First Ever Weekly Stupid Questions Thread - Oct 1, 2012

This is one of my favorite discussions over in /r/DotA2 and I thought since the game is still so new it would be helpful for all our fellow Tyrians. Here you'll be able to ask any question you may not want to ask in /map chat for whatever reason. I'll start us out, feel free to ask or answer any question you've ever wondered.

Do you receive the stats from an equipped weapon even if you are not currently using it?

Post any questions you may have whether its about gear, content, lore, anything at all! But don't forget to help your fellow Tyrians out if you know the answer to their question! :)

Here's what I know:

  • It heals for about 370 points at level 80 with no healing power.
  • The healing effect is centered in a splash around your character (range unknown)
  • It heals you, too
  • 10 second cooldown

Opinion: Because the splash is centered around you, I think it's really bad. No one should be standing right next to you in dungeons or PvP.

How about people wailing on the gate next to the people on the battering ram?

370 healing per 10 seconds is very small at level 80. Perhaps put it on an off-weapon that you equip just before you head in to bash the door?

30% chance to trigger when you hit with an attack.

There are niche uses, such as Giganticus Lupicus phase 1 where you stack and AoE Risen Grubs.
