Cost Analysis

Gold Value

• 65 ability power =  1413.75
• 860 mana =  1204
• Total Gold Value =  2617.75

Empyrean and Awe Gold Value

Because of Seraph's Embrace's stats and the recursion, Awe and Empyrean grant a minimum of:

• Awe = 46.34698003538 bonus AP
• Empyrean = 7.7836745008845% maximum mana
• TotalAP = 65 + 46.34698003538 = 111.34698003538
• TotalMana = 860 × 1.0778367450088 = 926.93960070761

The gold value is therefore updated to:

• 111.34698003538 ability power = 2421.7968157695
• 926.93960070761 mana = 1297.7154409907
  • Total Gold Value = 3719.5122567602

Gold efficiency

• Seraph's Embrace's base stats are 123.98% gold efficient.

Notes

• Empyrean and Awe stack recursively between themselves, granting a total of (5% bonus mana + (0.25 + 0.125% AP)% mana) ÷ (1 − 0.00125% mana) ability power and ((5 + 2.5% AP + 0.125% bonus mana) ÷ (1 − 0.00125% mana))% maximum mana.

Strategy

• Seraph's Embrace has great synergy with a Rabadon's Deathcap, as it increases ability power by 35%. This means that whenever your mana is increased, the Seraph's Embrace will increase your ability power, and then the Rabadon's Deathcap will increase it again due to the 35% increased ability power passive.
  • This is equal to 6.75% of the holder bonus mana.
