Second Ability

Unstable Concoction [Keybind: W]
AbilityAffectsDamage
Target Unit Enemy Heroes Physical
Alchemist brews up an unstable concoction that he can throw at an enemy hero, to stun and deal damage. The longer the concoction brews, the more damage it deals and the longer the target is stunned. After 5 seconds, the brew reaches its maximum damage and stun time. However, after 5.5 seconds, the concoction will explode on Alchemist himself if not thrown. Unstable Concoction always affects a 175 area around where it explodes, including when it explodes on Alchemist.
  • Range: 775
  • Maximum Stun Duration: 1.75/2.5/3.25/4
  • Maximum Damage: 150/220/290/360
  • Cooldown: 16 seconds
  • Mana Cost: 120
Lore: A silver lining to the failure of turning a mountain into gold, this volatile solution has destructive potential.
  • Is partially blocked by Spell Immunity - if activated after throw, only the stun is blocked. Otherwise full block.
  • Is blocked by Linken's SPhere if the primary target is the holder.
  • While brewing the concoction, Alchemist can still move around and take action.
  • A timer above Alchemist's head will indicate the remaining brew time.
  • Maximum effects will be achieved after 5 seconds brewing time.
  • It will blow up on Alchemist if channeled for more than 7 seconds without throwing, checking at 0.5 second intervals (allows up to 7.5 seconds brew time).
  • Unstable Concoction cannot be disjointed.
  • The concoction moves at 900 speed, and provides 400/400 sight range.
  • Stun type is magical. It will not, therefore, take effect on Alchemist under the effect of Spell immunity.
  • It is possible to deny yourself.
