TBC is viable, but I still think Ghostblade is the better choice.


I agree.

I find that TBC, is more of an Anti-Tank item.

Ghostblade, IMO, is more of an Assassin item. The active makes short work of most champs early and mid game. Its also a great turret pushing item. 4-6 sec of an AS buff can make a difference in lane pushing. Plus, Im sure that turrets cant be effected by TBC.

TBC isn't really anti tank. LW is more anti tank in comparison.

Also: the active on ghostblade is 4-8 sec :P

I've actually been starting to play tank nocturne in solo q and I'm 3/0 with him so far. Build -

Cloth Armor Health Potionx4(yes, 4)
wriggles lantern
Heart of Gold
Avarice Blade

Let your gold per 5 do its work for as long as possible.

Core:

wriggles lantern
Youmuu's Ghostblade
Mercury's Treads
Force of Nature/ Banshee's Veil
Randuin's Omen
Guardian Angel/ Frozen Mallet/ Trinity Force

It's actually pretty damn powerful, I gotta say.

Thanks to Anal Samurai for the sig!

Ty for the update Sears. I been playing combat arms a lot and yeah.

I think TBC is more anti-tank because it's stacks take off flat armor and ghostblade only has ArP. So unless I misunderstand, I think flat armor reduction (TBC) is a lil better than by passing armor (Ghostblade). Im still trying to get mechs straight lol

Although I built Noct rather "Glassy" at first, I remodeled him to build like a slightly DPS but mostly as an offtank. Jungling with him is fun and If you build bulky He takes the aggro because people dont suspect it due to all the people who build him like a glass cannon. Couldn't agree more on your point "Flubadoo".

I should try Ghostblade more, but I'm still skeptical since it gives no survivability.

Also, I just played with Guardsman Bob and I jungled nocturne and built standard super-tanky and did quite well :)

The thing is they can't really ignore you, but focusing you takes ages.
