Why is Blood of The Karui worth more than 1 alch?

Is there something I need to know?

Because it still looks like garbage and someone is arguing with me on reddit claiming it heals over 3k life per 0.2 sec.

Why are you stressing over 1 alch?

because people will pay it i reckon

My issue is I don't understand why some people think it is good, nothing changed about it since last league when it was buffed.

yeah nothing apart from health builds being popular again


Also the rarity of it, its a league specific and still early days in the league while alot are still gearing up

blood of the karui is an amazing flask because of the fact that no matter what it has a component that will always scale with your hit points .

this doesnt seem important to some one with 5k hp or even 6k hp.


but lets say you are a low regen build in lab and are in a safe spot .. well blood will get you to full . garunteed. that kind of consistency paired with a very good base regen rate

makes it a solid flask no matter what from a pure hp regen stand pt. but there is also a niche when you have a truely monstrous hp pool


lets say you are umbilicus with a minion that has 30000 hp. that flask will heal 30000 hp for that minion.


plus you can scale that upfront regen with blood grip and belly of the beast for some truly absurd healing

is it the greatest thing ever. no , like most unique items they have niche appeal . but holy fuck that niche is incredible when you find it

Ah the minion belt interaction is interesting, but if I wanted a flaks, that scales with my hitpoints I would use forbidden taste.

Other than this a eternal life flask with inc recovery heals you for almost the same amount and has 3 charges + a utility mo.

I find the maxhp heal unique property on the karui flask way too unreliable, firt because it is burst or burst-like degen are the things that kill you, second because if you accidentally heal for your maxhp before the flask wears off, then that turns off the flask, that is how life flasks work.
