Vol`Jin - The Witch Doctor

Range: 600 | Move Speed: 305

Paralyzing Cask (C)
Vol'jin launches a cask of paralyzing powder that bounces between foes,
stunning those affected for a short period of time (1 sec on Hero, 5 on creeps).
Deals damage per bounce to non-hero units. First impact lasts 1.5 seconds. 
Level 1 - 2 bounces. 75 damage. 
Level 2 - 4 bounces. 100 damage. 
Level 3 - 6 bounces. 125 damage. 
Level 4 - 8 bounces. 150 damage. 
• Damage type: magical 
• Targets can be hit multiple times, as long as another unit is struck in between
the bounces.

• Area of Effect: 600 
Mana Cost: 110/120/130/140
Cooldown: 20/18/16/14 
Comment: This is the first skill that Vol'Jin is quite famous for, Its good in a way
that you can farm quite fast with this beacause of its 5 sec disable on single
creep allowing you and your creep to do the job. Also, if a hero is left with one
creep on his side, the casks will bounce only on those two units, at lvl 4 its a 4
sec disable for a hero on a creep+hero cask attack.

Voodoo Restoration (V)
Vol'jin focuses his voodoo magic to heal nearby allied units. 
Level 1 - Restores 16 hp/sec. 
Level 2 - Restores 24 hp/sec.

Mana Cost: 25 initial + 5 per sec/50 initial + 5 per sec/75 initial + 10 per sec/100
initial + 10 per sec
Cooldown: 0 
Comment: Why not getting this skill before stats? When in early game, Vol'Jin
has low mana pool. Activating this skill also requires mana consumption + 10
mana/sec drain on you until you deactivate it. I require bringing some Flasks Of
Sapphire water or Ring Of Regeneration rather than getting this skill in the early
game.

Maledict (E)
Targets an area with an ancient voodoo curse. Cursed heroes will not only
take damage over time, but they will be dealt bonus damage every 4 seconds
based on how much hp they lost since the beginning of the curse. Lasts 12
seconds 
Level 1 - Enemies lose 5 hp/sec, 10 bonus damage for every 100 hp lost during
curse. 
Level 2 - Enemies lose 10 hp/sec, 20 bonus damage for every 100 hp lost during
curse.
Level 3 - Enemies lose 15 hp/sec, 30 bonus damage for every 100 hp lost during
curse. 
Level 4 - Enemies lose 20 hp/sec, 40 bonus damage for every 100 hp lost during
curse. 
• Damage type: magical 
• Damage is based on the difference between the HP values currently and when
Maledict was cast. 
• Casting range: 400 
• Area of Effect: 165
Mana Cost: 120
Cooldown: 35 
Comment: This skill makes Vol'Jin deadly when executed perfectly.. And its an
AoE skill. For some, this skill is hard to understand.. Its quite simple.. After you
cast Maledict on a certain hero, the more he/she takes damage from
attacks/spells the larger the bonus damage it will receive from Maledict.

Death Ward (D)
Summons a deadly ward to attack enemy heroes. 
Level 1 - 60 Chaos Damage, 90 Chaos Damage with Aghanim's Scepter.
Level 2 - 90 Chaos Damage, 120 Chaos Damage with Aghanim's Scepter, bounces
once.

Scepter, hits 3 targets at once. 
• The Death Ward is invulnerable, and can only be destroyed if its duration
expires or if Vol'Jin is interrupted. 
• The Death Ward can be controlled and made to attack a specific target. 
• The Death Ward have a 700 attack range and attacks every 0.3 seconds. 
• Casting range: 300/350/400
Mana Cost: 200
Cooldown: 90 
Comment: Ooohh.. Its simply one of the best ulti's that i've ever seen in DotA..
The wards attack the nearest hero when you cast it, but take note.. Eventhough
the ward is invulnerable.. Its a channelling spell meaning, Stun/Silence/Cyclone
and other disables can stop the ward. Also take a look at its description
( CHAOS DAMAGE ) meaning, the armor is disregarded.. Its a constant
120 damage + bounces at lvl 3 ( w/ scepter 150 chaos damage, bounces twice )
means disaster to low hp heroes.

At the start of the game, this item bes suits you because of its 65% Brilliance
Aura so you could somewhat spam several Paralyzing Casks to start the farming

several of these, they can come very handy.
