 | Taric - the Gem KnightPrimary: Support / Secondary: Fighter here is a form of magic unknown to many Runeterrans and discredited by the few who are even aware of its existence. It is the magic of the earth, drawing power from the resonance of crystals and gems. Taric, the Gem Knight, is Runeterra's sole practitioner of this form of magic, having been erratically summoned to Runeterra from a faraway world. Back home, Taric's father was a distinguished healer in their home city. Taric was always interested in his father's pursuits, even from a young age. Despite his burgeoning understanding of herbs, plants, and animal medicines, it was the power of gems that most fascinated the growing boy. It wasn't long before Taric had exhausted his father's coveted library and set out on a path of his own. He wanted to help the people, but not by simply salving their wounds and curing their woes. He wasn't to be a healer, but a defender - one who used the power of earth to preserve and protect. Cost: 1350 IP or 585 RP |

★ General Strategy
✔ Playing as
- If Taric targets himself with Imbue, he'll be healed for more. As a result, he's very effective at tanking turrets.
- Sometimes it's better to not use Shatter and keep the self Armor bonus.
✗ Playing against
- Taric has very high armor due to his Shatter ability, and therefore casters are able to damage him much easier than physical fighters.
- Make note of what summoner spells Taric has. If he has Clarity, it might be futile to harass him with spells early.
