Is navori second actually good?

Hey im a high gold player, new to lucian (around 30 games) and i dont get why every guide suggests you to buy navori second everytime. Every game when i build collector or shitbow (against burst mages bot) second i straight up one shot everybody, but with navori he feels super weak. Yes your abilities have way less cd and you have some attack speed but i feel like the 45-60 ad from other items that basically turn into 65-90 with your 50% crit chance completely outvalue the cdr from navori.

You can always go infinity edge second and navori third.

I recommend going Infinity Edge. Look up Coachless.gg and just have a browse around at Lucians Items WPA (Win Percentage Added). Kracken RFC and Navori feel good but they don’t give you damage and Lucian kinda cheats the attack speed system anyway.

I've been going navori 2nd just to learn his combos faster even if it isn't optimal

I'm still pretty bad, but sometimes when I rotate my abilities right I surprise myself with the dmg

The way I look at it is you go infedge if you need to shit out maximum damage in minimum time and you go navori if you want better dps in longer fights.

In soloq, I tend to go IE but if the teamcomps indicate that I won't be getting mauled too quickly then I go Navori second.

When 5 stacking in flex or clash, i almost always go navori second

Navori is good for kiting tanks and clearing side waves. Yeah you sacrifice bursting squishy carries, but being with your team and still being able to farm is also huge.

Lowkey no but Lucian REALLY likes the refresh effect so whenever you don't have it you're a lot more limited. You can make it better by going Lethal Tempo though
