Does anyone else out their think League should make armor pen boots since they already made sorcerer shoes with magic pen? Bladed Boots/Assassin Shoes or any other name that riot would like to give them. +10 armor penetration (melee only) UNIQUE Passive - Enhanced Movement: +45 movement speed

Terrible name. Shadow Steps or something.

But no, they should not have their own boots unless you want every single person that scales well with armor pen to get nerfed. Assassins have way easier access to pen already(not having to build tanky/utility for it), and their damage vs squishies is already sufficient.

I don't know about that for solid armor pen reduction items just the maw@-10 and ghost blade@-20. I know the last whisper items did get a 5% buff, but its only the 2 of those plus black cleaver. So only 4 armor pen items total against a fully built tank is still hard when other items are needed.

as stated before, anyone that scales well whit armor pen will go for that early boots for it, assasins already deal decent ammount of damage as it is and easier access to armor pen then adc, adc will go for it instead of berserker boots so no.

I beg to differ that it would be an early pen item if its the same cost as the magic pen boots, the sorcerer shoes cost 1100 gold same as the serrated dirk which gives you 10 armor pen anyway. As of right now you can still get more armor pen if you get 2 maws since the pen is not a unique passive and its better more damage and magic resist instead of movement speed so its not like you can't get the pen now it would just be nice to have it on the boots instead.
