== Dismissing the carpet == | == Dismissing the carpet == | ||
Casting an ability, using an item, and attacking with a weapon are considered "actions" and immediately dismiss the carpet. Most abilities that deal [[damage]] after a hero casts Magic Carpet also count as an "action". For example, an enemy hero walking over a {{AbilityIcon|Grasping Hands}} line dismisses a flying {{HeroIcon|Graves}}' carpet. | |||
As a rule of thumb: A hero dealing single-instance damage will dismiss their carpet and most effects that deal Damage over Time will not. This rule is similar to damage that [[Ziplines#Getting Knocked Off|knocks heroes off of Ziplines]] but without damage from player-created [[Units]]. | |||

== Notes == | |||
* Abilities using Confirm Cast or Quick Cast can be "prepared" while on the carpet, since they aren't cast until the Fire button is pressed or the ability button is released respectively. | |||
** {{HeroIcon|Vindicta}}'s {{AbilityIcon|Assassinate}} does not cast until the Fire button is pressed, allowing her to scope in and not dismiss the carpet. Magic Carpet is affected by the ability's [[Move Speed]] limit, but also overrides the scoped camera, causing Assassinate to fire slightly left of the on-screen crosshair. | |||
