[FIXEDDefiler loses HP when Plagued Hero uses Healing Potion

[Waki_Miko]

I've noticed that when an enemy hero under the Devouring Plague effect uses a Potion of Greater Healing, the Defiler loses about as much HP as a result.
I'm not certain if this applies to other potions (i.e. Swashbuckler's Elixir etc.) or Instant Healing spells, or whether MP is also affected by Potion of Greater Mana consumption while under the Plague.

I personally think that this should stay in the game. This sounds like a good enough counter to plague, considering how much people complain about it's nagging effects on their heroes.

lol, the next time I see a Defiler throwing plague around I'm going to buy potions for everyone to take at the same moment just to see if we can heal him to death.

Omg, that was so funny I almost cried. Heal him to death, lol, irony at its finest.

Defiler is really powerful. But I had no idea he took dmg from enemies healing. Is it just from bought heals? Or will the poor fool suddenly take a 2k dmg nuke from Scarab popping Life Wave? Now that I would like to see.

Its almost like a Shared Pain gone wrong, strange. In any event, I wouldn't worry about it too much, Defiler is close to impossible to kill teamed with a healer or a added Health Orb.

Did anyone ever try this and see if it works?

No apparent reason it should be happening.....unless...hrm..it might be possible, but only if ai's are using the potions. They can cast them in the middle of a damage event to avoid death (cheap, i know, but its blizzard's doing), which is why you can sometimes see double negative numbers fly out of heroes. I've put in a fix that should stop that possibility.

You could give players the same with Bottled Fairies from Zelda. To be honest, I wouldn't mind the jar system implemented.
