^Why does everyone presume when they say Hourglass they mean -just- the active effect? It adds these things called stats, most items I get on champs that have an active effect are usually bought for their stats instead since they're usually pretty good. But on my opinion on getting it on Xerath....Eh, it'll certainly make him have rediculous amounts of Armor, but I think you'd need Abyssal Scepter in the build as well to cover the usual flat MR stat on mages.
