Sion shield buff idea

Spoofghoul·Dec 11, 2015·3 votes·280 views

It should charge up in damage over its duration and you should be able to detonate it after 1 second

As far as damage goes it would have the damage it has now at 2 seconds and tripple that damage at 6 seconds.

Edit Ok the numbers are a bit off maybe up to up to 50% bonus damage depending on ow long its charged.

Or perhaps the flat damage part (including scaling damage) could increase with charge up to deal 150% bonus damage

Right now the flat damage part is 40 / 65 / 90 / 115 / 140 + 40% ap scaling

Hold. Sion doesn't need a 42% HP AOE nuke I'm a Sion main and... I just want him to be tankier

ok maybe 42% is indeed a little overboard xD

but what about just double the %dmg at 6 seconds, and tripple the scaling part of the damage

it's not like it is easy to actually keep your shield that long in a fight

I bring it to the fight rather than in the fight. Then I pop it when I can.

Yes i know its the only way but its so easy to spot anythign Sion does, its either pop the shield or kite.

If you have to wait 6 seconds before you enter the fight that would be plenty of time to see it coming.

But you can also detonate quickly for less damage

There's a damage difference? I'll be honest, I set it off as soon as I can because it suits my needs then.

I actually like the idea of it charging up but it would certainly need a damage adjustment. At most I would only give it 1.5xdamage at max charge unless they tweak it's base damage. I'd be for the 1 second detonation for less damage but I'd leave the damage it has now at 3 seconds. Maybe 50%/75%/100%/125%/150% damage at 1/2/3/4/5 seconds charged? Shrug... I mean I'm sure it would still need to be tweaked a bit and I don't even think he needs something like this anyways but I like the idea.

I say change his shield values to 8/8.5/9/9.5/10% from 6/7/8/9/10%.

It doesn't need more damage, if anything it could use faster detonation. Even then I doubt that's needed.

It used to detonate faster.

I don't really play him much anymore, mostly because when I do it feels like I'm lagging. To be 100% honest I'm still exceptionally salty about all of his nerfs. He's basically been relegated to the tank version of Zyra. Dedicated player-base who manage to find success, making him look stronger then he actually is.

I want my E back, I want the W back, they can have the Q back, and I don't want to be annoyed whenever I feel like dropping the beat again.

Won't happen, but venting every once in a while's good.

I wouldn't mind a faster detonation. And a movement speed buff.

I'm tired of being outran while in my passive.
