Adjustments that could fix nautilus current state

Several unrelated ideas that might actually work, both when it comes to nerf him as a support and returning him to the jungle.

The list:

BASE STATS

Mana: changed from 400 (+ 47 lvl) to 350 (+50 lvl) Mana regen: changed from 8.626 (+ 0.5) to 7.5 (+ 0.75) HP regen: changed from 8.5 (+ 0.55) to 8 (+0.8) Att. speed growth: increased from** 1%** to 3%

Overall concept here is power-shift. This should make Nautilus worse at lane trading since he suffers more from resources early on, while eventually become better on that aspect as the game goes on. The att speed buff would help him at jungle clear, where he has always been way too slow.

STUN-LOCK NERFS DURING THE EARLY GAME

PASSIVE: Damage: changed from 2 + 6 per lvl (8-110) to 3 - 160

  • 3 per level on levels 1-5 (15 by lvl 4)
  • 5 per lelvel on levels 6-10 (40 by lvl 10)
  • 10 per level on levels 11-14 (80 by lvl 14)
  • 20 per level on levels 15-18 (160 by lvl 18)

CD per unit: increased from 6 seconds at all ranks to 8/7/6/5 senconds at lvls 1/5/10/14.

E - RIPTIDE: Damage: changed from** 55 / 85 / 115 / 145 / 175 (+ 30% AP**) to 40/80/120/160/200 (+ 40% AP) Damage on subsequent waves: lowered from 50% to 25%, but only against champions. (Numbers would be 10/20/30/40/50 + 10%AP). NEW: Knocks back non champions with the first wave that hits, placing the units on top of next. So this ability deals overall less damage to champions, but improves solo lane/ jungle clear with the damage reduction removal and displacement. A good reson to reroll him if you ask.

EVEN MORE JUNGLEWISE BUFFS (IN CASE OF NEED):

W - TITANS WRATH

Damage per second: lowered from 15 / 20 / 25 / 30 / 35 (+ 20% AP) to 5/10/15/20/25 (+10% AP) NEW: Monsters take 50 bonus magic damage from this ability.

Just what it says, faster jungle clear.

SIDE NOTE:

Those changes would problably need other minor adjustments in case this was an actual tentative balance change list, such as more base armor/HP, a thicker shield or something that pays off for the damge this guy is losing with this changes (wich i think is correct tho).

Leave a comment or something, it would be cool to see some opinions here.

"returning him to the jungle" He was meant to be a jg champ and not a support?
