Rylai's Idea- Dividing It Into Two Items
Staff of the Watchers
+
+
+ 1100 Gold = 3200 Gold +550 Mana +75 Ability Power +20% Cool Down Reduction UNIQUE Passive- Arcane Frost: Spells slow enemies based on the spell.
Rylai's Crystal Scepter
+
+ 900 Gold = 3200 Gold +650 Health +55 Ability Power +10% Cool Down Reduction UNIQUE Passive- Arcane Frost: Spells slow enemies based on the spell.
(Numbers are tentative)
This way, there is a version of the item for both AP Mages and AP Bruisers and both parties are happy. Staff of the Watcher's is a new caster item that provides a decent little bit AP and Mana along with the slow passive. It is a squishier version of Rylai's, which has been modified to give more health and less ability power, but also gain 10% CDR as well. There is also an idea to make a miniature version that builds into both of these items that provides AP, but I don't think anyone wants a mini-Rylai's for early game (or at least wants to play against it).
(at varying degrees) just because the item is too strong in general. An idea I have is to add range thresholds for the item based on whether you buy Staff or Scepter. Staff would be unable to slow up close enemies and Scepter unable to slow very distant enemies.
would be useless
