I've been going rammus and it's very important that what I'm doing is correct. I tend to open boots first, then go into warmogs, and then into either thornmail or force of nature depending on how unbalanced my enemy's team is. If of their top three main damage dealers, 2 are AD, I go thornmail, if 2 ar AP then I get FoN. Is this right? Since I max Rammus W first, E second, does that give me the most survivability? (people do focus me). | ||

I've been starting boots, then wriggles, warmogs, and just going from there. he clears so insanely fast. just wondering which runes you guys are running on him, since i basically stopped going to solomid when i found out there was a TL LoL community  I've been running AS reds, armor yellows and quints, and mr/lvl blues. I'm fine with most of them, but I was torn on what's best for the quints slot. | ||

I find that rammus has an equally fast initial clear to udyr but is left with slightly more life. and i def do regrowth + pot, b for boots + philo, then prolly b again for oracles/hog or both. | ||

I've tried this and I feel like I kill jungle stuff really slowly and was just curious as to whether people feel like that's just the tradeoff for Rammus' gank potential or there's something I'm doing wrong (like I should be grabbing early level 2 W instead of early level 2 E or maybe that Wriggles is a better idea than people seem to think). | ||

Go Philo and HoG. Into Randuins and Reverie. After that is situational. Frozen Heart is good. Phantom Dancer is good. WQWE R>E>W>Q unless you gank at 3. Then go WQE. | ||

should I be running anything other than blue-wolves-wraiths-red-golems for an opening path? (keeping in mind that I'm unlikely to get a strong leash in normals What are the salient differences between item openings, e.g. - cloth 5 - vampiric - regrowth - boots Are Boots of Mobility the standard on Rammus? It seems like a lot of people in this thread run them. I assume 'need tenacity/mr, go mercs' is typical, but are Ninja Tabi ever worth it? It seems like they'd help his jungle quite a bit - more ad, more power to DBC, and less damage, both from armor and the passive (all jungle creeps do is auto attack), plus you can get them earlier. | ||

- Cloth 5 is obsolete more or less now. Since the new Jungle changes, most of the small camps don't hurt as much. Thus, you don't need the extra armor and hp regen. - Vamp Scept is a terrible opening. Rammus doesn't need Wriggle's and unless you're going Zeke's for some reason... - Standard opening is Regrowth. Ties back to weaker small camps in current jungle and you build Philo asap out of the Regrowth. - Boots are also acceptable. I never Boots 5. It's either Merc or Tabi for me. You build depending on enemy team comp. Ends up being Merc 90% of the time. | ||

Starting wolves, blue is better than blue, wolves because you can squeeze in second wolves after first wraiths. I personally do mobility boots but there is something to be said for mercs as well. Like Neo said, Mob boots are for when you want to gank a lot and get between lanes quickly. Tabi used to be bad, because dodges wouldn't proc your W. New Tabi is better, but not best. I think Mob or Mercs are your best bets. Mercs aren't really even ideal because IF the enemy team is CCing the damn Rammus, then your carries should rip them apart. I love the games when I get focused. Means the other team is screwed. | ||

I don't think rammus can simultaneously be a good jungler and a good midgame tank. I'm also starting to like wriggles on him since he clears so slowly. | ||

If you do have good warding, you can just counterjungle them when they go in yours and come out okay. It's also pretty easy to gank as Rammus to make up for lost jungle. | ||

Do you start off boots3 or regrowth1? Both seem like valid options, but is one the better choice? Do boots leave him too low? What runes should I use? Right now, I use armor yellow/red, scaling mr blue and ms quints, but I'm not sure if those are the best choice. Are the ms quints a good idea? Finally, what am I supposed to level as Rammus? His W offers more survivability and clear speed, but then you have low ganking power. E seems to take a while to be effective for ganks. Q gives a bit more damage and slow, but it also costs more. No matter what ability I would level, it seems like I'd be heavily decreasing his abilities to do other things. Leveling Q means less surviability and a longer time for E to be good. Leveling W means less cc altogether. Leveling E means less damage and survivability. Rammus just seems to be an extremely weird champion. I don't know many like him who can focus on certain abilities and have it completely change what they're able to do to such a degree. | ||
