New Taric Rework possibly?

Alright, so I'm not gonna worry about the numbers, but I'll let y'all see what you think, I think its about time this champion deserved a full kit rework. Some of the moves, are based off of some of his moves currently, but tweaked a bit.

Gem Domination: Passive: Whenever Taric gains an assist, he gains 4 permanent movement speed. (No cap)

Imbue: (Cooldown) Q: Through the power of his gems, Taric shields all allies for 3 seconds, (% shield scaling with his Max health) as well as well as giving all allies a (% slow scaling with his speed) slow on there next auto.

Fortify: (Cooldown) W: Taric shoots out gems in a skill shot that may either increase an allies armor/ magic resist ( amount Scaling with Armor/Magic Resist) , or Taric may cast it on himself causing 3 gems to appear circling him dealing damage to any targets hit( much like ahri's foxfire) as well as each gem stunning for 1.5 seconds, a target may not be hit by all 3 gems. This effect may last for 5 seconds.

Gems- Gems are true power: (Cooldown) E: Whenever Taric activates this ability, wherever he walks, it will leave a trail of gems on the ground (Lasting 4 seconds) , When an ally walks on the gems while walking towards Taric, the ally receives a speed boost as long as they remain on the gemmed ground ( speed boost scaling with Taric's Speed). When an Enemy walks on the gemmed ground, the gems wittle the enemies armor, decreasing the enemies armor by 5 as well as dealing damage each second the enemy champion remains on the gemmed ground. ( Scaling with Ability Power), this effect lasts for 4 seconds. (cap 45 armor lost)

The Outrageous Power Of Gems: (Cooldown) R: Taric causes a 2 part Gem( kinda like this ^i^) To be summoned on the battlefield( much like Trundle's Pillar of Ice). If Taric summons this on an enemy, the Gem stuns them in place dealing damage( Scaling with Ability Power) and stunning the target enemy champion for 2.5 seconds. Taric may also break the gem into 2 pieces making them skill shots, At this point the gems may no longer hurt an enemy and will have no purpose, the 2 piece gem will become a global skill shot. Taric may use the gems to heal an ally 25% of the champions max health. The gems will heal more the farther away they travel, the lowest they may heal is 25% scaling all the way up to 60%. (You can only do one or the other)

What do y'all think? Although I highly doubt Riot will actually look at this, or if this is even a good idea, hopefully it will push Taric's rework all the more closer. And hey, ya never know, maybe they'll base one of his abilities off of these ones :D

The only thing Taric really needs is a VU. Maybe a tweak or two to some of his skills, but they would have to be minor or risk going into OP terroritory and have him nerfed again.

I think Riot will definitely change it, all champions with no skillshots are going reworked (Sion done, WW on the lab...) That's why we are proposing new skills ^_^ Taric right now is secretly OP ;-)

Holy crap this is such an old thread, I'm surprised you even brought it back up haha

He's getting a whole new kit, he needs it, his current kit is boring.

Also if there's something you feel should be different, how would you change it? Feel Free to post it :D

I fail to see how this resembles Taric in any way. You are basically making a completely new gem themed champion.

And when you think of Taric, what do you think? What "resembles" him?

His q is basically what he has now, just a little buffed, his w is just his w and e combined to make a skillshot, his e/passive/ult, is different, but what he has now, is crap.

RITO stated they want to make him more of a paladin.

I think AmaranthPhoenix is right, this kit is too different, it's a completely new champ with new mechanics. Here's my idea of the "same kit" in a different way : To me, Taric conception is fine so i made a new kit based on the current one :

Passive: ... Meh, it's okay, maybe just change its scaling?

Q : Short range skillshot, throw a gem to target location, then the gem stand there (4 or 5 seconds) before disappearing (somehow like fizz ultimate). If an ally is on the path of the gem when it's shot or collect it , he's healed (Taric can collect his own gem). If it hits any enemy or enemy champ collect it, deals damage and reveal for 3 seconds.

W : Don't know if it really need changes, but maybe we can put a mechanic where you choose the size of the aura, where bonus armor aura decrease as the size of the aura increase?

E : Same skill, different mechanics. Increse range and damage of the stun, but put a cast time, and make this a projectile that can be intercepted, like Cait's ultimate.

R : Fine as it is now, IMO.

This soft changes make more interaction on current targeted spells (Q and E). New ones are increasing Taric's choices, while opponents can also react way more easily when facing him. Not sure about this W, but it may give Taric the ability to protect more effectively in a small area around him, as the tank he is.

Oh, and no need to mention pizza-foot-boy needs a VU.
