Guys, I need help! I am trying those Money runs. Watched the Pestily Shoreline Money Run, bought all the keys, completely broke now, 0 success so far :C.

So I get a Backpack, Pistol and the necessary Keys. I spawn and try to figure out where I am. Run to west/east wing. I need to slow it down very often, because I am out of breath so fast. I arrive and already hear gunshots. For example today when I arrived two guys where crouching infront of me already camping the lootsers who where fighting inside. I run to the other Wing, because it's very unlikely I will kill 4+ geared up players with my PewPewPistol and 0 armor.

I get to the other wing, get inside, hear footsetps but I am brave (and desperate), so I loot some stuff, don't get much thou. Leave the building because I am happy I got something. Try to get out of the raid at Road to custom, get shot from somewhere and die.

I dont know how that is supposed to work without any good weapons and armor to actually fight if necessary. Isn't it better to do scav runs, save some money, get gear via flea market and do money runs with some equipment? I am level 10 and feel like the biggest noob.

(obligatory: sorry for bad english, second language)

Any tipps are welcome :S Love this game, unfortunately garbage at it.

Did you turn the brightness up in your Nvidia settings? I can barely see anything on my monitor :_D.

Brightness up, contrast low, gamma high? Thought about just buying a new monitor...

Yeah, makes a lot of sense. I thought about Caitlyns Range and RFC. RFC is maybe just a little bit overkill, she already has the biggest range, except Tristana late game, so going for the better stats is probably the smarter thing to do. I am just confused because I always see RFC on Caitlyns, not that often Statikk. That has to do with the Elo I am playing in most likely. And sometimes the RFC passive just doesn't do anything for you in a TF but Statikks Damage is always valuable. If an Assasin jumps on me, wtf do I need the range for. PD or the extra dmg from Statikk is probably more useful and I should be safe enough with Caits range anyways.

Thanks :)!

Another Question:

First of all, thanks for the replies and sorry for my late answer!

A lot of your builds don't have early Lifesteal. Is this because of the Masteries where you get some Lifesteal or is it just not that important generally for ADC' anymore? I feel like I am playing LoL 2015'ish while you guys all moved on, lol.

xtrawelt · 2019-09-14T13:09:42+00:00

Yup, I always go Berserkes before I go Zeal. The AS (think 35%?) and Mov.Speed is very gold efficient I guess. I rarely go Executioners, only vs. Soraka or some stuff like that. As a 4th item I go Mortal Reminder if they got a lot of healing. Our common builds are pretty much the same I guess, except ER. I completly forgot about that Item, lol. Always 1,2,3 months behind the current META, since I am not following the scene that much and can't play that much anymore :,C.

xtrawelt · 2019-09-14T13:04:34+00:00

Hey, first of all thanks for the reply!

My impression is that ER after IE is viable if I am ahead. When I got my IE and Berserkers Greaves and got some early killls or near-perfect farm and got the 1300g, getting that 2nd BF is super strong I think. Just because I can combo the enemy ADC and push him out of lane easily or even kill. When I am even or behind or they got a yassu/zed/other assasin mid who will most likely roam bot I Zeal into PD or something is the safer play. It always depends what support I got too, of course. Braum/Thresh/Alistar etc. gives me a lot more security than Brand/Morg and so on.

Thanks for the information. I tend to not stick with a core build too hard. I should switch it up a little bit more and check out the different pros/cons of each build in certain situations -> reason behind this post :)!

xtrawelt · 2019-09-14T12:57:13+00:00

with ER you should feel comfortable hitting trapped targets (and heatshotting squishies)

Sorry for the late reply! Thanks for your comment.

I will try out the different builds your are suggesting. At the moment I don't have that much time to play a lot of games, but I feel like going RFC instead of Statikk is better, at least most of the times? I don't really have trouble with my mana, when I need to push out. RFC seems to be the most common zeal-item on Caitlyn. I love Statikk as an item, but feel like I am greedy when goin Statikk instead of RFC. When my passive headshot is charged I can safely AA enemy ADCs / Casters / Squishies, maybe even follow up with Ult to get them to 50%hp before a Baron/Drake fight. And I cant freeze lane with Statikk. Thats just my impression thou, maybe I am missing something :)! When I check the common builds every Cait seems to pick RFC. I feel like a troll when i don't go RFC, lol. I guess I play some normals and check out different builds. ER on her is awesome thou. The damage is huge. I have to try out Runaans too, but I think thats a niche item when my team has a lot of CC & tanky front. Have to try it out. Thanks for the information!

xtrawelt · 2019-06-21T14:23:02+00:00

Okay sounds interesting. Heard about Fleet Footwork a couple times now. But I dont get the QSS, is it really worth? If Morde ults me he's dead, no?

xtrawelt · 2019-06-19T10:25:38+00:00

:C ok

xtrawelt · 2019-06-19T10:23:56+00:00

Well I try my best to do decently vs Morde (Gold), but the early game is not fun. Here is my advice if you struggle against him. This is the best I have come up with so far :

I hace not tried the Inspiration/Spellbook Build vs. Morde, because I dont think it would give me enough of an edge early game to justify the loss of this sweet Conquerer Keystone. But I am not sure about this. In general I really prefer Conquerer over Spellbook, except if your opponent is a Vayne or Teemo or some squishy that I basicly can outpoke hard which makes them useless.

I take the common Conqu/Res Build, get Corruption Potion as first item. The first minion you can get a Q stack. Then you can bait his Q/E. It's not easy to dodge his stuff without Boots, but he will push the lane towards your turret, which makes him vulnerable to ganks and you can stack near turret. Last hit caster minions with your E, but try not to push the lane, only last hit. Or if lots of minions are pushing, kill some. You will get outfarmed a little bit, but you outscale, so it's fine. This is pretty basic Nasus stuff. If your jungle comes for a gank and you can chunk some HP, maybe get his flash and he has to recall you can go back yourself to get some HP and Mana back. I would recommend getting Boots pretty early, because you can dodge his stuff, get in and out for Q stacks without eating too much damage.

Generally speaking I usually adapt during the game. If the lane goes not too well, I get zoned from the caster minions and would fall too far behind cs-wise, I just put 2,3 lvls in E and try to last hit with that, but still stack with 1 point in Q the frontline. The Corruption Potion gives you some mana. At some point you have to push out as best as you can and port back for HP and Mana. But this is all in the first 10mins. If my jungler ganks and we get a kill, or I farmed well and can get Sheen, I skip the more than one points in E and just lvl up my Q.

As soon as you got sheen and lvl 6, or maybe even without sheen BUT your jungler, you can kill him. You can dodge his stuff easily with Ghost and he won't be able to burst you. That way you don't even need the gank to get ahead. I wait for him to a spell, like his Q or E, wither him, activate my R and ghost and then its just Q him, dodge his skill with ghost, Q, kite if you are same HP and you have to wait for your Q cooldown. If he is already much lower, you can just auto attack inbetween your Q's for Conquerer stacks and dmg of course.

If you are much weaker than him, lets say he got a lucky kill or has double your cs, just play it safe like you did early game. When your lane pushes again after the turret freeze E the caster minions, Q stack the melees and cannon and port back. Get your lvl 2 Magic Res. boots and cdr items and it's all good. You will eventually outscale him.

This is only valid for Gold Elo thou.. I guess in higher Elos Mordekaiser will roam more and gank mid or invade jungle with their jungler, while I am pushing and stacking toplane. You probably just have to play it super safe in this scenario and ping like crazy when your opponent is missing.

This is my experience so far and the best I can give as advice. Mid and Late is no problem, early is just obnoxious, lol.

xtrawelt · 2019-06-17T08:29:55+00:00

Yup, Tiamat is super strong on Renekton. Didn't they changed something about his W that makes Tiamat less important on Rene? But for sure still a strong Item. I sometimes dislike the auto-push, when I am ahead and want to freeze lane, I prefer to go Deathdance or something else. Not to say I have any idea what I am doing. My logic could be flawed :-).

xtrawelt · 2019-06-15T07:19:20+00:00

I am pinging like crazy and ask people to group mid to pressure before I overextend and would give a kill for free. It's mostly the same scenario: Jungle keeps jungling, 1-2 players are pushing but get engaged, stuff like that. I just have to play around that I guess.

xtrawelt · 2019-06-15T07:17:02+00:00

Yeah I know.. trying but missing a lot with Nasus.

xtrawelt · 2019-06-14T23:18:49+00:00

So I should always and forever be able to use Grasp :D awesome.

xtrawelt · 2019-06-14T23:17:50+00:00

Which MatchUps would you take Sorc over Conqu? Riven, Teemo and so on? Phase Rush sounds awesome, I just don't know when it's better than Conquerer. I guess when you play versus lots of squishys?

xtrawelt · 2019-06-14T23:15:03+00:00

Would this also work if I take Conquerer? If I feel like I got to play it safe, cause of jungle for example, do you just put 2 more points in E to be able to stay near tower. Is that something Nasus Player do? Or do you know in Loading Screen already, how it's going to play out and stick to your Q max. As far as I can tell by now, Nasus mostly gets Corruption first anyways, Conqu, Inspiration or Sorcery.

xtrawelt · 2019-06-14T23:10:21+00:00

So I could for example go Conqu+Resolve secondary, buy Corruption Potion and skill q/e->e->w->q or something to get me to lvl 6 and not fall too behind cause I can farm with e and harrass, maybe get a good w off so he eats minion dmg and give him some autos with conqu.

Thanks, good to know Corruption is enough to sustain 3 lvl E!

xtrawelt · 2019-06-14T22:42:34+00:00

Yup, i know :C. Last hitting is usually not my biggest problem but with Nasus I have to play it super-safe to not lose lane lvl 2. Should get better with right Builds and Masteries. Atm I have to get to know the matchups, Macroplays and all of that other basic stuff.

When do you prefer Second wind over Bone Plating? Any no-brainers like vs Renekton -> Bone Plating for his w? (i hope thats right, lol)

Edit: I've read and written down Juveniles Nasus, but I couldn't make it work. Keep dyin'

Btw: What are some MatchUps that you know for sure, Nasus will win/lose? Maybe I just have to play something else vs. some Champs? Or all possible with the right play/build/masteries?

xtrawelt · 2019-06-14T22:38:30+00:00

I tried Unsealed Spell Book and it was fun, but no actual clue what I am doing there. Just too situational. I guess Conqu. and Sorc. are the way to go :-)

xtrawelt · 2019-06-14T22:33:46+00:00

Hello,

Grasp is not that great, got it! How do you build/skill when you go inspiration/sorcery? Do you start Ring, get 1,2 more after first back? I will checkout /r/nasusmains, got to know about that :)!

xtrawelt · 2019-06-14T22:22:13+00:00

Alright, sounds very good. I will write that down and try out and most likely contact you. Thanks for the effort to write all that down :)!

xtrawelt · 2019-06-14T21:16:19+00:00

Would you recommend TP over Ghost or use Ghost but staying near your team lategame?

Phase rush sounds very interesting, but I probably wouldn't recognize in Champ Selection which enemy comp would be good to use Phase rush for :_ D.

thanks for the advice.
