Intro

Bacchus's main role is tanking, now there are some who go straight damage but i recommend this build because it includes Sustain/defense and Damage, making you impossible to ignore in end game. So if u like a God who takes massive damage and deals it back then Bacchus might be for you

Bacchus Game strategy

As Bacchus early game should always be played defensive for build up but keeping yourself smashed is key to your role as "Tank"(Gives you +14% Damage Reduction)and because it stacks with the 5% Damage Reduction that comes with your "Plated Greaves", so start drinking as soon as the game starts. Even though I said to play defensive, don't be afraid to belly into the enemy/minions because remember your trying to "Support". Once you get "Polynomicon", that's where your real damage starts. Then once u have the rod your attacks after each spell become "Dangerous".

Blue Buff is A MUST!

The Blue Buff is extremely Critical to you keeping/getting yourself smashed and able to really Tank hard right from the start/beginning of the game and helps you for-fill your role as "Support tank" and initiator.

SO, ALWAYS ASK FOR BLUE BUFF!!!!!!!

I don't get why you think Bacchus would be able to take lots of damage with this build. You take zero health or physical defense items early game except for the Plated Greaves which aren't a good choice on Bacchus anyway because of his passive. Damage reduction is multiplicative, not additive so you only get like 3% from Plated Greaves. Meditation and Shard Of Restoration aren't necessary on Bacchus in conquest, it's easy to keep your mana and health up with potions so you can get Eye of Providence and Hand of the Gods instead.

I would add explanations as to why you take these items and some bb coding to make the guide easier to read. As of now, it seems rushed and not well thought over. Bacchus is a tank, if this is a tank build, he doesn't need so much damage. I recommend you put some more time in playing Bacchus and rethink your guide.

Good guide, but it really was hard to read the build, because it was split up.
