@  Iffem Singed and Ryze are FAR better served by Rod Of Ages. It's a 121-170% efficient item compared to this 91.7%. And they're not going to give up Archangel's for this. So with ROA, Archangel's, boots, and at least some basic resists for both and CDR for Ryze, you're looking at Righteous Glory as only being a 4.5th/5th item for those 2 champions. So this utility item is pretty much limited to late-late game on 2 champions, which is kinda stupid since there are other initiators who would love the active and might make use of it as a 2nd/3rd item if it wasn't weighed down with mana.

All of the AP champs who want some tankiness are going to want the AP of ROA, so you're looking at this for tanky supports. I can see this on Leona or Braum, but NoobOfLore's point still stands about the Catalyst because, while the Crystalline Bracer part is going to be a great laning item combined with Targon's, building the Catalyst will make Leona cry. She'd much prefer the Glacial Shroud for its CDR and build into Frozen Heart. And as a support item you're looking at the health regen on this as being a largely wasted stat as this won't come until well after the laning phase: if you're building this you're not building resists so even a "tanky" support will get taken down in a heartbeat. The health regen belongs on a proper tank who might be regenerating between waves while defending against a seige, like a Mundo or Garen -- both of whom don't need mana!

It's a really awkward item.
