Hey guys,

Just a short question.

Looking at the tool kit and spells on Freya and Nu Wa...

What are the main differences in their tool kit, that influences how their build should also be different from each? They have a lot of similarities. The main difference is that you would like to have more CDR on Nu Wa than of Freya. Anything else?

Hey Osirisus,

's kit, when her abilities are activated, is closer to an ADC-type mage. This means you'll want attack speed, power, and penetration. Normal items for Freya include , , , and for that function. Past those, lifesteal items like or (or against enemy healers, and of course and or to do as much damage as possible. Her most functional attack comes when you activate both her 1 and 2 abilities, giving you some great damage at range (again, very similar to an ADC/hunter.

Since 's #2 has a slow built in, you wouldn't necessarily need an item like . But, that might be an item you would consider on , though she also has a bit of control/stun in her #3. If you can catch enemies in her , it would be more functional there. You'd build her pretty much like a standard mage... perhaps, a bit of lifesteal, , , , and depending who you're up against, a more utility-type item like Magi's Blessing, since her escape isn't the greatest. Her act like 's stupid little spiders, but don't need to be triggered...in a pinch, they can be used to tank the damage from objectives.

I THINK I'm pretty accurate here, that's at least how I would build them. But there are other key stacking items you might consider in Conquest...I mostly play Assault, where stacking items are banned.

So, their kits totally play differently. is a popular jungler role for her good burst potential in combination with her ult, which gives her good mobility, or perhaps as a magical ADC in duo with a physical support, while is mostly mid-lane, I think.
