Essence Reaver Increases Marksman Auto-Attack Range

If I recall correctly there was a large debate on trying to make a mid-teir item for so it had a build path that gave you mana regen early when you needed it most for laning phase. Many agreed that this item "Soul Sickle" should build out of + or However, it arouse that there would be abuse cases (mainly ) that would benefit too greatly from the item.

So what if it was a marksman-only item and it had an incentive to build over an or ? If we still want the Essence Reaver passive in the mid-teir and it works through auto's, how about a passive ACTIVE that increases your range so you can auto safely, and increase that range boost in the final item so it offers something really useful come mid-game when other marksmen usually have .

Also, although +25 range isn't much for the laming phase, here are the new possible abuse cases: Save for , and , the rest are off-meta ad builds, so they wouldn't be seen much, and because the item would be ranged only, and would not benefit from the items Unique's while in their melee form. Okay... so consider becomes op with this item, he can spam more q's and he can auto farther to bully you out of lane. Then again, he already builds for more q's, and he has the lowest basic attack range of all ranged champions in the game (except mini , until lvl 6)

Sooooo.... queue new item stats

EDIT: PASSIVE CHANGED TO ACTIVE ON BOTH ITEMS thanks: AtrocityEyes

---------Build path--------------

Essence Reaver - (ranged only) +80 ad +10% life steal +10% cdr

NEW UNIQUE passive ACTIVE - long shot: +75 basic attack range for 5 seconds (75s cooldown) UNIQUE passive: Restores 2% to 8% of the damage dealt by basic attacks as mana. This effect increases based on missing mana.

builds out of Soul Sickle and B.F. sword

Soul Sickle - (ranged only) +15 ad +8% life steal +10% cdr

UNIQUE passive ACTIVE - long shot: +25 basic attack range for 5 seconds (75s cooldown) UNIQUE passive: Restores 2% to 4% of the damage dealt by basic attacks as mana. This effect increases based on missing mana.

builds out of Vamp Scepter and Forbidden Idol.

------ end of item build --------

Only thing i'm unclear on is gold value, there currently isn't any gold:range ratio in the game yet, so whether or not gets a price increase to be the same as or is up to the balance team.

So, thoughts? Concerns? Would +75 range be too powerful when the item is completed? Would rise to be top adc with 925 total range during his ult? Would low range marksman be able to trade easier with the likes of in laming phase? Would forever have her rockets out and never use pow-pow again? Is this exactly what marksman need to kite it the current dive-heavy tank meta?
