Notes:
- Interrupts the caster's channeling abilities upon cast.
- Casting Regenerate while having no charges puts the item on cooldown without any other effect.
- Always casts on self in one click. Can be cast on allies with Ctrl.
- Successive casts on the same target do not stack, but refresh the duration instead.
- Can only target heroes (including illusions) and creep-heroes.
- The owner of the item does not have to face the selected target to use the item on them.
- Grants the user 40.74 health and 22.22 mana regeneration over the duration.
- All 2.7 charges together can regenerate up to 297 health and 162 mana.
- Damage greater than 0 from any player (including allies, excluding self) or Roshan dispels the effect.
- Does not get dispelled by damage flagged as HP Removal.
- If affected by the Rejuvenation Aura buff and while not storing a Rune, the Bottle's charges get replenished, the buff gets removed, and a 1-second timer starts.
- While this timer runs, the Bottle cannot replenish, effectively working like a fixed cooldown.
- The item must be in the main inventory space for this. Does not replenish when in the Backpack or the Stash.
- Since the process also removes the fountain's buff, the Bottle replenishes one last time after leaving the fountain area.
- This means depending on the timing, it is possible to use Regenerate 1‒2 times before it replenishes one last time.

Undispellable
Notes:
- While having a Bottle,
Right Click a rune stores it in the bottle, instead of activating it.
- Runes cannot be stored when the bottle is in the backpack. A Bottle storing a rune cannot be moved into the Backpack either.
- The Bottle does not need to be empty to store runes. A full Bottle can be used to store runes as well.
- Only heroes and the Spirit Bear can store runes. Illusions and Couriers cannot.
- Only one rune can be stored in a Bottle at a time. Attempting to store another rune into it just directly uses the new targeted rune.
- However, it is possible to have multiple Bottles in the inventory and store a rune with each of them.
- While having a rune stored, the Regenerate ability activates the rune, instead of regenerating the user.
- Since it is the same active ability, it still interrupts the caster's channeling abilities upon cast, and breaks invisibility.
- If the stored rune is not manually activated within 90 seconds, it gets activated automatically.
- Unlike a manual cast, this automatic activation does not interrupt the owner in any way, and does not break invisibility.
- If the owner is dead while this happens, the stored rune disappears without applying any of its effects. The charges still get replenished.
- If a stored rune gets activated in any way, the Bottle's charges get replenished. This happens even if the rune was automatically activated while dead.
- Stored Power Runes replenish all 3 charges, while the Bounty Rune and Water Rune replenish it to 2/3 charges.
- If a Bounty or Water Rune was stored while the Bottle had more than 2 charges, activating it does not affect the charges.
Rune Types[]
Notes:
- The initial runes spawning at the 0:00 minute mark give a fixed amount of 40
gold to each player.
- Following Bounty Runes grant a base amount of 36 , plus 9 extra gold for every 5 minutes past.
- When bottling a Bounty Rune, it grants gold based on the time at which it is activated, not bottled.
- Using a stored Bounty Rune with Bottle only grant 2 charges.
- Grants reliable gold to each player of the team that picks it up.
- An over-head text shows how much gold was given exactly. This number is not visible to enemies.
- When gaining gold from a Bounty Rune, a small golden particle effect briefly bursts from the player, visible to everyone.
- In Turbo Mode, the gold given by Bounty Runes is doubled, despite the notification message showing standard values.
Notes:
- Stacks multiplicatively with other sources of percentage-based cooldown reductions.
- Stacks multiplicatively with other sources of mana loss reduction.
- The buff is applied to invulnerable and hidden units.
- The buff of multiple Arcane Runes does not stack, but refreshes the duration instead.
Notes:
- Grants flat bonus attack damage based on the affected unit's main attack damage. Does not further increase bonus attack damage.
- The hero's current main attack damage is checked periodically, and the bonuses are adapted instantly.
- The buff is applied to invulnerable and hidden units.
- The buff of multiple Double Damage Runes does not stack, but refreshes the duration instead.
Notes:
- The buff is applied to invulnerable and hidden units.
- The buff of multiple Haste Runes does not stack, but refreshes the duration instead.

Notes:
- The user is invulnerable, hidden and spell immune during the split time.
- Applies a basic dispel on the owner upon cast.
- Resets all current attack and spell targeting orders from other units on the owner.
- After the split time, the caster reappears with their illusions.
- The reappear locations are based on the caster's position upon cast, with one appearing at the cast location, and the others north, east, south or west from that point.
- The distance in between each is 108 range if the hero has a collision size of 24, and 72 if the collision size is 8.
- Though the formation is always the same, the caster and their illusions take a random position in the formation and have all the same facing angle.
- Orders the user to stop after the split time, canceling all queued orders, and orders given during the split time.
- Activating a new Illusion Rune while already having illusions from a previous Illusion Rune does not replace them.
Notes:
- During the fade time, the hero can cast spells, use items and perform attacks without breaking the invisibility.
- Invisibility is broken upon reaching the cast point of spells or items, or upon successfully landing an attack.
- The invisible hero can pick up or drop items without breaking the invisibility. However, attacking them breaks it.
- Invisibility from the Invisibility Rune does not turn the hero phased, so it still can block unit pathing.
- The buff is applied to invulnerable and hidden units.
- The buff of multiple Invisibility Runes does not stack, but refreshes the duration instead.
Notes:
- Can fully regenerate a unit's health and mana within 16.67 seconds.
- The buff disappears once the hero is at full health and mana.
- Damage greater than 0 from any player (including allies and self) or Roshan dispels the effect.
- Does not get dispelled by damage flagged as HP Removal.
- The buff is applied to invulnerable and hidden units.
- The buff of multiple Regeneration Runes does not stack, but refreshes the duration instead.

Tips[]
- Use the Bottle repeatedly at the fountain to regenerate faster.
- The Bottle can be used as a quick healing item that can be easily replenished, or to save up a rune for later use. Though it costs significantly more than other consumables, the Bottle does not have limited uses, as it can be refilled at the fountain at any time.
- Since Rejuvenation Aura's aura lingers for 3 seconds, so for a brief time after leaving the fountain, Bottles can still be refilled.
- Upon activating an Invisibility Rune, Bottle can be used within the 2 seconds fade time of the invisibility without breaking it, allowing the player to heal up while going invisible.
- Although Store Rune does not interrupt channeling abilities upon automatically activating a rune, the Illusion Rune does interrupt them, since one of its effects is to disable the hero while shuffling their position with the created illusions.
Trivia[]
- Prior to the February 01, 2018 Patch, Bottle's passive ability, Store Rune, did not have an official name. The name was taken from the Dota 2 Wiki and officially implemented into Dota 2.
