Chalice Items [Mana Font Suggestions]

Stacona··3 votes·436 views

On a side note before getting into anything, Athene's Unholy Grail should give at least 100% base mana regen.


NEW Mana Font Passive: Based on spell damage dealt restore 4-8% as Mana based on your missing Mana.*

This suggestion will be for Chalice and Athene's Unholy Grail. I am posting this suggestion as it will offer the items to be high regen items, but in a way that forces interaction, so it does end up being a nerf to passive spells like heals and in sieges where you are constantly missing spells the siege will end really fast due to running out of mana if you don't have blue buff. The most important thing to take away is that it is now active mana regen suppose to passive mana regen which will create more interesting gameplay.


NEW Mana Font Passive for the chalice bell (Mikael's Crucible): Restores 2.5% maximum Mana per 5 seconds.*

So the chalice bell gets a completely different regen item passive for Mana Font because supports don't deal damage late game and this is a support item. This passive is a lot stronger than Chalice and Grail because it is like buying blue buff but with magic resist and a heal/cleanse active. This approach towards the item was because supports do not get blue buff and with a stronger mana regen might open up some new mana reliant supports come in the bot lane (maybe Anivia support will show up). But mainly because supports do not deal damage so they cannot make use of mana return based on damage dealt.

So basically you want mana font to be the essence reaver passive. Most people hate that passive. It'd also have to have the 1/3rd mana from AoE skills like spell vamp or else AoE champs are going to refill their bars on one minion wave. Even junglers don't get % damage in mana back anymore.

If riot does something like that, it'll suck so bad everyone will hate it, no one would buy the item, and it'd have to be removed from the game do to general suck.

It's a nice idea, but I don't think riot could make it work well enough to justify putting it in the game.

Agree. And having blue buff as a passive would make EVERYONE with mana buy it.

Now how about a mana version of item 3211. You get a bonus 100% (or something) mana regen when you kill minion/monster with an spell and maybe a 25% bonus for hitting champs with a spell?

Now to prevent AD caster from buying this instead of item 3508 would be that it has to be magic damage instead of physical damage.

It isn't Essence Reaver's passive people do not like, it is the fact that it is the grail and there is no chalice like item to go with it--- besides the fact that it is basic attack orientated and it is casters that you want it on--- it will work normally on everything, think about it 1000 damage will be 40-80 mana based on your missing mana- even to minions you dont get this damage until late game, so the mana sustain would basically reduce the mana costs, and late game has the potential of actually giving back mana- in a siege scenario your entire team kills minions unless your team lets you mana drain like the marksman can lifesteal
