BTW, your skill order is all screwed up; you have 6 ranks in Remove Scurvy and 4 in Raise Morale. Probably a typo, but it's worth fixing.

You're also going to have some mana problems early (at least get a health+mana potion instead of two health potions)

"but pure crit and ad carry gp is best way to build him."
I beg to differ. Straight dmg GP is too squishy to really maximize his dmg potential, even if he does more damage than off=tank gp.

Runes: crit chance glyphs don't give you enough to make it worth it. Crit chance is great for him, but 2% from one set of runes? Not really worth it, I'd say. Try CD runes, which will actually give you more crits when you can Parrrley more.

I really don't see why so many people are whining about this build; it's pretty solid in my book. +1

I find it funny that u downvote the top-voted guide when u make a typical dps offtank build. It may be viable, but pure crit and ad carry gp is best way to build him. U dont have do to a tanks work. GP has absolutely no abilities that sinergize with an offtank style of play. With medium farm and medium skill u destroy with pure crit GP mid game. Offtank builds on pure dps carrys are for people who dont know how to avoid dying. SKILL.

Warmogs at the end is to make the Atma's Impaler worth while. And if you follow this build you should know how to last hit minions and properly farm anyways... I have no trouble maxing my build everytime with 300+ cs with like 10 kills... Its not hard. 15 cs = 1 kill.


Yes, but you will get the amount of health quite at the end of the game, maybe one side has already the domination to this point, and you dont seem to understand me. You need to farm 100 cs or a few kills at the end of the game, maybe you wont even have it fully stacked when the game is over. And there are a few things like counterpicking, which make you unable to win a lane no matter how good you play, or the jungle camps the lane. There are so many things which could happen. Maybe a early fed LeBlanc who wants to two shot this gp just for the fun of it?
This build is a build nearly everyone would go when he gets fed and this isnt happening every game. If you get fed every game you are one lucky person.

Actually let me say now that I didn't downvote your guide because you downvoted mine (I did look at your guide because of that though) I downvoted it because it's a bad build.

As for trolling I didn't troll your guide and leave a 1 line comment, I gave you constructive criticism.

Saying you have tons of damage is one thing, but considering we both have triforce + IE, I would say our damage is about equal, only thing being that I prefer sustained dps over burst which is why I got a Wit's End. And Wit's is actually very good for him, even if it's not very well known.

I've already given you constructive criticism, for example that amount of health only annoys that Caitlyn like a fly, and Vayne still rips you apart.

You can't teleport to Nid and Cait traps unless they've changed that, although you can tp to Teemo Shrooms which is why I didn't mention them. As Koltar said, your build is to expensive anyways, and it's generally around 20 cs that = 1 kill, not 15 :)

In any case, i'm not going to incessantly argue about it, I've already given my opinion of your build and you've given your opinion on my build (which I thank you for reconsidering and playing the build) and unless your build changes I can't see my down vote changing.

I do apologize for the previous comments before my review, those were out of line and I'm sad to say that I was rather angry at your vote. Perhaps we could play together at some point, you can find me in the Mobafire chat on NA a fair bit, idk.

Also @Caster

I don't really think your input was needed, but thanks anyways :)

Plus on the up side it makes you very tanky so you can go into team fights and be able to help your team more :)

It may be a nice build, but the cost of the items is so high, that if you dont get fed or a really easy lane, you wont get half of the items you need to carry your team. And Warmogs at the end is...well you need 100cs for it to be fully stacked...
What i want to say is: Nice build, but only when u know you will win the lane or you get really fed and warmogs at the end is just bullsh*t.

dude, you are absolutely hilariously ******ed.

I found your downvote on my guide hilarious since I specifically made a build for doing damage, and I'm even thinking of doing another one.

However when I looked up your guide, it just made me laugh my *** off.

The title is tanky dps, yet you downvote my guide for not having enough damage.

You recommend a CrC start, which is terrible and loses you the game right there, not only that you take CrC glyphs which are so bad I don't even want to get into it lol. Typical Atmogs build, except you have no armor and no MR LOL, instead picking up a late warmogs for no reason...

You mention he's not good to take down tanks, except built the right way he is perfect for that (which you do not do).

Not to mention you're wrong, you can't teleport to Caitlyn or Nidalee Traps, only wards lol.

Not only that but you don't even have a whole lot of sections which could MAYBE make up for your terrible build.

Well anyways, no sweat off my shoulder.

Cheers :)


This so hard

Why am I commenting back on this again -.- I'll settle some things here

First off, talking about you and Nighthawk here. Wtf is with this dispute? You downvoted his guide and said no damage whatsoever. Yet you didn't say how he could improve his guide and change it up a bit. You were literal and said that no matter wtf he did he would not achieve damage and downvoted him. As for nighthawk, you decided to downvote Killdemnigs' guide because he downvoted yours. Your words have truth in them and if someone downvoted me and said one sentence I'd probably get mad too.

TBH, both of your guides are good, displaying different tactics/builds for your guides. HOWEVER, take consider of what you say and why you're saying it. I could honestly say that both of your guides are mediocre but no, I chose to leave feedback here and tell you what you can improve on. Don't be dumb and start hating, instead just talk it over =)

Trinity Force is for the Sheen Passive and Frozen Mallet is for the health and slow.... It makes a huge difference.
