Should there be an item that gives a mana regen aura again?

Anybody remember Soul Shroud? It was an item that was removed in S2 (I think) that granted nearby allies cooldown reduction and mana regeneration. Obviously, it wasn't a good buy back then, but now with everyone running out of mana every 3 spell casts, an aura that gives mana regeneration might be useful again.

Dunno what item I'd put it on, but at the very least it should be considered.

yea, i really miss the old mana manipulator - such a great support item, just very underappreciated.

This is a good item post-Soraka rework. Supports need to be able to provide mana again.

Mana manipulator had a lot of potential. It's too bad the build path was crap at a time where gold was really hard to come by for supports.

support soraka mana hp bank again

Yes, but at the cost of an item slot and gold, not as part of her innate kit.

Plus Nami and Sona would be able to do the same thing, essentially.

while we are at it lets remove clarity from the game

I'd love to take Clarity as a bottom lane support if Exhaust weren't such a game-breaker.

If you don't have Exhaust, you often can kiss your carry (and yourself) goodbye when an assassin comes around.

That might be a tad too convenient, though. Riot would argue that "it's not a strategic choice".

They'd probably put an aura on an item specifically designed for the job.

Not saying your idea is bad; just saying it's unlikely.

They could add another building path from Aegis instead of finishing building Solari. The active could be like: 30%-40% mana refill (team).

I always take both clarity AND exhaust at bot as support ?????

You must die a lot from not being able to Flash over walls.

AnOstrichWithPMS1 votes

if I was going to die, I was going to die with flash anyway, other champs have flash as well as many champs have abilities to jump over walls without flash lol I choose being able to give my adc and me more harass potential so we can get the enemy adc and support low and then get ganked and get a triple
