For those who don’t put money in for the compendium, as long as you have a teammate who has the compendium, if you help them succeed in their challenge, you net coins too!
Furthermore, as more people purchase the compendium, it unlocks stretch goals that will give additional items for owners of the compendium. The stretch goals include new cursors, a chance to vote for a new Arcana which is a unique item set that changes the entire character aesthetically, new Huds, treasure, map terrain change and much much more.
It’s a little bit different from last year granted, but it’s a fine change that keeps things interesting, it’s worth taking a look at and if you like it, give it a purchase if you’re into Dota 2! More information can be found here.
