[Tweak]Demonic Purge

[Flame13]

No drastic change, it only buffs the damage a little and rescales cooldown for exchange. Since the current is just stupid to level it for 100 damage...in late game that damage is equal to 0...now it deals DOT which is better than damage at end also it deals +100 damage at level 2 and +300 at level 3. Not a drastic change.

Problem is that Medusa already has AOE purge so this little single target spells seems very weak when you compare it to Stone Gaze. Also stone gaze deals damage to illusions too. What demonic purge has in plus is 2 seconds stun, 40 seconds lower cooldown and 300/400/500 damage...Dunno about you but if I see Omniknight I rather choose medusa to burn off guardian angel...

Meh. T-null.
That is pretty imba with Soul Catcher?

[Flame13]

soul catcher...hmmm hard to aim, gives max 50% bonus damage...base magic resistance reduces it to +30% bonus damage=nope it isn't any better...

Not better dps than viper strike...and viper strike is way lower cooldown altough it has no stun just slow...

[E02K]

T-up, got tired to get ksed when i use DP on enemy.

[Redeemed A.I.]

I like it.Maybe less smoother though,but I still like it.

T-up.

And I agree about the ks thing too.

[PowerChaos]

Great. t-up

[crinckle]

T-Up. But current purge deals 200/300/400 damage not 300/400/500 so it is a pretty big buff.

[Lithary]

Agreed with OP, T-up!

[The Godplayer]

i dont think its needed...eredar is still a terrifying lane opponent and this thing near guarantees a kill, when used with catcher and disruption.

and yes this is pretty overpowered with catcher.

so...t-null

[doomed2die]

T-Up. It really is a pretty crappy ultimate, no lies.

[pokesam94]

Its not a major buff, when u add all the numbers up soul catcher doesnt give that much extra...

Kinda this. You can't simply buff skills without thinking about his other skills. His ulti synergises very well with his other skills and that's the point. A purged enemy will mostly die due to easy stack of poison, amplified damage and illus and own attack, so giving this skill more damage seems wrong imo.

[SeNK3IG3mInI]

lvl 11 with a 500 damage and slow is quite imba..

[Flame13]

The damage is irrelevant...since even with Soul Catcher (which is hard to aim and luck based skill) the damage is 300/450/750...what I want is to make it DoT...
The damage buff I suggested makes it 300/600/900 damage...but adds some minor cooldown...

The main problem is that Demonic Purge is not worth to be leveled...it gives such a small damage buff...especially when you see a 3000 HP cent or Ursa...

I don't really understand...it's not a big buff and he is quite a weak hero...I'd rather take someone else for that purge and damage...

[shreyuz]

He is not weak at all
He has absolutely imba scaling spells compared to any other caster.

Soul catcher is absolutely devastating spell and actually much easier to aim than most people think.
Disruption is a terrific all round spell
Demonic purge offers slow,purge,damage all rolled in one
Poison is a terrifying lane spell.

He is the single most powerful laner in DOTA.I never lose a lane with him even against OD/Rexxar/Lich/Bat, and wreck havoc to agl hereos in mid game..
Disruption gives your team insane DPS.

Anyway, thats my feeling. Changing Purge damage to DPS is ok..But increasing its damage is unfair

[menage0a0trois]

I mostly agree with shreyuz.

SD is NOT weak.

And also, you don't take DP for it's damage, though it definitely helps. It's an incredible slow that removes buffs. Do you know how good that is? Yes, it's situational, but in those situations it's f*cking awesome.

Also, why in the world are you trying to boost his damage output? He already deals INCREDIBLE amounts of damage.

[Green Yoshi]

T-down. This is a buff to the total damage.

50/75/100 dps t-up

Maybe...
I mostly play in pubs and it's ultra weak there...
