Taric, the Shield of Valoran, is a melee support and tank champion. In fights Taric is a very durable champion who deals magic damage while supporting the team, with healing and shields in the kit. Here are the augments Taric players take most, the Prismatic items worth grabbing and the core build on patch 26.20.
Requirement: Heal or prevent 2,500 damage to allies. Reward: Gain 100% Attack Speed, and your Attacks deal additional magic damage equal to 450% Heal/Shield Power.
Starlight's Touch (Q) heals and the Bastion (W) shield complete the quest, then the Attack Speed and magic damage turn your Bravado (passive) empowered attacks into real damage.
Healing or Shielding an ally grants you permanent Cursed Power. Gain Ability Haste based on your Cursed Power.
Starlight's Touch (Q) and the Bastion (W) shield build Cursed Power fast, and the Ability Haste lets you cast more often, triggering Bravado (passive) and Dazzle (E) more.
Gain 20% Heal and Shield Power.
Your Starlight's Touch (Q) heal and Bastion (W) shield both scale with Heal and Shield Power, and Bastion lets Q cast from your linked ally too.
