Talk:Techies

There is no direct cap to the amount of Remote Mines you may place at once, it is only limited by the cooldown/duration.

Shouldn't this say Theoretically, you can have 48 Remote mines at the same time before one expires (if you cast one straight away every time it's available). ?

Is it possible to detonate your ult-mines while you are dead? Kazemi 18:38, 15 May 2013 (UTC)
 * Yes, but without "Focused Detonate" you must select mines manually...best hiro ever...

Rename
Goblin Techies > Techies Tomarzig 11:55, 6 August 2013 (GMT+7 time)


 * Or to Greevil Techies as suggested on the playdota.com forums would be fine too. Kevinliew 2:30, 21 August 2013 (GMT+8 time)


 * We usually delay renaming pages until we have names/titles officially appearing in the game files. The reason for this is that renaming a hero is actually quite a bit of work, as there are multiple pages that need changing and moving, as well as a large number of templates and images. As for Greevil Techies, that wouldn't be "fine too". We don't know what race they will be - that they will become Greevils is speculation. Until we have an official name from Valve (aside from voicelines), there's no need or use to change names/pages. - Hef aistus  18:01, 20 August 2013 (UTC)

Trivia Removal
Witch Doctor has had Taunt: Celebration of Death. Removed the claim that Techies would be the first to receive such a Taunt as it is untrue. -Anonymous


 * What the writer said was true. He was saying Goblin Techies would be the first to receive a taunt before they were released in the game. As far as I know, Witch Doctor received his taunt after his release. Either way, the trivia wasn't interesting and I was considering removing it myself anyway. --PimpadelicX (talk)

Mines damage placed before levelled up?
If you placed level 1 mines, after that you levelled up to level 2 mine. Did your previous mines do the damage of level 2 mines or they still did level 1 mine damage?

They would do the same damage as level one... You can select the mines and see its a level one mine if I remember corretly..

Why would any previous stasis, remotes, or mines ever level up if you put more points into them? Makes no sense.

Trollface & Mythbusters trivia?
The Remote Mines look like they undeniably have a trollface on them. Does anyone think that the line tech_regen_02.mp3 "I think your eyebrow's growing back" could be a reference the the explosive incident with Adam Savage of the Mythbusters? --GaussNine 9/3/14 9:05PM EST
