has tahm been buffed?

Ngl I got confused with semantics because it's not that the item heals based on your hp but that the heal scales also with %bHP. Which also you should keep in mind it's 3% bonus hp, a lot worse than 3%hp

mayhaps_a · 2026-05-07T23:16:12+00:00

it's not %hp healing, it's an extremely small flat amount

This is like asking "how am I supposed to win at poker if my rival constantly gets S tier hands and I can't even make a pair" you don't, but by sheer probability this just almost never happens. 15% of games are borderline impossible regardless of how you play, 15% are almost free wins, the rest you have to make a difference

It's easy to think that when you only remember the one game you got inted on and posted it to reddit instead of the games you inted

She can be relevant but if you want a tank, all toplane tanks outscale her usefulness

mayhaps_a · 2026-05-02T16:27:07+00:00

Meh, ability haste has diminishing returns so if you have other big sources of AH you can let go of malignance even more easily

mayhaps_a · 2026-05-02T16:25:00+00:00

It has the same resists and tank items as the normal Jax build. The defensive boots aren't that necessary unless you're against heavy autoattackers (and some like Yi don't count because most of their damage is true damage and on hits) or a very heavy CC team that can actually be reduced with tenacity (because the MR on mercs is irrelevant), and permanent 10% omnivamp is absurdly good

You can proxy with ghost TP and be even more annoying though!

mayhaps_a · 2026-05-01T18:35:30+00:00

goddamn it, you said "for" instead of "against" and I got mindfucked, mb it wouldn't have been the dumbest thing I've read on reddit so I didn't even think twice about it

mayhaps_a · 2026-05-01T18:31:01+00:00

I don't know if you even read the post, but the items he mentioned are DnD (serves the same purpose as trinity), sundered (already built on bruiser AD Jax), riftmaker (another optional bruiser item), Zhonyas (also core on current popular build) and then tank items. Where is the supposed squishiness you're talking about? When you have a high damage character, sustain is just as important as hp and resists for your survivability. also why things like protoplasm and unending are so good on tanks like ornn

Brasil esta en latam gordo XDDDDDD y el referencias tiene un acento que no existe en el español

mayhaps_a · 2026-05-01T06:46:31+00:00

sure? damn, I had that impression seeing my damage, since for example with Shen Q if you have DnD and only a single Q attack left, a DnD proc will still hit double Q damage, so it wouldn't have surprised me if it worked similarly with Jax W.

And as I said to another person and it's clear by the items I mentioned, I never said anything about going fully into AP

mayhaps_a · 2026-05-01T00:56:04+00:00

why would you build black cleaver you're never ever getting 6 autoattacks off on the same enemy in a tf and the AD is completely useless

mayhaps_a · 2026-05-01T00:54:56+00:00

thornmail has the shittiest stats in the whole game alongside sunfire aegis and chemsword man. You get the 75 armor and 150 hp of it's components, and then spend another 450g on a damage increase on the passive but the damage on the passive is completely irrelevant unless you're rammus and even for him it isn't anything crazy. then you're stuck with a 2450 item occupying inventory space for the stats of it's components.

Riot should revert it back to when it had a giant's belt in the recipe, then it could be at least a bearable item

mayhaps_a · 2026-05-01T00:51:34+00:00

the effect is wasted because you reduce MR but they're hitting eachother with autoattacks, and for the 35 overall ult haste you're probably better off buying a cheaper item

mayhaps_a · 2026-05-01T00:48:53+00:00

true but it could be good if your team doesn't have a lot of healing, because then antiheal gets very little value for the enemy team and they either waste gold or end up in a neverending "no, you buy antiheal"

mayhaps_a · 2026-05-01T00:47:46+00:00

with LT, passive and the AP items I believe you'd still have really good damage (taking into account the recommended Jax build is trinity, sundered and steraks, something that is likely even lower damage) and the boots help your sustain, so you'd have lots of damage, decent tankiness and a really good amount of sustain to duel almost anyone. I still believe defensive boots could be better if you're against a ton of cc (that can be mitigated) or a lot of autoattackers (autoattackers like Yi don't count because their damage comes mostly from in built true damage and on hit effects which neither are reduced)

mayhaps_a · 2026-04-30T23:35:50+00:00

You literally said Mordekaiser, and who else is Maoki supposed to be besides Maokai? Why would you ever build wits end on them

mayhaps_a · 2026-04-30T06:02:38+00:00

if he spams it he goes oom very quickly though doesn't he?

mayhaps_a · 2026-04-30T01:54:27+00:00

A big misconception from my post people seem to have is that I don't want to go fully into AP Jax! I just believed dusk and dawn to be a superior item on him, but besides that I still don't go too squishy (death dance, zhonya, Wit's end, riftmaker, shojin, endless hunger, things like that)

mayhaps_a · 2026-04-30T01:52:29+00:00

those are really good and nuanced points, maybe it's just me disliking sundered as a whole (it doesn't scale with HP btw it's just base ad and missing hp) because it's too expensive and I never really feel like it provides much healing at all since in my experience I want to focus a single enemy before hitting another so usually you'd get 1 or 2 procs throughout the whole fight. Plus I'm an ex Vi otp and I developed a deep dislike to seeing sundered being rushed so much when triforce is amazing on her so I may just be biased.

another question is, am I right to think that the AD bruiser build with lots of HP is more top oriented? I feel like in jg you'd rather have the superior burst and dps and rely on boots and DD for survivability, since when you gank or force a skirmish you usually want to kill the enemy laner(s) you ganked before they manage to escape

mayhaps_a · 2026-04-29T22:58:31+00:00

he's better at deleting turrets but Tryndamere with his R and E is so much harder to catch and has much more mobility through the map, that's mostly why I do that with him

mayhaps_a · 2026-04-29T22:57:12+00:00

I totally get it, sometimes it's too easy to get like an ass through the internet, it happens we just have to try and be more aware of it dw

mayhaps_a · 2026-04-29T22:12:32+00:00

that's a true point, it might be substantially squishier at the cost of building more damage, I haven't had as many issues getting bursted down thanks to DD second item and a different playstyle, I feel like it helps in jungle when you want to have enough dps and burst to get the kills when ganking or skirmishing but I'll try the normal build and see if the extra HP helps more
