EPT[Patch 4.9] RIP Kha'Zix General Discussion - Page 84
| Forum Index > LoL General |
Alright, we're going to call it a day with all the Thorin drama, guys. I figured if it was about SI, onGamers, TSM, etc, it had some relevance to League but somehow you guys managed to devolve the discussion into an issue about race of all things. Enough is enough. Let's move along now. -NeoIllusions | ||

heros I'm targeting as possibly buffed by Essence Reaver: Jayce, Varus, Graves, MF?(haven't played enough new mf where her mana costs are much lower, it might not matter), GP | ||

Essence Whatever > Brutalizer > LW, shockblasts all day ezpz. I think it's a cool item though. I think there's a huge subset of champions who want AD, CDR and mana regen who will be interested, including but not limited to Jayce, Yorick, Quinn, Talon, Urgot, etc. I don't see it being so much a bot lane thing, though. What ADCs really need constant mana regen? | ||

You still waste money on getting mana instead of on an actual item.It is 50 ad and 10% ls for 2500 gold.A tear would slow your build less and give you roughly the same mana.Like sure the 10% cdr is decent but not really that much. Now on champs like pant/jayce it should be pretty good. | ||

basically my guess will be it comes down to how shitty/good BT is after the patch, and if using this as a replacement is an option | ||

Actually I just thought about how the item really affects ADCs tho. Current ADC core items are BT, Shiv and then last whisper. Shiv is more of a filler item for pushing power and the attack speed, the crit being more negligible than anything. Right now, with a lot of top tier ADCs being caster based (excluding TF builds and BotrK rushers), an early essence reaver, BT, then LW is probably way better. Essence gives a lot more during laning phase, and is probably comparable in pushing speed with the added CDR and mana return. With the slight buff to zerk greaves along with the some attack speed runes Im pretty sure we can flat out ignore the loss of attack speed from shiv anyways. The crit is obviously negligible on caster ADCs, who would recieve a higher DPS buff with the added 50 AD compared to the crit and occasional lightning damage. What Im saying is that instead of straight out replacing BT, its just going to replace as a first buy item and replacing static shiv as a core item | ||

Now on champs like pant/jayce it should be pretty good. Like, 50 AD is worth 1550 gold based off of our new and improved BF sword. Is 10% lifesteal, 10% CDR and mana regen worth 1000 gold? I think so. I think it's a super cost efficient first item. If anything, I think its problem will more be how well it translates into late game fights, where you won't get much mana regen from autos during sieges. | ||

It is cost efficient but that isn't the problem.The problem is it sets you back 2500 gold for a useless stat-mana.It isn't a good item by itself because it delays your real items with crit. | ||

the other half just have good burst damage instead or malphite who's the ultimate champ because he can have high DPS (40% AD and free tiamat WTFFFF better already than all adcs) high tankiness (40% armour and attack speed slow and 10% hp shield every 6s WTFFFFFFFFFFF) and good cc (infinity range aoe knockup +damage +slow+speed up WTFFFFFFF) malphite biggest hard carry in the game | ||

You're going to build it on mana reliant AD casters and assassins. Also probably Gangplank so you can Q everything forever. | ||
