Effects[]
Damaging attacks and abilities grant 2-6 adaptive force (levels 1-18) for 2 seconds (8 seconds for melee), stacking up to 5 times to a max of 10-30. At 5 stacks, 8% of your damage against champions is converted to true damage and you heal for that amount.
Damage-over-time effects and ongoing sources of damage (ex. Yorick's Maiden of the Mist) can grant one stack every 5 seconds
Patch History[]
True damage and healing decreased.
We hear you. It's too strong, so we're nerfing it.
We hotfixed Conqueror in the middle of the last patch, decreasing the ranged stack duration and the number of adaptive force per stack. But it's still too strong, especially in the mid to late game . With its new stacking model, champions gain stats leading up to the proc and late game scenarios actually trigger it faster than the previous iterations of Conqueror. We're pulling out some of Conqueror's late game strength while retaining the more core true damage and healing conversion.
| ADAPTIVE FORCE : | [2-10 per stack (10-50 at max stacks)] | |
| ⇒ | 2-6 per stack (10-30 at max stacks) |
Mid-Patch 9.4 Updates
(Reminder: These have been live for a while already.)
| ADAPTIVE FORCE : | [3-15 per stack (max 15-75)] | |
| ⇒ | 2-10 per stack (max 10-50). This change is overwritten by the line above. |
Patch 9.4
Grants stacking adaptive force on damaging enemy champions. At max stacks, converts a portion of damage vs champions to true damage and heals for that amount.
Conqueror was designed to help fighters in extended combat, but it offers too much immediate power since users can bypass its initial delay—the window where opponents should have the upper hand—by staying in combat against minions so Conqueror is prepped at all times. We're removing this workaround, meaning users will actually have to grapple with its ramp-up. They now gain Conqueror's bonus damage steadily over their first few hits in combat, so they won't be completely helpless when a fight breaks out. (Note: Conqueror gives adaptive force instead of attack damage now. Go wild, AP champs.) In terms of Conqueror's "unlocked" state, we've turned half of its true damage conversion into healing. This gives tanks, who were previously melted by the conversion, a reasonable shot at standing against Conqueror champs while still giving fighters a tool to avoid being ground down in teamfights before reaching the enemy backline.
v8.14
Bonus attack damage decreased.
Conqueror has been crowding out other keystone options for fighters, as well as room for non-fighter champions in top lane. Reducing some of its laning strength should give other keystones (and champions) more ability to fight back.
v8.6
New Precision keystone.
We wanted to introduce a keystone for champions who excel in long, drawn-out fights—especially melee champions.
