Armor Aura Items?

Diamond Frostman··2 votes·467 views

I know that item 3190 and item 3060 are MR items that give out an MR Aura but where is the Armor version of this. Why is there no aura for Armor in support items outside of Taric's W. Is there a reason for this because it would be nice to have a support item with an armor aura for AD heavy enemy teams, maybe one for critical reduction, like the -10% Crit Damage on item 3143?

item 3110 is an indirect armor aura as it lowers attack speed.

Partly true. It doesn't work against AD casters, like Zed/Talon and the caster-like ADC like Ezreal or Corky.

Yeah but if you look at Corky after a game he does mostly magic damage now (even if he builds full AD)

AoE damage tends to be magic damage hence why Aegis items exist, while physical damage is usually more single target driven hence the lack of one (Aegis use to give armor aura long ago but riot removed it for these reasons).

Auras in general are on decline. Riot considers them a hidden power and unhealthy. I would look for Taric's armor aura to be removed or significantly modified in the rework.
