В ночь на 19 февраля в Dota 2 вышел глобальный патч 7.38. Разработчики значительно изменили баланс героев и предметов, перенесли логово Рошана на реку, а также добавили в игру новый ресурс и нейтральных крипов.
Tormentor spawns repositioned to the corners of the map
There is only a single Tormentor active at a time
Tormentor now spawns for the first time at 15:00
Tormentor now grants 250 gold to each team member on death
Tormentor is also dependent on the day and night cycle, so it's at Radiant side at night and at Dire's side at day. As a result, it will always appear at the Radiant side first
Due to this Roshan and Tormentor are always on opposite sides
Tormentor's abilities now scale with game time instead of the number of deaths
Unyielding Shield: Damage absorb rescaled from 2500 + (200 per death) to 1900 + (20 per minute of game time)
Unyielding Shield: Barrier regeneration rescaled from 100 + (100 per death) to 30 + (5 per minute of game time)
Reflect: Damage percentage rescaled from 90 + (20 per death) to 50 + (2 per minute of game time)
The Shining: Damage per second increased from 30 to 60
The Shining: Radius decreased from 1200 to 1000
Alleviation: New ability. After dying, the Tormentor leaves behind a 900 radius aura that increases health regeneration of all units in the area by 2% of their Max Health. Lasts 15s
Changed the way Healing Lotuses are collected from Lotus Pools:
Lotus Pools now have three entrances and an empty region in the center
Heroes will automatically gather lotuses when within 350 units of the center of a pool as long as they have available space in their inventory
The first Lotus takes 1.5s to collect, and each subsequent lotus in a row takes 30% less time
The timer only counts down when all heroes
