Hexdrinker, thoughts?

[quote=caucheka]well its early game that probably has all those haters up in arms, magic resist which reduces the magic damage you take, and then you get the mini shield. early game this item is god mode anti mage and they hate that.[/quote]

[quote=thommygun]i love hexdrinker used in my irelia build and i really love its passive it can save your life.[/quote]

[quote=HeAt]The hexdrinker is ok, namely on melee DPS heroes such as shaco or yi. But late game it really does lose value as the AD it provides is minimal, i would love if it could turn into something, possibly with a spirit visage to make it semi health item as well.. until then i do not see myself using it much.. still need to see how it fits some heroes, i have a feeling it would be a good AD kicker for akali, grab a longsword and upgrade into it.. Just my 2 cents - HeAt[/quote]

[quote=Restrictnine#5232]I personally love hexdrinker. It is a great early game item for a lot of offtanks such as Xin and Irelia [YES DAMNIT SHE IS AN OFFTANK]. I dont know the total cost, but i assume it isnt too expensive, because it isnt a ridiculously pwn item like Infinity edge. I will probably get it on tankwick. As for runegorger, it sounds OP. it shall be nerfed. guaranteed.[/quote]

[quote=Visfarix]Thanks for all the input. You guys all confirmed my suspicions of this item. Great early game, good mid game, subpar late game. I only saw it bought in one game where a kog was getting devastated by me playing Anivia. He bought it around mid game, and while it did save him a couple of times against me, it still left him open to all my teammates to finish him off.[/quote]

[quote=ExamplePrime]Not sure how to fit it into a build... Maybe combine it with a Wits End for a cheap anti-mage DPS champ[/quote]

[quote=caucheka]ooh thats a good idea, wits end. i'm assuming the original idea i posted earlier would have it combine with lifesteal to make the runegorger..[/quote]
