The long-running MOBA experienced a variety of changes and new additions with the New Frontiers update, which rocked the Dota 2 community in late April, including Lotus Pools. They are a brand-new addition to the side lanes that, despite having a beautiful appearance, have a valuable function that can significantly affect the learning process.

You may be wondering why they were added, where to find them, how to use them, and what makes them so great if you’re one of the many new or returning players perplexed by this new feature added in the 7.33 patch. If you need more information about How to use Lotus Pools in Dota 2 and what they are, then read carefully and don’t forget to share with your friends.

How to use Lotus Pools in Dota 2 and what they are:

To make up for the new restrictions on regeneration items—Clarities, Enchanted Mangoes, Healing Salves, and Tangos—Lotus Pools were included in the New Frontiers update. The current maximum stock for these items is four, and the restock time is 120 seconds. Depending on which side you are on, you can find these unbreakable pools on the outer edge of each side lane, either just below or above the river. For either Radiant or Dire, the pool in the safe lane gives that team vision.

Each edge of the map has a Lotus Pool, and both sides (Radiant and Dire) can see both them. They are quite substantial non-destructible structures that are located close to the safe lane-offline meeting point. Periodically, fruits will be produced by the Lotus Pools (that look like Lotuses). These fruits are consumables that provide mana and hp, which are useful sustains during the laning phase. Combining these fruits will result in stronger products.

Each Lotus Pool spawns a Healing Lotus every three minutes. When consumed, the Healing Lotus provides 125 HP and 125 Mana. You can save money by collecting the lotuses because you won’t need to buy your own supplies like healing salve and mangoes.

A Healing Lotus that spawns in the Lotus Pools every three minutes can be obtained by right-clicking the building and channeling a loot animation for two seconds. If a Lotus Pool contains more than one, the channel time will gather them all. Consuming a Healing Lotus will result in 125 Health and 125 Mana for the user. There is only a 2-second channeling window available to gather every Lotus in the pool, though. So, if your adversaries want to challenge the Lotuses, they can do so while you are channeling.

Additionally, stacking three of them will produce a Greater Healing Lotus, which restores 900 Health and 900 Mana, and three of those will produce a Great Healing Lotus, which restores 400 Health and 400 Mana. This means they scale into the late game. Three Greater Healing Lotuses can also combine to form a Block of Cheese as if that weren’t enough. Roshan, eat your heart out.
