[GAMEPLAY] Relic Shield (and upgrades) bugged with Thresh

When playing support Thresh with a Relic Shield/Targon's Brace/Face of the Mountain, my basic attacks are not executing minions below the designated amount of health. Instead, I only trigger the gold share and the heal if my attack kills the targeted minion normally. I haven't tried this with other ranged champions, but I suspect it's the same for them.

Is this a bug, or does Relic Shield et al. only execute on melee basic attacks? It's making support a bit more of a pain.

How to reproduce:

  1. Pick Thresh (or possibly any ranged support)
  2. Buy a Relic Shield.
  3. Try to trigger Spoils of War on a minion below the item's listed health but above your attack damage in hp.
  4. Cry.

This issue has been consistent every time I play Thresh.

Thanks,

Sashiki

EDIT: It does say melee basic attacks. Derp. Sorry everyone. Feel free to close/archive this thread.

He is ranged, the item says melee autos, it's intended. Because when it didnt say that bot was double relic and it was really silly. Actually before the nerf it was basically double top double bot 4 shields. It was hilarious.

Its working as intended. The execute is only for melee champs not ranged and thresh is considered ranged. Next time try reading the tooltip closer

My apologies. I read it three times and somehow managed to miss it each time. Thanks.
