Rewrite Strength of the Ages

Bloodhawk95·Nov 23, 2015·2 votes·959 views

RIOT should rewrite the description for Strength of the Ages (Resolve keystone mastery), the description for it is a little bit confusing with how it works. "Large minion and monster that you or nearby allies kill grant you 20 and 10 health respectively (300 max). That first sentence is a little confusing and seems like it was written without proof reading it first to see if it was 100% clear how it works. Just my thoughts.

Yeah ikr thats confusing as f. like are they saying that large minion kills get you 20 hp and monster kills get u 10? your kills on monsters/minions get you 20 hp and assists get you 10? IDK wtf does " grant you 20 and 10 health" mean ? 30 hp?

Someone over at Riot needs to take grammar lessons...

Its entirely clear. The prior subject is "You or nearby allies."

Pretty obvious that its referring to that. Its you that needs the grammar lessons.

No it isn't clear because why does it say 20 and 10 health? Do you get 20 health for killing a monster, or 20 from an ally killing it? Do you get 10 health from killing a monster, or 10 from your ally doing it? Or do you get 30? The description isn't clear.

for me the prior subject is "large minions and monsters".

"that you or nearby allies kill" is a specification to those minions and monsters.

Thus "20 and 10 respectively" apply to "minions and monsters", not "you and allies".

For me it was pretty clear: large minions give 20 hp, monsters give hp.

Now that you mention it, it could also mean that kills give 20 hp and assists give 10 hp. But that is not the common interpretation of such a sentence structure and it would make less sense gameplay wise.

"that you OR nearby allies kill" "20 minions AND monsters"

pretty obvious.

You or allies; there's a differentiation. Minions and monsters, they're equal. 20 and 10 respectively; respectively creates a differentiation. One of these things is not like the other.
