Gold efficiency
| Stat | Amount | Gold per point | Gold value |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ability Power | 70 | 20 g | 1400 g |
| Health | 350 | 2.67 g | 933 g |
| Ability Haste | 15 | 50 g | 750 g |
| Total stat value | 3083 g |
Gold efficiency = stat value ÷ item cost = 3083 ÷ 3100 = 99%. The gold per point comes from basic items of the same patch (for example, Long Sword: 35 g per Attack Damage). Passives and actives are not counted.

Riftmaker costs 3,100 gold in patch 26.22 and gives 70 Ability Power, 350 Health and 15 Ability Haste, an Ability Power item for bruisers in League of Legends. Void Corruption ramps your damage the longer you fight champions and adds Omnivamp at full strength, while Void Infusion turns 2% of your bonus Health into Ability Power.
How does Void Corruption work?
It rewards staying in the fight. For each second you’re in combat with enemy champions, you deal 2% bonus damage, stacking up to 8%. Once it’s maxed out, you also gain Omnivamp, which heals you for part of the damage you deal (from spells and attacks alike).
So the first couple of seconds feel normal, and then everything you cast hits harder and heals you. Riot’s data text leaves out the Omnivamp number, so check the client tooltip for that one.
The catch? Short trades don’t get the full effect. Poke and leave after one spell, and Void Corruption has barely started stacking by the time you walk back to lane, which is why the item suits champions who commit to fights.
What does Void Infusion add?
A little extra Ability Power from Health. 2% of your bonus Health becomes Ability Power, so the 350 Health on Riftmaker already pays back a few points, and every other Health item you buy adds more. Small on its own, honestly. It matters most on champions who build two or three Health items anyway, like Ability Power fighters in top lane and tanky junglers.
Is Riftmaker gold efficient?
Close to even, at 99%: 3,083 gold of stats for a 3,100 gold price.
That breaks down to 70 Ability Power for 1,400 gold, 350 Health for 933 gold (2.67 gold per point) and 15 Ability Haste for 750. Neither passive is in that number, and in a long fight both of them do a lot of work, so the real value sits higher than the table suggests (how much higher depends on how long your fights last).
Who should build it?
Champions who deal magic damage and want to fight for a long time: Ability Power bruisers, drain tanks, junglers who stay in the middle of a skirmish. Thing is, they all need durability and damage at once, and the Omnivamp keeps them alive while they do it.
Burst mages get less out of it. If your whole combo lands in one second, Void Corruption never ramps up, and items like Rabadon’s Deathcap give more damage right away. Want a similar battle mage option with more speed and haste? Cosmic Drive is the usual comparison.
What does it build from?
Haunting Guise (1,300 gold) and Fiendish Codex (850 gold), plus a 950 gold combine. Haunting Guise is the bigger piece and gives Health with Ability Power, which is why most players grab it first. Nothing builds out of the finished item.
How has Riftmaker changed?
It shows up in Riot’s data from patch 10.23. The early changes cut the Omnivamp, and the later ones moved Ability Power and price back and forth:
- Patch 11.3: Health 150 → 300, Omnivamp 15% → 8%, effect text changed.
- Patch 12.10: Omnivamp 8% → 7%.
- Patch 14.1: Health 300 → 350, Ability Power 70 → 80, price down from 3,200 to 3,000 gold.
- Patch 14.2: cost 3,000 → 3,100 gold.
- Patch 14.19: Ability Power 80 → 70.
Funny enough, that’s a full circle: 70 again, as after 12.11. For the complete record see the table above; our LoL items database lists the patch changes of each other item too.
When does it fit your build?
When fights last long and you’re in the middle of them. In practice, it’s often a first item for Ability Power fighters and a second one for drain tanks after a Health item. Not sure which group your champion belongs to? Our guide to LoL roles sorts champions by what they do in a game, and the ones who brawl in melee range are the natural Riftmaker buyers.
