Armor/Mr vs Health

DragonManSquid··1 votes·399 views

Can any pros tell me why you wouldn't just choose one? I know there is probably a good reason, but I don't know what it is. Any feedback would be appreciated to help me make more educated build choices!

Because 4k HP+200 armor and magic resist is the minimum for a real tank to get.

Ignoring other factors (i.e. percentage-health damage, percentage-penetration, ability (mastery) scaling and the type of damage you are taking) , the main reason is how they scale off one another.

  • The higher your health, the more valuable resistances are.
  • The higher your resistances, the more valuable health is.

At a certain point, purchasing one is just provides more effective health than the other.
