Spectral DaggerQ

ABILITY:Point, Unit Target

AFFECTS:Enemy Hero

DAMAGE TYPE:Magical

DISPELLABLE:Yes

Spectre flings a dagger to draw a Shadow Path, dealing damage and slowing the movement speed of any enemies along the trail. Units hit by the dagger also trail a Shadow Path. While treading the path, Spectre phases through otherwise impassable terrain.

There is a 1 second grace period after leaving the path where no collision is preserved.

Does not trigger spell block or spell reflect.

DAMAGE: 70 / 120 / 170 / 220

Mercurial's dagger eclipses the physical plane in shadow, a state in which mortals cower, but spectres thrive.

Desolate

ABILITY:Passive

DAMAGE TYPE:Pure

PIERCES DEBUFF IMMUNITY:Yes

Damage done to Spectre is reflected on her enemies, leaving her unharmed. The effect lessens with distance.

A daunting task lies before enemies of Mercurial - killing a shadow with blade and magic.
