Nashor's tooth

It's nice to see this forgotten itme finally get some love. But i feel that it's passive need to be buffed a little bit aswell.15(+15%ap) is not worth with this stats for 3000g unless your main damage source as an ap champion is your aa. The scaling is fine but the base damage is ridiciolusly low. It deserve around 40 at least. (maybe not 40 but it deserve more). Lich bane gives you 75%ad (50%) ap after spell cast and its on 1.5 sec cd. Ludens gives you 100 (10%ap) and its triggered on spells. 15 (15%ap) is clearly very low and those who could rush it will just get Morello because its give the same from the most important stats and cheaper with 700g and also solve your manna issue. Champions like would rly like to replace morello with nashor but its delay their power spike and don't give enough to compensate it. Nashor could be a very nice niche item as it supposed to be, but need some attention. Also it would help a little for the poor, overnerfed

I've always been bothered that Nashor's is rarely picked on AP champions with powerful AP scaling on their auto-attacks. It suggests that the effect that the thing is giving is drastically under-powered.

Just contrast it with Lichbane. Assuming you have an attack speed of 1.5 with Nashor's you'll be getting off three auto-attacks in two seconds, or 45 base damage and .45 scaling. Lichbane can proc twice in the same amount of time for about 150ish base damage and 1.0 scaling. Even when taking DPS into account, Lichbane is a superior item. That just shouldn't be the case.

Remember that if you combine this with the mastery, your basic attacks will deal 20% of your AP. That's insane late game. Let's say you have 600 AP (and this could be a lot more), your basic attacks are dealing an extra 120 damage. With 800, AP, that's 200 damage. Put this on a Teemo or Diana, and you're doing real damage.

Lichbane is still superior item; if you want to DPS, go for AD+Crit strikes, not for Ap. 15 % AP +15 dmg = 165 bonus magic damage on hit (1000 AP). 165 bonus dmg is a joke compared to the 1000 dmg IE crit.
