CDR Needs to be something you buy into

This should never happen:

"Oh no, I already have 40% CDR from two core items, but I want to build this item, but I waste the cdr on it.."

No. CDR at most should be 5% on core items, and CDR based items should have weaker stats to compensate the 20% CDR.

For real? The items that have 20% CDR on it are already busted in themself. and y ou felt the need to shove 10% onto everything else.

Imagine if those items had instead "Unique Passive: Your cooldowns are reduced by 1/5th". That says a lot more than just 20% Cooldown Reduction (Despite that it's the same thing)

Hell look at . It does Crit, Ad, Regens max mana on crit and can give 30% CDR??

You should have to invest HEAVILY into CDR to get it. Right now there is literally no point in buying because you get 40% cdr anyway.

If you're constantly going over the cap, you should really rethink your builds.

I'm not going to lie. It is kind of a hassle to do sometimes. There is CDR on like everything now lol

yea there is alot of cdr but if i end up with 47% cdr and go over the cap im not worried about that wasted 7% cuz i got the item for more stats then the cdr aspect

maybe you should stop trying to build every CDR item in the game and actually think about what your build is going to be instead. The only time i ever go over 40% CDR is when i'm support due to how many items have CDR that they build so it's more of an annoyance trying to get a build that does not go over 40% CDR

Alternatively, Guardian Angel.

Eh, it has no AP, doesn't increase W healing like Spirit Visage and doesn't provide a valuable aura like Frozen Heart.

I think this would be kind of smart. Perhaps there should be some kind of hidden buff for your Class. Like Mages would get CDR, Supports get increased Health/Mana regen, Marksmen get additional AD and AS, etc, while CDR on items would be reduced to compensate. Just an idea, it's obviously bad but it's a start.
