I didn't used to like this item. Because the thing fills up by doing damage to enemies I thought that it was mostly for damage oriented mages who want to spec into a more supporty sort of thing. Like the likes of Orianna, Lux, or AP Mid Lulu/Karma.

As it turns out I was overestimating just how difficult it would be to actually fill up in the first place. You really don't need to actually build damage items to fill this up at all.

As it turns out, a full support Janna with this can cast W on an enemy to fill this thing up by half... Said Janna using W then an uncharged Q will fill it by about 80%.... and that's for JANNA.

For any other support you're almost guaranteed to fill this thing up completely in 2-3 spellcasts or even a few auto attacks without any AD. And I now build it on basically everyone who has a heal or shield. This thing gives so much healing and the only requirement is something low cooldown to proc it with.

Ironically now I don't think it's a good option on actually damaging mages like the Orianna or Lux from before. They cause this thing to fill up so quickly that they can't expend the charges fast enough and you'll be sitting on maximum charges for so long while you wait for your shield to come off cooldown.
