Does it seem viable if you use it's proc before your passive? I can't see other usefulness otherwise.

I don't think it's all too viable considering you can't spam your skills too much. It'd be okay for your ult in one burst but that's about it.

Overrated. Imo this guy should be built AS/Crit in the beginning, then AD later on. Much like Yi.

I tried them all, DEWO. So far AS/Crit gave me the best results. I did:

Doran's Blade
Zeal
Ionian Boots of Lucidity
Phantom Dancer (YES! Phantom Dancer. It works on this guy.)
Infinity Edge
Youmuu's Ghostblade

And I didn't get longer into the item sequence cause six times in a row the team surrendered >_>.

As for defensive, I've tried what you said; Banshee's and Frozen Mallet. Didn't really help much, right? Banshee > Mallet in my opinion, though. In all fairness, I think defensive items is overrated on this guy. He can backdoor like a boss though! Pop ultimate before you're in view of the tower, and whack that **** into oblivion :D

i've faced heavy stun steams with heavy AoE. And i looked for some surv, any kind of CC will purely screw up Noct if you can survive the innitial REQ burst.

That is why i am looking for a good defensive item for him. Banshee is ok but i was not amazed by it's usefullness.

After the nerf BV isn't that good anymore. I'd probably get a GA instead(not 100% sure tho). Hexdrinker is a decent option too, I guess.

That might be VERY viable since i start of with a Long Sword anyway. I have to test out this tonight.

Decent for AD and MR passivly, and that shield passive is good for getting a gank drawback on your ***.

Thx for tip Searz. This might be what i was looking for.

I agree that CC will screw Nocturne over. GA is an option, and Hexdrinker is more that early-game defensive measure.

I'd probably get Merc Treads to solve the CC issue.
