Jaz and Tiamat/Ravenous Hydra

[quote=luizdeh]He gets Armor/MR for 8 seconds every 72 seconds without CDR. That's enough for a teamfight as it unfolds rapidly. Doesn't seem all that worthwhile to just forget about it, though. A lot of builds use [[Randuin's Omen]], mostly because of the passive/active but the extra armor doesn't hurt. He becomes very squishy for those 72 (or a little less) seconds without any other kind of mitigation. With 20% CDR he can use it almost once per minute. That's another way to do it. But what you said makes sense. I'll see what I'm more comfortable with.[/quote]

[quote=rudyards][quote=NicknameMy] Resistances don't have dimishing returns, 1 armor gives 1% effective HP. Also, Resistances counter % Penetration, not the other way around. [/quote] TIL. In that case, it does seem weird. Sunfire does seem like it would be strong on him.[/quote]

[quote=Pheyniex][quote=NicknameMy] Also, Resistances counter % Penetration, not the other way around. [/quote] i'd say it is true if you already have 500 armor/mres. flat penetration counterplays low resistances. resistances will only counter % penetration if you still find yourself in a low derivative value area. otherwise it will resemble true damage, therefore you'd rather get HP.[/quote]

[quote=luizdeh]So why not get some HP while getting other worthwhile stats, as [[Sunfire Cape]] and [[Frozen Mallet]] provide? This counters that and whatnot. Getting some armor, not stacking it to infinity or neglecting it completey either, will always help. Dude gets a [[Last Whisper]], [[The black cleaver]] and [[Blade of the ruined king]] and all you do is build HP? Stacking HP and getting SOME armor should help more than just stacking HP. Seems reasonable at least.[/quote]
