What the item does
Passive: Hallowed
Every 4 seconds, the owner gains a charge of this ability and 15% movement speed for 5 seconds. Maximum charges: 3.
When the owner takes damage from a player-controlled unit or Roshan, all charges are spent to grant an all-damage barrier for 5 seconds, with 120 health per charge (maximum: 360).
How I decide
«Barrier charges are prepared between trades, not after the hit.»
Ruslan UkrainskyiSpeaking through Rodya
- 01 Situation
- I can survive the next focus better if a Hallowed reserve has built up beforehand.
- 02 My decision
- I check accumulated charges before contact and account for how much protection I will actually get when the first damage arrives.
- 03 What I avoid
- Treat another entry as fully protected immediately after using every charge.
When I would buy it
Against repeated focus fire, if there is time between attempts to build up charges.
