Vengeful Spirit/Old Abilities - Liquipedia Dota 2 Wiki (2024)

NOTES

• This ability was temporarily replaced by Disentangle from 6.00 to 6.04, and then replaced by Wave of Terror in the 6.58 gameplay patch.

• Places a debuff on enemy units within the radius. Leaving or entering the radius after cast has no effect.

• Only reduces base damage and that given by the primary attribute of the affected units. Raw bonus damage is not reduced.

NOTES

• This ability replaced Terror in the 6.00 gameplay patch, but was replaced back by Terror in the 6.04 gameplay patch.

• Works in the same way as [[File:|20px|link=Linken's Sphere|class=noprint]] Linken's Sphere does.

• This ability worked by itself passively, triggering when hit by a single targeted spell. However, the spell was manually castable with no effect, wasting the cooldown.

NOTES

• This ability got replaced by Terror in the 2.00 gameplay patch.

• Blink disjoints projectiles upon cast.

• Does not blink for the full distance when targeting closer than the max distance.

• When targeting beyond the max blink distance, it blinks for 560/640/720/800 range towards the targeted direction, instead of the full distance.

vengefulspirit_command_aura

• This ability got reworked into the following Vengeance Aura (7.20-7.22h) in the 7.20 gameplay patch.

• Only increases base damage and that given by the primary attribute of affected units. Raw bonus damage is not increased.

• The aura's buff lingers for 0.5 seconds.

• When an allied hero dies (including clones, excluding illusions), an illusion of it spawns, attacking whoever killed it.
  • These illusions are invulnerable, untargetable and uncontrollable.
  • The illusion lasts either 6 seconds, or until its target dies, whichever is shorter.
  • The illusions have 550 movement speed and unobstructed pathing. They also provide vision equal to the vision range of the hero.
  • The illusions attempt to attack their targets. If they cannot be attacked, they follow the targets close enough until they can be attacked again.
  • The illusions do not lose track when their targets turn invisible, hidden or move in the Fog of War. However, they need vision to attack.
  • The illusions are completely immune to every spell, even those which affect invulnerable units.
  • Just like other illusions, Vengeance Aura illusions bestow auras and can make use of other passive abilities which work for illusions.

• The illusions spawn no matter who kills them. If denied by an ally, they attempt to attack the ally, and can do so if the ally is denyable.
  • When denying oneself, the illusion spawns as well, but instantly dies, since its target is dead already.

• The aura affects invulnerable allies.

• Dying to non-player-controlled units gives no one the negative aura.

• Allies denying Vengeful Spirit do not get the negative aura.
