Boots of Tenacity

[[SBT]Thuriner]

(Better name to be suggested)

Hey guys

Here's my new item suggestion.
I really don't have much to say, but think it could be a viable item. Here goes:

Components:

Marchers - 500g
Guardian Ring - 175g
Crushing Claws - 150g
Recipe - 175g

Total cost: 1000g

Passive Bonus:

+65 Movement Speed (50 from Marchers)
+3 Armor (2 from Guardian Ring)
+5 Strength (3 from Crushing Claws)

Description:

When activated, applies Tenacity to self for 5 seconds (15 seconds cooldown - 50 Mana Cost).

Tenacity effects:

30% Stun and Debuff Reduction*.
25% Movement Slow Resistance.

*The Stun and Debuff Reduction does NOT stack with skill like Slab Skin (Pebbles' 3rd ability) and Carnage (Berzerker's Ultimate - 4th ability).

Note: Tenacity only works on spells casted on the user after it's applied.

Final Words:

Feel free to leave a comment. Also only place your vote for the concept, since numbers will be changed for sure.

[[E]Starz0rz]

Soo, the RotT damage just disappears?

[[SBT]Thuriner]

Yeah it does. I didn't forget about it and think the change from 0.65 Mana Reg to 1.0 was better for supportive players rather than +5 attack damage.

Ofcourse I could rework it, but I also do think the swap from the extra attack damage to Tenacity is viable on supports.

I also think the item would be too powerful if it kept the RotT aura.

[MaTz0r]

I really like this item, but I think it should remove 1 debuff and mov speed bonus, only that. Or give only the mov speed and the stun resist. Btw, it should reduce the silence time, by something like 5 seconds, I think 5 seconds is enoguh to not chase someone.

[[SBT]Thuriner]

It's not removing any debuffs casted before use (is it misleading?).
It's simply lowering the duration of all debuffs casted on the user while Tenacity is active (the 5 seconds).
Any debuffs which hits the user, before Tenacity is activated, are not affected by the reductions.

[Poroksi]

I think RotT is already too powerful and making it easily upgradeable for supports would make it way OP, that's why I voted No

[[SBT]Thuriner]

So even though you lose the auras and the damage from RotT, it's still considered too strong?

[[RC2W]Omega]

Unfortunately I could not see this being picked up by supports over striders, as it is too costly. 400 gold is a lot for a player that only sees about 4000 in a game.

[[SBT]Thuriner]

I've not said it's purely for supports.
I just made an example in #3 of why I eliminated the +5 damage from RotT (I've never been a fan of striders though).
The item is made for the ones who are focused down in fights or have no escape mechanisms.

[[SBT]Thuriner]

*BUMP* Removed RotT from the components.

[[SBT]Thuriner]

*BUMP* Need some more comments/votes from all you guys! xD

[[SBT]Thuriner]

*BUMPING*

[Skyve]

Do we really need to copy more LoL boots? :/

[[SBT]Thuriner]

#13
So because the boots are called Boots of Tenacity, then you suggest they are from LoL?
I've never really played the game so I didn't know they had boots like that.

[Skyve]

The boots aren't called boots of Tenacity, however they give you tenacity which reduces debuff/disable duration on you by 35% or something.

[Antimodus]

name of the LoL boots is Mercury's Treads. Back when I played it (two years ago) they were the only item that reduced CC duration, and were picked up like almost every time and on almost any hero in serious games.

[[SBT]Thuriner]

#15
Ahh cool. But still. The idea is something I came up with by looking at Deadwood, Pebbles and Berzerker.

Also just checked up on these LoL boots and saw that they give a passive debuff/disable reduction.

But thanks for the comments (I might consider some changes to the item) :-)
