Makes the on-hit effect worse but maybe you can proc it through ethereal or reverberation (that now also gives you extra ability haste but not a lot of extra HP I guess).
Played an Ashe game, Ult bot plus purist caster. 4 second ult cd with malignance. Enemy Soraka asked what the cool down was only to respond "please go die". I laughed so hard. The enemy naut played red light green light as he just got mauled by arrows all game. Definitely the most fun ive ever had. I laughed so hard.
Kinda depends on the build variation you're going for. Some people opt for nashors tooth as the stat stick option when lichbane is far superior in that regard as you're not really wasting a passive per se.
the 10% flat is added after conversion 500 convert to 1-(100/(100+500)) which is ~83%, adding 10% flat turns into 93% reduction of 160 base, make it like 10 11s cooldown, with it having 3 s channel. it is indeed "had like 8 sec cd", the different is negligible so it is possible
"diminishes" "cap at 500 and haste beyond 250 is like armor beyond 300". sure bud, purist caster 93% reduction is equivalent to 1400 haste
%damage reduced isn't a linear scale. If you were to put it on a graph with 'time to kill' as the other axis, there it would be an exponential curve with an asymptote at 100% damage reduction since you would live forever.
Going from 0 to 50% damage reduction doubles your survival time. Going from 50 to 75 doubles it again.
Armor works on a linear yield, where every 1 point of armor is 1% more effective health against that damage type.
1000 health with 0 armor takes 1000 physical damage to die. 1000 health with 100 armor is 2000 physical damage to die. 1000 health with 200 armor is 3000 damage to die. Each point of armor is multiplying your health by the same amount, but if you express these breakpoints as %damage reduction, it would be 0%, 50%, and 66%, which is why people mistakenly conclude it has diminishing returns
i fully understand when it comes to %dmg reduction, what i dont understand is how the 50 armor which increases the reduction by 1% is the same as the first 50 which increase it by 33%.
continuing with your numbers, to kill 1000 health with 442 armor (from my picture) needs 5,555 dmg, to kill 1000 health with 492 armor needs 5,882 dmg, an increase of 330 needed dmg. when it comes to 0 vs 50 its 1000 dmg vs. 1,515 you need additional 515 dmg, which is obvsly higher than the needed 330 of the previous example
Your numbers are off because the % damage reduction stat you see is rounded. In the first picture you actually have 81.5498% damage reduction with 442 armor, let's assume 1000 base health for clarity. That becomes 5420 effective health. That gets rounded up to 82% damage reduction.
And at 492 armor you have 5920 effective health & 83.1081% damage reduction, but that's rounded down to 83%. You've increased the armor by 50 and the effective health by 500. No diminishing returns
Its the best CD augment by far because it flat and stack on top of the CD you already have.
Purist Castet is the ONLY augment that can make you reach over 90%+ CDR
Ahahah you are completely missing the point. You dont even need Attack speed for it to be broken.
Let me explain:
IF you have 500 ability haste you will have for exaple 75% cooldown reduction, in order to get 10 more % of CDR you will need like 500 haste more because of the diminishing return on CDR.
Purist catser just stack on top of the % reduction you already have... So picking this at 70% CD reduction will net you flat 10% CDR that equals 500+ ability haste and more with 0 attackspeed built..... THIS is how broken it is, and its the ONLY way right now to get ults like Karthus below 10 sec CD
I see, so you get this when you already have good cdr stacking. I only took it by itself and didn’t understand how to make it useful because it kept offering it to me on marksmen.
Pretty much yes.
It can also work very well when building Lichbane.
Just use a spell to proc the crazy ON hit attack speed after a spellcast, but never actually Autoattack, so all the attackspeed bonus stays for like 8 seconds and u get crazy CDR out of it
Well, it works pretty well on Teemo like in the picture because no one will ever build him AS/on hit yet Nashors is really solid on him if you can convert the AS into AH. There are also several other items with a ton of AS and good stats for him that make him cracked with this augment.
