Abyssal scepter aura has 1000 radius range... none of heimer's abilities are longer range than that, except the edge of some turret's range that happens to already be far away from him. There is absolutely wrong with abyssal on heimer... Where did you read that abyssal's range was 'very limited'?

And as far as stats go.. RoA gives him survivability he DOES need, given his lack of mobility and long ability cooldowns, and IS in fact very gold efficient for the stats it gives. It breaks even a minute after you buy it and after 10 minutes is easily the most gold efficient item for its stats... And anyone that thinks heimer does not need serious help with the depth of his mana pool, both early and throughout the game, has never played him. During any serious fight or seige he runs through his mana like water, and the last time you want to have to base for mana or wait for regen is when the enemy is seiging your tower. RoA rakes care of both these problems neatly in one item, while letting him still ramp up his early damage somewhat more than just ranking up rockets already does.
