Drives a unit into a bloodthirsty rage during which a unit deals, and takes, increased damage. Units affected by Bloodrage will be healed for a percentage of the max health of any units they kill. Units affected by Bloodrage when killed will heal a percentage of their max health to their killer. If you do not get the last hit, but are within 300 AoE of the dying hero, you will take 50% of the heal.

Strygwyr shares his animalistic thirst for bloodshed.

  • This ability got reworked into the current Bloodrage icon Bloodrage in the 7.27b gameplay patch.
  • Bloodrage amplifies all three damage types the bloodraged unit deals and takes, including self-inflicted damage and damage dealt by allies.
  • The heal is based on the dying unit's maximum health, and not on the health of the unit that gets healed.
  • Denying allies while bloodraged, or denying bloodraged allies heals the killing unit.
  • Suiciding heroes still heal buffed allied units when within the radius, but for halved values.
  • When a bloodraged unit attacks another bloodraged unit, the damage is overall amplified by 23.2%/34.52%/46.32%/58.6%, and in case of kill, the heal value is doubled.
  • Successive casts with different levels on a same target only refresh the duration, but do not update the damage amplification and heal percentage.
  • The disable help function prevents an allied Bloodseeker from casting this ability on you.

Strygwyr becomes frenzied when blood is spilled.

  • This ability got reworked into the current Thirst icon Thirst in the 7.27b gameplay patch.
  • The first stack is applied when an enemy hero is below 75% health and the last when below 26%.
  • Grants 0.6/0.9/1.2/1.5 attack speed and 0.28%/0.48%/0.68%/0.88% (Talent 0.56%/0.76%/0.96%/1.16%) movement speed for each percent of missing health between 75% and 25%.
    • However, since the HUD does not show decimals, attack speed increases by 1 for every missing 1.67%/1.11%/0.83%/0.67% health, and movement speed by 1% for every missing 3.57%/2.08%/1.47%/1.14% (Talent 1.79%/1.32%/1.04%/0.86%) health.
  • When an enemy hero drops below 25% health, Thirst provides True Sight over the target and makes both their hero model and minimap icon visible through the Fog of War.
  • When enemies are revealed by Thirst, a debuff and particle effects are placed on them, which is visible to everyone.
  • Bloodseeker himself also gets a status buff and particle effects and speaks certain lines, making it clear that an enemy is currently being revealed by Thirst.
  • Thirst is not triggered by enemy illusions, but is triggered by hero clones.
  • The bonuses linger for 4 seconds if the enemy dies. However, it does not linger, and disappears immediately if the enemy has Aegis of the Immortal icon Aegis of the Immortal or Reincarnation icon Reincarnation.
    • The bonuses are always the maximum values, despite the health percentage the enemy had right before the killing blow.
  • This is how much attack speed and movement speed Bloodseeker gains from Thirst with a certain amount of heroes being below 25% of their maximum health:
    • 1 Hero: 30/45/60/75 attack speed and 14%/24%/34%/44% (Talent 28%/38%/48%/58%) movement speed
    • 2 Heroes: 60/90/120/150 attack speed and 28%/48%/68%/88% (Talent 56%/76%/96%/116%) movement speed
    • 3 Heroes: 90/135/180/225 attack speed and 42%/72%/102%/132% (Talent 84%/114%/144%/174%) movement speed
    • 4 Heroes: 120/180/240/300 attack speed and 56%/96%/136%/176% (Talent 112%/152%/192%/232%) movement speed
    • 5 Heroes: 150/225/300/375 attack speed and 70%/120%/170%/220% (Talent 140%/190%/240%/290%) movement speed
