Sooo The AD items got some buffs to make them have 80 AD again due to the new tank items that were released. So can AP get some of that treatment(Give AP items more AP). Also GA is now not viable for AP mages due to the AD it gives(wasted stat).
Also I think mages need another penetration item too. Currently we only have 
and 
. While AD has 
.
Basically, can AP get some buffs Rito?

people dont want better existing AP items. they want the option or the opportunity of high AP builds again.
the old DFG/sorc boots/rab cap/void/CDR/zhonyas build is gone (120 + 120 + 120 + 70 + i believe morellos used to be 80, and grail was 60? correct me if im wrong) with 30% pen from void, 15% max hp from DFG, and the bonus 20% magic damage for 4s. it was quite the ramp up for mages. which said "damage" and their only defense was a zhonyas active.
ludens is not a dfg replacement, roa (was briefly 120AP, acted as an inefficient replacement), zhonyas was lowered, no other 120 ap/armor option offered.
basically we need 2 new 120 AP items, regardless of whats attached to them.
dont tell me hextech/morellos/ its tons of damages, no its not, people want maximum scaling, not CDR and second rotations.
On the pen side, I'd push for further nerfs to armor pen rather than buffs for magic pen, but maybe one more item would be ok.
As for buffing numbers up again, YES PLEASE. The reason mages like Brand and Zyra have been feeling oppressive is because they can get away with dealing a lot of damage with comparatively low AP. Boosting the raw AP mages have access to would be a buff to the straight scalers and the utility mages (high AP means better shields than with Liandry's for instance).
you guys stole banshees from us 
I just want mages to have more options.
