Items
Cryptbloom has fallen completely behind Void Staff for mages and we'd like this comparison to be fairer. As a result, we're delivering a light buff to Cryptbloom that should help to keep it distinct based on what you're looking for.
General
- •Ability haste increased to 20 from 15.
Overlord's has been fine, but not exceptionally powerful, for most of its lifetime. Looking to buff it into a position where it's clearly better than some other items for heavier fighters, especially in the later slots.
General
- •Tyranny health ratio increased to 2.5% bonus health from 2%.
- •Retribution health ratio increased to 0 to 12% (based on missing health) from 0 to 10% (based on missing health).
The slow resistance stat on Dead Man's Plate has been too effective at covering a few champion's core weakness lately and we feel like this is a good time to reduce the potency of the slow resist on a single purchase.
General
- •Unsinkable slow resist reduced to 15% from 25%.
General
- •Bug Fix: No longer is displayed under the Ability Power filter in the shop.
General
- •Bug Fix: If Bloodletter's Curse Vile Decay has been applied on an enemy that has equipped Death's Dance, Expose Weakness no longer causes Ignore Pain to unintentionally store additional damage to them from receiving magic damage, based on the magic resistance they have lost.
Opportunity has dropped in popularity over time and could use a buff to make it a more competitive option in the Lethality item space. Additionally we're lowering the passive Lethality gain on the ranged split so ranged users don't benefit quite as much from the base stat buffs as melee users do.
General
- •Lethality increased to 18 from 15.
- •Preparation lethality for ranged champions reduced to 5 from 7.
General
- •Bug Fix: Corrected range of the spell indicator. Vision radius unchanged.
General
- •Bug Fix: No longer is displayed under the Ability Power filter in the shop.
