Riot may have ninja fix'd it by now, or not. | ||

When your trading power is heavily centered around the scenario where you have 4-5 Ferocity, scaling CDs which increase the frequency of having 4-5 Ferocity is more important than a token amount of extra damage on Q. Though TBH, even in lane, it might be better to max W for insta-clearing power. That and a 60 armor/MR steroid also wrecks trades, particularly on people that have to commit to it. The advantage of W max isn't just the tankiness and wave clear, but that both your damage and defense are invested in the same ability. If you max anything else first you have to choose between damage and defense, weakening your trades. That W is also magic damage helps because it prevents your opponent from simply grabbing armor to counter you.

So if you have Infinity Edge a Headshot will add 62.5% bonus damage on a crit rather than 50%. It's interesting and odd but not particularly significant. | ||

I can't even imagine how they could have coded it to come to that unintended result. | ||

i could see maxing w first in lane maybe for stronger trades, but in the jungle i will stick with q first. there is not one 'right' way to play any champ. if w first works for you, then great. q first works for me. | ||

(Innate): Riven's abilities charge her blade, causing her to do 5 / 7 / 9 / 11 / 13 / 15 (+0.5 per bonus attack damage) bonus physical damage on her next autoattack. Riven can store up to 3 charges, and will only expend one at a time. http://leagueoflegends.wikia.com/wiki/Riven Solomid.net's guides seem to NEVER have accurate ability info. (that's not even an issue of updating the info, it was NEVER that high.) I know its not that high but i see that on like every guide, cause that'd be kinda broken if it was like that lol | ||

Well it is fun to troll with builds like that sometimes. Like i usually go wriggles wits ionic zekes on Warwick when i play him. I think that builds got some kind of merit tho cause i always do pretty amazing | ||

It's unintuitive, but the equation that's used for calculating a Critical Strike's damage must look something like: Total Damage = Base Damage * Base Crit Modifier * (1 + Crit Damage Modifier / 2) So with Infinity Edge it looks like: Total Damage = Base Damage * 2 * (1 + 50% / 2) Total Damage = Base Damage * 2 * (1 + 25%) Total Damage = Base Damage * 2 * 1.25 Total Damage = Base Damage * 2.5 Caitlyn's Headshot fits into the equation like so. Total Damage = (Base Damage * 2 + Headshot Bonus) * 1.25 Total Damage = (Base Damage * 2 + 50%) * 1.25 Total Damage = (Base Damage * 2.5 + 62.5%) It's weird, but that's how one can make sense of it.

You get 2.5 AD scaling on empowered Q whether it's rank 1 or rank 5. All you're getting out of investing in Q is little extra damage and attack speed. W you can actually AoE clear the small camps, chain Ws together for higher uptime on your defenses, tower dive, and sustain yourself in the jungle. | ||

1 sec CD/45 damage/10 armor+mr and 1 sec CD/45 damage/5% slow are pretty normal per-rank scaling | ||

Something like this. Vayne's Tumble adds on to the base damage before crit scaling too. I'm just surprised Corki passive seems to be as well since I thought it added the passive calculation at the end. | ||

Improved ferocity regeneration, improved resists, improved CD, improved camp clearing, quicker sustain. Just my humble opinion. It is better. Especially in the jungle, it does more damage per level AND hits every creep in the camp. It isn't even close the difference in speed comparing W max to Q max in the jungle. Only way leveling Q is better is is you hitting Q three times for every W... which is literally impossible in the jungle, and after level 2 of W it is impossible in lane too just based on the cooldowns of the two. Not saying that Q isn't good, but I'd much rather use a level 5 W-> lv1 QeQ(255m+(60+(3.5ad))p) than lv1 W->lv5QeQ(75m+(260+(3.5ad))p). The damage you deal is like identical either way just with W max you do half magic damage and half physical damage making it harder to itemize against you in lane, and gives you a stupid amount of free resists meaning you won the trade much harder. | ||
