Notes:

  • If the target is more than 850 range away, the caster moves to the target until it is within 600 range before casting.
  • When casting on allies, the user does not have to face the targeted ally to cast it. Does not interrupt the target`s channeling spells.
  • During the fade time, the unit can still cast spells, use items and perform attacks.
  • After the fade time, the unit automatically stops moving or attacking, but it does not stop spell casts.
  • While invisible, the unit is phased, meaning other units can walk through it without getting blocked.
  • The invisibility is lost upon reaching the cast point of spells or items or upon performing an attack.

Notes
  • Does not break channeling abilities when activated.
  • Removes collision from the invisible hero.
  • Moving during the fade time does not prevent invisibility.
  • Automatically stops movement after the fade time.
  • Shadow Amulet has a nearby buffer range, allowing it to be cast on allies within 850 range. Casting outside of this range results in the default 600 range being used instead of the buffer.

Shadow Amulet should only be purchased in the process of building toward Shadow Blade.
