Dota 2: How to get unique Greevils couriers

With reference to recent updates we publish new review of Eggs and Essences.

As it was said earlier by one man: just hatched creature is very sensitive to everything, that`s why every essence gives your pet unique effect. There are no methods or manuals for essence`s usage. Only trail-and-error method reveals the rules of growing up Greevils.

Every hero who has ever met and defeated Roshan got the Egg. If you don`t want to kill Roshan, you can buy it in Dota 2 shop.

Each Egg has 9 slots for essences (others 6 slots are used for mixing colors, that to get green, orange and purple colors):

3 red slots (Exort essence)
3 Blue slots (Quas Essence)
3 Yellow slots (Wex Essence)

Different Types of essences:

Quas Essence
Wex Essence
Exort Essence
Unusual Essence
Strange Essence
Subtle Essence
Shadow Essence

WARNING : for those of you who are willing to experiment, DON'T use a shadow essence on an egg that already contains other types of essences, it will always convert into a dreaded egg (Black) no matter what, and your essences already put into the egg will be kinda useless, since you can just put a shadow essence into an empty egg to get the same result.

The difference in level between courier types results in different animations for them.

Red eggs: (Majority of Red Essences )

Ferocious Egg (Red type 1 ): TBD, Hatch outcome : Red Greevil Level 1

Natural Eggs

Imbued Egg (Natural type 1): 1 essence of any type except shadow OR All other combinations, Hatch outcome: Normal Greevil Level 1 (Naked)

SPECULATIONS:

Unusual essence will not change the egg color or the outcome, but it might cause the courier to be unusual .
Eggs will hatch after the event is over, and not anytime before.
Egg outcomes will be Greevil Couriers, The Greevil will have a number of different parts ranging from Ears, Eyes, Hair, Horns, Nose, Tails, Teeth and Wings. He will also come in a range of different colors etc.

That is how couriers will look like:
