Water Grimoire
Overview
Water Grimoire is a Mystic item that provides a large Mana Pool, strong Mana Regeneration, and Cooldown Reduction. Unlike Fire Grimoire, which focuses entirely on increasing Spell Power, Water Grimoire is designed for heroes that rely on casting abilities frequently throughout a match. At maximum level, Water Grimoire also reduces ability cooldowns, making it one of the best items for heroes that depend heavily on their abilities.

Stats
Why Use Water Grimoire?
Water Grimoire is designed for heroes that need large amounts of mana. The item provides three valuable benefits: increased maximum mana, increased mana regeneration, and Cooldown Reduction. Together, these bonuses allow heroes to cast abilities more often and remain effective during long fights. Water Grimoire also works exceptionally well with Mana Shield. Since Mana Shield converts part of incoming damage into mana loss, increasing your mana pool effectively increases your survivability — the larger your mana reserve, the more damage Mana Shield can absorb before your health becomes vulnerable. Because Water Grimoire provides no health or defensive stats, fully upgrading it early can sometimes be risky. Many players purchase a few levels first and finish upgrading it later after acquiring additional survivability.
