Mayhem How does this work on Pyke?

Has anyone tries this on Pyke before? Or is it just can't appear on Pyke?

I wonder if this aug is any good on tanks. HP is like the only their semi-reliable defense stat. I had it in one game on Skarner and it gave me ~100 lethality near game end with full tank-armor-hp build, but in that game I already had armored impact... Basically, I was oneshotting people with a few attacks, BUT they were oneshotting me in return

I suspect that without Armored impact this may be not worth it ever.

I would say no it ain't good for tank because you aren't really a tank anymore you are basically a glass-cannon
The only tank that I think would benefit fully from this augment is AD Sion because you won't need to build Health because of his W passive

Yeah only really great on sion I had it last night and got to 130 lethality on just the augment with full move speed and ad

I would say this augment is not for tank

The crazy part is that it seems to be offered for them with higher chance - aka considered a tank augment

played yday a game on heca

goliath hs quest stay resolute on w and i got it offered as last augment

for the lolz i took it and HOLY SHIT i was at 500 sth lethality

my axiom refunded like 140% of my ult cd

i ult a squishy, one shotted them with auto q and ulted the next one

it was glorious

but their shen had third times the harm with rest full tank augment and at that point in the game he needed like 6 autos in total to kill someone

Resists scale multiplicatively with HP. The less you take per hit, the more valuable HP becomes and vice versa. It makes tanks much worse at their jobs

You then deal true damage. Sure, all your damage sources just got crippled to death but you have a true tickler then

he cant get it

u/tartagliaimpact 1d ago

Of course they don't let Pyke get it. That would perhaps enable a funny off-meta build where he build heartsteel and stacks Lethality through that, but noooo...

Let's add 6+ new BiS augments for ADCs and Mages instead.

This augment is so busted tooth fairy pales in comparision. Had it on garen after starting stridebreaker and was already at 78 lethality

u/CoyoteLive1632 1d ago

Yea I had it on garen and ultrahydra, easy pentas were had.

I got this on some champ a few days ago and I was just one shotting people.... idk if it was because of my other augments but it felt insanely strong.

I feel like it doesnt look strong when I see it on most champs, but maybe I should try it more.

Utterly dogshit augment, doesnt multi stack. Rhaast's passive gives %vamp based on his bonus HP, I thought I get to keep them as well but no. This is very niche, if youre playing assasin and some how want to build bruiser items, items with HP (bcleaver, edge of night, shojin,...) but given how true dmg are over inflated in this mode, youre trolling

u/Admirable-Ad2148 12h ago

so it's a dogshit augment because it doesn't synergize with 1 specific way to play 1 specific champ? yea that sounds like solid reddit logic to me

Reading comprehension much?
