Dota Auto Chess: Item stats, combinations, and upgrades

Dota Auto Chess: Item stats, combinations, and upgrades

This list shows all the Dota Auto Chess item combinations available in the game. Each item is indicated with name, recipe, stats, and special effects.

Auto Chess utilizes the same item assets available in Dota 2, so the icons and the names are mostly the same.

Also the basic components required to build a certain item are very similar. The main difference is that in Dota 2 some of them demand an additional gold cost via a “blank recipe”. I wonder if they will be added in the future for balancing purposes.

The stats and passive/active abilities follow the same guidelines, but they have been adapted to fit the new genre. For example, all the active item abilities in Auto Chess are automatically cast by the chess pieces, often at the start of the battle or when a certain event occurs (such as casting the hero’s own ability).

In Auto Chess, you can’t buy items with gold from an in-game shop, but they are dropped randomly by killing creeps, AI-controlled monsters that spawn during the first three rounds of the game, and afterwards every five rounds starting from the tenth one.

The list below indicates the exact items you need to combine for an upgraded one, and all the stats and effects of the new item. I suggest visiting this page via desktop due to the layout used.
