Recipe Edit

• Archangel's Staff (2700g)
  • Tear of the Goddess (700g)
    • Sapphire Crystal (400g)
    • Faerie Charm (180g)
    • 120g

Cost Analysis Edit

Base Gold Value

• 1000 mana = 2000g
• 60 + 30 ability power = 1958g
• 10 mana regeneration = 600g
  • Total Gold Value = 4558g

Passive Gold Value

• 30 ability power (for every 1000 mana) = 653g

Gold Efficiency

• Seraph's Embrace is gold efficient even without the activate.

Notes Edit

• By itself, Seraph's Embrace grants 90 AP.
• If you own both Archangel's Staff and Manamune before reaching 750 bonus mana, Archangel's Staff takes priority and will transform into Seraph's Embrace.
  • The transformation drains Mana Charge, leaving the remaining Manamune on 0 bonus mana. This can be recharged, and will transform into Muramana upon completion.
  • It is possible to charge a third Tear of the Goddess for a further 750 bonus mana. Note that the Awe and Insight passives of Archangel's and Manamune, and the transformation passives are unique and so further purchases won't provide anything beyond the base stats.
• To work out whether this item or a Rabadon's Deathcap would grant you more AP, you need to look at your AP and mana stats prior to the purchase. Both give the same AP when 0.25AP + 150 = 0.03(Mana + 1,000) + 60. (This is assuming that the Rabadon's Deathcap would be your first, and that you would thus be getting the extra benefit from the unique passive.) In other words, for the Seraph's Embrace to give more AP, your mana prior to building it must be at least 8.3...AP + 2,000.
  • This means that, purely from an AP perspective, the first Rabadon's Deathcap is almost always preferable. Take the case of Janna, the champion with the highest base mana in the game. A decent build for maxmizing her AP without getting particularly ridiculous includes the Rod of Ages, the Mejai's Soulstealer and the Deathfire Grasp. These alone give her 540AP (with 10 stacks on the Rod of Ages and 20 stacks on the Mejai's Soulstealer), meaning she needs 4,500 mana for the Seraph's Embrace to give her more AP than the Rabadon's Deathcap. Her base mana at level 18 is 1,454; the Rod of Ages gives her another 650 mana, for a total of 2,104. This total is far short of the total she needs for the Seraph's Embrace to grant more AP.
• Manaless champions may charge the Tear of the Goddess, Manamune and Archangel's Staff to get Muramana and Seraph's Embrace. However, they won't get any bonuses of Muramana's Awe and toggle, as well as Seraph's Embrace's Insight and Mana Shield.
