Taric

Almost posted this in the Sona thread, but decided it'd be better in it's own thread. With all the talk of Sona and reworking her aura do you have any similar plans for Taric's ult?

Please update his VFX. I am so tired of triangle feet. His kit works great, but he is so behind in visuals.

His kit needs an update. He's not weak, but his skills have low impact compared to other supports.

His kit needs some changes. I would remove the heal completely

I had some solid ideas for Taric's rework/VU, planning on posting them if I can get my concept art finished, and get the kit written up to a level I'm satisfied with.

Personally I think he would better off as defensive support like Braum and less of the generalist he is now. Below are some ideas I've had, I make no claims that they're good just thinking out loud.

Passive - Think the cooldown refresh should be moved back to Q only, and let his E,W be strong without needed to be spammed.

Q - no real change except noted above

W - Remove armor shred. I think the loss of damage from free armor shred could be used to either buff up shatter's damage or add a debuff to champions hit. For what it's worth Taric should lose all bonus armor from the spell when he pops it. Basically stronger tradeoff for a stronger active effect.

E - Changed to a line skill shot, better range, hits first target. Basically the Rengar bola treatment. Does more damage/stuns the closer target is to Taric.

Ult - not entirely sure, but it needs to not be a free stat aura. I think some kind of aoe effect centered on taric that damages/debuffs nearby enemies would be the way to go.
