Why doesn't Taliyah use Q for item procs?

Subject 5··2 votes·670 views

item 3025 item 3100 item 3078 proc with Q for Taliyah ? I main Tali and it would make her so much, just, better and "funner" to play if she could have more diversity with her item. She gives up a TON of power for this ability to proc that ability.

Sheen procs on basic attacks. Q is not a basic attack.

Ezreal procs sheen on basic attacks and Q, this is stuff that b5 should know.

Ezreal's Q specifically applies on-hit effects. As such, it doesn't apply on-spell effects (i.e. Rylai's Crystal Scepter).

Taliyah's Q applies on-spell effects. As such, it doesn't apply on-hit effects (i.e. Spellblade).

Yeah his Q is a basic attack. Why you want a mage to have an auto attack amplifying ability is beyond me. Plus even if it did proc sheen effects, it means it's no longer spell and as a result you no longer proc Rylai's, Ludens and the like. She wouldn't even be a mage anymore.

You almost act as if there was absolutely no way to enable both of those effects at the same time O_O

There is no way. Something can't be a spell and an auto at the same time. It's not only game breaking but OP.

I don't understand why it would proc them, I don't think she really needs it.

It would make her broken. Do you seriously want her to be able to proc lich bane with an ability just like that?

You are asking for her to be nerfed to the ground.

To be fair, she needs to gauge her mana plus she also needs to gauge her terrain. It isn't like her damage is INSANE and she needs to be built with toughness in mind because she will be blown away from anybody that is bursty. She is incredibly weak when she is without her terrain q's that give her multiple attacks and she also needs to get within retaliation distance as well. Unlike with Ezreal, Ezreal he doesn't need to be within risk distance to actually hurt somebody because his Q range is just so long.
