Gem of Truesight

@66 no , if you want sure counter to invis heros get wards/dust

it should be clicked and have a cooldown. that would be more fair right?

i don't think anybody has addressed number 49:
that's not true, illusions are still hidden. however, for phantom lancer, you will be able to see him when he dopplewalks, and you will know that the invisible one is the real one.

I hate when people buy this shit! It makes game inbalanced! Riki can't backstabb and as long as the carrier is strong - well so long riki!

"cuz there woould be no piont being invisble if this is a cheap item that never drops!"

It could be a lot more expensive though.

Bobbob247 is right. Gem is not a luxury. It's actually a responsibility in the game. Whenever there's a riki or a hero that can windwalk like Clinks, someone has to buy this, and whoever holds it must have an escape skill or it should be a tank. Plus, it takes up an extra item slot so it's really far from a LUXURY.

I really hate carrying this shit!

Gem isn't luxury so much as heavier invisibility counter. At some point in the game, some hero might get really fed and hard to kill, so he can use a gem safely.

the super luxury items: gem and dr, play wif aegis to be safe

thats the point of having this thing.. it would be imbalanced if it doesntdrop! .. cuz there woould be no piont being invisble if this is a cheap item that never drops!

buy gem only when u are capable of NOT dying -,-

this is not cheating.. know why?
you hold the gem, it costs 750 just to see your enemy, you should have bought some requirement for buying, and you just wasted a slot.. JUST TO SEE AN INVISIBLE HERO.. dont you get it? and the drawback is dying means losing 750 gold... see?

does this item work on illusions??

if so then pl and naga will pwn riki, bh etc

TOO EXPENSIVE BECAUSE IT DROPS. 250 - 400 GOLD IS A DECENT AMOUNT.

Riki always kills gem carrier first
Smoke+blink+manta=ur dead
Rather use dust

sentry wards are a pain to place and can be destroyed and don't work around the map.
gem is prob one of the most situationally useful items in the game, especially vs. a riki. i wouldn't call it cheating, i'd actually call riki's ulti cheating if anything. forcing someone to get a gem cuts from farming and takes up an extra slot, and you move around the map pretty much unbothered...op ulti if i ever saw one

i buy 6 of these and guess what i pawned kindergarten ha ha ha ha ha ah aha ha ah ha

I would pick sentry wards. It's cheaper.

U will lose one slot hahahahahahha

not only can this make invi heroes appear but it will also show the real hero which uses imitations just like phantom lancer

extremelyyyyyyyyyyyyyy shittttttttttty itemmmmmmmmmmmmm
