Face of the Mountain should trigger on any nearby minion killed

[just so there's no confusion, this is just the last upgrade in the Targon line]

Just like the Coin line, respecting the 4 charges of course.

Problem is that in the mid to late game, you don't get the chance to proc FotM...like...ever.

If you keep the execute but make it work on any minion death in the vicinity, i'd have less incentive to murder my teammates when i approach a wave with 2 cannon minions just for a Cait to instaclear it with Q.

Best fix would be to increase the execute up to 75% hp of a minion for final upgrade. Or give it an active which mark a minion so when it died, it trigger the charge. But I doubt an item can have 2 actives.

If coin system applied, the range need to be smaller, unless you want to get randomly ranged minion which offer less gold. Worst of all, all charges triggered before you need healing. Those charges are there so you can carefully use it for healing. Plus I doubt anyone ever want to trigger it on ranged minion unless by accident or situation demand it.

If I were you, I'd just sell it.

In my opinion, the only support item worth upgrading to tier three is the coin, since the movement speed boost is much better than an aoe slow or one ally shield.

A good replacement for FotM is item 3190 since it gives health, MR, and a shield for all nearby allies.

Not saying that FotM isn't a good item, I just wish it'd have the gp10 passive like item 3096 and item 3303 get early game for the very reason you've stated.

The problem with this is that you wouldn't be able to save the charges if you want to use them for heals.
