Ok so As most of you probably remember reading in the recent patch Icy Cold Armor was added to the Blue Ogres(Ice ogre) Now I decided to screw around and actually grab one of these guys and see what the skill was like. it sounded neat so i tried it.
Heres what the skill does
Duration: 45 seconds
Mana cost: 40 mana
Cooldown: 1 second
+8 Armor to target, any enemy attacking targets receives 30% slow and -30% attack speed for 5 seconds.
Now the Blue Ogre has a large mana pool(400 i think?) which means he can cast this armor buff on your entire team twice for 45 second durations each time before returning to the pool.
Is the cooldown meant to be so short? because honestly it shuts down alot of team fights. We never had to worry about them escaping or massive amounts of physical damage. Once they hit you once keeping the distance was easy enough for 5 seconds when they just re-applied the debuff. And for someone like Ophelia +8 armor early on is a great asset. It also applies the debuff to Kongor if he hits you which slows his ass to a crawl in move and attack
Any thoughts on this? or do you feel the 1 second cooldown is ok?
Also if anyone was interested Ophelia can now dominate Lesser dragons and Predasaurs(not that they are combat effective- but it's funny)
