[Gameplay] Jarvan IV's Auto-Attacks are Still Not Animating

OutlookGrim·Sep 9, 2015·3 votes·684 views

While playing as Jarvan IV, I will often have games where a decent amount his auto-attacks will not animate (sometimes none of his auto-attacks animate). The damage is being dealt and you can hear the hit, but Jarvan is just standing there.

On some games I do not seem to have any problems (or at least very few), but I'm having problems with every skin I own (Default, Warring Kingdoms, Darkforge).

My friends saw this happening to me in-game as well.

I linked a video of it to this post. That is what happened for every auto-attack that game.

I've also had cases of his passive not being applied but don't have a video of this yet. Some games I don't see it, others I do. I'll try to record it the next time it happens.

Thanks!

I just experienced this exact issue in my last game, not a single auto-attack in the entire match was animated. I'm not sure about his passive applying, I was paying too much attention to my wonky autos.

In addition to this bug, about 1/3 of my move commands weren't registering (I'm pretty sure this is completely unrelated, just strange that they occurred together so I thought I would mention it.)

If this is really a consistent issue, I really hope Riot resolves it soon. Jarvan IV is one of my favorite champions but this auto bug really screws with my head while playing him. Takes a lot of the fun out of the gameplay.

Yeah, I'm usually way too distracted by my auto-attacks not animating to pay too much attention to his passive.

I love Jarvan, but I haven't touched him since that game I've recorded because it REALLY bugs me that I can't see his attacks. I did find a post by Riot saying they were going to look into Jarvan in the next patch or two and see if they can figure out what's up. I hope it's this patch so I might get to see him played during Worlds :/

I had a game with a J4 who could not get his passive to work. It may not seem like a big deal, but it really hurt the game.

Maybe ping lags or something like this ?

I'm not sure, I've been having these problems for over a month and many people are experiencing the same thing. As far as I know, it's only Jarvan. My ping has been consistently under 28 since the move to Chicago a few weeks ago, and was about 72ish before the move. My connections have always been pretty steady.

The game I recorded is probably the worst one I've experienced as far as auto-attacks not animating, but I see that problem all the time. I was using the Warring Kingdoms skin since I seemed to have the best luck with it, even though I prefer the Darkforge skin. Apparently it doesn't matter which skin you use.
