Can we give evelyn back some of her damage?

At the moment she just gets trucked in the jungle. While she does have some of the faster clears in the game, she's also one of the squishiest. Even after you've built your second tier item, the amount of damage she takes is pretty high.

At the same time, I also would like some ideas on a jungle route for her. The issue seems primarily around the damage she takes.

So perhaps ranger blade or poacher's blade, and then the route would be

Blue buff-->frog--->wolves

then back

red buff--> gank?

Not sure, but the damage she takes relative to her clear speed leaves her very low unless you buy several potions after each back, something that some other junglers don't have to deal with because their damage hasn't been gutted repeatedly, because of her lack of sustain.

frog/krugs- blue/red- wolves- other buff- recall.

smite frog/krug as soon as it spawns, it will be ready for the second buff you get. use stalker smite to help gank as often as you can.

Personally, I feel Evelynn needs a complete rework again, they tried taking her in too many directions at once, then nerfed the best aspects of all of those directions, leaving her as an invisible shell of everything...

She was an assassin (after her rework), they nerfed it (rightfully so, was pretty OP), people started playing her in the jungle as a bit of a bruiser, so they embraced the bruiser. Then they nerfed the best parts of assassin. Then they changed her E to physical damage for GAWD knows what reason, then they nerfed her bruiseryness... So now she's a tanky damageless assassin initiator... or... something...???

She's not in thaaaaat bad a place. There's a reason her stats aren't as good as some other junglers. Stealth. Her passive is more or less a global passive that forces enemy teams to spend extra gold for pinks and puts constant pressure on all lanes cuz nobody knows where she is. It's hard to quantify the effect her passive can have on the game, but it does need to be taken into account when balancing her stats.

Teams should always buy pinks early regardless of who the other team's jungle is...

I love how stealth is such a gamebreaking thing these days, while back in Season 1 everyone dodged when you picked Evelyn... Well, until this idiot Sorakabot shared how to play her and she suddendly went from "Trollpick" to "most broken champ since Beta TF!!!" over night...

I hope Evelynn will get heavy rework thet will fix her. She's Assassin type, yet built mostly as tank/bruiser... With her R totally out of assassin class place.. It's almost like playing ap garen @_@
