Patch 26.10
nerfFollowing its adjustments and the removal of Opportunity, we expected Voltaic Cyclosword to see more play. We’re happy to see it making an impact on the meta, but are lowering its power slightly by increasing its price tag.
General
- Total cost increased to 3000 gold from 2900 gold.
- Combine cost increased to 963 gold from 863 gold.
Patch 26.9
buffVoltaic Cyclosword brings some cool Energized options to AD casters, but we think we can make it even broader by allowing it to open up the strict auto-attack gate that stops many melees from being good with it. We also don't love the slow effect, as it tended to trivialize a lot of the combat once players did manage to get into melee. With Opportunity removed, Voltaic should also be able to stand as the premier "upfront burst" item for AD casters.
