Lightning Shield

Any

• This ability got replaced by Ignite in the 6.00 gameplay patch.

• Can be cast on any enemy, allied units and own units, except on self. Cannot be cast on wards and buildings.

• Deals damage to enemy and allied units alike. Does not damage the unit the shield was put on.

• Multiple shields can damage the same units.

• Deals 18/24/30/36 damage in 0.5 second intervals.

• Pre 5.80, Multicast used to cause this spell to be cast 1/2/3 extra times on random units (including self) within a 600 radius around Ogre Magi.

• From 5.80 on, Multicast no longer caused it to be cast multiple times, but increased its damage per second and mana cost instead.

• This is how much damage per second Lightning Shield dealt (before reductions) and how much mana it cost on each level with each level of Multicast:
  • Level 0 Multicast: 36/48/60/72 damage, 80 mana
  • Level 1 Multicast: 48/60/72/84 damage, 110 mana
  • Level 2 Multicast: 60/72/84/96 damage, 140 mana
  • Level 3 Multicast: 72/84/96/108 damage, 150 mana

Aghanim's Scepter Upgrade:

Increases amount of multicasts.

Despite being largely incapacitated by his IQ, the Ogre Magi's success in battle is attributed to pure skill.

• This ability got reworked into the current Multicast in the 6.00 gameplay patch.

• Caused Fireblast to be cast 1/2/3 ( 2/3/4) additional times on the same target.

• But it also passively increased its mana cost from 95 to 190/365/525 and cooldown from 8 to 16/32/55.

• Did not grant Lightning Shield multiple casts, but increased its damage and mana cost.

• Caused Bloodlust to be cast on 1/2/3 ( 2/3/4) additional targets within a 600 radius around Ogre Magi.
