Can someone clarify Remnant of the Watchers' Tribute pausing?

Afari··1 votes·268 views

I was using Remnant of the Watchers on a midlaner. And although i know about the V8.5 (March 8th) Hotfix (pausing Tribute stack generation when killing minions) i don't understand on what it depends how long it will be paused. Sometimes it pauses stack generation for like 10 to 15 seconds and then sometimes it pauses it for several minutes and additionally disable the passive 2g/10s. Can anyone explain it to me?

The pause depends on how many minions/monsters you killed; for every minion and monster you kill, it disables for 12 seconds. If you kill an entire minion wave (6 minions, or 7 with a cannon), the tribute and gold generation will disable for 72 seconds (1 minute + 12 seconds) or until you back, and will disable for 84 seconds (1 minute + 24 seconds) if you kill an entire wave of 6 minions + a cannon minion, again resetting when you back.

It was done to prevent laners from wanting to take support items.
