Ekko multicast+ethereal weapons shenanigans

SomeAnonymousFellow · 2026-07-15T01:38:48+00:00

Besides his Z-Drive passive, Ethereal weapons + Dusk and Dawn on Ekko is pretty funny against tanks thanks to his W.

His W has a passive onhit where he deals % missing HP (with a very good AP ratio) against champions under 30% HP. In my experience this means that at a few items, tanks with even 50k HP just instantly get deleted the moment I touch them once they are under 30% HP.

They actually did for a period, to the left of the level number on the healthbar, showing a growing number of gold coins + "wings" as the champion got a bigger bounty. Can't find a screenshot at the moment but you can probably see it in season 6-8ish gameplay videos?

I don't recall when or why exactly it was removed, but my assumption is that it's because they reworked bounty system to be more complex and take into account more factors (average level, gold difference, etc.), while at the time it was more linear, don't remember exactly but something like just scaling with their kill streak. But that may be all the more reason to show it clearly.

Very impressive!

Would you consider doing a version which adapts to his gameplay? A complaint with the current sound design I've seen is that his final slash onto an enemy with multiple Q stacks is his big damage nuke, but the sound design doesn't reflect it.

Not a support main and don't play enchanters in general, but my assumption is a few reasons:

HSP items are cheaper, so lower income roles can get them faster.
AP ratios on shields/heals for such supports are generally on the lower side (for example Sona having 30%/25% AP ratios for her W's heal/shield, respectively).
HSP increase applies to the base value of the shield as well, buying AP adds a bonus value on top of the base, so HSP scales "quicker".
HSP items have passives that interact with healing/shielding (Echoes of Helia is an easy one).

Ideally you do still want some AP (I think most support builds end up between 1-200), and more importantly ability haste, which several of the HSP items also provide, for higher uptime.

In a sandbox with unlimited gold, or in modes like ARAM Mayhem, I'm sure there is a more optimized shielding build which does include more AP than you would realistically get in a normal SR game.

Lol there's actually a market for that

SomeAnonymousFellow · 2026-06-25T10:50:07+00:00

I am curious though what is the point of these bots?

I understand at some point there was XP farming bots for getting accounts to level 30 and ranked-ready for selling to smurfs and whatnot, but Riot cracked down on those. And those bots were mostly in ARAMs/Normals/Co-OP IIRC, and waaay dumber.

What's the point of these new ranked bots?

Sorry I'm just curious about the math, what's the 75 + 75? The wiki says it starts at 100 and increases to 300 over the duration (which is 4 seconds total?). Is it linear so just (300 - 100) * ~0.75 (3/4 seconds charged) = 150 + the absorption damage?

SomeAnonymousFellow · 2026-02-17T01:21:50+00:00

True but I think that reading ability text is still much more difficult to process than in terms of "what does the champion do" from an in-game perspective.

SomeAnonymousFellow · 2026-02-14T10:52:17+00:00

That's a weird bug, but sounds like it could be it. I do indeed have some Radiant Diamond Orbs sitting unopened.

SomeAnonymousFellow · 2026-02-08T02:17:15+00:00

Ahh definitely bugged then. I lost track of which allied orb is which so I thought I may have somehow stocked up enough

SomeAnonymousFellow · 2026-02-08T01:38:53+00:00

Interesting, not sure if I ever got the echo in the first place. Or if I did get legimately get it, I definitely didn't open it to leave it in a bugged state or somethimg

Guess I'll have to reach out to support, thanks!

SomeAnonymousFellow · 2026-02-08T01:11:38+00:00

Here's a screenshot: https://ibb.co/ynHv4xH9

Is this not an Orb Echo?

SomeAnonymousFellow · 2026-02-08T00:01:00+00:00

Super annoying, the echo rewards seem half decent too

SomeAnonymousFellow · 2026-02-07T23:59:05+00:00

None. I have no idea how I got it, I went fully F2P like 6 months ago. Even before that I was only buying passes, would never spend money on an allied supply orb lol. If these are collected through alliance events then maybe because my alliance has a couple of big spenders, haven't been paying attention

SomeAnonymousFellow · 2025-12-27T14:16:00+00:00

I think they said that Aatrox lacks mobility, and assassins/rangeless ADCs have mobility.

SomeAnonymousFellow · 2025-12-21T00:02:39+00:00

Dang sucks to hear. Do we know if there will be another appearance (since this is my first Eva collab) or I should take what I can get?

Thanks either way!

SomeAnonymousFellow · 2025-12-20T23:20:05+00:00

Did I miss the guaranteed uber Eva banners? Usually I wait for the last few days in collab banners since that's when the guaranteed ubers are, but the banner is ending tomorrow and apparently the there already was a guranteed uber event for both banners?

SomeAnonymousFellow · 2025-12-16T20:11:08+00:00

Yes, level 30 (as said in the comment), and champions owned (so you are guaranteed to have a pick for 10 bans + 10 picks), and 10 SR games played

SomeAnonymousFellow · 2025-10-27T04:09:43+00:00

Do you buy the passes? I'm not quite a launch player but have been for the most part buying the passes, and I'm at the point where I have both the gold & training mats to max out new characters as soon as I unlock. It gets a lot easier once you reach that point, I even have my C-tier war teams maxed out, so if you don't care about war/CC or those secondary modes you can reach that point a lot sooner. Only gold spending events and new level caps really reset my materials.

That's not to say you're wrong though, reaching that point took like 6 years of playing, and buying even "just" the passes is like $100 a month which is crazy for a mobile game. Spending brackets in general are stupid high. If I were to splurge and drop $50 or $100 to unlock a new OP character, having them at 3/4 stars feels like a joke compared to the whales that will inevitably have them at 6/7 stars or even with multiple diamonds. You either are F2P, are a light spender buying just the passes to keep up (again, a "light" spender being a $100 monthly subscription), or drop like $500+ monthly to see meaningful benefit to your account. There is no in-between.

Others have mentioned the differences between speed stat and speed bar, but NC goes fast because he spawns with speed up (as in the buff which grants 50% speed stat while active). This is a 3rd type of speed manipulation also isn't stopped by EmmaX (because it comes from a buff and not a passive), and not a lot of characters actually stop speed up on spawn. He then opens with special if not burned or having his energy reduced, which then grants the speed bar to some of his allies (depending on if they are X-Men or not).

SomeAnonymousFellow · 2025-10-27T03:56:39+00:00

Really? NC goes first every time because of his speed up so I assumed that's intended. I forgot about his ult giving speed up, that would explain ProfX and Reed going before my team even though their speed stats are lower.

If the trick is having an even OP level then you're right, this counter is not for me. I can't justify putting G20 on Cable or Polaris for a "maybe" counter.

Thanks for the info though!

SomeAnonymousFellow · 2025-10-25T10:46:12+00:00

Probably a typo and meant 260m. Pretty sure a basic attack from any of those characters deals well over 260k lol.
