Jinx build check

EvilRabbitt·Sep 5, 2014·1 votes·441 views

I built this, or something close to this, on ARAM (I would probably swap the boots)

Would this kind of thing work in Summoner's Rift? Because the survivability on the summoner spells and the mega damage on my autos......was really fun...... If not, what should I change? (don't touch the boots, I always build those situational depending on if im pure ADC or if I need more survive)

Usually a good jinx build is item 3031 item 3046 or item 3087 item 3072 item 3035 Add a 6th item bork/ga/banshees.

Manamune and wits end are both pretty terrible on jinx. she doesnt use manamune well, and wits end is just a weak item.

Will keep that in mind- I was aiming for highest Pow-Pow/Fishbones damage. On the note of max damage per shot, does this work better? The items you set up top? Oh, and is Shiv a strong item or should I swap it out for something else? There are lots of options that let me pump damage continually instead of every once in a few seconds, but I haven't parsed.

This is core on jinx:

item 3006 item 3031 item 3035

Build two of these:

item 3087 item 3046 item 3072 item 3139

Note: you should have at least one of Static Shiv or PD

And one of these:

item 3026 If they have a fed assassin.

item 3102 If they have a long range cc that would mean death (like morgana or thresh). Or if they have people who are dependent on a combo Or if they are mostly magic damage

item 3143 If only AD champs are able to hit you.

Very rarely, if you built AND they have no burst, you can get

If you're in unranked, and just going for the lolz, you can skip the defensive item, and just get 3 items from the second list, or item 3085 . Before those of you who are experienced yell at me for this, it's because the rocket splash damage splashes on runaan's shots, too (like runaan's Kayle), and OP wanted maximum AA damage, not maximum damage overall.

If you get , you should have only 1 of .

Note: this is not a build ORDER.

The order should be:

item 1055 item 3031 item 1001 [ item 3006 & item 3046 ] item 3035 item 3102 item 3072

Those are example items, but that's a build that it's pretty hard to go wrong with (although you can certainly do better builds, based on the situation).

Thanks a bunch, and thanks for keeping in mind the AA damage fun.

As an aside, if you want to do most total damage you'll want to get the defensive item - usually adcs have no shortage of damage; the issue is their ability to get off their damage.

Shiv is a very strong item on Jinx. It turns her into a monster of a tower destroyer. IE is just good in this meta, and the bonus damage on Shiv can crit, so there's item synergy. "Core:" item 3031 item 3087 item 3006 Situational: item 3139 if they have lots of cleansable CC (stuns etc) (6th item) item 3102 as a defensive 6th item item 3072 if you're fighting a lot of sustained fights item 3142 for burst or if you're getting... item 3153 for when you're autoattacking a lot item 3035 for when your enemies decide to build 1 armor item. Or before.
