Concern about Fiora dealing true damage based on % of maximum health

darkdill·Jul 21, 2015·1 votes·501 views

We all know how much people dislike how Vayne deals % max health true damage, and now Fiora is also getting that kind of damage, such that building defense against her will be almost pointless. Sure, Fiora isn't supposed to have the high attack speed that Vayne does, but (unless I'm mistaken) she can continually switch targets to deal that %max damage to multiple targets throughout a fight, whereas Vayne only does one target at a time.

Why was it decided Fiora would deal % max health in true damage, instead of flat amounts? Why make her passive uncounterable by health stacking?

She can only do it with her ult dude, and only four times, to a single person. Vayne gets no such hard cap on her percent HP true damage.

No, she does it every time she triggers her passive, with or without her ultimate.

My main concern is people will QQ about it all the time just because it's "% max hp true dmg" without understanding it'd have to be a real fringe case for "% max hp true dmg" to be actually OP

You have to hit the person on the side that the mark stands out on. Simple solution to this: don't let the Fiora get on that side

With her ultimate she can only proc it on one person, and even tho she can proc it with her passive, she has to wait for 15 second for it to appear, and I do not know how you function in team fights but generally I do not tend to wait 15 seconds once a fight has begun and I do not the enemy team letting her wait as well. Also Vayne kits you, while you kite Fiora. So unlike Vayne, she can't tumble and knock back during a team fight, so I see kite comps being a problem for her, and they are not really a problem for vayne

This, its important to note that while the % max hp true damage is still a very strong thing to possess, this is two completely different champions; Fiora won't be anywhere nearly as elusive and hard to lock down as Vayne, nor is her true damage as simple to proc.
