Percent damage reduction should not stack

TotalJerk··3 votes·587 views

Just played against a Graves that built this: item 3715 item 3046 item 3812 (With a item 3156 to top it off). All of those items stacked together add up to forty percent damage reduction and it's total bullshit. You can't even build armor/magic penetration against it. Champions who build that shit are basically packing an summoner 3 on demand in a 1v1.

I honestly think that Graves' problem wasn't that he was too tanky on his own, it was just his synergy with this build. Shacos that built the item 3715/item 3046 combo pre-rework were just as frustrating.

Why the fuck is damage reduction even ON offensive items? Why is it on items to begin with? It's like the true damage of defensive stats, and we all remember what happens when you put true damage on an item. Looking at you, Spirit of the Elder Lizard Iceborne Gauntlet Ezreal >_>

imo hidden Damage reducion is BS anyway.

it's BS to see somebody who has low Armor and max HP but then you realize you do no Damage to them.

Riot is always talking about Clarity, but this is basically the opposite. they should have desinged those Items better.

item 3072 for example is a good desinged item as you can clearly see the Shield that reduces your Armor.

What's wrong with it?

TOTALLY not hidden power, something Riot detests. And totally fair for someone who deals ridiculous damage to be as tanky as a bruiser or juggernaut without building any defense items.
