*and riot steadily nerfed all the other overly-efficient items

That's right, folks. Nerfing is the answer to every balance problem.
it's my first day

QQ me a river. Nerfing other items was correct and nerfing Philostone is the right way to fix this current imbalance.

In the meantime, run 0 Mp5 and rush double philostone on all laners with mana. Thank me later.

Step 1) Make philo stone hyper cost effective
Step 2) Nerf heart of gold
Step 3) Make philo stone build into tenacity item

????

Step win) Philostone on everyone

more evidence of philo stone being OP

1) 800g to build philo stone, sells back for 400g
2) upgrade to Eleisa's miracle for 400g, sell back for 840g
3) net gain 40g (assuming you were selling the philo stone anyway)

You upgrade and then sell it for extra money? Hilarious. Are there any other items like that?
If you have a good reason to disagree with the above, please tell me. Thank you.

nope, it's the only one that works that way. It works out like that since doran's and gold/10 items sell for 50%, while other items sell for 70%. The other gold/10 upgrades are too expensive to net profit.

Why would they name it a Philosopher's Stone if it didn't have gold/10?

Also according to LoL wiki it has had gold/10 before Sept of 09.

I certainly had gold/10 when I started LoL, but that only was like half a year ago...

Guess I actually might dig up my Regrowth opening on Ashe again. It's not exactly good against burst though (roamers!). I was using armor seals and MP5L glyphs lately, so that would then change to MRL glyphs which is at least some extra safety.
I wonder how it will fare.
If you have a good reason to disagree with the above, please tell me. Thank you.

My team got mad at me when I bought my fourth Philosopher's Stone.
But why?
