I'm trying to make an item that increases damage by 20 for 2.5 seconds, and 25 charges, but I cant seem to make it happen. It cant be used, and when you pick it up, you automatically have the bonus without using it. I editted the ability for the item, but it still doesnt work. Please help me. Thanks in advance,

If you're using 'Item Damage Bonus' then it will take effect simply by holding the item. This takes effect for a lot of item abilities.

You can try basing the item's ability off of either Roar (if you don't mind the roar graphic) or Vampiric Potion (which, I believe, has a damage + effect in addition to the life steal.)

Failing that, well, you can always use triggers which give the hero a hidden ability based on Item Damage Bonus, and remove it when the duration ends.

If I were to make this item, I wouldmake it with triggers, but to make it with abilities, you simply need to make a new spell based off some ability that raises damage for a period of time and give it to the item. The item has to be actively used and stuff.
You are probably are adding a passive abilty to the item which is used if you are holding the items. It has to be an casted abilty.
