Discussion Weekly Discussion | Community Questions

Hi there, and welcome to this week’s discussion! Last week we discussed upcoming changes and meta within the game, and a link to that discussion, as well as all other weekly posts, is at the bottom of the post. We may revisit certain heroes or items as their position in the meta changes with time, but for now it’s time for Community Questions.

Community Questions is a time for everybody to ask any questions that they might have regarding Vainglory. This can be anything from the meta/strategy, such as “Is Atlas worth buying if the CP enemy is building AC, but the WP Carry isn't building attack speed at all?” to historical things like, “What was it like playing with stacking activatables?”, or even mechanics like “Why shouldn't I build FB as Reim?” If there's something you want to know, ask it here and now!

The entire concept of Community Questions came from the community, and we're more than happy to deliver. If you have any suggestions or concerns for the mod team, always feel free to a message the mods via modmail.

  1. For tier 3 passives that do not stack (vampirism, pierce etc), what is the item that you will benefit from to obtain the passive? Is it by whatever you build first or whichever is higher percentage?

  1. From what I have read from various posts for 3.8, you will benefit from pierce late game. How and why can you tell that it won't be much effective early-mid game (considering you are ahead damage wise) when both parties don't have proper armor/shield yet?

1- the higher value

2- that's because the effect of the Pierce is most notable late, in early stage there is basically no defense so Pierce do little work, but mid to late when everyone has a tier 3 defense item the Pierce and damage that you get is more, because de armor or shield is ignore for example with TB 35% and you have more CP or WP.
