I recently tried to learn how to use a tank support. Out of all the games that i played leona stuck out to me the most as being the most fun. I have been trying to play her as best i can for the last few days with moderate success. I have full tank/support runes and masterys and build her with all the support items with actives. But when it comes to fighting i feel i do alot less damage than the leonas i have fought in the past. I was wondering what the best what to go to make her somewhat more of a fighter for those games where we need extra damage. Also any general tips would be very much appreciated.

Run full defense except 3 movement speed quints. You can mix flat armor with scaling health and flat MR with scaling MR. Armor reds typically. She needs to be mobile and she almost always needs health and armor or health and magic resist.

The only damage items you really run on her is item 3068 or item 3050 . You could maybe get away with a item 3053 but you really aren't suppose to do damage. You are suppose to survive long enough to get your combo's off typically E, Q, W, then out.

item 2303 item 3068 item 3025 item 3009 item 3060 item 3102 0-12-18 [Strength of Ages] Marks 9 AD Seal 9 Armor Glyph 9 Scaling MR Quints 3 Movement Speed Space out you abilities and your AAs and spells. E >AA>Q>AA>W>AA>R>AA>AA

If you want her to be more of a bruiser just trade item 3060 and item 2303 for item 3071 and item 3748 or item 3115 and item 3116 depending on if you need to add AD or AP to your team. But trust me you don't want to.

you should never have to build "extra damage".
practice landing your ult (full stun).
combos: RWEQ or WEQR
