Staff of the Warlock

5250

Brought From:
Enchanted Artifacts / Arcane Sanctum

+15 all stats
+20 Attack speed
+175% Mana Regeneration
Weakening Attack(passive)(Orb effect)
Magic Blast(active)

Oblivion Staff(1675)

Ghost Scepter(1500)

Void Stone(875)

Staff of the Warlock Recipe(1200?)

Weakening Attack (Orb effect)
Each attack increases the magic damage taken by 4% for 5 seconds. Stacks. When it reaches 10 stacks, the affected enemy is banished (=etheral) for 3 sec and is slowed by 40%, and the stacks are reset to 0.

Magic Blast (point targeted, 150 mana cost, 30sec CD)
Increases the number of passive stacks by 5 in 300 AoE on all enemy targets. For every stack applied the user's attackspeed increases by 2%.

Icon is from Hiveworkshop.

Vote on concept please, not on numbers.

Just a thing to note, being etheral now only grants a 40% magical damage increase not 44% as in ladder, so you might want to change the item to make the target unit etheral on the tenth stack instead of the eleventh (is that even a word ?).

Also adding an additional 200 damage to a 300 damage nuke with a 30 second cooldown and a low mana cost if very powerful. I think you should either remove or at least reduce the bonus damage.

well, i'm wondering why damage and int from oblivion is missing.. but hey.. the orb is cool

magic blast seems imba to me

demondance · 07-03-2010, 07:10 AM

Stack on your staff per hit ur shot to enemy?
Or stack on enemy?

this. very nice item.. simple, but unique.. I love it.. an reduce to 10th attack as said before..

as for eleventh.. yea.. there seems to be such word.. but ppl usually write 11th.

but the 200 bonus is too much.. Its another dagon.. isnt it? the active itself is boring.. I see your point by giving the 200 bonus damage (otherwise some could stop attacking after 9th or 10th attack, depends when you change it, you msut change it. :P).. the active is boring and if some1 wants a synergy.. he may buy dagon.. and he has his spells = mroe damage.. no for active.

Padsoldier · 07-03-2010, 10:57 AM

@Drickz
The bonus int is in the all stats bonus, so the recipe itself provides a minimal int bonus and higher other stats. I haven't added the damage, because it would be imba and the items effects don't need it.

@demondance
The stacks go on the enemy.

I reduced the bonus damage by 100 (to 100), but I have no unique idea for the active spell. And don't forget you have to score 10 hits on the enemy, what is very hard with an int hero, non-ints won't buy it probably.
Thanks for the replies.

Very nice, this could be a good orb for nukers, but it might promote DPS builds for people like Zeus and Lina. All in all T-Up

cp14 · 07-03-2010, 11:27 AM

FIERY SOULS + THIS = 9099999999 dmg laguna blade!!!!

t-up

edit:
@ the dude above: zeus never attacks.

Drickosh · 07-03-2010, 02:02 PM

i c.. t-up..

btw in your concept which hero will buy this? agi nuker? because +15 agi, +IAS to intel hero is a waste

edit2: Windrunner has her orb!!

Mordax · 07-04-2010, 06:19 AM

good concept
i like it

Dc.Nilbog · 07-04-2010, 08:07 AM

This would be a superb item at mid game if you manage to farm it that fast. The + magic damage is an idea on a item and should be implemented, and your item uniquely reflects that. Thumbs up

The Aussie speaks the truth. This can add a nice last-hitting DPS to heavy nukers while giving them something to promote them above being little more than glass cannons. Also, it's named after my favourite hero (Warlock) so how can I refuse?

All in all this is actually a very good and thoughtful item. I like it

Padsoldier · 07-15-2010, 12:42 PM

bump

gnaLor · 07-15-2010, 02:11 PM

Finally another good orb for nukers besides skadi. But magic blast is like a dagon.
Thats a bit imba considering that this item gives much better stats than dagon + a nice orb. Well just balance, I like that item

Some nice (not support) lategame power for casters.

Razomka · 08-23-2010, 01:36 AM

I feel that the item should just keep the ghost sceptre active because it is good and people don't want to lose that.

so t-null for now but I do like it.

Fate Trap · 08-23-2010, 04:39 AM

I T-up on this... The concept is very nice and original IMO...

Vyebrows · 08-23-2010, 05:22 AM

late game intel usefulness, love it

Windsong · 10-17-2010, 11:02 AM

At last something that makes Ethereal blade worthy for casters ^^ - Just imagine p00gle5 with Decrep lv 4, EB, and This

It would be a perma banish.

T-up

baddyboy · 10-17-2010, 11:36 AM

Thanks for the replies.
Some of you said, that Magic Blast is too powerful or too simple, what'd you do with it?
