Sunfire cape falls off so hard (solutions)

Jigglypuff·Jan 16, 2018·1 votes·341 views

I know that sunfire cape is a very strong early/mid game item; however at around level 14 this item starts to fall off and become pretty much useless (aside from the stats) and you are better off having the deadmans active at this point in the game... I usually sell this item later in the game otherwise it will cause me to lose hanging on to it.

I would like to see the sunfire cape scale with level or at a certain level you can upgrade it with gold, or it upgrades after certain amount of damage is caused by it etc

thoughts?

It is meant to be a split pushing item and defensive damage option for tanks to shove waves. If you arent doing that then the item is exponentially worse.

Actually titanic hydra does that job 10x better, if you wanted to splitpush and be tanky and get your armor from something better like a frozen heart or iceborn

Titanic proves no Tank stats outside of a small health boost, so no it isnt better and many tanks cant even make use of that item. Not sure how maokai is gonna use a Titanic

Is their a way we can make rushing Sunfire feel as good as rushing Titanic Hydra in terms of winning lane? Like let's say a Shen is fighting into a Maokai and rushing Titanic, is there a way to make Sunfire first Maokai feel like he can realistically edge out the Shen? Or would that be too broken?

You auto attack.

sunfire is mostly good if you need wave clear and can't win a 1v1, so titanic becomes risky, if its any stronger it becomes incredibly toxic and you end up with tanks only ever building it first item, unless against ap
