Trinity Force and Essence Reaver is 40% CDR, 40% Crit, Spellblade, mana sustain

WTBeGirl100EUhr··8 votes·3,288 views

Full Stats: 90 AD 250 Mana 5% Movement Speed 40% Critical Hit Chance 40% Cool-down Reduction 15% Attack Speed Critical strikes restore 3% of your maximum Mana pool. Basic attacks grant 20 Movement Speed. Kills grant 60 instead. Halved for ranged champions. After using an ability, your next basic attack deals an additional 200% base AD. 1.5s cooldown.

These two items seem to have a lot of synergy together. Reaver keeps your mana up so you can spam your stuff everywhere. They get you max CDR for maximum spammage, and 40% crit chance is nothing to sniff at. With the AD nerfs 90 AD is significant enough.

Just wondering who could abuse these. Hecarim Hecarim sounds somewhat viable, but probably has better things to be building than essence reaver since you want to get tanky. It sounds LETHAL on Ezreal Ezreal, Corki Corki or Jayce Jayce though. Mostly Ezreal Ezreal. The CANE Nasus feels again like Hecarim. In theory, sure. In practice he probably would much rather get tanky.

Lucian Lucian maybe?

Yorick would benefit from that, too, after Manamune, of course.

Ghouls. Ghouls everywhere. Oh boy I can't wait to deal with that.

The only problem is that rushing those three items on Yorick will cost exactly 10,000 gp with normal boots and no tank items. Kinda rough for the early-to-mid game.

You'd still have really good 1v1 potential though, so s'long as you split-push rather than trying to teamfight because you're just going to get blown up.

Is there a reason you'd need to get manamune? It's bought now primarily so he has mana to spam ghouls, no? Essence Reaver could replace it perhaps?

You'd still want a Tear for the mana, and having the extra AD through Manamune would help a lot.

Also, doesn't Essence Reaver only give mana on crits?

WTBeGirl100EUhr1 votes

Yes, but you have 40% crit chance to get that mana. It's only 3% max mana, so idk. Not a Yorick player.

Old Essence went well, but the new one isn't all that great to be honest. It's good for ones who get to AA often, but Yorick is so easily kited and his ghouls drain his mana very, very quickly since they have low burst, high DPS with relatively high mana costs for his mana pool and regen.

Can see Lucian liking this a lot, the dash paladin will return.

WTBeGirl100EUhr1 votes

I'm just thinking. Honestly IE => ER is a better path for most ADCs (including Lucian) I think, given that's still 30% CDR. Lucian often misses triforce procs due to how quickly you combo (triforce tends to favour low CD spells rather than abilty/AA/ability/AA combos).

Excitidly Insane1 votes

I don't think you can get the dash to below two seconds :p, but going in with a dash Q AA E AA then another dash should net at least 3 procs. After that if the target is still moving a barrage of bullets should do the trick and if that doesn't, AA dash AA for 2 more procs.

Of course, this would happen in a perfect world.

WTBeGirl100EUhr1 votes

I meant the E=>AA=>Q=>AA=>W=>AA=>E=>AA combo. Of course you can proc it every E. IDK, I have a PBE acc so I could test it but I'm far from an ADC player.

....fun time to be on PBE as a non-ADC player. At least I'm never stuck with the role.

Excitidly Insane1 votes

I'm only waiting for Graves. About time I dusted off PP and Riot skins.

Zair Umbras1 votes

IE+ER. The R doesn't scale off of AS and you want to weave your spells in between your AA's, so about 1ish attacks a second is usually good enough for him.

I would probably use ER on Lucian though. With the reworking of his ult to no longer scale with AS. A normal ADC build will become less effective. His dual blade build is also getting nerfed because of the BotRK nerfs. But this would be a big boon to a caster build. Which Lucian can use to great effect. (I'd argue better than Ez who proc's fewer autos thus fewer crits.

Zair Umbras2 votes

Ez is not as happy as you think since his Q doesn't crit. He actually has to dive in to throw in AA's. His 1v1 ability is pretty solid now, but I can't his poke is doing as hot as it was prior. Tri lost the AP and some AD to get that crit plus Essence also lost 15 AD while the Q can't proc the mana return.

On the other hand early game ezreal can build a lot more ad faster since you shouldn't need tear anymore. Building er and zeal or sheen will be a pretty powerful early spike for him

Zair Umbras1 votes

You... you buy a tear on him..? I get a Sheen, then go Essence, then finish TrinityPhreak, then BT, then LW. I never really have mana issues with the current ER and I poke a lot with the Q, but it does about 400ish with the Sheen and ER, giving me back 8-32 mana, based on how low I am, back and the Q costs a max of 40. Pretty easy to keep mana up.

Now I have issues if I try to poke a lot without having many things to directly AA to get a crit for the mana return.

Weird. Looked it up on Champion.GG and you're right... though those people have 7 kills to 5 deaths on average and 49% win rate. Essence Reaver typically gives more sustained damage and a lot of mana regen both in lane and out of lane. Manamune just seemed to never work out well. The tear by itself put your early game at such a hard disadvantage while not giving you too great of a mid-late game whereas the Essence is a great boost in damage all over the place.

I might be a bit weird then, but my scores with Ez speak for themselves to be honest.

Ezreal is already good with Triforce Essence reaver, this will only help him.

How about we take item 3078

and move it out of the game??

pls?

ShatoSummoner1 votes

That was the point. Those two are 100% meant to be built on champions like ezreal, corki, and lucian. The other champion essence reaver is kind of geared towards right now is caitlyn, because of the crit % and the changes to her abilities and how they work with her kit.

played it on the pbe. lucian is broken with these 2 items. if your dash is at rank 5 you can imagine what happens.

Forget TF. Essence Reaver will grant 3% of max mana on every crit. Muramana consumes 3% of your current mana to deal twice that in bonus physical damage on-hit. Need to regain tons of mana quickly? Grab Runaan's since the bolts now crit.

Hmm.......
