Why do you designed this item? For jungling porpose?

[[IaF]Skyve]

How would it be useful for jungling?

It's more as an early game item with decent impact in teamfights, since 20 damage should be ~25% of the targets damage by the time you get it.
Primarily it's supposed to be a more defensive support item that can be used from the backlines to weaken significant enemy heroes.

[MaTz0r]

Well, you are Wildsoul, you cast it on the neutral. The neutral will only attack booboo, so it will have the reduced damage, so your bear will survive more! :P

It is a item that you can even take a huge advantage, when you are ranged and the enemy is melee, since its attacking you, not damaging you. And with this, I think you are removing one of the benefits of being melee( in almost 90% of the cases you have a good base damage while you are melee)

[[IaF]Skyve]

It would work the same way vs a ranged hero too though. And you won't get it too early for the last hitting part to have too huge of an impact I'd imagine.

Edit: I do not really like the item the way it is atm though. I think it could use some tweaking.

[MaTz0r]

Yeah, I was going to ask you about the items... it feels awkawrd xd

[[IaF]Skyve]

Currently thinking of making it a disarm that only works for a single target, lasts longer on ranged heroes, and still allows for attacking the caster.

The item could be interesting for some cases, but imagine 2 or 3 supports getting this item, and all targeting on person, potentially dropping their attack damage by 40-60, which would be insane for the first 30 minutes of the game. I just feel like it could be a little more offensive and a little less situational, just tweak the concept a little.
