Is it safe to say that Protobelt needs nerfs as well as Rylai's

It's way too cheap

Its cooldown is way way too short considering the CD on flash. its always up.

Also does it still do more damage if mulitple projectiles hit the same target?, because that seems super abusive.

It's obviously not that abusive, if you can't even say if it's being abused [slayer-jinx-unamused]

I should of just said it and waited for someone to correct me instead of being uncertain about it.

Ah its 20% damage if hit by multiple bolts I actually looked it up this time, still a ton of damage when you do it right on top of someone. why not just have it one hitting is all you get hit with no need for aditional bonuses.

the damage is the abusive part

it can deal a lot of damage if you get protobelted point blank its almost 100% ap its quite ridiculous

an appropriate nerf would be to make additional bolts deal no damage

but then malicious mortal is gonna complain that mordekaiser needs it in order to be able to play the game

Mordekaiser doesn't even build Protobelt everygame. It's good, but it's not necessary.

75 - 150 ⇒ 30 - 120 Fire Bolt Base Damage 35 ⇒ 20% Fire Bolt AP Ratio

Most of its slot value is in the CDR and dash itself anyways. It's not exactly fair that whatever it sacrifices in AP is made up for with an active granting scaling damage and mobility.

i agree... probelt needs to be nerfed.

Maybe substituting some stats for mana would be nice? Then some champions who don't use mana won't benefit as much from building it.

Back to item 3001 zzzzzzzzzzz

Still haven't nerfed that yet.

The minirework did it's toll and nerfing that would lead to people going for the next cheapest AP utility item (or more Yasuo, yay)

AirKingNeo1 votes

The minirework buffed the item's MR buy a ton, making the item a first buy in AP vs AP matchups. All the time.

I've never seen that happen before. Honestly. I have seen a negatron cloak rush but that's another matter entirely.

Why nerf a dash smaller than Vayne tumble and barely doing any damage if the enemy gets 1 mr item.

If Protobelt gets nerfed, hopefully Vladimir gets some compensation, especially since building item 3065 first item is no longer viable and item 3152 is now his new standard first item.

I am the only one who never uses Protobelt?

It is not that it is a bad item

The problem is that I fuck up everytime I use it, or I forget to activate it at all (some people don't use Zhonya for that reason)

AirKingNeo1 votes

Yeah, +200 gold cost, activate distance raised, damage lowered. It's suppose to be a dash item, not a shotgun.
