Hello,
I wanted to talk about
an item I (for absolutely no reason) really like.
I think it is an outdated item but could easily be brought back with a few changes on it.
The first problem with it is the 20% cdr. That is just way too much for a single item (except for frozen heart but that item is just ... god), making it near impossible to fit into any builds that would want it. The second one is the low health it gives, at this price range the health given is closer to 400-500 hp and for the other stats it gives that just not an item worth picking up at any stage of the game. The last one is the passive, the way this item is build it is clear it is meant for team fighting bruisers and nearly only them. Not enough health for tanks, too much cdr for supports and these are the two main categories that would really want to buy a team giving aura item, especially with it being the only ad centric aura item (correct me if I'm wrong here).
I'm by no means an expert on this but I don't want to just QQ about this and just leave so here is how I would see it looking for more of a supporting role champion and less for a bruiser.
- Make the cdr 10% and raise the health to 350. It would make it a little less efficient gold wise (losing 10% cdr worth 316 gold and winning 100 health worth 266 gold making it 99.6% efficient rounding a few things up). This would make the item a lot more in line with current items like ohmwrecker and righteous glory stat wise.
- But this would make it a very strong items for bruisers to buy and the free gold it gives to the team is just hellishly good, best in the game if I'm not mistaken at 300% efficient with four allies. I believe this aura needs to be changed into something more team oriented whilst not being actually good in solo situations. I'm really not sure what to propose for this new aura but something like halving the ad would make it 85% efficient as a base and 225% gold efficient with the whole team around would make it's value around that of Solari and Righteous Glory at least stat wise and would not really be abusable by bruisers (I don't play bruisers so this last part is pure fiction).
What do you guys think ? Any other ideas to give this item a bit of a shine and take the dust off ? In any case thank you for reading !
