PASSIVE GAIN FOR GOLD AND MINION EXPERIENCE - Rift Herald
- Once the laning phase ends there is usually a lull in the game, where you don’t have an objective to take down. So we’re making some adjustments to Rift Herald and some other systems so that the pace of the game will feel more frenetic and progressing into the mid-game will feel smoother.

Patch 3.4
nerfGraceful Charity was a placeholder to help Supports earn more gold. Now that we’re adding Support quest items, we are removing the band-aid.
Graceful Charity
- Removed: The player with the least gold on the team will no longer generate +2 gold per second.
PASSIVE GOLD
- Player with the least gold on the team gains 2 gold per second → Removed
Patch 3.1
nerfWe’re reducing the amount of catchup experience in the game overall slightly to increase the ability to solo carry since it will be easier to generate larger level leads. This will also reduce the power of various strategies that revolve around falling behind significantly to get big bonuses from catch up experience.
Experience Catchup
- Reduced the modifier on experience gained by players significantly ahead or behind the rest of the team. Players that are ahead will be penalized less, while players that are behind will be favored less.
Patch 2.5
nerfAfter reviewing the effects of our changes to gold acquisition over the last year, we feel we’ve drained too much gold from supports as a role. We’re buffing the Graceful Charity passive gold mechanic from Patch 2.4 that should allow us to isolate buffs to the support position.
Gold
- Bonus passive gold starting time reduced from 5:00 elapse to 4:00.
- Bonus gold per second increased from 1 gold to 2 gold.
GRACEFUL CHARITY
- Bonus passive gold starting time: 5:00 → 4:00
- Bonus gold per second: 1G → 2G
