How to make lethality function properly

1. Make it apply before % penetration in damage calculation !!
2. Lower the AD values on lethality items !!
3. Increase ad ratio on abilities only for intended users, nerf base damage if and where needed !!
4. Make the out of combat movement ramp up deadmanpslate style !!
5. Shared active/passive cool downs hextech style for the lethality items make them 40 seconds like hextech as well !!
6. Profit!!!!

Really it's that simple

For context higher ad ratio's makes both the lethality items more interesting for the intended users and makes them less attractive for abusers. these higher ad values might make other items more interesting as well Global utility actives/passives will help a lot too no more 9k movespeed spellshield ward disable bullshit pick one use that. Ramp up on the out of combat movement gives other champions the ability to catch up if the assassin gets caught out of position and is tagged by damage. they already have mobility allowing for escapes and by then they are too fast to get too, this ramp up should remedy this a bit.

As for penetration stacking making flat pen apply before % pen makes it generally weaker But the lower AD helps a lot too here. Since there will be less raw damage after the armor is penetrated. Having more globalized utility also helps prevent penetration stacking on the intended users since they might want a different item then just penetration like possibly a maw for extra defense or a deaths dance for more general defense and to stall their death a bit if neccessary.

So you see this should for the most part fix both the current strength of lethality on abusers without really making it bad for the intended users and making penetration stacking overall less efficient and desired giving other champions, namely those who do buy a defensive item or 2 a little more breathing room rather then getting oneshot all the time due to having no effective armor.

Yes this does require some pretty major work but it should have been done this way in the first place during the assassin update
