Hogwarts Posted December 29, 2012 Report Share Posted December 29, 2012 any one else think electric mantle is op? When you have in house games and 5 players from the same team are buying electric mantles, ....... even the dps carry and 3- 4 players from the your own team is buying it.. also getting stunned twice in a team fight from the same hero is a little ridiculous . Tanks are so troll, all they need to do is spend the 3200 for an electric and they cant die. if there ganked by a dps, the dps is stunned and the tank runs, if the tank is extremely out of position it doesn't matter the dps carry can not catch and kill the tank or any hero for that matter due to the stun its a 100% escape . and forget playing kerry as a dps carry, she all ready has mobility issues but her bounces proc mantle as well, so your just flobed period in team fights getting stuned left and right. Electric mantle procs cain and stuns cain in his ult before the projectile even hits, cains ult is useless in a lot of situations and if that person has an electric is just crap. not to mention the garamond bug with electric mantle " not sure if this has been fixed but just putting it up there" the bug where the scv's proc the mantle stuns over and over Electric mantle was fine when it was an active with a 20 second cool down, but this newer noob friendly mantle is complete crap, the same with paralax it needs to be changed, the new meta of where 8/10 players in an IH game buy it is simply ridiculous the item its a hard counter to AA heros but it also counters spell caster pretty significantly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lOvOl Posted December 29, 2012 Report Share Posted December 29, 2012 Good item not but OP with a 12 second cooldown. If a whole team is rushing electric mantle and barbed and you are an AA hero, you just rush sliptyde scythe or if you are a non-AA hero you get some other spell resist item like parallax or spell buffer. Same thing goes if you see the enemy team putting on barbed plating because if they are not doing any physical damage and relying on feedback items like electric mantle and barbed, all you need is solid spell resist and sustain and they can't do jack squat to you. BTW, what is your BNET handle Hogwarts? Is it MasterLaw, cause if it is ROFL! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then they must be really terrible! Mantle gives you just 1 second stun, not even enough to get out of range. It does not that much damage and they kill you and leech to full in 2 more seconds... Furthermore, a teamfight is mostly over in less then 12 seconds, there is no "chain-stun", lol. Electric Mantle is a good item for example to give your team time to click on this shapstepping Shadow (if he doesn't activate his Ulti).

doxthefox Posted December 31, 2012 Report Share Posted December 31, 2012 Melee characters attempts to harass ADC in lane --> ADC leaches back everything in seconds and continues to farms freely --> Melee/tank struggles to farm throughout the game and finally gets Electric Mantle --> ADC gets stunned and raped after 45 minutes of free farming.

Doom Posted December 31, 2012 Report Share Posted December 31, 2012 Lets do that with parallax too so that taser again becomes the one item to rule them all. It still is..... just shares the role now with Shadowmourne. @ topic: remove the cooldown reduction, and the spell resist, buff the str, make unique an active with ~18 seconds, add in a bit of armor.
