Looks ok.
Not sure about the start though. I would prefer . Not sure about chalice either.

For the support build, I think , , and in the same build is a bit of overkill. I could be wrong.

For your usual build, is a bit questionable. Not 100% sure.

Thoughts?

All three of those are traditional support items, Gary. I would get Thebes after the other two provided I knew I could get it stacked. and are both early game protection items that provide protections and utility to your teammates. is more of a mid/late game item because it needs to be fully stacked to be useful. I do agree that isn't very useful outside of Assault because the other items listed provide more utility.

I wouldn't go , especially if you get .

As for the standard support build, that's an...okay cut-and-paste build for any support, but it could be better overall.

is a bit more of an initiation Support. He's not the sit back and stay near teammates and peel for them kinda guy. As such, those team support auras aren't going to be as helpful.

Instead of , which I feel is the weakest of the 3 aura items, I would consider going more aggressive with (if you have 2 other magical characters), (for anti-heal), or (great objective push). For that same objective push, you can consider as well.

can also be a nice early bridge item, if you've got a good early game ADC.

Because he's got that great leap in both regular and dragon form, I'd say would be a better standard choice over , but that might be preference.

@GulfWulf, BranMuffin17, Thanks for your comments. Good suggestions.

Anytime, Gary. Welcome to the site and thanks for sharing your expertise. :) I don't play much conquest, but I love playing guardians so I look at how other people are building them for ideas.

As for , as Bran pointed out, he's an initiator and not a peeler/protector. With him I'd go: ; ; (if both the enemy ADC and jungler were physical, otherwise I'd pick up or depending upon the enemy's healing potential); / depending upon whether or not the enemy team has strong healing. If I didn't already get sov, I'd get it now; provided my ADC and mid had good clear and we weren't behind; situational items like , , , , , , etc.

As for this build, it's basically a cut 'n paste like Bran pointed out. It also doesn't mention any alternative items like for heavy slows or for multiple enemy AA gods. As for the few alternative items listed, I would never get , but the two robes are good depending upon the situation.

Hey Gulf, just gonna offer my thoughts:
Even though this is a build and not a guide, i still think the author should provide alternatives. No two games play the same.

The cooldown build would probably be better served starting with reinforced greaves and ending with pestilence and breastplate of valor

(81) |

Nah. I only get BP in non-conquest modes like arena and clash where your team may or may not be near you often enough to warrant getting something like sov. Even though Faf's a bruiser, he still need to provide auras to his team, be they direct or indirect (pest, void, etc.).
