Gangplank, the Saltwater Scourge, is a melee fighter champion. In fights Gangplank is a fragile champion who deals physical damage in bursts, with healing in the kit. Here are the augments Gangplank players take most, the Prismatic items worth grabbing and the core build on patch 26.20.
Gain 15% Armor Penetration and Magic Penetration.
The Armor Penetration boosts the physical damage of Parrrley (Q) and Powder Keg (E), while the Magic Penetration strengthens Cannon Barrage (R).
Your Abilities can Critically Strike. Gain Crit Chance.
Parrrley (Q) can already critically strike and Powder Keg (E) explodes with your attack's damage, so the extra Crit Chance makes both hit harder more often.
Gain the First Strike and Dark Harvest Keystone Runes.
Opening a fight with Parrrley (Q) or a Powder Keg (E) triggers First Strike's bonus damage, and your keg explosions on low-Health enemies trigger Dark Harvest.
