I'm no smite player, but I always wanted to play it so I watch some smite videos along with league

I noticed they have some interesting magic damage items that can inspire great item concepts for ap item options for Mages (and AP Assassins)

bancroft's talon

This seems like a great sustain item for Mages

Granting 100 magic damage, 15% magic lifesteal and 150 mana

And has a Passive that grants you bonus Magic damage and magic life steal scaling with missing health (caps at 100 magic damage and 20% magic lifesteal once you reach 25% of your max HP or Below)

Translating to league and toning it down a bit we can have it along the lines of

80 AP 5% Spell vamp 150 mana

Unique Passive - gain AP and spell vamp scaling with your missing health (caps at 40 AP and 3% spell vamp when at 25% max HP or less)

shaman's ring

Interesting item, not sure how to describe

100 magic damage 10% movement speed

It also has a Passive where every time you deal 100 damage to enemy gods(champions) gain a stack, at 50 stacks this item transforms and your abilities now debuff enemy gods(champions) hit making them take 10% increased damage from you for 5 seconds

We could keep the Passive unchanged but make it unique, as for stats

75 AP 8% MS

Sounds reasonable

We had a spellvamp/AP item once, it was called Will of the Ancients, and it make Vlad impossible to balance.

As long as Vlad exists, spellvamp cant.

Gunblade is as close as it can safely get, and it fits a weird group of champions.
