ADC Items Should Cost More, Muramana + ER & New Crit Item Ideas

I think we can all agree that at its current state, adcs who heavily benefit off of item 3031 and two AS crit items like tristana and twitch are absolutely broken. Their items are far too cheap, with item 3006, item 3031, and 2 of the 30% crit items totaling a mere cost of 9700 gold. Granted you can CS well, anyone can get this extremely fast. I think the 30% crit items should cost 200g more while 20% crit items should cost 100g more to delay these power spikes.

Aside from that, item 3004 is one of the lowest-purchased items in the whole game simply because it's garbage. It takes so long to stack, and the final reward is unrewarding; to simply put it, this item is severely outdated. item 3031 , while it does have its uses, is reliant on item 3031 . You almost always get item 3031 if you have item 3508 , but getting item 3508 if you have item 3031 is optional or even bad due to the high prices compared to a 30% crit item. In my opinion, item 3004 and item 3508 should be combined for the following at 3500g, following the 100g increase:

70 AD
20% Crit
10% CDR Passive: Up to +30% CDR based on bonus crit chance. Passive: Restore 3% maximum mana on every crit. Passive: Gain 5 mana for every attack or spell cast (up to 2 times every 8 seconds). Caps at 750 mana. Passive: When 750 mana is reached, +250 mana and new active: Active: When toggled on: basic attacks consume 2.5% maximum mana to deal 5% of maximum mana as damage (on-hit strikes will proc this) damaging skills consume 5% maximum mana to deal 10% of maximum mana as damage

I think this combination will make item 3031 strong enough to be used independently from item 3031, as it is more suited for ability caster ADCs like lucian or ezreal.

This is my own personal opinion, but I want to have a new 20% Crit item similar to the old item 3078. It will provide variation among crit users who may not want item 3031 or item 3508. It would build out of Phage, BF Sword, and Cloak of Agility.

70 AD 20% Crit 250 Health Passive: Attacks provide +20 MS. Killing a unit increases bonus to +60 MS. Passive: Critical Strikes provide +30% AS for 2 seconds.

I'm not sure if this would be good, but I'd think it'd be neat for kiting and ADC on-hit champions like kog'maw.

What are your guys' thoughts?

Agreed. ADCs are supposed to be these people who are forced to spend a large chunk of the game farming and yet they get their items are so cheap compared to others. Your Essence Reaver idea also seems very interesting.

I am not a fan of "Critnity Force" though.

That ER has 4 passives and a toggle, dude. Something has to go if you want to have that.

or undo the buffs to those crit items, why did they get MORE crit chance anyways?
