Dark Harvest Total Damage Per Game

Poro Lord·11/22/2018, 6:08:19 PM·3 votes·2,507 views

Some people say new dark harvest is broken because everyone is using it.

What kind of total damage at end of game are people getting?

From my experience, the best keystones, when used right, can get like 4 or 5 k worth of damage.

3.5-4 k is great

2.5-3k is normal,

less than 2k from your keystone is sub optimal.

from my guess, people are getting between 1.5 and 3k damage from dark harvest in each game.

which would be perfectly within the norm.

Please tell me your results.

Not all damage is equally meaningful though. Arcane Comet does damage too and pokes people down if they don't dodge or are CCd. Most of it is nearly irrelevant though because it doesn't stick. On the other hand a DH proc from 2 champions on a target can kill them and allow a reset scenario which turns a fight.

Anyway, I really hope they revert DH. It was much healthier and more skillful with the way it worked with soul pickups.

I feel what makes it so good is not the total damage but when the damage goes out. Its really good at helping you execute someone since it only pops under 50% hp. in Comparison, arcane comet and aery just go off the next time you hit when they are off CD. so while yes those other runes are doing more overall damage all of DH's damage is under 50% targets and is likely not going off as often as the other runes because of it. When you factor that in, its a very powerful Rune.

I heard there was a hotfix for DH?

Anyway, playing Brand and Morgana - two easy to proc supports - I generally get about a thousand damage per ten minutes. A really good game is 5K in 30 minutes. I think DH is fairly balanced as it is, but people are very keen to point out how different it is from the previous version. Its a lot more accessible now - and probably more in line with riots intended usage to be honest. This version of DH is very much so intended as an execution type thing to help champions who otherwise blow their load finish people off.

I have yet to play a game to see dark harvest overpowered . It is a scaling electrocute and does its job well. They nerfed it and it feels Fair.

it just depends on how well you do in game I think. the game i tried it I went 2/6 so it did nothing.

Ah yes, they should just remove Guardian because it's obviously weak due to the total damage it does.

aery i use to get me early game in disadvantageous matchups, because i don't need that extra damage in my keystone, I migh need some boost though for early
