Would the damage from Armlet heal him with ult on? That would be really, really amazing.

Nope.

Armlet is HP removal. HP removal isn't damage, so you still lose the HP from armlet ever when in Borrowed Time.

Source : I just double checked it in lobby.

Even then, Armlet of Mordiggian + Mask of Madness is essentially the only way of playing semicarry Abaddon.

Just don't play him as a safe lane carry, ever. Solo offlane or rich support is fine for this kind of build.

Yeah it would be! I don't think hp removal triggers it though.

You need armlet before basher. Abaddon needs armor and HP from armlet. Besides it's extremely cost-efficient so it's the best choice on a hero who cannot farm effectively.

HP removal still exists. it's just way more restricted than before and only limits to 'HP costs" of spells and items.

Armlet+MoM+Basher is too greedy, it's whole 8k gold and even if I would own such an amount so early I would 100% get BKB+either Basher or MoM rather tham some right-click which can be stopped with 2 stuns.

Yes it still exists but it's no longer considered as a damage type.

Yes Armlet of Mordiggian can heal Abaddon when under the effects of Borrowed Time due to bug with HP removal items and spells. I always play Abaddon as a carry even on high tier brackets and I've got a 65.15% with him. It's really rare if I play him as a Initiator to be tanky going full HP and Armor or as a support.
