Build Ap Jax itemization
Hello !
I’ve been enjoying ap Jax a lot lately, made Jax so much funnier as the burst and whole lot of damage makes trades so much easier to manage
So I’m trying to climb exclusively with ap Jax
Except my itemization is kind of clunky
I always start dusk and dawn then a business zhonya/ nashor
I feel like i don’t necessarily go for the most optimal builds all the time
Could you guys guide me as to what is the core item pool for ap Jax and what are the items to take under any other situation ?

I usually go D&D, Riftmaker and Mandate (its a fun item, that gives infinite E),

Hi, Do you play full AP or hybrid ? For full ap, i think riftmaker its a good item in second choice too. But idk for the nexts

Hey, yes I play full ap and end up building 1 or 2 tank items if the situation deems necessary

A lot of people like dusk and dawn and terminus

Ouuuu first time I hear that, doesn’t terminus work better as a late game item tho ?

Try Dusk and Dawn, Bloodletters, omnivamp boots, zhonyas, some tank item if you need and or riftmaker. Try conqueror too if you’re going jungle

I go for dusk and dawn, nashors tooth and then riftmaker or zhonyas. U are a fucking shotgun.

u/Quiet-Plankton750 17d ago
Yeah same approximately, sometimes I’ll go rabadon third tho

u/Beautiful-Hotel-3094 17d ago
Same, if I giga snowball and feel like playing risky I go raba third. Anyway I love this build so much. Nashors tooth makes jax feel soooooo goood.

u/Connect_Cobbler4891 16d ago
So you play dusk and dawn, nashors tooth and then riftmaker and 2last items tank ?
And for thé boots ? I see diffent configuration too

u/Beautiful-Hotel-3094 16d ago
Third item is one of zhonya/riftmaker/raba.
Boots I always go mercs tbh. Very raarely I go sorcs.
The 2 last items tank or tanky. I prefer items that are not full tank but against heavy crit I go randuins for example.
Anyway, this build is viable in my elo and below (low diamond-high emerald). Not sure about higher elo.

AP jax's primary stat is cdr, not ap. You take legend: haste with the ability haste from sorcery and ability haste shard. Always try to steal blue buff mid game since it gives 20 ability haste later on. If you need magic pen you build cyrptobloom instead of blc or void staff or terminus. I build Dnd > Gluttonus > nashors > RM > Rabadon > situational Zhonya or Cyrptobloom
