How to buff tanks...

No. That's basically saying that a tank can just stand by you and slowly kill you without fighting you and while that won't be as bad as akali it would be very annoying.

I mean... like... when is that going to be useful?

The scenario for that to be useful is so damn specific

As someone who prefers tank metas, I say nay. Hopefully this post doesn't get deleted just from disagreeing... Seems to be a thing lately.

Haven't you been making threads and posts for a long ass time now about how tanks should be tankier and soak up more damage?

And now your idea of a decent buff is to make some of their damage not draw turret aggro?

You are literally the "damage gets creeped because when people ask for buffs and they're asked to elaborate they ask for more damage" meme

Make it so that sunfire and thornmail don't automatically force you to take tower damage.

This is a bad idea mostly because we had this in the past and it was a little unfair.

What we REALLY need to do with tanks is buff their itemization - marksman itemization is, once again, the best in the game with this round of buffs. They get their power spikes cheaper and faster than anyone else, including tanks.

Tank itemization needs to have similar treatment to with its 650 combine cost (down form 900 or something). Drop the HP down to 400 (or raise it up as needed) and reduce the combine costs of all HP+resistance items so that they total 2600g. Exceptions to this would of course be items like with its 250HP and explicit niche. would not be an exception. Drop the +20 armor while near your bonded and just give us 40 armor with 400HP please. While were at it, lets give this never used item a breath of fresh air; Bramble shield (We can rename it to frozen blood...). 10% of your max life is gained as a shield that slowly regenerates outside of combat (based on your HP regen)
