Lethality feels pointless

Edge of Daybreak··3 votes·848 views

I've had way more success just ignoring anything with lethality and just buying other ad items like death's dance etc. Lethality feels pointless I'm not actually getting that amount so it nerfs itself on purchase. They have less ad than non lethality items and the movespeed nerfs itself the moment I do anything. Edge of night is amazing but that's about it.

Your 15/1/3 Talon lethality game seems to say otherwise. You might want to play more with each build before deciding what is best.

And then you realize that's a bot game where a monkey playing Sona AD jungle could go 99/0.

Yeah the bots didn't know what hit them. I have played with lethality and without it. Not only do I not see a difference the non lethality builds did a lot more for me.

60AD with good actives vs 75AD and is a meh item at best.

The lethality items are still pretty good even ignoring lethality - edge of night is a FANTASTIC item. item 3814 item 3156 item 3065 gives you more MR than a real tank, on items you can actually use.

Yeah but maw has no lethality. I already stated that edge of night is great but the other lethality items just feel terrible and assassins can't get much use out of visage. Death's dance gives damage reduction/ sustain/cdr. Bloodthirster a shield/ hell even cleaver has more to offer. New duskblade just feels like it rewards me when I buy awful items and the reward isnt that huge. It takes around 3 lethality items for 125 ish true damage. That's not worth it.

.... Lethality on items is a unique passive. So no, thats with one lethality item.

Riot wants you to buy a SINGLE lethality item based on the situation, not buy all of them cus "muh build"...

Okay today I get to teach you some basic information about league of legends. Unique passives don't stack when they share the same name but different named items with unique passives do stack. If you buy different named lethality items the lethality stacks. You would know this if you spent any time at all learning anything about this topic before posting. If you buy a duskblade with the lethality mastery you get 97 true damage. Your next lethality item depending on what it is will raise the damage immediately and so on. If you buy every lethality item + have the lethality mastery you get 187 true damage.

I can understand why you didn't know any of this cus "muh idiocy"... but try to be less ignorant before speaking.

The only reason I buy Lethality is for the stackable 20 out of combat movement speed, otherwise raw AD is much more valuable.
