Forum » Theory Crafting » Malice > Deathbringer on assassins 9 posts - page 1 of 1

With the recent nerf of 's passive - crits deal 40% extra damage rather than 50%, is the better item of the two on assassins who used to rely on as that third or last item. Gods like ~~Hun Batz~~, Serqet, ~~Ne Zha~~, Ratatoskr, and Mercury will benefit from getting instead of . Of course, those gods who would've gotten both will still get both but just first. i.e., Serqet and Mercury. Others can build double crit too but those pretty much always build into double crit. Then there's assassins that can build into crit situationally like Fenrir, Awilix, and Thanatos who will either pick up or depending on how much time they plan to stay auto'ing and how tanky they are.

Hunters will stay the same because late game they end up hitting crits every other auto. So, the nerf didn't affect the hunters too much except for their late game damage by a small bit.

KrettCalc 2.0 for reference!

Personally I think the crit nerf is probably a good thing because it may help open avenues into building other types of items instead (obviously it's not a big enough nerf that this will be the standard on hunters, but it may help with the aid of other item changes). I will admit though that and probably don't need the nerf :/

I completely agree with everything said previously except for Mercury, he will scale better with DB as malice scales off physical power while DB scales off of the individual basic attack. So Mercedes passive in the movement portion gives more power to the initial basic attack which is only further scaled up by the DB while malice is the same damage proc. So while you do get both for the made you look poke DB is a better first pick up in my mind.

I have an awesome guide out on Cabrakan, check it out

Merc needs rage as well so you want DB.

But on gods you don't go rage on malice is first priority I would say. You can still go Malice and DB though. On hun batz for example.

I get > on Mercury. And generally first. You're not auto-attacking 6 or 7 times. Boom boom ded! is better for early game poke as well. Krett goes with and . Even uh Weak3n would take > way back.

Ne Zha and actually even Hun Batz need third item because it's tied in their kit. Serqet can crit on but she has no crit damage to build upon like Hun Batz' passive or Ne Zha's ult and 2.
