Talk:Warmog's Armor/@comment-5266525-20130223144848

I too am of the opinion here that Warmog's price needs to go up, but I think there's a problem with that. Because Warmog's only provides raw stats and no unquantifiable passive, it needs to be cost efficient to be worth buying, but simultaneously you need to make sure it's not so cost efficient that literally everyone should be buying it. The problem is that to do that you have to make it cost so much it becomes painfully hard to ever invest in it, especially with four items in its recipe.

Assuming an arbitrary threshold of a modest 2500 health before factoring in Warmog's, it provides 1350 gold's worth of health regeneration. If it needs to provide that much to be efficient with its current properties it would need to cost a little over 4500 gold.

Keep in mind, it is getting nerfed to 1% health regen from 1.5%, so this number goes down to about 4000 gold, but that's still pretty expensive. It'd like rushing a Triforce except the components you buy before it aren't nearly as useful on their own.
