I took a couple minutes to look into it and I can't find anything about that interaction. I didn't think the towers did a special type of damage.

Well I mostly just confirmed it via http://dota2.gamepedia.com/Bristleback "Bristleback does not work against Towers. "

And the forum threads I found seemed to agree with it. I don't know why it is so though, just got to accept it and move on.

I mean i'd assume it has to do with how it's coded in dota 1

although why that was kept in dota 2 is anybody's guess.

I bet the damage reduction was somehow linked to the quill spray and couldn't be made separate due to Dota 1 logic. Or maybe its just to easy to tower dive at early levels.

who gives a shit if it reduces tower damage anyways you're bristleback you're buying vanguard that basically makes you immune to tower damage.
don't tell me to provide a legend for those charts cause we already got shaella in this thread - eieio | Bulba is my waifu

Those instances when you need to yolo under a tower for the pre-vanguard kill. Also if it doesn't' work out towers, to free quills from tower shots.

Suspected and proving stuff in court are two very different things. Though if you get enough countries mad at you, it is only a matter of time.
