Gazlowe (rework concept)

Level 1 Talents

Clockwerk Steam Fists (moved to level 1): Increase the duration of active Rock-It Turrets by 2 seconds every time you basic attack something.

Extra TNT: Increases Xplodium Charge damage by 10% per target hit, up to 100%.

Break it Down: Scrap causes abilities to cooldown 4 times as fast for 3 seconds.

Regeneration Master: Quest: Gather a regeneration globe to increase your health regeneration by 1, up to 30. Reward: After gathering 30 regeneration globes, increase your health pool by 500.

Removed Scrap-O-Matic Smelter and made it baseline. Often times, Gazlowe ran into mana issues very quickly, losing sustain in lane and therefore losing the lane.

Also, moved Clockwerk Steam Fists to level 1 for a stronger turret build.

Level 4 Talents

Engine Gunk (moved to level 4): Turret attacks slow enemies by 25% for 2 seconds.

ARK Reaktor: Reduces Xplodium Charge's cooldown by 2 seconds. If Xplodium Charge hits an enemy hero, reduce Xplodium Charge's cooldown by an additional 6 seconds.

Reduce, Reuse, Recycle: Enemy minions that die near you have a 25% chance to drop scrap. Scrap also heals you by 5% of your health.

Mercenary Goblin:

Level 7 Talents

Rock-It! Turret XL: Rock-It Turrets attack 2 additional targets for 50% damage.

Hyperfocus Coils: Remove charge time on Deth Lazor.

Shocking Explosion: Slows targets hit by Xplodium Charge by 90% for an additional 0.50 seconds after the 1.75 stun.

Quick Repairs: Cooldown: 45 Seconds. Channel to heal for 25% of your health pool in 1.5 seconds.(Compare to Zagara's Rapid Incubation, which heals for over 3 seconds 25% of her hp pool, but gives back mana too.)

Level 10 Talents

Robo-Goblin (Firin' Mah Lazorz still exists, just with a different effect.)

Grav-O-Bomb 3000

(Refer to the heroic abilities.)

Level 13 Talents

Turret Storage: Increase Rock-It! Turret charges from 2 to 3.

EZ-PZ Dimensional Ripper: Slows heroes hit by Deth Lazor by 40% for 1.5 seconds and freezes non-heroes for 3 seconds. (A 40% slow for 3 seconds that is insta-chargable might be too strong).

X-Tra Large Bombs: Increase Xplodium Charge Range and Radius by 25%.

Sprint: Activate to increase movement speed by 75% for 3 seconds.

Level 16 Talents

Superior Schematics: Increase Rock-It! Turrets attack speed

Level 20 Talents

Mecha-Lord: Basic Attacks deal 150% damage to heroes.

Firin' Mah Lazorz: Turrets shoot an upgraded Deth Lazor instead of the baseline Deth Lazor. Can only be talented when choosing Robo-Goblin.

Miniature Black Hole: Increase Grav-O-Bomb's radius by 25% and damage by 50%.

It's Raining Scrap!: Cooldown: 60 seconds. Activate to create 5 scrap near you over 5 seconds.

Robotic Shield: Cooldown: 60 seconds. Activate to reduce damage taken by 50% and reduce durations of stuns, slows, roots, and silences by 50% for 4 seconds.

Builds with new Gazlowe rework:

Turret Build: Clockwerk Steam Fists --> Engine Gunk --> Rock It! Turret XL --> Robo Goblin --> Turret Storage --> Superior Schematics --> Mecha-Lord/Firin' Mah Lazorz.

This build optimizes zoning capabilities of the baseline targetable turrets. A talent that was awesome but came too late into the field was Firin' Mah Lazorz, and making that avaliable at level 10 allowed the micromanagement and skill to come out earlier, but make Gazlowe even stronger at zoning. The remaining turret talents allow Gazlowe to easily dominate a lane and punish poor positioning by an enemy team.

Laser Build: Break it Down --> Reduce, Reuse, Recycle --> Hyperfocus Coils --> Robo-Goblin --> EZ-PZ Dimensional Ripper --> Goblin Fusion --> Firin Mah' Lazorz

This build optimizes heavy poke capabilities to constantly harass and even finish off enemies with ease. It may seem a bit unbalanced with the amount of damage that can be done in a wide range, but when considering the capabilities characters like Li-ming and Kael'thas brings in terms of range, the Laser is only strong enough to challenge those heroes' role at poke, not overtake.

Wombo Build: Extra TNT --> ARK Reaktor --> Shocking Explosion --> Grav-O-Bomb 3000 --> X-Tra Large Bombs --> Kwik Release Charge --> Miniature Black Hole

This build is even stronger with the baseline changes of the Xplodium Charge, capable of detonating earlier now. Also, there is more crowd control provided by the Shocking Explosion talent at level 7.

Defensive/Safe Build: Regeneration Master --> Reduce, Reuse, Recycle/Mercenary Goblin --> Quick Repairs --> Either ult --> Sprint -->

I appreciate any comments and ideas for a rework on Gazlowe. Gazlowe has not seen much competitive play and is still limited in effectiveness despite a pretty good talent diversity. This is my first time creating a concept here, so not everything might be perfect.
