Ryzes q should not do 1000+ damage

{quoted}

And in return, Ryze's ult has no damage, and no passive stats such as some others have, and has no effect against the enemy

they shoved an entire kits damage into damage and opened up an ulty slot

Let's math

according to the wiki, Ryze q does 185 + 45%AP + 3% bonus Mana in damage

Spell fluxes damage multiplier on his Q caps a 100% at max rank.

So A Q with the Flux buff would deal 370 + 90%AP + 6% bonus mana.

Arch angels offers 1000 mana, and 80AP and the 3% mana to ap ratio. RoA offers 100 AP and 400 mana when fully stacked.

That would be 1400 mana, 3% of that would be 42 extra AP from the bonus mana (not including Ryzes base mana) giving us 222 AP

Which would bring the damage to, 370, + 200 + 84 = 654 calculated before defenses

if we Added a Morello's, we would have 100 extra AP and 400 extra mana. giving us 280 + 1800*.03 = 334AP

making it 370 + 300 + 108 = 778 damage, Again before resistances.

Now if you factored in his passive, it would only result in a 16% increase in his maximum mana.

Conclusion, Ryze basically can't achieve that level of damage without at least 3 items. And probably at least level twelve, since we were factoring max ranks in both his Q and E. And given that he relies on Flux to amp his Q damage means he's not doing that damage with a single spell.

yes he is. you wasted ur time with that math lol cu he did 1200 damage to me with one q. The deathrecap dont lie

He'a not lying. I have seen a Ryze Q deal 1000 damage or so. Not saying it's OP, he just isn't lying.
