That's until you discover 's existance coupled with his shield's max HP scaling.

About the high scalings, they're there for you to be able to build defensive items without lacking damage. With 220 AD and 220 AP your full Q deals 1804 damage. With the same stats though, E's damage is only 419 - but the Siphon now also shields based on your health, so it will be more of a sustain skill rather than a damage skill.
