Mercury boots 35% + Max stack hunter titan 15% = 50%.

That's the maximum you could stack normally in a champion with no tenacity bonus. This is alright and checks out in the stats page.

Sterak's gives you 30% when you're low on HP, so it should be 80% in that situation, right? But then i checked the stats page in one game while i had the lifeline passive on, and it was only 60%.

Why is that?

I'm no expert, but I think the logic behind it is that if tenacity goes past a certain point it can render a lot of the cc skills in the game functionally useless.

And that's a BIG thing considering how many chmapions rely on CC for pretty much anything. Not to mention all the champs that you have to counter through CC.

Imagine you're Veigar and a fed ass Sett is coming towards you with enough tenacity to go past your stun circle before your second skill lands. Doesn't seem exactly fair, does it now?

Either way, that's just my first guess.

Ya, we do have a limit for these reasons. We don't want to invalidate CC by driving Tenacity too high.
