This is like one of those Bibles that has zero pictures in it, and you just flip through all the pages and cry.

It shouldn't really matter whether it's for high level play or not. The point is to build the most optimal kit for Nocturne to use - that doesn't change regardless of what tier you are, so long as you are playing seriously.

Nocturne is unique in the sense in that he has a lot of assassination power, but it needs to be kept in mind that he doesn't quite have the power to 100-0 like other assassins or offtanks might. This is the main reason why he builds minimal damage items and mostly tanking items. He deals plenty of damage with just one or two damage items because of his in-built steroids.

The point is to engage and dive into the enemy, have them focus you and then tank the damage whilst you can output your DPS.

It's a beginners guide, and I respect what you wrote. The parts I've read seem solid for those new to the champion and gameplay.

But there are too many walls of text. To be honest, I couldn't finish reading it, just because of all the text.

It's a guide, you have to keep your readers interested and mesmerized. Adding some coding, pictures and more icons really helps.

There are a lot of guides explaining coding on this site:

General
BBcode
Columns

Best of luck,

Edit: I don't think others should tell you how to build your champion. This is YOUR way of building Nocturne and if it works/when you can back it up that's what's important.

You have to keep in mind that this isn't something for higher elo where teams are more coordinated; this is supposed to be a guide for people who are just starting off jungling, as said in the introduction. In normals/very low ELO, damage is usually better since you can't rely on your teammates; and furthermore, the point of this guide was to teach people jungling and the interchangeability of in-game builds. As I mentioned several times, the item build was only an example.

Of course, you're probably right in your context, but please understand that this guide isn't for high level play.

The problem with purely theorycrafting is that you just don't have the experience to put it into practice and see the flaws.

The flaw in your build is building WAAAAAAAAY too aggressively and neglecting tank stats till very late into the game. That's just plain stupid because it will end up in you getting obliterated in teamfights if you don't snowball as hell.
