I think losing ~100 AP towards the active is exactly the reason this item isn't that much stronger than it was before this patch, heck to me that looks like a pretty significant nerf actually. Sure end game will be roughly the same damage wise, but that's only because late game this item will be crippled by mres it can't put a dent in (void staff + sorc shoes don't do much either, sure it prevents you from getting ignored entirely but in most cases that's pretty much it).

If you think this item now is a lot stronger try it for yourself just like I have. I think it really isn't that much better, if any better at all.
