What if Ohmwrecker temporarily gave allied turrets the old Inhib/Nexus laser and prioritize champion

...s instead of minions? And then give it an appropriate per-tower cd so people won't spam them on a single tower during seige.

If that ends up zoning too much then maybe make it so it'll change target to the closest champion as soon as the minion it's targeting dies.

Not sure how long the Ohm buff should last though, 3 seconds seems too short. 7-10 seconds maybe?

This could lead to some plays to give your jungler a few extra seconds to help you when you're about to get dived, or to try to stave off an engage while the enemy's seiging by making the tower more dangerous, plus help waveclear.

Any thoughts?

And maybe it could retain its current active in addition to this one you speak of. The Ωwrecker active could have different effects, based upon whether the target was allied or not.

I like this, but only if it would also keep its current item and change its effect based on if the target was an ally or enemy turret.

Just give it the old summoner spell garrison when used near an allied tower.

Well then it wouldn't be much of an ohmWRECKER now would it? [slayer-jinx-wink]

...well how about OhmBringer then?

what if riot just removes the item, people have been posting on how to buff this item for years and it still has not received any changes.

this will cause more problems than the problems it will solve. Towers are weak yea but we shouldn't want them buff as them being a viable stand alone defense or protection by just being under it. Trust me when i say this as someone that has played strategy games, turtle strategies are cancer. Dear fucking god the Warcraft 3 matches vs some human turtle bullshit.

what if riot gave ohm wrecker 200 more hp and removed the unique passive of item 2053 point runner decreasing it by 5-10% movement speed but letting it stack with items which you want to build all if to make use of Ingenious Hunter as none of them are powerful enough alone and tanks dont have other strong active items that you want to keep activating. item 3060 5 more armor 10 more magic resist 75% more hp/5 (and hopefully give it back mp5) item 3512 15 more magic resist 15 more armor. Id pay up to 600 more gold on the first 2 changes and 800 on the 3rd.

Id like more slot efficient tank items even if they have worse gold efficiency to help tanks who dont have massive armor steroids. Because Tank items either have very good stats with meh passives/ actives like item 3110 item 3143 or very good actives/ passives with bad stats like item 3083 item 3512 item 3193 item 3065 item 3194 item 3001 . or meh both item 3075 item 3742 item 3068 thorn mails having an okay grevious wound passive but the passive that actually helps in the fight is garbage when they made it scale with armor added with them nerfing the armor of thornmails when it was already garbage stat wise because it was only 100 armor and nothing else hp or cdr but they gave it hp but took more armor thus not giving it any additional power

while adcs mages and assassins got damage items that have to help them live run heal do damage and wave clear. all of that item 3040 item 3102 item 3152 item 3151 item 3100 item 3027 item 3907 item 3089 item 3157

item 3087 item 3153 item 3031 item 3036 item 3139 item 3004 item 3046 item 3094 item 3085 item 3072

item 3142 item 3147 item 3814

while tanks get movement speed thats conditional and has to ramp up item 2053 item 3742 when damage classes always have movement speed except assassins.

Their items are less slot efficient than other classes and there are penetrations items to make those already less slot efficient items worse.

Their runes have ramp up times and long cooldowns with low values for each rune. compared to damage champions access low cooldown runes or ever present / far less conditional rune effects. and all of tanks problems Bruisers has it amplified because they want to use the same defensive items tanks use but again they are not indivdually slot effeicent so unless you one of the broken bruisers (fiora riven yasou and lee sin though not recently) you have to build full tank with tank boots 3 tank items and 2 ad items that are also heavily invested in the tank stat of hp item 3071 item 3748 or item 3053 item 3078

Why do people ask for the laser turret back?

Are you the people that never played the game when it was around? They do zero freaking damage. You can be a Sona with zero defensive items and tank that laser for 6 consecutive seconds and lose like 30% of your max health having cast ZERO abilities.

The hilarious thing was people did not complain about turrets "doing no damage' UNTIL THEY ADDED THE LASER INTO THE GAME. After they got put in the first time, people were like wtf no damage ashe just walks under turret and kills me with auto attacks alone then she walks out, this turret sucks.

The only thing I could reason as to why you'd want them back is you are so desperate, that you are of the belief that "anything is better than what we have now", even though what you think you want is not what you think it is, it's actually just worse.

Any thoughts?

What if it gave old upgraded fortify with splash damage and increased AA speed?

Even squishy champs can tank turrets for a few seconds now, so the whole item is pointless.

The item is very situational but I found my self building it on occasions against all AD teams since I almost always build Raptor Cloak anyway.
