what if you buy, use Zeus ulti, refresh, use again, sell for max price, buy again, refresh ulti, sell again rinse repeat etc for much teamwipe?

i'd assume that wether you sell it or not, the global cooldown would still be in effect thats tied to your character, so buying it back would not refresh the cooldown. although feel free to go and try it and report back. For science :)

Using an item removes the ability to sell it back for full price, and cooldowns are tied to the item itself.

I tried it myself a minute ago. The second Refresher Orb gets its cooldown going after using the first Refresher Orb. Selling a used Refresher Orb and buying a new one does not ignore the sold Refresher Orb's cooldown timer.

So you can't use both at once?

mind = blown

What I meant was that if you activate 1, the other won't be activated when you click it, or does it also show as activated?

i think duplicate items share a cooldown to be quite honest

you can not - dont comment if u dont even know it ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥, becaus you don't even know what ur talking about

Another good tactic is to get 2 refreshers on spectre with diffusal blade! One game I used 3 Haunts in a row which made 3 illusions attack each target for 100 mana burn a hit, it was very effective!

I guess it will be in cool down ...just like your abilities are in cool down when you re-spawn using Aegis of immortality.

1) please learn the game, private profile+ lack of intelligence = nuff said
2) REFRESHER does not stack with another REFRESHER, They both go on cooldown once used -.-
3) YEA SPECTRE(hard carry) TOTALLY NEEDS REFRESHERS. for which ability? Desolate? oh wait that is passive.. Dispersion? OH wait that is passive too. Haunt? Ye he needs this when he has manta style.. Spectral dagger? Ye he sure needs to cast this twice to slow the opponent or walk into trees and then TP away.. Good thing he does not have Diffusal blade to slow enemies right?..
4) Please just get off the forums, there is already enough stupid people on the forums.

I am enjoying the passion and alacrity in which the 'smart' people are taking the 'dumb' bait...grom nom nom!

In another game, I went Zues with 2 refreshers. I stayed at the fountain and with Scepter I was able to unleash 3 deadly ultimates in a row! Needless to say the other team had a 'shocking' game.

First you can not, I just tried ingame and second I think using DPs ult twice will remove the first one. Not sure about that though maybe someone can confirm?^^

Edit: Even if you use refresher 1, sell it and buy a 2nd one it is still on cd.
@HappyDays: Is your only social interaction talking trash or what are you doing here? Because it seems pretty pathetic.
