Hi,

It's an ingame bug with lux ultimate, who don't hit the target, even if the target is in the ultimate hitbox. Got this serveral time, really annoying. Got a few video to prove it, it's an old bug. Must be fixed please ! : 2012 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IpNbxbtF3Yg 2013 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gtWVknucOns 2013 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EWeCLYCVhtE 2013 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z14HpeG5Mlw 2014 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1CJb1ROpcHc http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5RsCI7g_adA

(sorry for the bad english ^^)

It isn't a bug. Because of the view of the game is tilted, the actual hitbox of the skill is several units above (relative to the bottom of the screen) where the animation appears to be; you'll notice in everyone of those videos the target is below the skillshot. This, however, also works in reverse as well, E.I. the skill will hit targets several units above where the skill appears to be; I've seen plenty of times where the animation was far enough below a target that they weren't even touching but the target still took damage.

This happens to a lot of skills actually, like Morg binding, thresh hook, blitz grab and nidalee spear, it's just less obvious.

TL;DR: it ain't a bug, The game's view is just screwed up

The point is, it s almost the only champ who get those skillshot not that accurate cause of the view. And in some of the video, u can see that the cursor was on the target, aiming right, the target isnt moving out enought, or stay in the middle, and still dont get the damage. I'm sure there is a way to fix it. Cursor aiming right, cursor on target, target isnt moving, target dont get any damage ? Since the cursor was on it, view thing or not, it MUST hit. The cursor is lying so ?

Edit for pierreluc : those video come from several guys, happen in my comouter, friends computer, a random mate...

I play / played a lot of Lux

The hitbox is just not great. Its deceptive at best.

I will point out in some of those though, lux is being displaced before her ult deals damage, which if I remember correctly it also displaces the hit box (at least it used to) so in the case where she was ulting gragas, but got hit with his ult, she is displaced, the hitbox is displaced, no damage is dealt.

Same thing for the Vi ult, she is being displaced before the ult damage is applied. I thought that they fixed this...but I could be wrong.

Mostly what people said about camera view is accurate too. On blue side you have to have the target below the line (i think) and on purple side you want them above the line.
