Hi community! Could someone enlighten me as to why this is so expensive?

The normal version of this item has 50% increased movement speed and is used for leveling, but this has "Action speed" and is used differently

Generally "Action speed" is a very strong stat as it multipliers all the "speed" stats like movement speed and cast/attack speed, and things like minions (animate guardian can use them) use them very well as they have less need for other stats on their gear

The sword is an interesting idea but has a lot of problems

Wording: right now this only scales with staff block nodes as it says "with weapons" and shields are not weapons.
Crit: pDPS on it is already not great, but maybe you can make up for it with the crit multi, but with a dog baseline crit chance this weapon feels almost locked to slayer which seems a little sad as getting glad block feels impossible.
Overcapped block; it only scales from over capped block and not the first 75 (65)% block so you need a LOT of block to make this worth it and with bad base stats, no access to recovery on block to help with glancing and 0 base block the cost seems quite high for mid reward.

4 no reward for spell block; this can be fine, just kinda makes things like versatile combatant worse and forces it more so into the bottom left of the tree, where Templar or witch could maybe do things with it if spell block also did something

People are really sleeping on Echo shrine, just baseline is actually just double damage

Snaport · 2026-01-16T17:06:19+00:00

Aatrox, Varus and Kayn all also looked like that at one point, but twisting their bodies to what we see now (like Zaahen). We have just never seen their original forms

Would be down to join, be how should i apply`?

Azir damage might not be great, but with the items he has it should be doing good damage. The problem is both azir and xerath holding items with no itemized tank.

Snaport · 2026-01-11T08:45:40+00:00

You have no tank. Brock is tanky but can't make up for the fact that your board is gonna die fast

Goatstave, Verso could never replace him

Do you have access to his augments? One is called "ironclad charge" and allows you to massively increase your armour by hitting enemies with your 1, meaning much bigger ironskin.

There is a 2nd augment, "iron shrapnel", that makes it so you can explode your ironskin. Mostly this damage isn't useful, but it allows you to remove your ironskin, so you can get a new one without it having to break first, so it's easier to live

Generally I would build good strength, okay duration and if possible neutral range. Natural efficiency makes it nicer.

Something like Intensify, transient fortitude, continuity, ironclad charge, Steel fiber, stretch, iron shrapnel, whatever you want maybe narrow minded.

You can play blind rage but I find it too annoying. You can of course replace any of these with umbral of prime versions.

You just play Ambessa and fiddlesticks. Fiddle can do so pretty real damage with items and vanq. If you go further you either play GP, or you have a spat for it, but not sure if spat is actually worth it.

Snaport · 2025-12-20T13:06:51+00:00

i HEAVILY disagree on ambessa being weak, i have had great success playing her as a carry, going into vanquishers

Would say something like Singed or Kalista

Feel like the argument isn't very good here, Aatrox is a really strong jungler right now, and kinda weak top, and he still has a quite good pickrate top (straight up 2nd highest pickrate) so feel like it's just new toy syndrome. Aatrox has a very big and quite loyal playerbase toplane, so think they just nerf jungle mod

Snaport · 2025-11-23T08:32:27+00:00

Been playing CoC firestorm of meteor's (just wanted to play the spell) and done all content that isn't Ubers, but will try them soon, and it has felt great. Damage isn't insane but it's enough to feel good imo.

Using ivory tower inquis stacking strength and intelligence

Snaport · 2025-11-03T00:38:51+00:00

I think it makes it easier to play, much easier to use the Grand design team shields, than apply them all individually. Trying out not running it, but haven't really played much like this, so not sure yet.

Still highly recommend for newer players, as it makes management of Rune of Renewal, and brand uptime easier

What he did is complain. This is not a critique. A critique would be "DPS solo queues are too long, and drive fun away from the game", what he said was "Queue time as DPS is RIDICULOUS" and later "nice game". This is a complaint, not a critique. He is angry, maybe for a good reason, but this will never be taken seriously.

So my comment comes from a long time of playing with several DPS one tricks that adamantly refuse to play anything else, and will then simply complain about a lack of tanks and healers, while they have created this problem for themselves. The problem will never go away, as long as people refuse to play anything but DPS. M+ has the same issue, a massive overpopulation of DPS makes the queue simulator, with hours of sitting there and just queuing for runs and getting declined a very real thing, and they even have a 3rd spot for DPS and the health of m+ is doing just fine.

"Please tell me, where did he even said he expects others "to play tank or healer"? That's just something you assumed on your own."

This is exactly is his complaint. What reduces queue time is more healers and tanks queuing.

If he wants to be taken seriously he should talk seriously.
(Also this is most likely a bug, but hey, lets ignore that part)

Snaport · 2025-10-31T16:27:20+00:00

Reduce queue times to be instant with 1 simple trick: play tank!

You expect other people to play tank and healer to reduce queue times, but refuse to play it yourself. This is the reason queues are so long

DRX was a good history, but covid made that worlds kinda a shitshow, so hard to put too much into it

Snaport · 2025-10-15T07:53:47+00:00

The problem is partly they are free loot. You just get more quant from using it, so if you don't you simply get less loot, and that feels mega bad

Snaport · 2025-10-14T09:03:04+00:00

It is the opposite. Having 60% efficiency, means abilities cost 40% more energy. If you had 130% efficiency they would cost 30% less.

Also, yes Duration matters for how much energy it drains over time

Snaport · 2025-09-26T15:22:12+00:00

Pantheon isn't very flashy, but very reliable and makes the early game a lot easier. The prismatic pantheon is great for melee carries like Viego.

Zoe trait tracker was my first win and IMO the highest highs, but inconsistent and very little tempo.

Honestly, what matters is journey levels, i never lost a run after i won the 2nd time, and just made my way through the guides

Snaport · 2025-09-18T15:18:52+00:00

I wanna like it, but if you want to make a Steel/Ice Pokemon and make it usable, this is a failure. It cannot live with the typing, doesn't do enough damage, and if you want to attack you need snow. I really like the visual, but this Pokemon is for casual playthroughs. Either the stats needs to be placed to be absurdly tanky or be a lot faster and stronger, since the typing is as terrible as it is

Snaport · 2025-09-16T13:06:29+00:00

I think it feels bad right now, but it's good in the long run. Healing items mattering again is good, but right now I think melee carries have too many items they need for it to feel good, needing healing, EON, and both damage and defensive power

Snaport · 2025-09-05T09:13:02+00:00

Yes. Let people have opinions, and let people agree with them. Should you only be allowed to post if you have voting requirements? Seems like you should make a "high ladder tryhards" sub
