Artificing appears to be a type of craftsmanship in the lore of Dota 2. It involves the construction of magical goods and what not.[1] Since artificing is a magical skill, its use may overlap with other types of sorcery, such as necromancy.[2]

The construction of a ward is a rite of passage for those who aspire to be an artificer.[1]

Notable Practitioners

[edit]

Crystal Maiden is an artificer. She learned early that she had the potential to become a skilled artificer and completed an artificer's rite of passage by creating a ward.[1]

Aghanim is a master artificer, having created his legendary titular scepter by travelling through dimensions.[3] His son Rubick laments that he did not inherit his father's great skill in construction,[4] but he has a semblance of that skill with his talent in arcane assembly.[5]
