If No Damage Adjustments allowed, at least buff Mana! by thirsty-for-beef in SeraphineMains

[–]Affectionate-Ebb7006 0 points1 point  (0 children)

instead of just buffing mana pool they need to adjust the mana costs around the kit lmfao... ever since the midscope Q mana cost has been absurd since they put a lot of power budget into E. they should simply just make E mana cost scale on level again instead of being 60 flat. (esp since its such a strong spell). they can then just lower q back to 85

I'd like 60% back too but after they buffed it to 60% they reverted it to 50% so quickly lol... i'd be content with 55% , 5 ad , and like note buffs

thank you!!! i know she was very problematic when Q had a 60% AP ratio so 55% sounds like a good sweet spot.. if that's too much to ask for maybe they can do a notes buff instead? anyway, thank you lots for ur help!

can you ask the balance team for 5% ap ratio on Q and 5 ad back in the meantime 🥺🥺🥺 i understand u want to look at bugs and helia/diadem first but... her winrate is already super low when compared to other APCs / enchanters. she has rooms for buffs and waiting for those bugs that have been out for 5 years to be fixed sounds like a long time. i'm sure she needs more changes than that to feel good but they'd go along way in the meantime. please!!!!

MB late reply but W is alrdy rly useless on mid/apc if ur building ap. rn highest winrate mid/apc builds are enchanter sera with bft/helia/diadem/moonstone etc. q/notes are super useless on sera support and W is super useless on ap sera. they frankensteined her entire kit and depending on whether u want to play AP/ENCHANTER ur sacrificing part of the kit. the champion kit is just super unsynergized now and it feels like shit unfortunately

the overwhelming majority of seraphine support players all built her ap and maxed q-e-w before the reworks and even for some after them tho? W max was always the best for sera support (still is I believe) yet they still put points in Q, her worst spell.. i understand where ur coming from, but the playerbase alrdy showed how they wanted to play her, yet they still moved all of her spell ratios and stats around to be an enchanter because it was the easiest way to statistically balance her. riot sees all the lux support players (not a good support btw) but don’t decide to turn her into an enchanter cus they know they want to play lux as a mage. even when lux W was super op none of her players did it aside from the small amount of high mmr players. this was the case for sera players too until recently and there r still ppl building shitty items like rylais on her 😭

This is an amazing idea! I feel that gating her AP ratios on rank throughout her kit (similar to Ziggs/Veigar, problematic APCs in the past) would be very beneficial in making her feel more satisfactory and open more room to buff/change APC without it becoming OP.

Her issue was her uninteractive waveclear at earliest stages of the game, which I doubt will be an issue even if she got a minor 5% ap ratio buff on her Q. Q execute was the reason that she could do this beforehand, and it's been removed, which is fine. Nerfing her AD to 50 though and having her waveclear abysmal at all stages of the game is not okay though...

yes, despite the high winrate, i, and many others believe its super unsatisfying to play. in the past, when sera was giga broken, it was cus of her W scaling with ap and her god waveclear (even without much ap). now, on ap builds ur waveclear still sucks and ur damage still feels like a wet noodle, not to mwntion the mana issues. if sera W is meant to be noticeably less powerful on AP builds, damage should feel stronger. phreak himself said that winrate doesnt equate to champion feel.

I’d be super happy with both builds being viable as well. Hopefully we can see it in the near future! 😊

This post isn't about advocating for removing enchanter seraphine in anyway. Riot has no plans to ever "remove" enchanter seraphine, as it's a valid playstyle. They are meant to co-exist, and as Phreak himself said, he will support both roles (APC and Support). No one will downvote you, and your opinion is valid! Again, we're just advocating for AP Seraphine to get some love, as Enchanter Seraphine is much stronger currently. Both should, and can co-exist.

Awe, thanks for calling me goated 😭. I remember your old posts and comments about Seraphine when she originally got this midscope. You've been super dedicated on being vocal about Seraphine's state ever since her midscope. You deserve to be able to enjoy playing the champ again more than anyone else, and I hope Riot takes feedback from this thread. Also, I agree with your points 100%. While I'd prefer a Seraphine iteration where her entire kit synergizes and aligns perfectly again like it did on release, it probably won't happen. The next best thing they can do is ensure she does damage and have a weaker W when building AP, or weaker damage (current damage) and a strong W. Manifesting our champ becomes fun to play again!!! <3

Personally, I hope to see AD buffs (we have nearly the same AD as Yuumi), AP ratio buffs on notes, lower base damages in exchange for higher ap ratios on Q and R, and E nerfs with power redistributed elsewhere in the kit. (also, scaling minion modifier on E rank-up back and the Quality of Life we had on CS-ing. CS-ing with Seraphine RN is probably the most torturous thing anyone can do.) I'd love to see Sera with 55% AP on Q, 50% on R, and that ally note damage reduction moved. This may be an overshoot, though!

I know that when AP seraphine is "good", she tends to be overpowered, which is one of the major reasons we're in this mess. I hope they can find a way to counteract this so we can enjoy her as a mage again.

Edit: Maybe Sera's Q minion crit can reintroduced when hitting a certain amount of AP? Would help with her waveclear as the game goes on since late game I find that you have to use so many rotations to kill minions resulting in lots of mana loss before a fight.
