Talk:Renekton/@comment-173.74.62.100-20110119050643

After doing some research on this and testing him out myself, I've decided either Renekton is bugged and needs his abilities fixed, or he was very over nerfed. My main focus is his Q ability. In the video, if you pause it and look at the damage and stuff at level one, with a level one champion, it deals 20 (+42) physical damage. The renekton in the video has 57 attack damage, thus meaning this ability scales roughly .7-.8 of his attack damage. If you have played Renekton today, it is currently scaling at less than .1 of his damage. I know riot said they were going to nerf him over all the complaints coming in, but they told us exactly what would be nerfed, and the damage scaling was not on the list. Even if they did this on purpose, I dont think ANY other champion has an ability that scales .1 with their attack damage or ability power. Moving onto the healing (which i know was nerfed). At level one, Q heals for a maximum of 50 health, or 150 if enraged. Currently, at level FIVE, Q heals for 150 or 300 while enraged. I dont think either of those are a big enough heal bonus to be worth practically anything, seeing as it has a 6 second cooldown with a decent amount of CD reduction items. On top of that, thats the hard cap. Hitting that is nearly impossible. I had 170 attack damage at level 18, and Q did a bonus +22 physical damage. Hitting 300 while enraged would be impossible, and doing any worth while damage with this ability are gone. This is the only ability I really had time to focus on before the servers crashed, but I sincerely hope they fix this or give him a pretty significant buff before expecting renekton to do anything useful.

All my evidence comes from personal gameplay, and the champion spotlight video. To check out the damage of his abilities, go to this link, and pause the video at 3:03 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IDXEHgsLfeM Let me know if you think he is well balanced, I'd love some feedback on if im alone in thinking this.
