Cost Analysis

Gold Value

• 20 attack damage =  700
• 35 magic resistance =  630
• Total Gold Value =  1330

Passive Gold Value

• 110-280 health (as shield against magic damage) = from 293.33337 up to 746.66676

Gold Efficiency*

• Hexdrinker's base stats are 102.31% gold efficient.
• When triggering the passive shield, Hexdrinker's gold efficiency gets increased by 22.56% to 57.44%.

Notes

Item VFX

• Hexdrinker's passive interacts with itself, similar to Thornmail. Given the lowest amount of magic resistance possible with this item (30 + 35 = 65), then the damage taken calculation (100 ÷ 165 = 0.606), then the raw damage conversion ([110~280] ÷ 0.606), the shield will absorb around 182 to 462 raw magic damage.
• Lifeline will still trigger if damage is taken while below 30% of maximum health.
• Nullifying Orb will always trigger before Lifeline when taking magic damage.
• Despite not sharing the Lifeline passive Hexdrinker, Immortal Shieldbow ( Bloodward), Maw of Malmortius and Sterak's Gage can not be purchased with Archangel's Staff or its upgraded version Seraph's Embrace.

Strategy

• Hexdrinker's shield can help its wielder fight through otherwise lethal magic damage. This may take opponents by surprise, especially if the opponent tries for a risky burst kill but fails to penetrate the shield.
• The shield's short duration challenges users to make the most of the moment. Try relying on the shield to see you though enough magic damage to ensure your own kill, or to make a grand escape.
  • Increasing magic resistance increases the total damage absorbed by decreasing magic damage taken; some consider this to be "indirect scaling."
