is black cleaver worth it on warwick?

i mean the rage passive he can use effectively. and the 20% cdr is awesome

but so much of his damage is converted into magic damage, (like every single ability) idk if item 3071 passive for shredding armor is worth it? would i just be better off getting item 3078 ?
what about the item 3035 upgrades?

and would it be decent to get item 3020 if i was going a damage heavy non take build? such as if they had a bunch of tanks and i wanted item 3091 item 3153 item 1416 as opposed to the normal item 1401 item 3748 build

I was trying to decide if his ult would stack it but I'm not sure if that's all magic damage or not that you mention it

Imo youre way better off w/ item 3078 b/c of q and R applying on hits. item 3153 isn't bad on him either against tanks IF you can afford to not build a tank item in that slot.

yeah i have had some fun anittank builds with item 1416 item 3091 item 3153

its pretty fun, its not terrible vs squishies either your just really squishy yourself, and will likely die to them if u can ulti them first.

but most game i go warwick its becuase we dont have a tank so.. meh

although if they pick a tanky comp it's not like I'm going to pick Nidalee isnt that anyways

Im a huge Warwick fan loved the old and love the rework. I think the most fun WW build I've gone was a pure carry build when we were just really far ahead (i was toplane), item 3078 item 3146 item 3285 item 3047 item 3053 item 3026. My q did like 1k damage to squishies and even more to bruisers/tanks b/c of the max hp damage. It was hilarious.

and the gunblade healing is just silly.

Edit: my favorite thing about the WW rework is how versatile he is, he can build on hit, tanky, or even build for ridiculous burst.

I mean, it stacks PTA so why wouldn't it stack Black Cleaver as well? Jist the question if he'll deal more damage or not.

Why the hell would you need ARMOR PEN when you're doing a lot of MAGIC damage item 3078 is the the shit version to build WW. Way too expensive and relies on the Q spam when you should be levelling up W first

Ur q and ult deal Magic dmg, so ur black cleaver wouldn't be so useful..

I can´t recommend to build item 3078 because of several reasons:

  • not enougth defense stats. ww has very low base hp and mediocre armor/mr values
  • a bug (maybe intended not sure) where you can´t proc it with your q directly after your ultimate
  • item 3748 in combination with item 1413 has higher dps.
  • ww has very low base ad scaling
