Riot Support has confirmed that Renekton's W hitting separately is a bug. Why isn't it fixed yet?

For those of you who do not know, Renekton's W has been supposedly bugged.

Instead of applying all the damage and on-hit effects at once, it now deals the damage and on-hit per strike/over time.

This is a pretty big change and it really changes how you gauge his burst and it ruins one of my fave builds: BotRK Renekton, which was actually surprisingly good on him, especially against HP stackers and it also helped him chase targets.

This bug massively diminishes Renekton's W damage combo with BotRK and it also makes his burst really confusing to gauge (which is important when you want to go for an all in later)

Why hasn't this bug been fixed? If its intentional why wasn't it in any of the patch notes? This change is pretty big

We made this change intentionally in 6.14 . We don't patch note everything, but you are right this should have been called out. Sorry.

i noticed it. i thought it was a bug. because i was fighting a renekt. and when i kind of. think in my head, how much damage more the empowered W does. i take more damage after an intial ammount. and i get surprised. i legitimately lost lane to a renekton few days ago because of that. took my a while to farm up and win the game back tho.

but wait. why did you make his W like this. ?. if its intentional.
