Beastmaster’s Ability

WILD AXES

Axes are launched into the air by Beastmaster, who then calls them back home as they slice through trees and opposing units along their route. A single blow from each axe increases the damage that the Beastmaster and his troops deal to future enemies.

CALL OF THE WILD BOAR

A boar is summoned by the beastmaster to assist on the battlefield. The poison assault of the boar decreases movement and attack speeds.

CALL OF THE WILD HAWK

A hawk that Beastmaster summons flies about him and attacks enemies with a base attack frequency of every 4.0 seconds, damaging and rooted them. Attack rate rises as attack speed does for the Hawk. puts heroes first.

INNER BEAST

Unleashes allies’ inner rage, passively accelerating their attack speed.

DRUMS OF SLOM

When Beastmaster or a nearby unit he controls attacks, the drum banger deals damage to the surrounding units while also healing Beastmaster and the units he controls for a portion of the damage. After 20.0 attacks, each attack reduces the time between drum hits to a minimum of 0.4 seconds. The intervals progressively get longer if no attacks are launched.

A Primal Roar attack counts as 10/15/20 attacks depending on the level of the attack.
