@RIOT: Could you please accept the Ancient Coin rework was a failure and just change it?

I dont even care if you just change it back or change it to be totaly different, but as is right now, its just a failure of an Item.

It was already the least popular choise before the quest updates, but right now its just garbage.

Its either or , even supports that would normaly choose over will now buy the second one, just because of how bad the coin Items became.

The problem are actually so obvious that it isnt even hard to point them out.

1. The coin pickup system is a bad mechanic conbsidering the type of champion who would buy the item. Relic shield suffers the same problems, but the champions buying it are normaly tanky enough to handel a shot or two, but Coin CHampion are squishies who want the sustain the item provides. The change from HP sustain to mana sustain was kinda ok, even though I really miss it, but that just means changing your playstyle. But now you are forced to get harassed if you want the money or the mana... and its super easy to preict where you are going to be...

2. The quest reward is useless. Plain and simpel. We are talking about Support champions here, Champs that are build around being lower level than everyone else. One more skillpoint is no powerspike for them. I mean, seriously, lets just compare the rewards: : A nice passive shield, that adds to your sustain and is pretty easy to refresh after a trade. : A nice Speedboost after you hit an enemy, allowing you to either chase him down or get back to safety before you take damage yourself : You can give one of your abilities another point a bit earlier... Useless in lategame and meh in midgame (see above for reason)

3. The stats it gives just... suck. 5% CDR is nearly useless that early into the game where you are heavily gated by your mana pool (and no, the coin drops dont change it enough), so basically the only stat you get from the item is the 2 Gp10... Which makes you even more desperate for these coin drops, which are on top of it a RANDOM MECHANIC! And it doesnt get better when you upgrade it. Hell, gives you the same effective stats as a freaking + 10% CDR.

So in short:

1. Coin Drop is a bad mechanic
2. The reward is useless
3. The stats are bad.

There isnt even a real way to fix this broken Item. Either put it back to the state it was before with a new Quest, or rework it completely.
