Adds 5 bonus fire damage to the attack of a Hero when carried. The Hero's attacks also become ranged when attacking air and do splash damage to nearby enemy units in a radius of 14.
The damage bonus is of the Spell damage type, so it will do 30% less damage to heroes.

Notes[]

In an earlier version of Warcraft III: Reign of Chaos, it gave you 12 bonus fire damage.
