it would work but his bite scales on how much health he has over his natural health at any given level. for example at lvl 18 his natural health is 1988 but i have gotten him up to 5000 health. that's 1065 dmg on a champ at 50% health

Thanks for the feedback Guys! Im really happy with how this build turned out. I never thought it'd get over 30k views :) Anyways, i updated a few things with it and will be adding a Gameplay chapter and maybe ill make a few more builds for it, possibly even turn it into a full Volibear guide and not just AP Offtank. But ill have to figure out the coding and such again x) Thanks everyone!

Faceroll build

Awesome guide

Dude, can you, like, provide some, like, logical form of argument? Did you even look past the initial build? If you read the guide, the author does provide some explanations for their item choices, explanations which you should address if you disagree with them. Here's an example:

I agree that things like Rabadon's Deathcap won't work on Volibear, but you should say stuff like that instead of some generic put-down discouraging new guide authors who put the effort into making a guide for you to read.

I like that you are theory crafting for a champion before you buy them, it means that you care about learning your champion some before you play them. :) And nice use of code-links. That said, I would recommend changing some of these things about the guide:

1) Chapters:
Chapters make it easier to read the entire guide, consider dividing it into chapters. This won't be difficult and shouldn't take much of your time, just trust me- you'll get more upvotes if you make the guide more reader-friendly.

2) Items:
Your build would work, but when making a build for a champion, consider what would be synergistic (would work best with) to the champion.
Rylai's Crystal Scepter for example, is great for Volibear because it adds a slow to his ult in teamfights, and provides health and ap. I like that you put it in the build.

Sunfire Aegis and Abyssal Mask are good choices in the build together because their passives benefit from each other.

Rod of Ages is another good choice for health ap and mana.

These are the ones you have so far, and great choices I think. But here are some more items to consider:

Nashor's Tooth works well with Volibear because he can make good use of every stat it gives. Attack Speed will allow him to get more out of his ult every time he uses it. AP will help with damage. CDR fixes the long cool-downs you mention in your cons section. Mana-regen will help him with mana sustain.

Randuin's Omen is fantastic for Volibear because its active helps you to disrupt team-fights.

Frozen Heart CDR again would help fix the long CD's mentioned earlier. Mana and Armor help too.

Soul Shroud or Will of the Ancients will greatly increase your healing, allowing your ult to heal you in teamfights (Will) or making your passive heal more (Soul).

I argue against using Rabadon's Deathcap for Volibear because you will need stats beyond pure damage if you want to be able to survive in team-fights.

Ionic Spark is like a miniature ult that you get all the time, and will help with your attack speed.


3) Grammar and spelling:
Try copy pasting your text into a word processor, then fix the stuff it marks in red and complains about.

With all that said, good luck with your guide, have fun with Volibear! :)

Oh, and here's a link to jhoijhoi's guide to making a guide in case you get serious about climbing the Volibear guide ladders.

lmao...it actually worked out...sorta..I started getting a warmog's cause I was getting focused a lot but it kinda worked xD not really viable but good enough for laughs xD http://i47.tinypic.com/se3cj6.jpg

This build is quite funny..I've got about 60 champs but I still don't own Voli so maybe I should get him...if I do I'll try this out cause while I doubt it's viability cause Voli is an HP tank it's pretty fun and it would be interesting to play a tanky AP Volibear =D
