Talk:Locket of the Iron Solari/@comment-23838403-20140206020642/@comment-9048637-20140330222335

Because the old Locket of the Iron Solari was a very cheap item that gave a variety of useful defensive stats, in days when junglers were predominately tanky and had cramped gold budgets, and was rather cost efficient. Old Runic Bulwark, which new Locket replaced, was also a good team item due to the aura giving armour as well as MR and health regen, and still gave very good personal stats on top of that. It was also very cost-efficient.

New Locket doesn't really have any of those claims to fame, but force of habit dies hard.
