Rework Nocturne
is very good but a little under played, and honestly his abilities and dmg type make little sense. I mained
jungle for a while and although he is a good champ i think he could really use a rework in this coming assassins update!
-
His abilties all look like magic, there is a lack of ap junglers, make him a hybrid or ap champ, converting all abilities to AP scaling. Give him bonus magic dmg per hit, kinda like Irelia, that scales with AP, so he can be an AP AA champ. So that he is not op reduce his base AD a little if necessary.
-
His passive is only useful at the beginning, later on it's useless and it doesn't fit him at all.
is supposed to be a scary champ, getting into peoples heads, using psychological play. The ultimate does that really well. Do that with his passive in addition to ap bonus dmg per hit. For example spawn nightmares when he falls below 30% hp which scare the enemy, making him hard to target, or make a 1 second small field of darkness every time he gets a kill, so he can better get away. That would fit the assasins rework, and his image and playstyle. -
Convert all Q, W, E and R to do magic dmg and scale with AP. or both AD and AP. None of them are actually physical attacks so it makes more sense that way. I mean common he devours dreams, that is clearly AP. It solves the lack of AP junglers problem too. Right now E damage is useless because no one ever builds ap on him, it would make more sense then.

W: Reduce bonus attack speed, instead make the enemy fall into darkness for the same duration. Makes more sense for his image and playstyle. Also make the enemy hear an evil laugh during that time. Psychological play to the max.
-
Give a little boost to all overall psychological effects, make his skills darker, make them appear larger and make the sounds more patronising and scary. You wanted the assassins to have a unique vibe right? Well here is the perfect candidate, bringing psychological play to the table like none other. Think about sounds a little more. Making the enemy blind is good, but what about also making them death? Unable to hear or see pings or the chat every time someone is in the darkness and instead hear nocturne laughing or some jump-scare noises, wouldn't that make him even more interesting?
