Tips and Tricks
Without waking them up, Bane can strike Nightmared units.
The damage you deal to a target is equaled by the healing you receive through Brain Sap. As a result of the illusion damage multiplier, if you Brain Sap an illusion, you heal a lot.
You can use Nightmare’s initial second of total immunity to shield yourself or an ally from any incoming missiles.
You have the same casting options for Shadow Amulet, Shadow Blade, and Glimmer Cape as all other heroes with channeled Ultimate.
When using the Nightmare End skill, all active Nightmares are extinguished, including any reflected Lotus Nightmares or Rubick Nightmares.
Bane’s Ability
ENFEEBLE
Reduces the enemy’s overall attack damage and cast range while dealing damage every second.
BRAIN SAP
Feeds on an opponent unit’s life energies, healing Bane and inflicting damage.
NIGHTMARE
Sleeps the targeted enemy or ally Hero. When injured, sleeping units are awoken. The Nightmare goes to the attacking unit if the target was directly attacked. With extra attack speed, Bane can freely attack and deal damage to enemies who are having nightmares.
FIEND’S GRIP
CHANNELED – Grabs an opponent unit, rendering it inoperable and doing severe damage over time, while depleting mana based on the unit’s maximum mana every 0.5 seconds.
