Carpet beetle larva . See sidebar top left , which shows an adult beetle , not a larva . The hairs irritate some people . They eat dried protein including natural fibers , e . g . , your wool sweaters and rugs . The cure is to vacuum like a manic Mary Poppins . <| sep |> It is more a case of by the time Alch is giving out aghs he is normally six slotted . He should already have something like AC , armour items etc , which coupled with his high HP regen means HP goes a long way . The raw stats of aghs are not actually bad , 375 health and 1 . 5 armour is decent on him . Then with his BAT taken into account he gets 70 % more from the 10 stragi so the equivalent of 17 damage and attack speed . Considering alch generally wants to be beefy and push objectives before the enemy catches up in items , giving him the extra survivability damage helps him win the game rather than giving gyro who already has 3 skills he can use to farm a slightly faster farming tool . If Gyro is not having a great game he is already falling off by 30 , giving him a farming tool and inconsistentlow DPS buff due to hitting creeps and illusions etc and completely depending on the items he has to actually do meaningful damage in fights is probably not worth it if you can just man up and end the game as alch . Also note I said think hard . If the Gyro is doing well andor you are giving out aghs early then definitely , likewise if you are not that far ahed and have no hope of ending the game soonish . If it is alch games like we have seen at summitelim where the alch is the only relevant core on the team and your only chance of winning is keeping him alive , that extra survivability can go a long long way . The aghs stats are better than a dragon lance on Alch . I think the issue is we are looking at it in a vacuum of Gyro or Alch uses it himself , when in reality there are 3 other heroes that possibly want one and are probably better options than either .
