mobi boot thought

if you deal damage as melee it should bring you down to 45ms and to 25ms if you receive damage.

so say I'm talon and w someone at a distance instead of having 25 ms, id have 45. Puts me at an equal _footing _ against anyone with 45ms.

just a thought.

no one else thinks that mobis are a bit underwhelming next to item 3009 atm.

perhaps we could also test what its like if the boots gradually gain ms on pbe. or what if they only get 105 ms if near an enemy when out of combat. by near i mean like within a pretty decent area, maybe a bit smaller than nocturne ult.

this way boots won't be op in terms of its homeguard benefits. but still retain its assassin potential.

Nope....mobis have advantages. They might not be all that great, but making them work in combat if you can kite isn't the way to go with them. They're more for split pushing/roaming/map control/junglers who want to gank faster. If you want in combat movement, go item 1300/item 1305/item 1325 Or build item 3044 items. Or item 3046 Lots of choices for in combat ms. Mobis aren't meant for that.

If they really want to buff them they could make in combat with minions/monsters not count, or not count for 'in combat' for as long. (Need to be out of combat for 5 seconds to gain 105 ms, if only in combat with minion/monsters- only need 3 seconds to be 'out of combat.')

very little of what i'm suggesting changes their in combat stats. your not very much in combat if no one touched you. the way I see it thats like getting a swish in basketball. you managed to hit the enemy without them returning fire.

ya your suggestion about combat with monsters/creep did cross my mind also. wouldn't mind testing it either, mobis have been largely untouched for long time and don't see much use now. usually when things arent broken dont fix it. but i think they are deprecated from when they were first created the state of league has changed considerably since.

Another interesting angle that could be looked into is having it such that when mobi boots are in an out of combat state, that other ms boosting items not stack with it. so like item 3742 item 3142 item 3512 wouldn't exceed 105 ms.

there's a bit of price overlap in terms of paying for stats but itd be like buying item 3078+ item 3071, both have item 3044 but are still worth buying together,
