Dota 2/Neutral Creep Bestiary

Neutral creeps are enemies that live in the jungle. There are a lot of different types of neutral creeps, which this page will document. It should be a helpful guide for junglers and heroes like Doombringer, Chen and Enchantress, whose gameplay is heavily dependant on neutral creeps.

Small Creeps
Small creeps are obviously the weakest creeps in the jungle. They grant the lowest gold and experience and is only found in one camp on both factions.

Medium Creeps
Medium creeps are stronger than small creeps and are also more common, having two span points in each faction's jungle. They grant more gold and experience than small creeps.

Large Creeps
Large creeps are even stronger than medium creeps and grant more gold and experience. They also have two spawn points for each faction.

Centaur Camp
As the Centaur Camp is considered both as a medium camp and large camp, it can appear in both kinds of spawn points. For information about them, refer to the medium creeps section.

Ancient Creeps
Ancient creeps are among the most powerful creeps and grant the most gold and experience. All of these creeps have Spell Immunity, which makes them immune to magical abilities, so they won't be listed in their individual profiles. Ancient creeps only spawn on one point for each faction.

Roshan
Roshan is the most powerful neutral creep in the game. It spawns on the Dire side in his special pit which can only be accessed from the river. He is very powerful, usually requiring a team effort to take down with only a few heroes capable of defeating it single-handedly. He is the only creep that drops items. He drops the Aegis of the Immortal every time he is killed, and drops Cheese for every time he dies after the third.
