Spirit Breaker gains bonus Movement Speed whenever he stuns an enemy. Effect depends on unit type: stunning a hero gives +8% for 2s; other units give +2% for 1s.
Multiple stuns stack with independent durations. Bull Rush duration is paused during Charge of Darkness, but it can still gain new stacks.
Bonus allows Spirit Breaker to go over the max movement speed limit.

Greater Bash

Granted by Aghanim's Scepter.
Barathrum distorts the fabric of space, increasing his own magic resistance by 75%, and redirecting enemy spells targeted at allied heroes within a 900 radius towards him. Does not trigger if the enemy ability is targeted at Spirit Breaker.?Duration: 7s. Cooldown: 20s. Mana Cost: 75
Granted by Aghanim's Scepter. Unit-targeted.
Barathrum gains 75% magic resistance and distorts reality around the selected hero, making any unit-targeted spells cast by enemy heroes on the target to get redirected towards Spirit Breaker. Can be cast on both allied and enemy heroes, but only spells cast by enemies of Spirit Breaker will be redirected. Cast Range: 700.?Io's Tether is the only exception that will ignore this effect.

- MISCRedirected spells are not considered as reflected. If Spirit Breaker is under effects such as Lotus Orb's Echo Shell, redirected spells will be reflected back to the enemy caster
- MISCIf the redirected spell has different interactions for allies and enemies, Spirit Breaker will receive the enemy interaction?Example: Oracle's Fate's Edict will disarm Spirit Breaker even if the ability was redirected from Oracle's ally
