* Fixed bugs with Aegis on Meepo
* Fixed Echo Slam damage doing less than advertised (7 less)
* Fixed a typo in level 3 Spirit Bear HP
* Changed all Brilliance Aura values from percentages to numbers since it isn't really a percentage (it always worked like this, just the tooltips were misleading)
* Fixed Treant and Druid sound set (79352)
* Fixed a bug with Shadowraze killing wards
* Fixed some minor control issues with Timewalk
Thanks to all the beta testers

Yes, www.getdota.com is the way to go! And the removal of Aegis is a good thing! Take that, Dazzle!
And BTW: "just another warcraft map" is the fake one... Its the default name given to maps by the WC3 world editor...

Oops: What is the point of increasing helm of iron will regen when everyone uses it to make helm of the dominator? Its usually bought after mask of death...

1] Brilliance Aura stacks yay!
2] Dang Assault Cuirass. Sven with this + Vladmir's Offering + Toughness aura = Creeps with 52% armor reduction. Also, stacks with Nevermore's Aura. Dang. Good thing it's expensive.

I love all the changes to the game. I'd have to comment on some of them though...
* Butcher -> Hook now properly interrupts channeling
Hmmm. This is interesting. You'd better watch out where you channel then.
* Priestess of the Moon -> Slightly reduced collision area on Elune's Arrow
Yay! Now the creeps won't always get in my way!
* Crystal Maiden -> Fixed Brilliance Aura to properly stack with Ring of Basilius
I'll spam her skills now. That's a good sign.
* Divine Rapier -> Now it can be manually dropped
Hmmm. At least that saves me the trouble. Though i do think it still drops on death...
* Vladmir's Offering -> Bonus damage is an aura now(only on melee heroes, not creeps)
Well, it can't be helped, but it's still good.
* Mekansm -> Mekansm heal stack restriction can no longer be overridden by buckler
Awww. That's too bad, I used to use this one...
* Ring of Basilius -> Ring of Basilius can be clicked to switch it back and forth between a version that has armor affecting creeps and one that doesn't
Hmmm. Interesting...
* Added -om(onlymid) due to popular demand to disable creepspawn and tower vulnerability everywhere but middle
At last! i'll use this on 1on1 battles.
* Added a new secret shop containing limited items (only stout and helm of iron will for now) to the top left and bottom right areas
Great! New secret shops! More places for Techies to plant bombs... O_O

This is probably the best update to DotA. New items, not just bug fixes, and lots of changes to heroes and other things.
First let me comment on the added visual effects. They're great, IMO. Omnislash now really looks like Cloud's Omnislash, with the red "sword-light" following his attacks. Brain Sap visual is good, so now you have an idea what actually hit you that caused your HP to drop. Haven't checked Static Field's new visual yet.
The buff on heroes' skills. Toughness Aura just gets an additional point at level 3 and 4, but not much of a leap compared to Crystal Maiden's Brilliance Aura buff. Now I may consider getting the skill after all.
Satanic's new Unholy Rage active spell is great, not really as helpful as Death Pact, but it's like having a mini-Rage (N'aix) giving additional bonus damage and lifesteal percentage.
The location of the new Secret Shops are very good. Very well-hidden! Screenies below.
Yep, Assault Cuirass is one sick item. And priced just right!
Here are some screen, just for demonstration:
1] Here's the new tooltip for Aegis of the Immortal. Yes it drops with only one charge. And when the charge is used up, Aegis also disappears from your inventory.
2] Here's Assault Cuirass in action. Note the -5 armor reduction and the range of the aura.
3] Here's the location of the top-left new Secret Shop. Still the same vendor though. It may change in future versions. Note also the crazy AoE of Assault Cuirass' aura! It's like a full screen!
4] Here's the location of the bottom-right new Secret Shop. It sells the same items as the other new shop. And here you can see Sven being the godfather of aura icons. Hehehe. The aura of Assault Cuirass looks a lot like the aura from Ares' Soul.
Overall, it's a great new map!
Good work, IceFrog!

I'm willing to bet that Assault Cuirass will be nerfed.
