New Dota 2 patch 7.04 changes several hero talents, tweaks items
The newest patches to hit Dota 2 make several tweaks to the game’s items, hero talents, and adds players cards for the Winter Battle Pass 2017. These updates rolled out in two parts today.
As detailed by community member and patch analyst Sir Belvedere on Reddit, the update makes changes to several heroes’ talents and tweaks the cost as well as effects of some of the in-game items. Interestingly, the Slippers of Agility item is no longer purchasable in the Side Shop.
The update has hit pretty quickly following the last patch. Just last week Valve released Patch 7.03, which added the Juggernaut Arcana, re-tooled some Talents, and gave Jakiro a facelift.
The version 7.04 hero changes are listed as follows (full credit to Sir Belvedere).
