As my brother was attempting to jungle with Hecarim, somehow, he gets himself executed for about 3 times til level 7-10. I guess Hec's sustain isn't too strong comparing to the buffed jungle monsters. So here is what I suggest, a small tweak on his W monster sustain:
W- Spirit of Dread
Old Healing Cap- 80 / 120 / 160 / 200 / 240 (+ 80% AP) New Healing Cap- 100 / 135 / 170 / 215 / 240 (+80% AP)
Hope Riot would at least apply this change.
Vore Monster1 votes23/7/0 with flat armor seals gets Hecarim through the jungle for a first clear to buy the upgraded machete. He has no real trouble clearing to what I've done, no executions, just solid clears.
Kowe The Ewok1 votesI believe Hecarim needs fixes beyond that. Ever since the removal of Shurelia's and FoN his viability dropped a lot with receiving compensation. Hell, he's supposed to be THE mobile jungler. His kit, his lore his passive - everything points so it. Yet his E has only 3s duration and 24s cooldown, while a shaman with identity crisis (Udyr) gets a 3s speedboost on a 6s CD with the ability to stun-train a whole enemy team.
Hecarim really should get his mobility fixed in order to live up to his concept.
ValyrianBlade1 votesI thought his e was 4 seconds? I could be wrong there even though I play him a lot. His e has a 24 sec cooldown at first rank, but only 16 sec at max rank. With 40% cdr he has a 9.6 sec cooldown on it, meaning (if it's maxed and 40% cdr) hecarim can pretty much charge nearly half the time.
I've also managed clears with 21/0/8 masteries (I'm only level 29) with 2 MS quints, ad marks, armour seals, and mr per level glyphs.
That all said, I'm in no way claiming he couldn't use a buff. He's not the best jungler out there, I still like him though and he's still my go to jungler pick.
BeatzBoyFTW1 votesNo, I'm talking about his W, not his E. His W is that healing thingy while attacking enemies, and is limited while attacking monsters. I prefer if they would boost his early game healing cap, he would sustain a lot better.
