Varus's Passive
Varus's Passive
When Varus kills an enemy, he gains 10 / 15 / 20% attack speed (levels 1 / 7 / 13) as well as bonus attack damage and ability power equal to 10% bonus attack speed for 5 / 7 / 9 / 11 (at levels 1 / 6 / 11 / 16) seconds. Champion takedowns grant 50% attack speed as well as bonus attack damage and ability power equal to 25% attack speed instead.

While this passive is active, Varus' attack speed cap is increased from 2.5 to 3.0 instead.

Begin Charging: Varus draws back his next shot, slowing himself by 20%. After 4 seconds, if not fired, Varus will cancel the ability and refund 50% of its mana cost.

Release: Varus releases the arrow, dealing 60 / 106.67 / 153.33 / 200 / 246.67 (+0.8667 / 0.9333 / 1.0 / 1.0667 / 1.1333% per bonus attack damage) physical damage, reduced by 0−67% per enemy hit (minimum 19.8 / 35.2 / 50.6 / 66 / 81.4 (+0.286 / 0.308 / 0.33 / 0.352 / 0.374% per bonus attack damage) and maximum 29.7 / 52.8 / 75.9 / 99 / 122.1 (+0.429 / 0.462 / 0.495 / 0.528 / 0.561% per bonus attack damage)). Damage and Blight detonation effects are increased by 0−50% depending on charge time (maximum 90 / 160 / 230 / 300 / 370 (+1.3 / 1.4 / 1.5 / 1.6 / 1.7% per bonus attack damage)).

Passive: Varus' attacks deal an additional 8 / 13 / 18 / 23 / 28 (+35% of ability power) magic damage and apply a Blight stack for 6 seconds (max 3 stacks). Varus' other abilities detonate Blight stacks dealing 3 / 3.5 / 4 / 4.5 / 5% (+1.5% per 100 ability power) of target's max health as magic damage per stack. Detonating Blight on champions and epic monsters also reduces his basic abilities' cooldowns by 13% of their maximum per stack.

Active: Varus' next Piercing Arrow deals an additional 6−14% missing health as magic damage (depending on level), increased up to 80% missing health damage depending on charge time.

Varus fires a hail of arrows that deal 60 / 100 / 140 / 180 / 220 (+1.0 per bonus attack damage) physical damage and desecrate the ground. Desecrated ground slows enemies' movement speed by 30 / 35 / 40 / 45 / 50% for 0.25 seconds and reduces their healing and regeneration by 40%. The slow duration is refreshed if enemies stay within the zone.

Varus flings out a tendril of corruption, rooting the first champion hit for 2 seconds and dealing 150 / 250 / 350 (+100% of ability power) magic damage. Rooted enemies gain max blight stacks over the duration. The corruption spreads from its target to uninfected enemy champions. If it reaches them, they take the same damage and root.
