Official Effects

UNIQUE - THORNS: When struck by an attack, deal 20 + 6% Bonus Armor + 1% Bonus Health magic damage to the attacker.

UNIQUE - ENTWINE: Apply Grievous Wounds to enemy champions for 3s when struck by their attacks or when dealing damage to them.

When Should You Build Thornmail?

Build Thornmail when you need high Armor and reliable Grievous Wounds from damaging enemies or being attacked by them.

Best on: Tanks and durable frontliners that enemy basic attackers cannot simply ignore.
Good against: Strong against healing auto-attackers, sustain fighters, and physical teams; weak when the main healer attacks someone else or deals mostly magic damage.
When to buy it: Buy Bramble Vest early when needed, then usually finish Thornmail second to fourth once Armor and stronger anti-heal justify the upgrade.

Gold Efficiency Breakdown

A theoretical stat comparison priced from Wild Rift base items. Stats without a basic-item anchor use the source's fixed estimates; slow resistance, damage effects, shields, actives, and other utility remain unpriced. Use this to compare similar items, not as a complete measure of in-game power.
