http://dev.dota2.com/showthread.php?t=70816 Basically, Haunt illusions are supposed to benefit from Spectre's item MS (using a base MS of 400 rather than her MS), be stun-immune, and totally ignore all terrain (path through anything as if they were always on Spec Dagger), and instead they do none of these (only have flat base 400 MS, not stun immune, don't path through terrain). | ||

My beloved Spectre ;;;;;;; Hope this gets fixed asap, huge handicap to the hero in other news, in case you don't read Sing's stream thread he just confirmed he has a teamhouse (not the GD studio however) | ||

Getting to the eventually part is the killer. Doubt this will change anything. She'll prob still be trash tier | ||

The question is more a matter of how long it will take to get fixed. They're really backlogged in terms of parity fixes and this one isn't even that game breaking. More so when you consider that spectre isn't a top pick. | ||

your illusions get a lot more autoattacks in, aoe stuns don't make your ult mostly useless, it makes it much easier to track where people are (especially blinkers or invisible heroes), plus you can actually wait a couple seconds before realitying in | ||

Look at Drow. A hero's abilities can be totally lopsided and the hero can be strong based on that lopsided strength.

It's currently #1 on the list of Moderate-level bugs on the Known Bugs list (anything under Severe has to be literally game-breaking). This isn't dev compiled so its not totally legit, but typically bugs high on the list tend to be fixed quickly when such fixes are easy to implement (this one in particular doesn't seem that complicated). | ||
