New to Rammus and I have a question. Can he be viable as a tanky DPS?

The build I have in mind is Swift Boots, Madred's Bloodrazor, Atma's Impailer, Thornmail, Warmog's, then either a Sunfire or a Sheen... not particularly in that order though.

At level 18 his base armor is ~89. Madred's, Atma's, and Thornmail add a total of 170 (additional 45 if you choose Sunfire). Total built armor count at lvl 18 is nearly 300 without Sunfire and over that with it.

Base DMG at lvl 18 is ~118. Madred's adds 30. That's 148 built damage. (Atma's later).

Base HP is 1968 at lvl 18. Filled Warmog's adds 1370 for a total of 3338 HP.

So do all the crunching aaaand... the attack damage punches out to ~214 AD x 2 from sheen + 4% life of enemy. Might not seem like much but you can taunt and make them hurt themselves too.

What do you guys think?
