health, restores mana, gains protections, and reduces the cooldown of his abilities. He gains a stack for his ultimate Regurgitate upon consumption. If used on a Large Jungle Monster, they must be below 33% health to be eaten. Large Jungle Camp monsters give 2 stacks for his ultimate Regurgitate. |
Ability 3 - Butcher Blades
Bakasura passively gains physical power. Upon activation of this ability, his auto attacks deal additional true damage on hit. Butcher Blades is your main damage ability, and will make you hit much harder than the opposition. Level this ability first in all scenarios. |
Ultimate - Regurgitate
Bakasura regurgitates all of the minions consumed by Eat Minion which attack enemies and additionally create a puddle which slows and cripples enemies inside. He becomes briefly CC immune, and his auto attacks become cone attacks which can cleave multiple gods at once. Regurgitate is a powerful ability for winning your fights. With your Eat Minion stacks, you can hide behind your minions but still hit enemies with your auto attacks due to the extra range. Butcher Blades should be used at all times with this ability, as it will massively increase your damage. |
Bakasura is a power farmer character, who disappears when his ultimate is down but punches hard when it is up. His gameplay is very linear, as you will be looking to Regurgitate and bail after it is down. This is a playstyle many have come to love, and I hope this guide helped you with your journey of Bakasura jungle.

When you attack with his ultimate, Golden Blade If you are hitting 2 or more enemies (late game), Golden Blade will cleave onto both targets, resulting in 150% auto attack damage on a singular target (instead of the normal 100%). This also stacks with Golden Gooseberries, meaning you can deal up to 200% damage during the early game when the enemy god is near another god, minion, or jungle camp. This super sneaky bonus damage is very important for Bakasura's early game fights, especially with 2 or more enemy gods.
While you still sell Golden Gooseberries for another item late game, I still recommend you keep Golden Blade for the 50% bonus reasons listed above
