Item Armlet Unholy Strength
Undispellable
- Does not interrupt the owner's channeling spells upon toggling.
- Upon toggling on, it instantly provides the attack damage and starts draining Expression error: Unrecognized punctuation character "{". health in 0.11 second intervals.
- Grants Expression error: Unrecognized punctuation character "{". strength in 0.1 second intervals, so it needs 0.6 seconds to grant the full strength bonus.
- The armor is granted after the 0.6 seconds, and not instantly.
- Grants a total of {{#show:Armlet of Mordiggian|?active health#}} health (Expression error: Unrecognized punctuation character "{". when considering the health drain) and {{#show:Armlet of Mordiggian|?active health regeneration flat#}} health regeneration.
- Does not drain health while invulnerable or hidden.
- Health drain cannot bring the owner's health below 1. Does not toggle itself off when reaching 1 health.
- Considering the passive health regen and the regen gained from the strength, it effectively costs Expression error: Unrecognized punctuation character "{". health per second.
- When toggling off, all bonuses are instantly lost. However, it cannot bring the user below 1 health.
- Unholy Strength does not persist through the user's death. If it was active upon death, the user respawns with it deactivated.
- Multiple instances of Unholy Strength do not stack.
- If multiple Armlets are toggled on, turning off any Armlet removes the Unholy Strength buff.
Recommended heroes
- Inner Vitality helps with negating the health drain from the Armlet, and Berserker's Blood greatly synergizes with the item, with the health drain helping keep Huskar's health at a low level, giving him high magic resistance and a great amount of attack speed.
- Lifestealer is a durable hero with a great way of keeping himself topped off on health thanks to Feast and Open Wounds, meaning that he is not bothered by the health loss of the item, as well as receiving stats that are needed, such as extra armor, damage and attack speed.
- Slardar is a durable strength hero, meaning that he will not have the hardest time negating the health cost of the Armlet, and it increases the damage dealt by Bash of the Deep through the added attack speed.
- Armlet provides a lot of damage at the cost of draining your own health, however Lua error in Module:Ability_ID at line 61: Could not find Cargo data for "Vampiric Aura". easily negates the health drain effect making it a great item of him.
- As a durable hero with the ability to lifesteal thanks to Chaos Strike and with Armlet's bonus health when activated transferred to illussions summoned by Phantasm, Armlet of Mordiggian is one of the best item choices for the hero.
- Both Press the Attack and Moment of Courage provide Legion_Commander with a great amount of health regeneration, making her incredibly sustainable and a great carrier of the item.
- Chemical Rage negates the health draining effect from the Armlet of Mordiggian, and the extra maximum health as well as the damage bonus are not bad attributes for him.
Situational
- With the health regeneration from Dragon Blood, Dragon Knight will have no problem with activating Armlet for prolonged periods of time.
- By toggling Unholy Strength on before attacking with Tidebringer and toggling it off after, Kunkka can reliably increase his damage output while minimizing the health drain.
- Very situational, the attack speed from Armlet of Mordiggian helps with applying Greater Bash. It buffs him with added HP, Regeneration and Armor for a fight he would not otherwise survive for the low cost of the Armlet.
- The added damage allows Night Stalker to finish his targets faster than if he did not have an Armlet. It is also very easy to Armlet toggle to save oneself from a Tower projectile due to Night Stalker's incredible movement speed.
- Sven's ultimate increases Sven's attack damage based on how much strength he has. The extra strength from a toggled Armlet significantly increases Sven's attack damage during God's Strength.
Tips
- The Armlet is the most cost-effective item to build, especially on strength heroes that benefit most from its DPS increase. It is also useful on heroes with illusions or abilities that increase their base damage (like Sven's ultimate).
- When toggled on, Armlet increases maximum and current health by 500. This means when not at full health, it can effectively work as a temporary heal. However, it also has the opposite effect when toggling off, instantly reducing the hero's health by 500 (but not below 1). When toggled properly, this allows heroes at low health to survive and turn fights.
- This item is very good with lifesteal, and if the user's damage output is high enough it can negate the health loss, depending on the amount of lifesteal the user has.
- The Heart of Tarrasque's passive regen vastly overturns the health loss, allowing to have the Armlet constantly active, as long as the heart does not get disabled. The health loss of Armlet does not disable the regeneration of Heart of Tarrasque either, since it is considered HP Removal.
- Lone Druid's Spirit Bear is normally affected by the health drain, but does not benefit from the strength bonus.
Trivia
- Armlet of Mordiggian is named after Mordiggian, a deity in the Cthulhu Mythos created by Clark Ashton Smith in his story The Charnel God (1934), whose powers consist of sucking away life force and whose cult consists entirely of ghouls.
