Monkey King Bar and Daedalus

Monkey King Bar
Cost: 5400
+88 Damage, +15 Attack speed
35% chance to mini-bash for 100 damage.
True strike

Roughly equivalent to +123 damage, +15% dps, true strike and minibash.


Daedalus
Cost: 5550
+81 Damage
25% 2.4x Damage critical strike chance.

Roughly equivalent to +81 damage and +35% dps.


N.B.
- from a dps perspective, for heroes that already have a lot of damage (~160+), Daedalus is the better item choice.
- illusions benefit from critical strike but not from mini-bash chance.

However!
Against an opponent with evasion, say from butterfly (35% evasion),
the benefits of true strike increase the effectiveness of monkey king bar from +15% dps to (1.15 * [100/65]) = 77% overall dps increase.

+123 damage, + 77% dps.

Feel free to check my math, it's been awhile, etc., but the principles are correct.
