Notes:

• Interrupts the user's channeling spells upon cast.

• Only refreshes items in the user's inventory. Items in the stash, in other units' inventories or dropped items are unaffected.

• Only refreshes items owned by the user. Allied items in the inventory are not refreshed.

• Refreshes all spells owned by the user. This includes hidden or inactive spells (e.g. invoked spells or Battle Cry).
  • This means that it does not refresh all spells for Rubick. Stolen spells are only refreshed when he owns them upon refreshing.

• Also replenishes all charges of charge-based abilities.

• Does not refresh the cooldown of Cloak and Dagger and Nature's Guise’s fade delay as well as Drunken Brawler's certain crit/evasion timers.

• Visually resets the cooldown of Tranquil Boots, but does not skip the broken state.

• Does not refresh Refresher Orb's cooldown, or the cooldown of other Refresher Shards.

• Does not share cooldown with Refresher Orb.

Tips

• The Refresher Shard is basically a Refresher Orb with a single charge, so the same tips apply to it.
• However, due to it having no mana cost, and no gold cost, it opens a lot of possibilities for heroes who normally don't or can't buy a Refresher Orb, either due to the lack of mana supporting combos, being unable to farm it up, or it being too ineffective for the item slot.
• The Refresher Shard does not share a cooldown with Refresher Orb. Combined with the lack of a mana cost, this means it makes it possible for heroes who already have a Refresher Orb to use their spells three times in a fight.
• In some scenarios, it might be worth it to sell the Refresher Shard for its selling price of 500 gold to buy a key item sooner rather than consuming it.

Trivia

• The Refresher Shard's icon and in-game model are based on the Refresher Orb. Its active uses the same sound and visual effect as Refresher Orb.
