League-of-legends – Do “Gold per 10 seconds” items stack

league-of-legends

Often on support champions, the ones that don't farm, gold per 10 second items are seen. Heart of gold, philosopher's stone, and even sometimes Kage's lucky pick. They all have the unique passive of a bonus 5 gold per 10 seconds.

Do gold per 10 items stack with each other? I was messing around in a custom with friends and realized that multiple Heart of Golds do not stack with each other. I also know that items like Archangel Staff do not stack with items with the same passive such as Manamune or Sapphire Crystal. Does the common combination of Philosopher's Stone and Heart of Gold actually increase my gold intake, or am I burning my money?

Best Answer

Gold per 10 items stack with each other, however, the same gold per 10 item does not stack with itself. So, you can have a philosopher's stone and a heart of gold, and you will now have 10 gold per 10 seconds. You will only get 5 gold per 10 if you have two philosopher's stones.

Two gold per 10 items will not burn your income, especially when you got both of the gold per 10 items early on, so their effects last for a longer duration until you upgrade one of them such as the philosopher stone -> shurelia's reverie.

League-of-legends – choose any items and have their effects stack

You can stack items, however any unique properties will only apply once. Some stats stack differently than others (math) but they ultimately do stack.

For example, Madred's Bloodrazor provides the following:

+30 Attack Damage
+40% Attack Speed
+25 Armor

UNIQUE - On hit, deals Magic Damage equal to 4% of the target's maximum Health.

Buying more than one of these will give you the additional attack damage, attack speed and armor, but not an additional unique effect (4% of target's health per hit).

You can have more than one unique effect, but you may only have one of each unique effect. There are no items that cancel each other out.

League-of-legends – Do unique passive buffs from different items stack

Boots are a specific case. You can't have more than one movement buff from any kinds of boots at all.

As for other items with UNIQUE passives, as long as you don't have the exact same item, they all stack on top of each other.

Apparently, there are other exceptions as well. From the wiki:

Unique effects that do not cumulate among differents items include Movement Speed effects from boots (only the best effect applies), proc effect of Sheen, Lich Bane and Trinity Force, and the mana gained from Tear of the Goddess, Manamune and Archangel's Staff.
