I can't stress this enough. Please learn the stat caps (inside)

There is sadly a HUGE amount of players that don't know that there is a cap on how high some of your stats can go. It's really annoying seeing ranked players buying like 4 attack speed items.... So here's a reminder hopefully people pay attention to this.

Attack Speed is 2.5

Life steal is 65%

Critical chance is 100%

Cooldown reduction is 40%

Movement speed is 1000

Hopefully I won't see people build cooldown boots, brestplate of valor, and chronos pendant all in the same build.......

Well lets talk about when the last time we saw a SWK with full crit items. I dont think I've never seen one with 2 crit items.

AS is tbh easy to overcap as many gods have great self boost to it.

AMC for one with his permantly hives.

CDR is super easy to cap, since it only takes 2 items to get to the cap or even 30%. Everything else, I don't know. Of course it makes no sense to cap any of those without a supporting stat (high crit but low power, heh).

Quite funny that the lifesteal on mages is 65% but physicals its 100%

1

Its because physicals have to use basic attacks and mages can use abilities ^^

BurningFlareXYay? YAAAAY! Yay.•

ESPECIALLY on Gods like Mercury, New Arachne and Artemis. Your speed steroid will more than likely be enough for maximum attack speed, so you only need a single attack speed item to hit cap (Or get as close to it as possible) once your steroid is at rank 5.

Arachnes steroid only works for 3 basic attacks.. after that you rely on your items again.

That said though you probably only ever need 30% or so overall on Arachne. She hits really hard with abilities.

Critical chance is 100% as are physical lifesteal but other than that you were correct. You can check the cap numbers in the God Builder. Other caps that are useful to know about are Physical power (400) and Magical Power (900). Magical Lifesteal caps at 65% as you said.

In addition, all protections cap at 325.

and the power cap is what you can get from items, gods passives and pots can put you above that, have seen a Janus with over 1400! :)

Correct, however as far as I know, you don't benefit from anything over 900, as with Lifesteal/Crit/CDR. Even if you get more, you don't benefit from it.

damage above the cap does increase damage, got ao to 1711 magical power! No person in there right mind will have no boots, no penetration, have 2 potions, the damage buff, and the power girdle though. that number with without the extra 99( multiplied by pots, buffs e.t.c) from bancrofts passive :)

Ye kind awkward complaining about people not knowing the caps and then posting wrong cap stats

I still don't get why mages even buy cooldown boots if they are planing to buy BoV.

Most of the time now if a mage buys CD boots they are goin warlocks to get the tanky there
