Nashor's tooth question

HoloFate··1 votes·679 views

I just have a technical question about the item.

Say on an ad champ you buy this item 3115 , will the passive effect of this item cancel out any AD damage your autos would originally deal, or is it a combination of your AD + the on hit (+15% of ap)? (For example if you built it on someone like Yi)

AD + On hit.

The Nashor's damage is a bonus on top of your normal damage, what you currently do isn't converted (the way Corki does). Basically, don't buy it if you are not stacking AP and also need attack speed. This is usually limited to something like Azir, Teemo, or Kayle.

Interesting, let's say you were stacking the AP, would you say something like wits end is possibly a better item for the job?

AP Champion that scales well with attack speed (like Teemo): Nashor.

AD Champion that scales well with attack speed (like Shyvana or Vi): Wit's End.

Although it really isn't a core item; only something I would get if the enemy has lot of Magic damage. I'd probably get item 3153 over it in most cases.

Nashor's Tooth is already very much a niche item, and Wit's End is even worse. If you need the MR stats from it you're better off splitting your purchases into multiple items with what you need. I think AP Warwick can use Wit's End effectively, but I don't think I've seen a WW on the Rift in a year and a half.

Hopefully that will change come January/March.

I've had some reasonable success using it on AP Ezreal, but the majority of the games don't really last long enough for me to build it. Something like:

item 3146 item 3003 item 3100 item 3115 item 3285 item 3020

But alot of the games I've had, by the time I finish gunblade/arch staff/boots/lich bane the game is closer to over. Anyway it's interesting, but void staff might be better depending on the game.
