Can we talk about how terrible some ap item buildpaths are?
Especially if you are trying to build one of these items as a last item, you will be stuck on a lot of gold to finish it.
Not only is this the most expensive item in the game, it has a terrible buildpath. It takes 1250 to get a large rod and 1265 to finish it, assuming you have all the components, which won't seeing as mages usually build this 4th or 5th.
I suggest introducing a new component to ease the build path.
New item: Little mage's hat
Cost:
+ 665 = 1100 gold
+40 ap
Unique passive: +10% ap
New buildpath for rabadons:
+ (new component) +
+ 815 = 3600 gold
Same stats
Takes a whopping 1365 gold to finish it, which means you won't be powerful before you finish it.
I suggest introducing a new compnent to ease building it.
New item: Staff of pen
Cost:
+ 765 = 1200 gold
+20 ap
Unique passive: Ignores 15% of enemy magic resist
New buildpath for void staff:
+ (new component) + 600 = 2650 gold
Same stats
If you are trying to build this as last item you will have to sit on either a
or a basic item. Bad. I suggest making it build out of
again to ease building it for mages wanting to get hp.
New build path:
+
+
+ 550 = 3200 gold
+600 hp
+60 ap
Same slow passive
