Help with late game tank build

Renevade·Oct 16, 2016·1 votes·651 views

Which runes give me the most health possible late game? The ones that stack health per level, or the ones that increase health by a %?

Which one gives me the most?

Full scaling yellows give 216 HP at level 18. Full %Hp yellows give 4.5% bonus HP. To find out which ones are better you want to figure out how much HP you need for the 4.5% to be greater than 216. 4.5% in decimal form is 0.045, 216/0.045 = 4800. So if you have more than 4800 HP without runes, then the percent HP runes are better. Since you will have less HP than that in most cases it's better to have the scaling HP runes. Doing the same math for quints leads to 3240 HP being what you need to surpass without runes for %Hp to be better.

how many times do you get over 3500 hp on a champ ? at 3500 hp +4.5% hp is a total of 157 hp where hp per lvl givess you 216 hp at lvl 18 which is 59 more hp

With Titanic Hydra, Black Cleaver, Deadman's Plate, Spirit Visage, botrk and my choice of boots I come out to 3928hp on Olaf with the 4.5% totalling it to 4104. 50hp isn't going to make a big difference, in fact it's not even going to make a small difference, especially not when I can just take veteran's scars, though I'd rather take runic armor in my masteries.

Personally, I don't take hp seals on any champion, because I feel armor is better due to the fact in the lanes where hp is supposedly "more beneficial" in just about every other lane, most champions are ranged, and so can and will try to autoattack you if they have any brains, so I find armor more useful all across the board.

but hp per lvl still helps through the game as you level providing more hp at all stages
