[GAMEPLAY] Caitlyn AA Sometimes Hits Target at end of AA instead of when Projectile Connects

When playing Caitlyn recently, I noticed that my last hitting was off because I was hitting minions too soon. It didn't seem right, and I noticed that sometimes the damage was occurring before the projectile itself hit. Specifically, 1/3 of the time (more or less) the damage from on autoattack would affect a minion or champion upon first shooting the projectile, then the projectile would travel on its way. The other 2/3 of the time, the attack worked normally, with the damage and projectile colliding at the same time. The times when it happened appeared to be random, and I have not gone in to another game to test out whether or not it is repeatable. Similarly, the enemy Caitlyn did not answer when I asked in all chat if her attack was bugged as well, but there was any talking in all chat in general, so that does not disprove whether it was a one time issue or affects everyone.

There might still be problems with the missile vfx concerning when they'll do damage. They've done work to fix the missile system over the past few months ( http://engineering.riotgames.com/news/behind-leagues-new-missile-system ) but with all changes there may still be kinks in the system and as long as they get wind that there are still a few glitches here and there then I'd believe they'll get to working on it. Who knows, maybe they already know about it and are trying hotfixes that won't mess things up further.
