Does anyone else feel like universal supports are a bit too strong at trading autos in lane?
With 2 circlets 3 branches (Or alternatively, five branches for 3 less damage, but more regen items.)
This is 12.6 dmg in stats.
For mono stat heroes the same items provide 7 dmg in stats.
– venomancer : 59 dmg. (3.24 dmg/lv)
– Mirana : 60 dmg. (3.24 dmg/lv)
– Dazzle : 63 dmg. (Or, 58 dmg with 4 branches blightstone) (3.54 dmg/lv)
– Windranger : 58 dmg. (3.72 dmg/lv)
– Dark willow : 61 dmg (and fast BAT) (3.54 dmg/lv)

Note: These are level 1 stats, these heroes will gain a lot more damage with each level and just about any item that has stats.

With regen being more limited and lotuses existing, it feels like it's totally fine to go for heavy harrass in lane against some poor mono stat hero that will have 2-6 less damage per auto attack (aka 5-12% less damage or so). It feels awful to go against and far too lame of a way to loose a lane too. I've certainly been going for universal supports because of it.
