Death

  • Interrupts the caster's channeling abilities upon cast.
  • Always self-casts upon cast.
    • With Ctrl, an ally target has to be selected. Can be cast without having to face the target.
    • Can be cast on untargetable units indirectly through their hero portrait.
    • Treat clones, illusions and creep-heroes as heroes.
  • Successive casts on the same target do not stack but refresh the duration.
  • Casting Regenerate while having no charges visually puts the item on cooldown.
  • Grants 40.74 health and 22.22 mana regeneration over its duration.
    • All charges together can regenerate up to 330 health and 180 mana.
  • Player-based damage, regardless of factions, and Roshan icon Roshan-based damage greater than 0 (after reductions) dispels the effect.
    • Does not get dispelled by self-damage sources and damage flagged as HP Removal.
  • While being affected by the Rejuvenation Aura icon Rejuvenation Aura buff and not storing a Rune, Regenerate's charges are replenished, the buff gets removed, then a 1-second timer starts.
    • Within this replenishment time, the Bottle does not replenish, effectively working like a fixed cooldown.
    • Only replenish charges while the item is in the wielder's inventory. Does not replenish when in the backpack or in the stash.
    • Since the process also removes the fountain's buff, the Bottle replenishes one last time after leaving the fountain area.
    • Therefore, depending on the timing, it is possible to use Regenerate up to 2 times before it replenishes for the last time.
  • Animal Courier Radiant minimap icon Couriers do not replenish charges while being affected by Rejuvenation Aura.


Store Rune
Ability
Passive
Affects
Self
Runes can be stored in the bottle for later use by right-clicking them. Unused runes will automatically activate after 90 seconds.

Using a stored rune fully refills the Bottle.
Cast Range: 100
Max Rune Stored: 1
Rune Store Duration: 90
Cannot be used by illusions.
Illusion Notes:
Cannot Store Rune and does not bestowed the stored rune effects.

  • Store Rune is not disabled by mute sources.
  • Keyboard White Mouse Right Right Click on a Rune now stores it, instead of activating it.
  • Only 1 rune can be stored in a Bottle at a time. Attempting to store another rune activates the rune instead.
    • However, each Bottle works independently and can store different runes with each of them.
  • This ability cannot be used when the item is within the backpack.
    • Once a rune is stored, the item cannot be moved into the backpack as well.
  • While having a rune stored, Bottle icon Regenerate activates the rune, instead of regenerating the wielder.
  • The store rune is passively activated within 90 seconds.
    • However, the passive activation neither interrupts the wielder in any way nor breaks invisibility.
    • The Illusion Rune minimap icon Illusion Rune interrupts the wielder's channeling abilities upon passively activated.
    • The stored rune disappears without applying any of its effects when the wielder is dead while the rune store duration is up.
  • Despite the description, Bottle icon Regenerate charges are replenished when a rune is stored, not activated.
