Trivia

  • In the transition from DotA to Dota 2, the item`s name was changed from Nathrezim Buckler to simply Buckler.
    • This is because of the Nathrezim being a race of demons called Dread Lords in Warcraft lore.

Notes

  • Multiple Bucklers will not stack the armor bonus, it will only refresh the armor bonus duration.
  • Can be purged.
