Riot: Please allow us to interchange our path bonus.

Kush Master Metz··1 votes·292 views

As a Fiora player, Press the Attack looks suboptimal to me, as my passive is unaffected by the 12% dmg increase. My desrired rune page would be Phase Rush, but I'm locked into the precision tree just so i can get the 18% attack speed. It feels so disheartening playing with anything that isnt precision just simply due to the loss of attack speed i get from going ANYTHING else besides precision. I thought the point of this update was to give players more options. but with the locked in "path bonuses" I am forced into one playstyle and one playstyle alone (unless i rush Stinger! LUL). PLEASE Riot. give us the ability to choose our path bonus or atleast choose a path bonus from our secondary tree if our first doesnt suit the champ very well.

TLDR: Ran 13% Attack Speed Runes on Fiora previously, Unable to compensate for the loss of attackspeed now unlesss i spec into precision (aka, press the attack aka, the dmg inrease doesnt affect my true dmg)

A side note: to all who view this that arent very familiar with Fiora, nothing feels worse than being lined up with a vital ready to proc ult only to die because you didnt autoattack fast enough due to low attack speed)

The flat AD from sorcery would be better for Fiora than attack speed...

when you possess the sheer talent needed to proc ult quickly (as I do) it feels terrible standing there waiting for your auto attack to come up when you could be moving onto the next vital. Fiora doesnt benifit as much from attack speed as she does from bonus AD on that we agree. However, Fiora needs a certain amount of bonus AS in order to perform optimally (approximately 50%). There's a reason why the most optimal Runes and Masteries for Fiora before preseason had Attack Speed Quints and the 5% from Masteries.

That's kinda the entire point of the new rune system. You max-min your desired effects based on how you want to play.

Yes, and I desrire to run Phase rush with 18% attack speed.

well you don't get that. You either have to pick one or the other

Well unless I'm mistaken I believe the entire point of this "Runes Reforged" deal was to give players more options with how they'd like to play their champ. Unless I'm trying to play "autoattack cancel lets wait with my thumb in my ass for my auto while im right on top of my vital" Fiora I'm LOCKED into the precision tree unless I can get Attack Speed elsewhere.

(I have no options.)

If you could get absolutely everything you would ever want with one setup, THEN you would have no options.

When you have to make tradeoffs, then there are real options.

Or I could have the attack speed from precision then go whatever keystone i want? Glacial Augment, Grasp of the Undying, and Aerie are all other keystones i would go in certain situations if i had access to the Attack Speed. (Thus, I still in fact, have no options.)

It's almost as if you have to make a choice.

Actually, quite the opposite; it's almost as if im locked into Precision, thus my choices are taken away from me (I guess this is a hard concept to grasp). Might just be a Fiora thing, because trust me when i say she feels really bad to play without the attack speed. Hopefully they can figure something out because I'm not the only Fiora player frustrated with the new runes.
