Conqueror is a Bit Busted On Melee Champs

Last game the enemy Tryndamere got 10k bonus true damage from Conqueror. In just one fight, Conqueror would do 1200 true damage. I think thats a nit bit much. You gotta remember there is no way of countering True Damage other than to build health items. And even then it doesnt help much.

I just find it odd how Conqueror can do 4k+ damage a game on melee champs when the adc's keystone does about 1300 if that.

The numbers look bigger than they are. Because it shows the full 20% true dmg, and not what the difference is between what it otherwise would have done.

Say you auto attack for 100, against someone with 50 armor. That should reduce the dmg by 25%. So without Conquerer you deal 75 dmg on that auto. Now you deal 80% normal dmg, so 75% of 80, which is 60. And then 20% of that 100 as true dmg. So 20. You deal 80 dmg instead of 75. Instead of tracking the 5 extra dmg you did, it notes it as 20 true dmg.

You can see how that makes it look like a lot more than it really is doing.

how in the world is trynd doing 6k damage in a teamfight. Thats like 100-0 3 people on the enemy team without any help. Thats without counting the first 4 seconds.

And then you´re reminded of the %hybrid pen version Riot considered.

Y'know, the version that you would actually be able to itemize against, would be miles healthier, but never made it into PBE?

There is no way to passively defend against true damage, but there are ways to actively defend against it. Kite, CC, and straight up avoidance completely negates not only true damage, but all damage.

The only time I've disliked conqueror so far was when Tryndamere got 5 crits in a row with just his passive to 2v1 a gank with silly amounts of true damage. But lets be honest, that is just crit being retarded and not really conqueror specific.
