[GAMEPLAY] Elixir of Iron Duration Icon Running during Death Timer/Respawn Wait

Playing as Malphite in a Dynamic Queue Draft game. Bought an Elixir of Iron during the death timer with 6 items in inventory. Noticed that the duration indicator icon was running before I respawned at fountain. This occurred once more later in the game when I bought another Elixir of Iron to refresh the timer I had on an Elixir of Iron I had active.

Item Build at Time of 1st Occurrence of Bug: Ninja Tabi (with Distortion), Sunfire Cape, Frozen Heart, Spirit Visage, chain vest, cloth armor. Item Build at Time of 2nd Occurence of Bug: Ninja Tabi (with Distortion), Sunfire Cape, Frozen Heart, Spirit Visage, Thornmail, Seeker's Armguard

Not sure if it is a visual bug or if the timer is actually running. Did not wait for the timer to run out before buying another elixir to test.

Also unsure if:

  • will occur if bought with less than six items and then consumed
  • occurs only with Elixir of Iron
  • occurs only with Malphite

Follow-up:

Just played a custom game as Malphite recreating w/ same item build. duration icon again ran during the death timer/respawn wait. Also let the timer run out, the elixir ended about 20s earlier than it was supposed to (Elixir bought at 29:30, effect ended at 33:10). Also tested with Elixir of Sorcery

Elixir of Sorcery also had the indicator running, but it seemed to last about 1 minute longer than supposed to (Bought 40:08, effect wore off 44:08); I took screenshots to log the time stamps.

Not sure if it is a visual bug or if the timer is actually running. Did not wait for the timer to run out before buying another elixir to test.

Also unsure if:

  • will occur if bought with less than six items and then consumed
  • occurs only with Elixir of Iron
  • occurs only with Malphite

Conclusions Drawn:

  • Not a visual bug. Elixir duration is running during death timers
  • Not limited to Elixir of Iron

Further Bug:

  • Elixir of Sorcery Possibly running longer than intended
