Tankbuster: Difference between revisions

Notes: Did sandbox testing of improved burst's interaction with spirit shields, and was unable to trigger improved burst if any spirit shield remained, or if the ability didn't deal at least 200 damage AFTER spirit shield depletion.
Notes: oops

[[Improved Burst]] is a Tier 3 [[Spirit]] [[Item]] which grants [[Spirit Shield|Spirit Shield Health]] and [[Weapon Damage]] to the purchasing hero.
It has a passive which causes additional [[Spirit Damage]] to enemies who receive ability a single instance of damage above a certain threshold from the purchasing hero.
It can be purchased from the [[Shop]] for {{Souls|3,500}}.
== Notes ==
== Notes ==
* In order to trigger the additional damage, the triggering spirit damage must exceed the threshold after damage reduction calculations, including spirit armor and damage reductions (e.g. from Inhibitor).
* Tankbuster is a [[Charge-Up]] item, thus not affected by [[Cooldown Reduction]].
* Interaction with spirit shields: Damage to spirit shield does not count toward triggering the additional damage, only health damage. This means that spirit shield will prevent the additional damage from triggering until it is depleted.
* Tankbuster only goes on cooldown when it affects enemy heroes. It will not go on cooldown when you hit an [[NPC]].
 
* While the tooltip only specifies "Abilities", only Spirit Damage will activate Tankbuster. Abilities dealing [[Weapon Damage|Weapon]], [[Melee Damage|Melee]] or [[Pure Damage]] will not activate Tankbuster (unless they have a Spirit component).
== Recommended heroes ==
* Tankbuster has inconsistent interactions with different sources of damage resist and amplification.
* {{HeroIcon|Lady Geist}}
** Spirit Resist Reduction on target helps trigger Tankbuster. For example, an ability that would otherwise deal 160 damage, when striking a target affected with {{ItemIcon|Mystic Vulnerability}} will trigger Tankbuster.
* {{HeroIcon|Bebop}}
** Spirit Resist on target does not prevent Tankbuster from triggering. For example, an ability that deals 170 damage, when striking a target with {{ItemIcon|Spirit Resilience}} will still trigger Tankbuster.
* {{HeroIcon|Grey Talon}}
** Most other sources seem to not affect the trigger, but more testing is required to confirm that.
* {{HeroIcon|Lash}}
* The triggering of the additional damage is entirely unaffected by the target's barriers (or lack thereof).
* The additional damage, and the ability which triggered the additional damage, are applied to the target as separate instances of damage. The additional damage from Tankbuster is dealt after the original spell damage.
