He should just buy 5th age instead of settling for the 2nd best 975 RP skin, imo.

e: Jungle Taric es #2 after Jungle Soraka.

Also, I just realized: There are two champions in the game with natural AP scaling on autoattacks, and both are OP as fuck.

Some of LP do this ocassionally.

We always win! Intrix ap mid janna, I play solo top or duo top karma, someone gets soraka and sona and someone else jungles taric or goes top lane taric. Ezpz. Alistar was used once but he doesn't REALLY count. Morgana doesn't count either. Karma is a little eh as well.

Lux definitely doesn't count!

Jax! .7 AP ratio on every third autoattack with no additional user input once he has his ult.

oh I guess Rumble kinda counts too, but I was thinking 'always on'. Is he still op?

Yeah i thought that you meant jax (since you didn't say anything about "starting passives" but wanted to troll you especially since rumble is underplayed nowadays, tho i think he IS op or close to being op)

Next patch is going to be the start of carry gunblade taric. It is going to be EPIC.

I will accept this, but note that they are both OP. Teemo OP taunt, Cho'gath OP big.

It is just a stat enhancement, but it's currently a ridiculously powerful one. Here's some common items on Jax and their HP equivalency:

Hextech Gunblade: 330 HP
Atma's Impaler (base HP): 114 HP -> 2 AD -> 6 HP (120 HP)
Rylai's Crystal Scepter: 160 HP
Guinsoo's Rageblade: 195 HP (Unstacked) / 291 HP (Fully Stacked)

Dunno what else is/can be good on him, but consider this normal build:

3x DBlade = (3)90 Health, 30 AD
Hextech = 330 Health, 60 AD, 75 AP
Atma's = 52 AD (2637) -> 156 HP -> 3 AD (55 AD) -> 9 HP (167 HP)

For buying just those items, Jax winds up with a total of 887 health, vs the 300 those 3 would totally grant. 587 is a whole lot of health - about 1.33 Giant's Belts. And that's with a half-'finished' build.

Edit: Yes, I know that that weighs against other champion's passives. But health is a tangible thing, and Jax is one of the few champions blessed with ability passives as well. Health is also unusually effective on someone with 20% dodge, 100 armor and 100+ MR who's building pure offense aside from his boots.

Completely irrelevant without considering his other attributes/skills/etc.

Let's consider a Blitzcrank with Triforce and Banshee's. That's 1605 mana at lvl 18. His passive basically gives him 803 HP pretty much every time he gets low. That's WAY stronger than Jax' passive.

You can't compare passives with each other and draw any conclusions. You ALWAYS have to look at the champion as a whole.
If you have a good reason to disagree with the above, please tell me. Thank you.

So I'm pretty new to LoL, only level 8. I've got good friends to play with, but I'm having trouble deciding which champion to buy first. I much prefer ranged characters, and I like having high damage output. They pointed me at Lux, Ezreal, and Brand. I've been playing Lux (she was free), and she's nice for the utility she brings, but she doesn't really seem to have a big damage ability. Maybe I'm just using her wrong? Or using the wrong build?

Are Ezreal and Brand worth buying, or should I wait until they're free to try them out? Or should I stick with Lux and get better?

def stick to free to play chars for a good while. you get to see a nice selection of the chars, and some are so expensive, if you waste any points on ones u end up not liking it will take forever to buy the char you do like.

Nowadays, I'd say that Brand is the stronger among these three.
But if you like ranged character with high damage, any ranged AD carry can do it (Ashe, Caitlyn, Tristana (free to get on facebook), Vayne, etc...).

But you don't think Lux is good as a mage type for damage? With her CC she seems good for team fights, but I obviously haven't played a whole lot.
