Dota 2 patch 7.33c item changes

Dota 2 patch 7.33c introduced multiple item changes that are very interesting and could change many players’ builds.

Some of them will likely buff certain heroes while others will nerf playstyles that have become extremely popular. You can no longer become unkillable with a minimum gold investment. You need to pay more and the rewards will not be as great as before.

Standard item changes

The Bracer got buffed. Its damage is now 3/6 instead of 2/4.

Eternal Shroud now gives +14 strength instead of +12 and works for physical spells as well.

The cost of the Faerie Fire is now 65 instead of 70.

Pavise’s Protect now blocks physical damage from spells.

The HP regen offered by items like Pipe of Insight has been nerfed significantly. For this item, it went from 8.5 to 6. The magic resistance also dropped from 25% to 20%, and the mana cost for the active was increased by 50.

Ring of Health gives only 4.75 HP regen now. This also applies to Vanguard. The damage block of this item is now 56/28 instead of 64/32.

Neutral item changes

Most of the items that got modified by Dota 2 patch 7.33c are neutral ones.

The movement bonus of Stormcrafter is now 35 instead of 30.

Spell Prism now gives just +6 all attributes instead of +8.

The magic resistance of Martyr’s plate is now 25% instead of 20%.

The Havoc Damage strength multiplier is now 1.5x instead of 1x.

Ascetic’s Cap now gives +20 HP regen instead of +15. And the duration of its Endurance is 5s instead of 4s.

Vindicator’s Axe now gives +35 attack speed instead of +30.

Enchanted Quiver offers +75 attack range bonus instead of +50. This may cause some people to use the item a bit more often, even though it was already used on ranged right-clickers quite a lot.

The armor bonus provided by Defiant Shell is now 7 instead of 5.

Vampire Fangs now give +10% lifesteal instead of just +6%. When combined with other passive abilities, the effect can be very potent.
