Dota Version 6.58

The latest Dota map just landed and we've got the changelog with all the details right here. It's been a while since the last update and no wonder, they dropped a huge amount of changes on us. The most notable 2 underlined here---


First major change is a complete remake of Storm Spirit.



Storm Spirit:
==============




Attack Range: 500
Strength: 17 + 1.5
Agility: 22 + 1.8
Intelligence: 23 + 2.6

Trigger AOE: 210

Cooldown: 4
Manacost: 70/80/90/100

Takes 1 second to create after cast. This is not channeling, just time delayed.


Electric Vortex
-----------------



Storm focuses his energy to rip open a vortex drawing an enemy to it. This process slows the Storm Spirit down for a brief period.

Pulls 100/150/200/250 units over 1/1.5/2/2.5 seconds.
Your movement is reduced by 50% for 3 seconds.

Cast Range: 300

Lasts 0.6 seconds (Same stats as old overload)
Bonus damage: 30/45/60/75AOE: 275

Ball Lightning
---------------



Storm Spirit becomes enveloped with energy, losing his physical form, and travels until he depletes his mana or chooses to stop. While in this form, he deals damage to nearby units based on how far his electrical form has traversed. Damage, speed and area of effect improves per level.

Stops traveling whenever you run out of mana. Deals damage in a small area around you based on distance traveled.

Damage: 8/12/16 per 100 units traveled
Manacost: (15 + 7% of total manabase) + mana based on distance traveled (10+1% per 100 units)
Cast Range: Global
Cooldown: 0

Travel speed and damage AoE improves per level.You can cast spells like Static Remnant during your roll if you are quick enough.Specific interactions with spells/projectiles follow the same rules as Waveform does.



Undying also got a pretty sweet overhaul. Check out the specs.

Manacost: 50/75/100/125

Flesh Golem
------------



Dirge's hatred for all living beings allows him to transform into a monster. While he's transformed he carries a plague that affects nearby enemy units. Strength of the plague depends on how close the enemy is. Amplifies damage enemy units receive and reduces their movement speed (7%). When a plagued unit dies, its essence is transferred back to the Undying.

Cooldown: 90
Duration: 30
Manacost: 100

Plague Aura Damage Amplification: (old plague was 20/25/30%)
at max distance (700): 5/10/15%
at closest distance (150): 20/25/30%
In between is just an even spread between the numbers

Units that die under plague release their energy to you. Creeps heal you for 3% and Heroes for 12% of your Max HP.
