Applies damage on spell immune enemies. Does not apply debuff on spell immune enemies.Modifiers
modifier_item_silver_edge_windwalk: Dispellable with death only.
modifier_silver_edge_debuff: Dispellable with death only.Notes:
- The attack out of Silver Edge's Shadow Walk cannot miss.
- Does not interrupt the user's channeling spells upon cast.
- The bonus damage is dealt in one instance together with the attack damage, and counts as attack damage as well.
- It can be lifestealed off of, and is considered by cleave, but not by crit.
- It is not affected by percentage-based attack damage bonuses or reductions, but can be reduced with flat reductions.
- Applies a break on the target when attacking from invisibility, disabling passive abilities.
- Places the debuff before the attack damage is applied, but still relies on the attack (or projectile) to hit.
- The invisibility is lost upon reaching the cast point of spells, or upon finishing an attack (for ranged heroes upon projectile launch).
- Unlike Shadow Blade, Silver Edge does not apply the damage if an attack hits during the fade time.
- Allows the user to pass through other units, including wards, but not through buildings.
- The user can pick up and drop items without breaking the invisibility.
- Shares cooldown with Shadow Blade.
Recommended Heroes[edit]
- Dragon Knight benefits well with the stats provided by Silver Edge. In addition to it, the invisibility and break gives him more potential as a carry.
- Silver Edge allows Legion Commander to easily gank a lone enemy for Duels.
- A natural Shadow Blade builder, Slark can upgrade to Silver Edge to gain more attributes and the ability to break the enemy.
- The invisibility can still be activated by Spirit Breaker while charging with Charge of Darkness, giving it less time for the enemy to retaliate against him.
Heroes who lack mobility benefits well with Silver Edge:
Tips[edit]
- Be aware that the Break mechanic has no effect on your opponents' items. If they have a Daedalus or Butterfly, for example, they will still receive the full benefits of these items.
- Consider purchasing this item if the enemy has troubling passives such as Blur, Berserker's Blood, Fury Swipes, Bristleback, Untouchable, and Dispersion.
- Remember that abilities using stacks (such as Reactive Armor, Necromastery and Fury Swipes) are only prevented from gaining or placing new stacks. If the target already has existing stacks (on themselves or on their target), their passive can still function until the stacks expire (such as Reactive Armor's regeneration/armor and Fury Swipes' additional damage).
