Default [ITEM] Mithril Armor


Make it more expensive.. But really nice idea. Maybe you remove something and add a Recipe. And btw, why is the name Mithril Armor in the topic, but in the thread its Mithril Hammer?

Pretty much agreeing with everyone here...what's the point of parrying? Besides that, nice item ya got there!

It's a mistake... Hmm.. Is it really not codeable? I thought it was codeable since it gets some variable like that though I'm not good at map making...

If it is really uncodable, I'll change it...

- btw this obviously shouldn't stack with itself or other evasion items...
Mithril armor, some mistake...

Hmm... Yes, that doesn't that makes sense. But how about sword giving evasion in butterfly, dagger giving blink, helm giving life steal? Yes, I know it doesn't make sense but it is pretty ok I think.

Also you don't get 60% evasion using this. First, you only block some of the damage if enemy's damage is higher. Second, you'll still get some effects like bash if you're just blocking.

After a second thought... what if u r using troll for example or any other hero with miss or pseudoevasion?
30% evasion+30% parry+10-75% miss chance depending on skill?
Imagine this on troll, riki, faceless or even worse pandaren(u will get 12.25% chance to actually hit!)

I will have to agree with lezley, remake the item somehow to remove the evasion. In positive note i really liked the concept.
If enemy has higher damage, so it will only block part of it. Also, this skill only last 8 seconds with 20 seconds cooldown.

Triple post, c'mon...

Anyhoo, it's much better now, I like it. Maybe it could even block some more, for that kind of money. Or don't take so much ASPD away. It's usefuly rather only for escaping right now, imho.

50% is 50%... Poor tiny.
I dunno, maybe playtesting would say more about it. Imho it should be more powerful, but who knows.

Default Re: [ITEM] Mithril Armor

What if you replace chainmail with platemail, increase armor by 10 and remove the talisman?

If you really dont want to then up the cooldown from 20 to 30seconds or lower parry from 8 to something like 5-6seconds and leave evasion of talisman as is 25%

EDIT: shit i just noticed, u are not talking about damage block but damage reduction, still i think u should up the cooldown to say the least

p.s I can already see it, Centaur+heart+mithril armor+blademail spamming stuns in between cooldowns! :P

If you get evasion, then you don't really need to get the damage reduction. IMO application of good concept fail. T-down.

You could keep it to evasion only and remove the active skill. Unless you want this as a counter to MKB's Truestrike.

Mithril Armor(4500):
+30% evasion
+5 Armor
+25 damage

Butterfly(6000):
+30 Agility = ~4.3 armor+IAS
+30 Damage
30% Evasion
+30 Attack Speed

I really think that you need to re-do your concept. Your item is just a cheap version of butterfly. Why bother getting something "bad" instead of a good item for a surcharge of 1500 gold ?

At a glance, I'd say it's because Evasion already gives EHP, there would be no need for further damage reduction.

It sould give you evasion and armor, a lot of it or add some more bonuses. Like this, it's not a cheaper version of Butterfly, it's a completely useless item, very stupid to buy.

Default Re: [ITEM] Mithril Armor

I like it, but I am not sure of its relevance to the game. Normally tanks are there deal damage and assist the team. I understand it will enable a tank to survive, but it offers no protection from nukes. To pay 550 gold for 5% evasion and to combine into one item slot. Hmm not sure about that.

Specifically what heroes would it synergise with. Tanks dont need evasion because... they are tank. Right, agility heroes get evasion to allow survivability and have damage for a cheaper price. But its much better for an agility hero to put the 2700 towards a butterfly. Its that simple.

Maybe take away the damage it gives, and combine it with a poor-mans shield and a hood. Dont sit halfway. Make it a tanks item. Give it block, evasion, spell protection and armour. That would be useful.

Or you could make it give evasion and damage in an AOE to allies. Making it more useful on all heroes.

I like the overall concept of using evasion in another item, but this item is quite dull. The active is gone?

I'd support it, If it had an active spell.
