Watch Llynx's League of Legends video: Lucian Passive doesn't proc if the target dashes past his auto range. - Plays.tv

When playing Lucian and attempting to proc his passive, 'Lightslinger', it will not proc if the target dashes out of range even if you have already locked in an auto. This also applies to interaction with the cd reduction on his dash, 'Relentess Pursuit', only granting one 2 second reduction instead of two procs of 2 second cd reduction when auto'ing champions.

Cast a spell as Lucian
Auto Attack a champion
Have target Champion use a dash to get beyond Lucian's attack range before the second shot would of been fired.

has happened in 3 separate games now.

I'm not sure it's supposed to?

How do you auto attack something that's out of range?

If you auto them, and they dash at the same time... (video shows this) Also, the bug is tied to the auto that comes because of Lucian's lightslinger passive which appears after your own auto if you've used a spell before. It should go off and can't be canceled by moving or casting another spell unless you auto cancel your initial auto, which wouldn't remove the passive allowing it to be procced within the duration you have left.

No, I understand, but I'm not sure it's a bug--I think it's intentional. I don't remember it ever working differently.

Ya I could see it, but you have no control over the second auto and the description of the passive from Riot's Own site "Whenever Lucian uses an ability, his next attack becomes a double-shot" makes it sound like it should.

I mean, it's not too bad to deal with. But it doesn't even acquire a new target like a minion or another champion in range which it would do if the initial target dies to the first auto, meaning you won't get the benefit of the cd reduction or dps. Could be annoying vs champions like Ahri/LB that dash in and out multiple times.
