Simple enough concept here. They just changed 
to build out of 
. However, Riot forgot to enable Wicked Hatchet for Howling Abyss. You can still buy Lightbringer, but you can't buy the Hatchet to build up into it. The recipe on Howling Abyss right now might as well be 
+ 1550 gold.
Either make Lightbringer for HA build out of something else, or enable the Hatchet on the map.
JedditeFTW1 votesYeah, it does. But a better idea is reverting Lightbringer back to its previous build/stats. If Riot wants to incorporate Wicked Hatchet into ARAM/Howling Abyss, fine. Just don't wreck a perfectly viable item (Lightbringer) to do it.
Just another example of the zero consideration that goes into ARAM/Howling Abyss. LOL e$ports LOL.
Zielmann1 votesI actually don't mind the modified stats on lightbringer. It's actually something I could see wanting to build now and again. And it's definitely not bad for stats to throw on top of the stealth detection that it offers. The old one felt like it was nothing special. At least this one has an extra little niche to it.
I was just pretty surprised a couple games ago when I was up against a Teemo and was playing Miss Fortune. I had decided I should pick up Lightbringer to help with the shrooms. Couldn't afford the whole thing, but was really confused when I couldn't buy the hatchet to build into it later on. Likely just an oversight on Riot's part.
