Seriously, it's a single item which gives AD melee champions the ability to wave clear, a naturally mage ability, and better sustain than just about any mage.
The amount of utility and stats that hydra (both forms) provide is undeniably the best most from a single item in the game. Though it's build path is pretty easy without any kind of massive gold gaps. Though just in case it did need, say a BF sword, tiamat increases your farming power.
Ark Sorcerer1 votesI don't think so. I understand where you are coming from but giving those champs better wave clear still can't compete with mages. Ahri or Xerath by level 11 at the latest can q once and finish the caster minions. The Hydra weapons can't reach that level of competence. If we were to complain about the Hydra weapons, then we could also complain about every attack speed item, most certainly Runaan's Hurricane, as it gives marksmen wave clear and they do not naturally have that at all as a class (I feel a great disturbance in the Force. As though millions of marksmen mains have cried out in retaliation that they are the wave clear champion in the game and siege masters. I sense the players getting upset over the natural truths. I sense that something frustration has been said). I mean, melee AD champs have better wave clear in their kits than marksmen do. They actually have abilities that can target more than 1 minion, Miss Fortune. I like the Hydra weapons and I say they are fine. I actually would use Ravenous Hydra as a means to prove that life steal on marksmen is broken.
MLDzXnRRR1 votesMany champions can't farm well without Hydra. You can say the same thing about the Runaans. Compare the farming rate of runaans and PD adc...
Cocho1 votesits good if thats what you need. Like rylais on mord. Clearing waves without a tiamant or either hydra on fiora just doesn't happen. Sit there and auto each minion lol
TyroneWatermelon1 votesWhy should mages get sustain? They have their range and burst/instakill.
deadlychuck1 votesWhy should AD fighters get more wave clear?
They have their sustain and damage multipliers.
