Force of Nature

Terra gains momentum, causing her to dash forward and deal damage to enemies she passes through. Terra may dash through her own Standing Stones to Shatter them. If she does she may dash one more time within the next 3s.

Crushing Earth

Terra raises up two Standing Stone walls on either side of a target location, Slowing enemies in between by 20%. As long as both stones stand, Terra may activate this ability again to slam the stones together, damaging and Stunning enemies in between for 1.5s. These stones can be Shattered into a cone of shrapnel with Force of Nature, damaging enemies in the area.

Monolith

Terra summons a Standing Stone monolith surging with natural energy. The monolith heals nearby allied gods every .5s. Terra can Shatter this stone with Force of Nature to Root enemies in the area for 1.5s and create a damaging area that lasts 5s.

Ultimate: Terra's Blessing

Terra channels her strength into the entire world, buffing all of her allies for 10s.

Quoted:
As long as any Standing Stones are on the battleground Terra becomes Knockup immune and her Basic Attacks will Slow enemies. If Terra Shatters her stones, This Buff will remain active for 3s afterward.


It might as well say "Terra is Knockup immune and her Basic Attacks Slow enemies" since, assuming there is no limit to duration, range, or number of stones, all she has to do is put up a Monolith at the fountain and she has the buff all game.

Neith's Broken Weaves only last for 1 minute, and Ah Muzen Cab can only have 6 Hives at a time, with a set range of 80.

But Terra doesn't have those problems. Or I'm not reading the description right.

Well as far as I can see it there's a 10s duration on the Monolith and 5s on the Crushing Earth, and because of that there'll never be more than 1 of each active at a time.

It doesn't say that in the patch notes.

Also, why is she purple?

They're getting changed, I think both of the CDRs are getting removed from the magic pot and the slow is getting removed from the physical. The 5% mana return on DoTs is getting removed, as well (infinite mana on Anubis, anyone?). It should only trigger once per god hit, now. They also increased the price of pots to 500 gold.
Credit goes to Faythe!

The patch notes don't mention the full details for all spells, but the tooltip on the PTS shows a 10s duration.

Ok, so which one of the developers plays Artemis exclusively? Who could possibly think she needs a buff? If anything, she needs a nerf.
