Why is kleptomancy still dropping gold bags?

YoungFarmer·Feb 13, 2018·1 votes·1,197 views

I was playing teemo top with klepto because you can't keep up with gp without klepto. And I got 3 gold bags in the first 5 minutes, that gave me 70 + each time. Thats beyond a doubt broken.

Why is a mastery even able to give you upwards of 1000 gold a game and tons of consumables.

A couple complaints I have with gp and klepto is: 1 he never seems to go oom now even when spamming his Q. Two he barely gets punished for poking with his Q instead of last hitting minions with it.

Well they are nerfing him hard next patch. His barrles only last 25 seconds, and his oranges actually costs mana early game

What happened to you is a bug because Riot has stated that the way the cycle works for Kelpto you cannot receive the same item 3 times in 20 procs

Even if thats so and they fix it. Get 100 gold from simply clicking Q on someone is op af.

You dont get 100 Gold. You have a 1/60 chance of opening a gold bag and getting 100 gold and a 1/17 chance of it dropping a gold bag at all.

That leaves a 1/1020 chance that a gold bag drops and is 100 gold.

Seems pretty balanced to me

1/60 chance of getting a sly gold bag seems incredibly off. I get them more than any other drop consistently when ever I use klepto. Also how did you get the odds 1/60 there are 13 consumables that you can receive from klepto and even though you do not acquire one every proc, I can hardly see how its 1/60.

My bad, Riot has stated you have a 1/17 chance of getting a gold bag. The 1/60 was your odds of getting a bag that is 100 Gold (since you can get anywhere between 40-100, hence the 1/60 chance.

You put those together and it gives you your odds of procing a 100 gold bag

even still the average bag of gold is 75 gold. Thats pretty good amount of currency. I often see Ezreals with 600 plus gold at 20 min just from the procs, thats not including the consumables. The RNG of klepto is also not incredibly fair. you could be in the middle of a brawl with and ezreal and he could proc klepto and get an elixir of iron which rewards him with 150 hp. Klepto has so much RNG involved I don't believe it is a healthy keystone.

Riot literally nerfed water drake because people found it unfair when it would proc in the middle of a fight.
