/slightly higher mana regen when at less than half /all monsters get a boatload more hp

So............ where are they, Riot?

Also, good job continuing to drag your feet on addressing the whole reason the jungle sucks right now while continuing to bury supports just for funsies. ~Uiru

Honestly, I don't see Evelynn getting a huge buff in one patch. Not to say that I don't want Eve to get buffed, I want her to get buffed so badly because I love playing her.

Think it's gonna take a couple of patches to see her buffed.

But, I agree with you, this slightly higher mana buff is barely useful.

EDIT: Maybe these aren't the buffs Riot was referring to. Staying optimistic for a little while longer!

You guys are under the impression that Riot actually has any intent for her to be viable. It's cute, but someone has to break the harsh reality to you some day.

Well, it's certainly not the Ravage buff with the on-hit effects applying to it. Unless I'm doing something horribly wrong, I don't know many on-hit effects that can be obtained in early game - unless this also applies to the jungle buffs like Heavy Hands.

I believe heavy hands and red buff are on hit so yes, I believe those would be applied.

I am assuming it does apply to the Heavy Hands buff as that would seem to be an on-hit effect. If that is the case, it will definitely help Eve's early sustain just through taking less damage.

Otherwise, I doubt that Evelynn is ever going to be buffed to the point where her jungle clear is ok or middle of the road considering she has some of the best ganks in the game just based on being able to reliably get to her target.

Only if she starts Krugs, and having a predictable starting point is a good way to get invaded and killed at your second buff. Red buff side was already better for a healthy clear because it gives health regen.

My opinion is all she really needs is the equivalent of 2% spell vamp to make her clears acceptable.

Monsters should get more HP and it's a great change for all junglers. It means greedy laners will have less incentive to steal camps. In the end, it's not really harder because the Machete damage was buffed too.
