Runes and giving us more of a choice.

Shatter the Sun··1 votes·261 views

I feel with the recent changes to resolve and how it now lets us have offensive and defensive stats that there needs to be a change. Weshould be allowed to choose what stats are offered based off the 2 trees we have chosen. What I mean is: If we were to choose domination+precision, we should be able to choose if we want more from the **domination **tree or **resolve **tree. Tank supports got screwed over by this change and allowing us to choose to either full spec into resolve and take all the health and no offensive stats would further help the creativity of the rune page.

Edit: It seems people arent understanding what I meant. Before the recent changes with resolve tree it only offered hp instead of hp and ad/ap cause it felt bad taking it in solo lanes and trying to trade when you only have defensive stats. Supports on the other hand would take things like resolve+sorc and would be fine with only getting hp from it as they didnt need the offensive stats of the secondary tree. The changes screwed over tank supports and my solution was to let us choose if we wanted to spec fully into the primary or secondary tree we chose or get a bit of both. If I was Yorick who took resolve+dom or sorc and wanted to get some ad from my secondary rune which could be dom OR sorc I could spec into that tree's stats and forgo alot of the health I would get from my primary which would be resolve.

If I was Diana who took resolve+dom or sorc and wanted mostly ap from my secondary tree I could forgo all the health given from resolve and take the full ap from dom or sorc for the cost of no hp from resolve.

if I was Leona who took resolve+dom or sorc and wanted only health and didnt need any of the offensive stats dom or sorc offered I could forgo the offensive stats for the full health bonus that resolve gives.

More choice...

NO I want to have it where lets say you go sorc+resolve. With the new patch you get 65 health and 10 ap. As a tank support like taric who benefits from having all that health and no offensive stats but still wants to have the runes from sorc like before, are now at a disadvantage cause of it. If they were able to forgo all their offensive stats that they would usually get from it to get all the health from it instead then it would allow for alot more focusing on certain playstyles and builds.

Someone may like the runes from sorc but want to take aftershock and just be full tank. They now have to go into inspiration if they want to get the original health that resolve+other trees used to give. If we could choose to forgo the offensive or defensive stats and get the most out of what we got I feel this would be the right way.

Or they can go resolve+inspiration. Then they'd get +130 health, plus an extra 100 health if they take Celestial body. That's a possible total of 230 extra health at the start of a game.

And honestly, if you're a tank support you should be going resolve for that Guardian and Font of Life.

And don't try to say Guardian won't work on certain tank supports, cause honestly I've seen Leona's take it and it works wonders when suddenly they get hit just before going in. Free shield for adc, who they're usually sitting on top of, because they're tank-supports mostly for their adc until lane phase is over.

You can't have both, you need to forfeit one for the other. And if you don't want those extra damage stats, don't go sorc.

You can't have both, you need to forfeit one for the other. And if you don't want those extra damage stats, don't go sorc. Thats the problem. This change where before resolve used to give all health regardless of what secondary you took was changed cause they felt those other lanes that took it needed the offensive stats. What they didnt consider is the tank supports that didnt need the offensive stats.

What I am trying to say is they should let us choose what stats we get from the combined runes we select. Tanks like leona or taric could go sorc secondary cause they could get the ultimate hat for their ults and transcendance or null orb and still have the full 130 health from resolve primary. This changed recently and now they get 65 health+10 ap or 7 ad which they dont need. They want the full hp along with the secondary runes. The rune change wasnt even directed towards them but towards the solo laners that took resolve first and didnt have offensive stats for tradiing.

TLDR: If I went resolve and sorc and I am taric and I want 130 health. I could choose to have 130 health over the 65 health and 10 ap. This can be said about every other rune like this. They could have it where after choosing both primary and secondary you can choose how much stats from each you want. "You want more health cause you need to stay in lane longer and dont need any of those offensive stats but want the runes from sorc/dom/prec? You can spec into full resolve and still get the runes like before and vice versa."

I realize you should be going resolve for the tank stats. I agree but what I am saying is that the secondary for resolve will now offer offensive and defensive stats instead of just the defenisve 130 hp like before. This helps solo laners and hurts the tank supports that didnt need that damage. Sorc and dom both have runes that a support would want but they dont want the offensive stats of ad/ap from it.
