[edit] Other skills

• Any Physical-type Skills go through Magic Immunity
• Normal Attacks are considered physical, thus the Attack Modifier's still work (if they deal Magical Damage it will still be nullified by Magic Immunity but the effect will still attach itself)
  • example: Slither's Toxicity will apply it's effect, but will only stop target from regenerating health. While his Toxin Wards will still slow any Magic Immune targets they attack.
    • Toxicity would of course start dealing damage right away when the magic immunity wears off.

Skills that go through Magic Immunity

Heroes who have only Physical Skills (and are thus unaffected by targets having Magic Immunity)

Pandamonium

Legionnaire

Rampage

Kraken only has one magical skill; Tsunami Charge

AoE silence caused by manual destruction of an eye go through Magic Immunity

Pestilence's Impale

will deal damage to Magic Immune targets, but will not stun them.

Tundra's Piercing Shards

Half of the damage is Physical, the other Magical.

[edit] Items

• Normal Attacks are considered physical, thus they will trigger any effects that items apply to them even when hitting Magic Immune targets. (some exceptions exist)

Items whose effects do not affect/trigger through Magic Immunity

The effect does not trigger

Nullfire Blade

Thunderclaw

Charged Hammer

Harkon's Blade

This means it will not transform the damage to magical when hitting a Magic Immune target

[edit] Notes

• Some skills will affect Magic Immune targets, but one cannot cast them onto already Magic Immune targets
  • These are often (always) Uncleansable, for example Blood Hunter's Hemorrhage.
    • All (almost) Magic Immunity sources also cleanse upon cast.
• Most healing skills cannot do damage or heal Magic Immune targets
  • This goes as far as preventing non-magical damage and AoE-heals of non-magical type.
