Trees
Trees make up the bulk of the map in Heroes of Newerth. They serve to block vision and movement, but can be destroyed with certain abilities.
Mechanics
- Trees cannot be seen nor moved through.
- However, Clearvision will allow units to see through trees and Treewalking allows you to walk through trees.
- Trees can be destroyed with certain abilities, and some of these abilities interact with them or require trees to be targeted.
- All destroyed trees respawn at 5:00 and every 5 minutes afterwards.
