What does the Rejuvenator do in Deadlock?

While killing enemies and controlling lanes are the main objectives in Deadlock, other objectives matter just as much and are crucial once you step into the late game.

One such buff that might not be self-explanatory is the Rejuvenator, and its Rejuvenation Credit buff. Here’s what the Rejuvenator does in Deadlock.

What does the Rejuvenation Credit buff do in Deadlock?

The Rejuvenation Credit buff is given upon killing the Mid Boss, marked by a small golden symbol in the middle of the map. This boss, when killed, drops the Rejuvenator, which you need to heavy melee to secure. Once you do, all living teammates will be granted the Rejuvenation Credit buff for a lengthy period. This buff causes all minions you kill to drop 50% more souls and reduces the timer on your next respawn by half. It also grants increased health regeneration.

The Rejuvenation Credit buff is lost upon death, though the respawn reduction applies to this death. It’s also worth noting that this buff can be stolen by the enemy team. If your team manages to kill the Mid Boss, but fails to melee the Rejuvenator before the enemies do, they’ll receive the buff instead.

When should you go for the mid boss and Rejuvenator?

Your team should attempt the mid boss either when you have a substantial lead or when several enemy players are dead. If you attempt the Mid Boss while all enemies are up, there’s a good chance they could rush into the mid boss room and melt your team.

Worse yet, one person could sneak in and steal it. If the enemies are defending all lanes from minions in their base, it could be worth the risk. All in all, you should attempt it very cautiously and assess the situation.
