Abilities

Edit

Bravado

Bravado

Innate: After casting an ability, Taric's next two basic attacks within 4 seconds gain  100% total attack speed, each dealing 25 − 93 (based on level) (+ 15% bonus armor) bonus magic damage and reducing the  cooldowns of his basic abilities by 1 second, as well as refreshing Bravado's duration on the first attack.

• The bonus damage will not apply against structures.
• Bravado can be dodged and blocked but it cannot miss if Taric is blinded. The cooldown reduction cannot be negated in any cases.

Edit

Starlight's Touch

Starlight's Touch
EFFECT RADIUS:	325
CAST TIME:	0.25
COST:	70 / 75 / 80 / 85 / 90
COOLDOWN:	3
RECHARGE:	15

Passive: Taric stores a charge of Starlight's Touch periodically, up to a maximum at once. Bravado's empowered attacks grant one charge.

Maximum Charges: 1 / 2 / 3 / 4 / 5

Active: Taric heals himself and all nearby allied champions for 30 (+ 20% AP) (+ 1% of Taric's maximum health) per stored charge at the time of cast, up to a maximum of 150 (+ 100% AP) (+ 5% of Taric's maximum health) at 5 charges.

Info

• The healing will apply heal effects (such as Summon Aery) prioritizing targets in Taric's circle, based on proximity to him, then in the Bastioned ally's circle, based on proximity to that ally (including it).

Edit

Bastion

Bastion
TARGET RANGE:	800
TETHER RADIUS:	1300
CAST TIME:	0.25
COST:	60
COOLDOWN:	15

Passive: Taric gains  bonus armor and forms a tether between him and the ally bound by Bastion. While the tether persists, the ally also gains the bonus armor and Taric's abilities are mimicked to them, though the effects do not stack.

Bonus Armor: 10 / 11 / 12 / 13 / 14% of Taric's armor

Active: Taric shields himself and the target allied champion for 2.5 seconds, binding them with Bastion.

Shield Strength: 8 / 9 / 10 / 11 / 12% of target's maximum health

Taric can self-cast to shield himself; if he is untethered, this will instead target the nearest ally. Only one ally can be bound at a time, and selecting a new ally overrides the previous bind.

• The mimicked abilities will still complete even if Taric dies or leaves range.
• Abilities are not mimicked to the bound ally if they are vanished via Alpha Strike, Hallucinate, Rappel, or Void Rush.
  • Mimicked abilities will also cancel if they vanish as above.

Map-Specific Differences

Ultra Rapid Fire differences ^edit

• Shield ratios halved.

Dazzle

Dazzle

CAST TIME:	0.25
COST:	100
COOLDOWN:	180 / 150 / 120

   "Embrace the cosmos."

Info

• Cosmic Radiance has no effect on untargetable allies.
  • It will affect the primary unit (the one the star is falling down on) even if they are untargetable.
