Thank you! He is. Carrying a game as Taric is one of the best feelings!

Thank you!!

Thanks for reading, and I'm glad you found it helpful! :)

I agree, and thank you!

Comments like this are the best to read! My pleasure. It's great to hear that my guide has been able to help you in that way!

Agreed! I'm really looking forward to using the new items. They'll feel so good on Taric.

Hey! I'm very glad to hear that! Thanks for reading. If you build Reverie, I recommend building it as a first or second item. It's great in the early- to mid-game for making picks and engaging on your enemies, thereby securing early leads. I prioritize the healing build path when I have one or two tanks on my team. In that case, I don't need to worry so much about defense and absorbing damage--they'll have that covered--so I instead turn my focus towards healing, and I buy items which maximize that.

Besides that, I can tell you how I usually prioritize my items. My first pickup is most often Knight's Vow, especially if I know my ADC is the main target of my enemies and I'm the main one who can protect/peel for them (i.e. if I see someone like Rengar, I rush this no question).

Other times, I rush Zeke's Convergence if Vow isn't necessary and I want to see my ADC pop off. Specific situations it's good for include (1) when you're with an ADC you have good synergy with, (2) you're in a good matchup, (3) you're ahead in general, or (4) your ADC specializes in attacking fast or has AOE attacks to spread the burn (i.e. Twitch, anyone who'll build Runaan's, etc.).

Shurelya's Battlesong is what I get first mainly if I'll be going for a healing build, as I mentioned earlier. It can also just be bought first regardless of that, for the sake of being ahead and/or wanting stronger engages. It's a solid item on its own and doesn't need to be complemented by other healing items; you can build anything else that you want after it.

A couple other items are important to keep in mind when thinking about build paths: Locket of the Iron Solari and Redemption. In games where I'll be needing AOE damage protection, my best bet is Locket, which I either build after Knight's Vow (having the extra health first will increase the shield's size) or I just rush it upfront.

I may rush an early Redemption instead, following the same mindset--does the enemy team have a lot of AOE damage? In this case, Redemption is my answer to that when I'm going specifically for a healing build.

Sometimes it's good to get both of those early. As an example, if I see a teamfight comp like Katarina + Wukong + Miss Fortune on the other team, that's my cue to pick them both up.
