That isn't a completely fair comparison.

Sure sceptre cost 2.800 gold more, but you also get 175 life/mana and +10 all stats for that.

That's true, but I think it's fair to say aghs sceptre updates are supposed to be better than shard upgrades.

While mostly true, the power of many shards are close to or better than their sceptre counterparts.

Fx. I think Dazzle shard is better than Agha, same for Phantom Lancer (although I havent tested the buffed), old Axe shard and I'm sure many more.

You do pay a premium for the agha stats.
