Luna updates =

Just a quick note to help those, who will be using Luna in dota 2, after being a fan, like myself - in dota 1.

1. Though Maim is no longer an orb effect, it will still not work with Moon Glaive - you can easily get an SNY or Sange, but you will not proc maim.

2. The bounces from Moon Glaive DO NOT lifesteal from HoD - just the first target that is hit.

3. Feedback and Skadi still does not work with Moon Glaive (but it won't stop you from attacking like in dota1)

4. chainlighting from maelstrom or mjo WILL WORK with Moon Glaive
I see that becoming a future core item along with the HoD (you lifesteal normally, unless you proc chain lightning, in which you chain instead of lifesteal)

Anything else I've missed out please mention below. I'll add to the guide.

desolator works too though corruption only works in the first target

Have you tested these in game? - based on previous announcements, will have orb effects, just not all of them - FML if she has orb effects, even only on the first target - IT'S going to be the ****!! (or they'll update, and change it back haha)

Orb effects and attack modifiers work on the main target only. I downvoted due to this 'Guide' being full of blatant lies and a lack of actual testing.

Tested mechanics:

Diffusal Blade, Desolator, Eye of Skadi and Lifesteal all function but only apply to your primary target.

Eye of Skadi fully stacks with Lifesteal, as Luna is ranged.

Mjollnir pseudo-stacks with Lifesteal; procs will not steal life, other hits will. Moon Glaive cannot proc Mjollnir.

In conclusion, Luna's interaction with orbs is now baseline with other ranged heroes, as Moon Glaive cannot proc any orb effects.

Yeah - thanks - I thought that a handful of orbs would work (due to the mechanics) - now they all do except maim.. bullsh!t orb guide, bringing the post down :)
Basically the script limitations from dota1 is why luna didn't have orbeffects!
