More Aura Items

Bgarretth··4 votes·462 views

I was thinking the other day, while making item sets for my tanks/supports, that it would be awesome if there were my items that gave off auras to boost the team. Yes, the ones that are here already are pretty cool, but we need some more to keep the game interesting.

Here's the ones that we have so far: item 3001 item 3105 item 3060 item 3110 item 3190 item 3302 item 3097 item 3050

What do you think?

As I see it aura items would be the best way to buff tanks in the game as they currently are almost viable but just need a small judge in the right direction.

I would like to see more support items build auras. Maybe a base item that has a small aura like health regen, then that builds into different items based on the item build

Im really curious as to why they got rid of the aura WOTA once had.

Because it was deemed OP and was being brought by supports to make ADCs insanely powerful. Imagine an AD ez with spell vamp or any other spell reliant adc.

They had more... there was a 475 cost mana regen aura (Mana Manipulator), a small health regen aura item (Emblem of Valor), and I believe Aegis has been changed what feels like a dozen times at least...Innervating Locket (health and mana regen), Soul Shroud (CDR and mana regen), WOTA used to have a spell vamp aura, and Runic Bulwark.

Riot's been on a trend of removing auras, not adding them. Probably because it's hard to balance them. They either end up being incredibly under-costed (old Aegis of the Legion was incredibly gold-efficient, even if you were by yourself) or very over-costed (current Zeke's Herald is over-costed currently, especially on supports who usually use zero of the stats and are already CDR-capped).
