Change Fervor of Battle

Instead of giving it a flat AD on-hit that stacks, have it give stacks that increase your bonus AD by a % when attacking enemy champs. So, instead of it giving 0.9-14 AD per stack, based on level, which can stack up to 8 times for a total of 7.2-112 AD per attack (based on level), have it grant 1/1.5/2/2.5/3% increased Bonus AD (level 1-6-11-16-18) which can stack up to 5 times. This increased bonus AD is only applied on-hit to attacks against enemy champions, and only stacks when attacking enemy champions.

That way can no longer take Fervor as a crutch for their damage that allows them to build tank but still deal damage. But champs who take Fervor and build AD still get the same use out of it.

Aatrox should be building at least two damage/lifesteal items, one of which should be botrk, so he'd benefit either way.

We come to a problem here. Furvor is designed to be used by on-hit characters, not AD stacking champions. On-hit champions often build a ton more attack speed than AD.

Fervor is run by almost every ADC except Jhin and MAYBE Vayne , who take DFT and WB respectively.

The problem with "on-hit" is that nearly everyone can get the same thing out of it; assassins, bruisers, adcs, or actual on-hit champs like Warwick KogMaw or Kayle .

This usually isnt as big of a problem since most ADCs, bruisers or assassins don't want to give up an item slot for an on-hit item, but with Fervor they can get it since its their best option.

Draven takes WB. Sivir takes WB also if I'm not mistaken.

Yes, this is a nerf towards late game Fervor, and the numbers on my proposal might need to go up, but lets look at how strong Fervor is ATM.

A late game ADC usually has 180-200 Bonus AD, with around 270+ total AD. Fervor of Battle ATM is giving them 112 bonus damage per auto. It cannot crit, but that is basically giving them a free 35% AD increase, only it cannot crit.

And as for the Bruiser Tank Assassin's abusing it atm, who might have as little as 170 AD at full build late game, an who run 0% crit (even tank Yasuo doesnt run crit) its giving them 65% increased total AD. For free

kinda strong

Fervor increases EVERYONE's damage too much, including ADCs. It would still be the case if you modified it so only ADCs can use it.

How about we delete damage-focused keystones instead?

They've all been serious issues in the past, and damage in general is WAY too high because of them.

Doesn't help. Aatrox is jackshit anyways, he doesn't needs any nerfs. If this shit goes lives d riot doesn't buff Aatrox, I'm never playing him again.
