Getting tank supports faster gold *items*

Is there any way we can get tank supports some faster gold?

item 3302 Relic shield could help us. just give a it faster CD to get more minions last hit. if u do the start off with relic you get 2 minions as u get in lane and wait for siege minion to come to lane. now you cannot always get siege minion because some ADC's dont care and will take it for them selves. Now a tank support does all the hard work with little to no pay off.

Now I understand that this shares gold with a player by you but this could also have maybe a 2-5g reduction to the support. this item can be bad at the same time so dont think it can win over games. if ur just last hitting minions so fast all you are doing is pushing lane to fast. so the support and adc have to be able to know and keep up with wards for invades while the other team is stuck under tower. besides item 2049 wards run out fast. 1 in river 1 in side bush. leave 1 open and ur trinket.

As a support main going tank support is by far the slowest and kinda hardest champ to keep up with. While 90% of game the player base assumes they have to be a carry champ. Top and junglers included.

I hate being a tanky supp cause you wanna build a tank item to stop being melted but u also wanna get locket so your adc doesnt get melted and u wanna get anothet kind of tank item and it takes like 15 minutes for each especially when laning phase ends cause nobody lets you cs when they're pushing so fast and it takes forever to farm on your own

But i think they wont lower the cd cause then nontank supports can buy relic shield and buy items faster. It wouldnt be a great idea for them to be without ancient coin/spellthief's edge but carry supports would become so much stronger

Talisman gives armour now. Been giving it a spin on some tank supports, and it's nice having access to some mobility again. Plus getting that Talisman armour means rushing into a locket doesn't leave you feeling completely naked against the enemy carries :P

The Relic shield has equivalent gold income as the other two items. It has Gold per second, and you get the executes on top of it. Killing siege minions actually grants more gold than the Coin or Spell line grant with their passives.

Additionally, the locket isn't essential in lane unless you're against a heavy AP support like Morgana or Sona. You can easily rush the Face in any other circumstance and still get a good shield for your ADC.

I feel item 3303 than item 3098 does get more gold than item 3302, item 3069 I didnt see the update on this might give it a go.
