Notes[]

  • The quest reward can only be obtained after being out-of-combat for 5 seconds.
  • If you damage an enemy champion or structure 3 times every 30 seconds, Tribute grants 15 gold per 10 seconds.
    • Plus 2 gold per 10 seconds from the item, you can receive a total of 17 gold per 10 seconds.
  • Area of effect abilities will use one charge per enemy champion hit.
  • On-hit effects will not trigger Tribute (although the triggering attack can).
  • Damage over time abilities will trigger the passive once per instance of damage.
  • Killing a minion and damaging an enemy at the same time will put Tribute on cooldown without activating.

Patch History[]

v8.2

Removed Sightstone. Removed tier 3 support items.

List of Removed Items


v7.10

The whole point of the lockout on Spellthief’s Edge is to prevent champions from both farming waves and using the gold item - at least without some tradeoff. However, it was also punishing supports too harshly when they happened to kill a minion while poking. We’re shifting the mechanic so that minion kills may harm your overall Tribute output, but won’t stop you from using any Tribute stacks you already had.
Tribute passive

MINION PENALTY : Killing a minion [disables Tribute procs] ⇒ [pauses Tribute stack generation] for 6 seconds per minion slain


v7.9

Most mage supports already churn out pretty decent damage (looking at you, Zyra/Brand), so rather than give them more damage as a quest reward, we wanted to give them something that feels distinct from the mid lane experience. Extra mobility gives them a tool to dance in and out of fights, giving them a unique reason to be played as supports, rather than mid laners.
Quest rewards

QUEST : Complete Spellthief’s Edge’s quest by earning 650 gold through the Tribute passive and upgrading to Frostfang or higher (progress preserved through item upgrades)
GOTTA GO FAST : Tribute is upgraded to Queen’s Tribute on quest completion, causing procs to grant a short burst of movement speed

Tribute mechanics

DELIBERATION : Tribute charges can only proc once every 1.25 seconds
MINION PENALTY : Last-hitting minions disables Tribute for [12 seconds, refreshing with subsequent minion kills] ⇒ 6 seconds, stacking per minion kill. (Reminder: this penalty only affects Spellthief’s Edge and Frostfang)

Frostfang

BASE MANA REGEN : [75%] ⇒ 50%
ABILITY POWER : [15] ⇒ 20

Frost Queen's Claim

BASE MANA REGEN : [75%] ⇒ 50%
ABILITY POWER : [50] ⇒ 60

Eye of the Watchers

BASE MANA REGEN : [100%] ⇒ 50%
ABILITY POWER : [25] ⇒ 35


v6.13
Killing pets no longer puts Tribute on cooldown.

Spellthief’s Edge offers you a tradeoff: don’t farm and you can build up gold by trading with your opponents. Much like with Relic Shield, pets were disrupting Spellthief’s tradeoff as well.

TRIFLING TRIBUTE REJECTED : The Tribute passive is no longer put on cooldown when killing enemy pets (ex. Zyra plants)


v6.9
Less mana regeneration.

Regeneration overall is

MANA REGENERATION : [100%] ⇒ 75%

MANA REGENERATION : [100%] ⇒ 75%


v6.2
Who you gonna call?

Making the Rift a less spooky place, one patch at a time. The short context here is we initially dumped all of our investigation eggs into the Frost Queen's Claim basket, but have since expanded to the two item cost reductions below. Raising the cooldown, however, encourages more careful use of the active rather than "yes."

ACTIVE COOLDOWN : [60 seconds] ⇒ 90 seconds
SPOOKY SPRINTING : Ghosts no longer move slightly faster when they can see their target.


v6.1
Less mana regen. Slow now scales with distance.

Ah, Frost Queen's Claim. Even if you've never bought it, you've seen it - and the army of ghosts slowing you from across the universe. While potent as a form of vision control and a playmaker for spellcasting supports, this raw stat efficiency combined with crowd control made it far more ubiquitous than is healthy (when you start to see champions like Tank Maokai buying this, you know something's up). Cutting FQC's efficiency and impairing its use as a close-range sticking/peeling tool requires more pre-meditation on the part of it's user to get the same level of crowd control. We'll continue assessing if we need to tone down that spooky.

MANA REGENERATION : [150%] ⇒ 100%
who you gonna catch : Slow duration now scales between 2 and 5 seconds based on distance traveled
spooky scary : Ghosts get progressively more spooky as they travel


v5.22

TOTAL cost : 2200 gold (unchanged)
BASE mana REGEN : [50%] ⇒ 150%
TRIBUTE GOLD : [10 gold on damage/attack on a champion or structure] ⇒ 15 gold on damage/attack on a champion or structure
UNIQUE active Arctic Embrace no longer exists
UNIQUE active Summons 2 icy ghosts for 6 seconds that seek out nearby enemy champions. Ghosts reveal enemies on contact and reduce their movement speed by 40% for 4 seconds (60 second cooldown)
