Revivify - T4 Vitality Active Item

[AJ_]

T4 Vitality Active Item

+150 Bonus Health
+10 Spirit Power
+ 3 m/s Sprint Speed

Active - Cooldown 150s
Revive a targeted allied hero that died within 1/4 their current respawn timer.
Heal Amount 30% (Target Hero)
4s Channel Duration
10m Cast Range

This is essentially an item meant to act as a potential replacement for the recently removed Soul Rebirth. At the moment there isn't much in terms of T4 support items and this could be a good alternative. It could additionally be balanced by making it take a component such as Healing Nova, Restorative Locket or Rescue Beam. Apologies if an Item like this has been recommended before I did not see anything like it.

Honestly I like the idea. But how are you going to stop this from making the same mistake as soul rebirth? If anything this is more versatile

That was the main idea with the limited window on cast time, the channel duration so it can be stunned out of or the caster can be killed during it, and the limited range. All of these can be tweaked to balance it further. I agree it could still be very OP, but I wanted to see what people thought about an item like this.

How about if you buy the item, your drop a key, then you could take that key back to your base where you hold "E" for 10s seconds until you respawn.

That is a cool idea but with the time it takes to get the key, get back to base, the additional wait time, and then spawning back at base it feels like it wouldn't be much better than normal respawning but now also forcing a teammate to reset for it as well. But maybe the numbers could be tweaked to make it worthwhile so who knows

Seeing how meta-defining the last item that messed with respawns was, I don't think we will ever see anything like soul rebirth ever again.
