You supplied two possible sets of marks, both of which are incorrect. Attack speed reds are the ONLY way to go on Nautilus. Yeah I dared to insinuate that you are wrong. Here's why: Nautilus's skills have AP scaling. Therefore AD marks are not good. Shyvana can use flat AD marks because her clearing skill Burnout has AD scaling. Not Nautilus.

By extension of logic, armor pen marks are bad cuz his skills don't do physical damage.


Changed runes to Att. speed and added a "Runes" section below where I include the discussion. I hope this settles the rune business (=
I apprechiate any +Rep and votes on my guides

Phantom Dancer removed, replaced with Abyssal. I do not intend to sell boots, I am just putting in an alternative to other items. The cheat sheet is here to give you an idea of your build quickly.

Nice and interesting guide, but agreed about phantom dancer, Ionic Spark will be better, they get you attack speed pn W skill , HP, and 125 magic dmg. On dominion this guide best, never seen before ^^

Hm, I like the idea of getting attack speed on Nautilus that's why I also agree with the blabla above about attack speed runes but I can see only one good reason:

The dot from Titan's Wrath. It is pretty strong if you got a lot of attack speed but at the same time here leis the problem: If you want to utilize this you have to have more than a decent amount of health to keep the shield up as it scales with bonus health.

So if I look into your build now I see a lot of attack speed but not enough health. You don't even reach the 3k at any point.

I tried it (because of my tanky DPS guide) but selling boots or whatever you do to get a Phantom Dancer is deffo a bad choice because Nautilus is naturally slow as **** and doesn't do well without his boots. Not that I got something against it, it's jsut the way his character is.

Rofl. his build gets a little jank at the end, but not like he's gonna have 14k gold to complete it all. I just like FH and wit's end a lot on naut.


You're right, all the gold will be hard to get. But honestly, any jungle guide on mobafire will have items that you can't afford most of the games. As you can see in the screenshot I posted it is not impossible, just hard. I'm trying to bring a point across with this guide. I want people to consider these items, you will get tons of damage and it's funny as hell :D
I do hope you'll try it out one day. Of course you do not want to go for a Tri Force early if you do not get enough farm but you can get alot of gold if you try hard enough ;)

Thx for your comments, pls +rep (=

Have a good one

You mispelled Anchor in your title (and probably at other places in your guide)! Make sure to fix that :P.

I definitely think your build makes you too squishy xD. And if you are getting fed and want damage instead of tankiness, Triforce and Phantom Dancer are not the best choices on Naut at all xD. He doesn't scale well with Crit chance and AD at all xD. If you say you're getting those items for the movespeed, then you need THAT much movespeed lol. You already have the most CC in the game and Shurelia's and Randuin's and Frozen Heart. No need for more movement speed. I would get items like Abyssal Scepter if I got fed. He scales with AP, Attack Speed, Magic Penetration much more than with AD, Armor Pen, Crit chance, lifesteal, etc.


You're right with some of the things you say.
For the runes: Attack speed Marks speed up your jungle while AD Marks give you more damage for ganking. I do not feel like I need the Att. speed in my jungle so I go for the dmg buy sou are right, both works.

The Phantom Dancer: Yes you are right there aswell, it's kinda just the thing I get if I'm too fed and the game is won, it's kinda like that last item that just shows everyone that they shouldn't mess with you. I'll change it.

Too squishy for what? For taking all the dmg in a team fight yes, but there are other junglers that are more dmg oriented, so as I said you'll need to change the way you play him.

I'm sorry about the spelling errors, I wrote the guide quite early in the morning. I'll try to find the errors and correct them. Thx alot for your comment and pls +rep (=

Have a good one

correct, but extremely short. also, good hands sucks. take more mana.

Also, consider attack speed marks. it considerably speeds up your jungle, and a little AD and armor pen won't mean much since you do almost exclusively magic damage.
