Since the 2 recent changes I have had to make MAJOR changes to my build, almost every taric I have made has been killed by this patch, the only one that still worked was auric (aura taric), I played a lot of games with him and was shocked one game at how rediculously tank I was, from that I made a second taric build, with new items I have never thought of getting before which is designed more for solo play, however in particular teams it is better, and is always better when your team lacks tanks

Auric Red: Atk speed runes Yellow: Armor Runes (currently changing to Armor/Time Runes) Blue: Magic Resist/Time Runes Quint: Magic Resist Masteries 0/21/9 Build If laning with a person with mana and at least one other mana user on team Mana Manipulator (upg this to soul shroud as fast as you can, you can only not get this in exchange for boots, you will need the mana regen from it and it gives ap) If not Chalice Boots Of lucidity watch who on your team is doing well and get these items accordingly Starks Ferver (AD carries doing well/ you are going extremely well/combination of the two) WOTA (AP characters/Jax and heroes like him who are going ap, keep in mind this is not favorable as, and i didnt realise this at first, taric's ap ratios are almost as bad as leona's now) Aegis (im not sure who is doing better yet out of the 2/characters are being bursted to death without being able to move)

After either Starks / WOTA get Aegis if u havent done so then get these items situationally (in order of preferance) Randiun's Omen Abyssal Sceptre Frozen Heart Shruia's Reverie (sorry couldnt remember name correctly) Frozen Mallet

Ghost, Heal (I know immediately that people will complain about heal, let me explain why)

Why Heal? oh god i got this by accident once on new taric and ive been using it ever since, after a combat starts taric will take 2-3 seconds to finish activating his inbuilt auras (as you will first stun, run up radiance, shatter then finally imbue) a lot of stuff can happen in 2-3 seconds to your squishy characters, most likely by the time your finished they will be almost dead, Heal the summoner spell is an instant cast, as soon as u give the command to shatter use heal to rejuvinate your squishy ad carry then imbue him, your team should come out of most teamfights on full health after completely annihilating the enemy team due to how strong this heal feels on taric

finally level up Lv1 - get Dazzle try to keep shatter and imbue evenly leveled tho if your lacking aggression get more shatter than imbue, i would say the same defensively for imbue, but against pure phys always have shatter >= imbue

~ u asked for it
