-5cents of a noob

[sheny_1]

[SummerSnow]

acutally its just the impales that doesn't stack at all no dmg and no stun duration override, the stun just overrides for other cases.

[ZyHinoX]

-In older DotA versions, Faceless void's ultimate froze the whole map?

Wow cool.

[xsomebodyx]

no wonder last night potm leaped out of my blackhole. rofllllll

[GenGen.]

-When Mercurial dies with a Divine Rapier, it drops, BUT IF he dies while having the dagger buff, it wont....?

-While doomed the following abilities are disabled: passive bash, criticals, evasion and lifesteal? An exeption to this is backtrack but backtrack technically isnt an evasion.

-If your hero has less than 0.5 casting then you can use those skills while under the effect of Blackhole?
(Does sandking's burrowstrike count?)

[Sapphiro]

should add one more.. :P

- While under the effect of Berserker's call, its better to do nothing and let your hero auto attack axe than to keep spamming "s". (more % to execute counter helix)


[edit] -- i think i shouldnt have posted this :X

[StripperA]

-wild axes destroys the wall fissure creates <== this is so damn imba, i nv knew..

[RuLeZanG]

ion shield cast on sa still does dmg when sa is invis...this is a fun thing to use ^^

i dun get this one tho...Marksmanship technically deals infinite damage?

[d4rkw1sH]

just means that drow's ult has a chance to do 999999999999999999 dmg to creeps in order for instant kill of any creeps when marksmanship occurs

[SummerSnow]

@darkwish,thats not the case... if can do 999999999999999999 dmg u fatal bond the creep with hero. [All]Hero(Hero): HALLEHLUYA GG. all 5 die together becos of a creep. The effect is acutally that the creep just die, like how midas kill a creep.


@RuleZang, it acutally work with all invis hero, like nw de watcher u ion make it run with opponent damn gay lol. Ppl have BH, dark seer combo becos of the same reason.

[df01]

@summersnow: the fatal bond + marksmanship bug WAS in fact abused quite a few versions ago. it has already been corrected though im not sure in what way. but essentially darkwish is right.

[SummerSnow]

oo probadly i didnt notice in the other versions. but one thing is for sure . in a stable league map, its corrected right ?lols

[freshie]

marksmanship is a modified from the skill bash where there is a % chance of d doing a 0.01 stun duration and a bash damage of xxxx, do not know whether it is just 2000 or 9999999. But since it is base on RANGE bash, it does not work on alot of creeps like golems and dragons.

There is a different between melee bash and range bash as melee bash can bash everything (so far i know) but range bash does not work on creeps like dragon and golem and even BKBed heroes.

This is the same for passive skill Critical. Melee Critical can work on all creeps but Range Critical cant work on dragon and golems. Not sure about the Bkbed hero part.

lol not sure why you'd be intrested in older dota versions but

-In older DotA versions, Lycan in wolf form had farther range attack?
ONLY if he bought an MoM



-In older DotA versions, the Stealth Assassin, now called Rikimaru, had a death ward similar to witch doctor?
SA also had blink and critical strike. which meant he had 5 skills.



also DYK, SNIPER once had standard range of omfg1337- 2500


and btw swap works on anything, bkbed heros, a spinning jugger, a phase shifted puck ect ect.

Ursa and Lycan wolf form is range, base on the model of the standard game due to the engine itself. But the range is very short and there is no projectile, so it is not very obvious. Getting life steal orb item will give him a projectile when attack and also no cleaving attack when equip with battlefury.

Rikimaru does not have 5 skills, only 4. Permanent Invisibility, blink, critical strike and death ward which is the ultimate. Although permanent invisibility is not ultimate skill, you can only start learning when lvl 5. Blink is the same as AM and Qop, Critical strike is up to 15% of 3x damage. Death ward is ultimate but does not require channeling, and there are 4 Levels of Death ward, lvl 3 and 4 able to attack 2 targets, not bounce. Common item for Sa will be Mom, no mana cost and last for 12 sec for 12% life steal. Cost of buying it is 1900 but sell back to shop is 1500.

In Version 2 Dota, Dwarven Sniper's skill take aim gives him a max of 1500 attack range, at the expense of his move speed. Cost 100 mana to change form and take 4 sec to cast. And Keeper of the light is call Conjurer, or they have the same model, able to duplicate, summon golems, water elemental and phoenix.

Swap, Doom is modified base on Standard Game ultimate which will work on Avatar. So the nature of these modified skills will still work on Avatar and Bkbed Heroes.

ok let me add something that most people dont know. This is about Roshan.

Roshan's attack cannot attack building since people abuse the bug of pulling it to scourge tower long ago.
Roshan's attack cannot attack ward also.
Roshan is able to drop items from his own inventory but unable to pick up items.
The skill which has the effect of linken sphere on Roshan has the icon of mekansm, cooldown of 15 sec and able to self click.
The stun skill hurl boulder require 100 mana while the other Slam skill has no name and require 90 mana.
