Ki Strike?

[quote=The_Nameless_Bard]Ki strike does magic damage....does the magic pen you build apply to it? (this may be a stupid question, but I didn't see another thread for it)[/quote]

[quote=Ya1232]From a few things I have heard about it from people, mostly talking about runes is why they did it. Yes, magic pen does help Ki strike. But is this information 100%? Can't say for sure.[/quote]

[quote=The_Nameless_Bard]I thought so...I'm trying to convince my brother of the viability of AP tank Shen[/quote]

[quote=Ya1232]Build him, wreck face and then he will play it.[/quote]

[quote=The_Nameless_Bard]that didn't work...the 30 assists wasn't enough[/quote]

[quote=Ya1232]Then its time to just punch him over and over untill he plays it. Or is he one of those people that thinks Kills wins games?[/quote]

[quote=The_Nameless_Bard]he just insists on building all health to do extra ki strike dmg...which is great if you want to have a crappy ult and no resistance at all[/quote]

[quote=Ya1232]I dont know what to tell you, as I had said before today. Some people are looking for help, but dont what help.[/quote]

[quote=Zeprido]Yes, MrP applies to ki strike. If you can fit a single Warmogs in mid-late game on top of your resistances, not only will your resistances scale better, but your ki strike will too.[/quote]

[quote=wRAthoFVuLK][quote=The_Nameless_Bard] he just insists on building all health to do extra ki strike dmg...which is great if you want to have a crappy ult and no resistance at all [/quote] But see the main thing is not the shield of the ult but you teleporting there and then absorbing all the damage your teammate would have taken...the shield is just like a 1.5 second temp replacement for you until you get there. The more tanky you are the more effective your ult will be overall. Magic pen wouldn't be bad on Shen, but just build him tanky, he has such great tankiness and CC, no need for extra damage output really.[/quote]
