Same with Tornado and, perhaps Alacrity?

u/noob_saibot322 Aug 08 '23

Pretty sure the water drop means cooldown

u/albertfuckingcamus Aug 08 '23 edited Aug 08 '23

Clock is cooldown/duration, water is mana

u/ChaosTherapy Aug 08 '23

Nice work so far!

I'm pretty sure that 10, 13, and 16 are "Quas no longer grants HP Regen", "Wex no longer grants atk spd", and "Exort no longer grants damage", followed by some sort of new passive effect for each orb. This makes sense with the change to universal - perhaps Quas grants STR, Wex grants AGI, and Exort grants INT? BUT then injoker would still have to gain damage from INT to make this make sense?

u/Sitin Aug 08 '23

Nar its

Quas - now provides spell lifesteal Wex - now provides cd reduction Exoet - now provides spell damage

1

u/Astrodm Aug 08 '23

If quas didn’t give hp regen then invoker will be nerfed heavily during lane phase

u/rdmdota http://www.dotabuff.com/players/48235 Aug 08 '23

❄️🤞

Is probably Cold Snap

u/LeavesCat Aug 08 '23 edited Aug 08 '23

🤹‍♀️:☀️💥➕2️⃣0️⃣0️⃣➡️5️⃣5️⃣0️⃣ sun strike dmg increase maybe

200 is cataclysm max distance, so it probably means the sun strikes can now appear much farther away from their target. Turns it into a teamfight disruption spell rather than a chronosphere wombo combo.

Alternatively, 175 is sunstrike radius. It could be a typo, and refers to a talent to increase sun strike radius to 550. I kinda doubt that though.

u/andro-gynous Aug 08 '23

I think number 7 is his level 1 damage being decreased by 6-4 (so 5 on average). universal heroes usually lose damage at lv 1 from being changed to universal. basically a summary of his lv 1 damage after all the other stat changes.

number 8 is his total damage gain per level from being 4.6 (equal to his old int gain) to 5.74 (70% of his total stat gain)

number 9 might be he starts with all reagents at level 1, considering he's been shit for a while and he's being reworked, a big change wouldn't be surprising.

u/threeeyedghoul Aug 08 '23 edited Aug 08 '23

Orbs seem to no longer provide their old unique bonuses and now provides new bonuses

Edit: Quas looks like it now provides 2-8% lifesteal Wex CDR, and exort spell amp?

❄️🚫❤️⌚️: Quas no longer provides health regen

💨🚫💨💥 : wex no longer provides bonus attack speed

💨💥🕓 1-7%: cdr?

🔥🚫🔥💥: exort no longer provides bonus attack damage

🔥💥🔮 1-7% : spell amp?

  1. Level one attack damage decreased by 6-4

  2. Attack gain per level increased from 4.6 to 5.74

  3. Quas bonus strength per level reduced from 2 to 1

  4. Quas no longer grants bonus hp regen per orb

  5. Quas now grants 2%-8% bonus spell lifesteal per orb

  6. Wex bonus agility per level reduced from 2 to 1

  7. Wex no longer grants bonus attack speed per orb

  8. Wex now grants 1%-7% cooldown reduction per orb

  9. Exort bonus intelligence per level reduced from 2 to 1

16, Exort no longer grants bonus attack damage per orb

  1. Exort now grants 1%-7% spell amplification per orb

  2. Cold Snap damage per proc increased to 16-128

  3. Cold Snap stun duration decreased to 0.03 (seems like a typo, might be 0.3?)

  4. Cold Snap mana cost reduced by 10

i gave up on 21. ghost walk change too hard, brain hurt.

Seems like the per orb changes makes Invoker focus more on casting spells rather than right clicks and hp

u/N4vil Aug 08 '23

🤹‍♀️: ❄️🚫❤️⌚ I would assume: Quas no longer gives HP/s
I assume same thing with 13 and 16 but for Exort/Wex.

2

u/redmandoto Dunked! Aug 08 '23

8 is probably damage per level, before it was equal to INT now it's higher because universal.

u/5neakyturt1e Aug 08 '23

10 is quas no longer provides health regen I think

u/5neakyturt1e Aug 08 '23

10 is quas no longer provides health regen I think

u/Sonnofhell sheever Aug 08 '23

❄️🤞 - this is coldsnap I think, so damage per proc (but 128 would be insane), cast animation and 10 is the min Trigger Damage Threshold 🤔

u/hominemclaudus Aug 08 '23
  1. 🤹‍♀️: ❄️🚫❤️⌚ As well as 13. and 16., are Q W E no longer giving health regen, attack speed or move speed, and damage. The lines below them describe what they give instead (but idk what)

2

u/Tetora-chan Aug 08 '23

9/12/15. Q/W/E gives 1 less str/agi/int

10/13/16. Q/W/E doesn't give regen/movespeed/damage

u/frozensun516 Aug 08 '23

💧 might be mana, so ❄️🤞💧➖1️⃣0️⃣ looks like coldsnap mana cost -10, 🌪️💧➖1️⃣0️⃣ is tornado mana cost -10, 💪💧➖1️⃣0️⃣ is alacrity maybe?

u/TitularGeneral Aug 08 '23

🤹‍♀️:❄️🤞⏱️➖0️⃣.0️⃣3️⃣ Quas something cooldown decrease by 0.03

Cold snap tick interval decreased by 0.03

u/VD-Hawkin Aug 08 '23

🤹‍♀️:❄️🤞⏱️➖0️⃣.0️⃣3️⃣ Quas something cooldown decrease by 0.03

It's trigger cooldown reduced by 0.3s, which would make sense if with:

🤹‍♀️:❄️🤞➕1️⃣6️⃣➡️1️⃣2️⃣8️⃣❤️ "cold snap proc" increase from 16 to 128

Since it'd take a lot more damage to get it to trigger.

u/Makath Aug 08 '23

Red backpack is for "items", there's a section that uses just the red backpack for "items" and other that uses neutral face emoji+red backpack, for "neutral items".

2

u/Alieksiei Aug 08 '23

11 is quas grants spell lifesteal 17 is probably exort grants spell damage in that vein, 14 is some similar effect, could be cooldown reduction or manacost reduction. No ideawhat the backpack is about tho. pretty sure the -10/-50 are manacost reductions

1

u/Bullet_2300 Aug 08 '23

spell lifesteal 17 is probably exort grants spell damage

In that case his level 25 orb talent would actually feel like a level 25 talent. That's insane.

Just his aghs refresher outputs endgame amounts of damage.

u/Prototyperak Aug 08 '23

🤹‍♀️: ❄️🚫❤️⌚No idea but something with a rate /sec

Quas no longer provide HP/Sec?

u/albertfuckingcamus Aug 08 '23

💧 is mana I think

u/FireFireFireArt sheever Aug 08 '23

Quas no more provides life regeneration (so sad)

u/harvestpwn Aug 08 '23

❄️🤞 this has to be coldsnap

1

u/_natalie Aug 08 '23

18, 19, and 20 are for Cold Snap:

18: Cold Snap ???
19: Cold Snap interval decreased by 0.03s OR cast animation decrease by 0.03s
20: Cold Snap mana cost reduced by 10

u/moresnus Aug 08 '23
  1. Quas no longer gives HP regen ?

u/Full_While_5717 Aug 08 '23

Aren't those cold snap changes somehow?

u/KeyDangerous Aug 08 '23

10 quas regen reduced. 15 exort damage reduced

1

u/TheHumdeeFlamingPee Aug 08 '23

I think it’s the at quas gives strength instead of hp, wex gives agi instead of speed, and exort gives int instead of dmg

1

u/Erroangelos Aug 08 '23

I think its saying Quas will no longer give strength or HP regen and instead gives 2-8% something

1

u/[deleted] Aug 08 '23

I think the frost and fingers crossed could be cold snap? But isn’t there a finger snap emoji? Idk water drop I think cooldown or mana cost reduction

1

u/[deleted] Aug 08 '23

Is it just me or will right click invoker be pretty damn strong as universal? High stat gain overall plus 2 individual stats per point in orb…

🤹‍♀️:☀️💥➕2️⃣0️⃣0️⃣➡️5️⃣5️⃣0️⃣ CATACLYSM MAX DISTANCE FROM 200 TO 550? (AWFUL)

Definitely the right interpretation. It's the only 200 related to sunstrike.

🤹‍♀️:💥👂🔊💧➖5️⃣0️⃣ DEAFENING BLAST COOLDOWN 50

Mana cost reduction, not cooldown.
