basically what you are saying is now EVERY CHAMPION IN THE GAME CAN HAVE SATED DEVOURER. FOR 3600 GOLD. you dont need smite, you dont need to afk farm get this shit first item and while the 6 attacks will make it less reliable, there's nothing limiting ranged champions right now. just remove the phantom hit thing altogether. PLEASE.

ModWulf Helhammer1 votesExcept now we don't have the thing that makes phantom hit a problem in the first place, the AoE damage.

It is also weaker than the old rageblade (fewer stacks so less atk speed/damage as stack stats were not altered, only deals 15 non scaling damage on hit and no longer AoE effect) that takes longer to stack for most of the melee abuse cases. All while costing more.
Krinu1 votesI'm actually more worried about the change to make it not work on ranged champions.
The people it worked on - and arguably best - were the ranged hypercarries. Nobody really complained that Kog'maw with it and a bunch of AS items (hurricane, botrk, wit's end, etc.) could shred you, because it's freaking Kog'maw and that's his job. Same with Kayle - it wasn't a massive balance problem when she ran around with it, because her shtick is "I do no burst damage but if you try to win a sustained DPS contest you're going to lose. "
People complained most about it being the only damage item on melee champions (Yi, Xin, Shy) that took advantage of the high stack speed combined with Sated Devourer to be insanely powerful at the 20m mark.
IMO, they should make it 1 stack per attack on everyone.
