Talk:Vision

Invisibility
Does anyone have any issue with me making a separate page for Invisibility and True Sight? If not, I'll probably get to it in a day or two.
 * Doesn't seem necessary to me, but I'll give you the benefit of the doubt if you think it's the right thing do do. :-) --Kroocsiogsi 02:58, 27 June 2012 (UTC)

Venomancer's night vision
Isn't Venomancer has the same night vision as the day one thus he must be listed in the table of exceptions? 46.236.164.111 12:01, 12 March 2013 (UTC)


 * I do not believe that's the case. Venomancer has 1800/800 just like most heroes. --PimpadelicX 12:58, 01 May 2014 (UTC)

Phantom Spots
There needs to be a topic on phatom spots around Roshan. — The preceding unsigned comment was added by 186.213.65.99 (talk) • (contribs) 14:37, April 2, 2013

Flying vision
Will continue to work on this section later, including ordering. Opinions on whether or not it is worth listing vision given by projectiles, or just things such as sprout/static remnant?


 * I don't know where to write it so I will leave it here.


 * Pudge's Heathook doesn't give vision "on projectile". It gives vision only if hook hits the target and the vision is granted only for the area where hook latched the target. Vision is granted for 4 seconds.


 * Ember spirit's remnants 400 vision is not flying, it's common/usual (call it as you want). The flying vision is about 150.


 * Morphling's Waveform doesn't seem to give any vision at all.


 * Vengeful Spirit: would be nice to add that vision is granted for 3 seconds.


 * Venomancer's Venomous Gale flying vision is about 150, not 400.




 * Implemented those changes and some more. But Venomous Gale is definitely 400 units. --Artorp (talk) 13:53, 4 May 2014 (UTC)


 * September 09, 2011 Patch "Waveform now properly gives 1000/1000 flying vision during movement and for 0.94 seconds at the destination"
 * I have not test this, but when I added Waveform originally, I based it off of those patch notes. --PimpadelicX 16:12, 5 May 2014 (UTC)

Ember Spirits Ultimate
Ember's ultimate needs to be added to the list of things that give vision,


 * Alright, it's been added. --PimpadelicX 01:06, 01 May 2014 (UTC)

New Abilities Added for Flying Vision
I just added about 10 abilities to the list, all from previous Patch Notes. I tested most of them myself, and the only problem I noticed was Razor's Static Link. The August 02, 2011 Patch Notes stated that it gave 800/800 Flying Vision for 3.34 seconds, but I noticed it gave that vision for the entire duration of Static Link (Ranging from half a second to the full 8 seconds). --PimpadelicX 12:57, 01 May 2014 (UTC)


 * Nice work.
 * Razor's Static Link gives the target's vision to the caster, it's not (necessary) flying vision. Just like Bounty Hunter's Track. --Artorp (talk) 15:32, 1 May 2014 (UTC)

Invoker's Chaos Meteor as a source of ground vision. It's 300 units radius on projectile (vision is granted only when meteor hits the ground) with linger time 0. However vision of the very last area where meteor crumbles is granted for extra 3 seconds.

Tusk's Ice Shards grant only 150 units radius on projectile.

Night Stalker with Aghanim's Scepter as a source of flying vision (1200 at day/1800 at night).

Keeper of the Light with Aghanim's Scepter as a source of flying vision (1800 at day/800 at night).

I think that's it. All of it I tested myself. It would be nice is someone could add it to the page because I can't do the appearance. Thanks!


 * Wow, that's a lot of spells, great work. I'm surprised my couple changes last week would get people so interested in revitalizing "Vision". I added your changes related to Flying Vision, but someone else seems to be adding your Ground/Linked Vision spells at the moment. [Edit] Looks like that was you :P.  --PimpadelicX 16:55, 5 May 2014 (UTC)


 * Yeah, I figured out how to edit things so added all of these sources of vision. Check for any mistakes to be sure if you want!

Sorry, I didn't know how to edit the discussion thread properly. Please add the following two abilities as both of them provide vision: Io's Relocate providing 300 flying vision during the effect delay and Spirirt Breaker's Nether Strike giving vision of the target during the cast time.

Best regards psioniC


 * Spirit Breaker's Charge is also missing, I think. 95.90.253.77 21:09, 17 September 2015 (UTC)

Barathrum / Spirit Breaker charge vision
I wanted to add Spirit Breaker charge in spells that give vision, but i don't know where to add it. Flying? Ground? I let someone that knows better the responsibility to do it. ^_^

Shared Vision - Sniper - Assassinate
It says 2 second duration right now. However, in the notes of the ultimate on http://dota2.gamepedia.com/Sniper#Assassinate it says that the debuff lasts 4 seconds at most. Which one is it? I presume that 4 seconds is the correct value? If someone know it is true, please change this page from "Duration: 2" to "Duration: 2 to max 4".
 * It lasts 4 seconds. Easy way to test it is to send a unit back to base with chen and cast assassinate on it before it's moved to based. Chen tp doesn't disjoint. http://i.imgur.com/IJynanM.png. Bu3ny (talk) 00:10, 4 January 2015 (UTC)

Update the list of abilities that provide vision
There are lots of abilities still missing on these lists (e.g. Sven's Storm Hammer, Io's Relocate and Spirirt Breaker's Nether Strike). I suggest updating the lists when 6.85 hits (Icefrog said it should be released next week). Psion1C (talk) 15:07, 20 September 2015 (UTC)
