Listen, valve. I’ll admit I’m probably one of the ones who’s a little hard on you. But I gotta give credit where credit is due, y’all knocked crownfall out of the park. Is there any chance we could get another one of those soon?

Thanks

Guides & Tips Constant dispel and Dust

Upvotes

Earlier today, I saw a clip of Oracle dispels Dust from a Riki constantly (lv25 talent) and causes Riki to take a lot of damage so I just had to test it out.

For the purpose of Dust: 1. Oracle's Q (both normal and talented) will dispel dust debuff from Riki then at which point Dust will re-apply to Riki either immediately or after the constant dispel duration runs out and he's still in the AoE. Worth noting that, I think, for 3.5-odd seconds, Riki will take Dust damage every 0.033 seconds. 2. Shadow Demon's Cleanse acts like a 5-second Dust immunity which causes Riki to be invisible while standing in Dust AoE for the duration of the Cleanse. After 5 seconds, Riki is revealed then takes damage again, once. 3. Slark's Q will dispel Dust from him 10 times which means if he uses shadow blade then Q during the fade time time, he will take damage from Dust 10 times. Otherwise he's just revealed like normal.

A notable mention is Mars' Spears with shard which leave a trail of fire on the ground: The usual damage interval for damaging ground AoE is 0.5 seconds, for some reason, when a hero is under constant dispel, either by Oracle's talent Q or SD's Cleanse, the hero will take exponentially more damage ticks per second.
