I wish riot would change Nautilus's 'Titan's wrath'(W) mechanism and roll back his stat

By using 'W' just activates the shield and his AOE damage should be his basic attack.

The reason is that W is his only dmg mechanism, and once his shield goes off he is nothing more than a sand bag

(if you want to talk about his Q,E,R I would like to mention they are just CC skills unless you go full AP on Nautilus)

Also, his stats are somewhat like lux's. While Riot mentioned that Nautilus's role is fighter and tank, he is armor, mr, and health are low as ap champs.

I wouldn't think Nautilus would become OP if Riot roll back his stat into S2 and able to move through the wall by using his Q when he was released,

because there are too many op champs like Reksai and Lee sin (who was OP jungler from the day he was released and still is OP)

keep in mind nautilus has a LOT of CC- more then any other champion actually, and with that he has a lot of sticking power, i agree his base defensive stats are too low right now, but the "his damage disappears as soon as his shield pops" is one thing that keeps him fair to play against, Nautilus' strengths is his ability to SET UP kills for his team mates if he had reliable DPS on top of all the control he can dish out he'd be absurdly powerful.

i know he's one of the lesser played champions in the game right now, but he's not nearly as weak as he's perceived to be, any changes to make nautilus' DPS more reliable would push over the edge.

i like the idea of the charged Q tho, so long as it doesn't make you stationary while charging, maybe if it worked more like vi's and xerath's Q, but i like its range as is, and the charge up range would feel like a nerf, yeah you could go over walls with it but it would lose its reactive power y'know?

also, when trying to justify buffing a champion, i wouldn't use champions that are blatantly overpowered or overtuned as examples as to why they need to be, those champions are outliers for a reason, and buffing everything around them is a bad idea, at least in my opinion.
