Rafael Wrote:His Spear Shot and Heart Seeker Strike got their scaling changed so that they scale from bonus Attack Damage as compared to total Attack Damage. The buff to the base damage on each ability on a per rank basis covers the difference in damage that would have been if his base Attack Damage had also been included (note this is by rank 5 and level 18) .
Yeah, I know. He's still going to be too strong. Doran's Blade + mastery + AD runes = ~28 attack damage. At 1.4 ratio, it's about 35 damage. That's about 100 damage Q at level 1 and its still a 4 second CD.
The numbers for the current Panth with the same set up would be 82 attack damage. That would be a 98 damage Spear Shot. We'll call that breaking even.
At level 6, with the same gear, new Panth will have 180 on his Q whereas old Panth would have 165 damage on his Q (([65 base + 28 bonus] * 1.3) + 40). And the ult currently takes long. And the ult scales down to 30% damage instead of 50%.
Oh yeah. And the spear fucking crits. (270 damage at level three with the above AD)
He'll also get more out of a level 1 W. The only thing that won't be just flat-out better is HSS. It's only at this-will-probably-be-better level.
I hope this just looks worse on paper than it will be in the game.
EDIT: I want to run him with AD Reds/Quints and MP5 Yellow/Blue. Start Doran's Blade. Tear > CDR Boots > Brutalizer > Manamune > Defensive. With either Ghostblade or Last Whisper as the "wtf i have too much gold" item.
