To me that functions more like a lever to allow Trist to reach maximum power...pre-rework Trist was just a pile of range and attack speed steroids on top of very potent base stats. If she ever reached her core items or even full build, she was unstoppable due to her safety and the power of her steroids and base stats...she basically never had a down time...post rework Trist does have massive down times, except the way they function gives her kit massive clunkiness due to how front-loaded her damage is and how she should work as a chain combo caster/auto-attacker, but her kit's numbers aren't up to par, so that damage drop is gonna happen, not because you were forced to it, but because your kit has that gap in-built into it....
