The game “Dota 2” is distinguished by the fact that the weather changes in it - there can be a night with moonlight above the arena, rain and even snow. This happens arbitrarily, that is, ordinary players can not affect it. But there are those that can control the weather - with the help of special items that can be equipped in a weather slot. But where to find such items so that in the game "Dota 2" weather effects are under your control?
Items
In "Dota 2" weather effects - these are the very objects with which you can control the weather. They look like glass balls, inside of which is depicted the very weather that will dominate the arena if you activate this item. To do this, you need to put the weather effect in a special weather slot for your character’s inventory - and the weather will immediately change to the one you selected. However, note that the weather changes only for the player who uses the item - the rest of the players see the standard weather. Thus, in the game "Dota 2" weather effects are relevant only for those who use them - which is why they relate to cosmetic objects.
Effect Types
However, what kind of weather effects can be in Dota 2? There are only three of them, but this is enough for you to diversify the gameplay or use the weather effect that you like best on an ongoing basis. So, with the help of these items you can make it snow, you can also cause rainy weather or plunge the arena into the night with bright moonlight. All these effects look very impressive, but you need to understand that they also consume the resources of your computer, so if you play at the minimum settings, then you better not use any weather effect "Dota 2" - the price for this may be too high.
How to get the?
If you are thinking about acquiring one of the weather effects for yourself, then you may be disappointed, as this is a limited item - it cannot be simply purchased in the game or from other gamers. In fact, he was on the list of bonuses for Compendium buyers - a book that was distributed as part of The International 2014. Thus, these effect balls went only to those who bought a book on Dota in 2014. Now you can only exchange such balls for some other rare item from other gamers, since the sale of weather effects is prohibited both directly and through the Steam trading platform. That is, exchange is the only way to get the weather effect of “Dota 2”, the name does not play any role, since the effects were distributed in three to each buyer of the book. Accordingly, you need to prepare something really valuable in order to get a ball of weather effects - otherwise you can forget about the ability to change the weather and will always play only in those conditions that the game itself will offer you. This, of course, is not the end of the world, but still the ability to change the weather is quite interesting and enjoyable.
