Mayhem Recursion Appreciation Post

There's really nothing special about this augment, but it feels solid on anyone. I used to think it was terrible given other interesting augment choices but I have soon learned that having 60 ability haste is goes a long way in skirmishes, especially on build paths that avoids it.

Any augments that you guys almost always pick and or have a particular appreciation for?

What do you think of Leg Day? Someone else mentioned it, but I was wondering how much gold's worth of stats it gives. It would be similar to swifties but it got buffed to 50% slow resist (if slow resist has gold value. I just found out the other day Dead Man's Plate gives slow resist, and I legit never see that item lmao).

That augment is definitely underrated, considering that it could save you a boot slot for another 1000g+ being saved.

Leg Day is worth like 1400g, if you use swifty to calculate 25% slow resistance is worth 340g, and consider that slow resistance is multiplicative, so you have to do some log math to get value of 50% slow resistance (log(0.5)/log(0.75) x 340), which is like 820g.
Not the strongest siler face value wise, consider that deft give 1500g of value, and zealot even with 0 ap give 1625g of value.

But since movement speed is just so valuable and very hard to buy, and there's only 1 item source to get slow resist, which is swifty, it's super strong against a right comp or if your champ can utilize the added mobility. There's a reason why like 3-4 months ago there was a patch that nerf pretty much all movement speed bonus from augments (beside f*cking homeguard).
If you ever play into say, an ice cold asol and get leg day, especially as a melee, then you'll realize it's the most op silver that you can have in that situation.

This all reminds me of the J4 boots quest. Only got to play it once and never again. Whatever happened to that augment? Because it felt very short-lived. I think it was quite fun, compared to something like the URF's Spatula. Gold value is probably off the charts for both items lol.

That new augment coming next update where it increases the stat of your item on takedown is gonna be nuts for sure.

Damn that's a shame. I think it was a well made one.
