Even after fix, Donger does not work properly and no announcement has been made in the patch notes.

Hi, I see that you have fixed the duration on Heimerdinger's E stun and the W double cast bug. However, there are still several uncorrected problems. Here's a list:

  • Heimerdinger Q does NOT proc Rilai unless it is ulted
  • Heimerdinger Q does NOT proc aery, unless it is ulted.
  • I therefore suspect other runes might not work properly on him neither (electrocute used to proc if the ennemy got attack by 3 different turrets of Heimerdinger, to be verified)

Since there is : -> no changes in the way runes proc in the patch notes -> no mention at all of Heimerdinger Q being unable to prock these two elements

I would please ask if this is what was intended of a fix and if Heimerdinger will be reverted to normal. If these changes are intended to the way these elements proc, then logically they should have applied to Zyra's minions as well, which is not the case.

Thank you for your time, a response would be highly appreciated.

EDIT:

After observation on the subreddit r/heimerdingerMains, I noticed the R-> Q apparently does not scale with AP anymore. This is also rather major.

Q also has no description of it's damage and health. Dark Harvest no longer procs from Q.

Other bugs in a post I just made 1.) Turrets no longer proc Aery, Dark Harvest, or Rylais. 2.) RQ turrets cannon attack (AA) don't scale with AP. This means at rank 1 it will only do 40 damage per hit. Tested this in practice tool with 1022 AP Rank 3 Q does 159 damage while RQ rank 1 only does 40 per auto. Makes RQ even more of a joke to use. 3.) Only the first rocket hit can proc Dark Harvest. This means if someone is at 59% HP and each does 10% HP Damage it doesn't matter if the other 4 hit as it simply will not proc.

I would like to add that Liandry's torment still does not proc on Q neither, but that is a NORMAL interaction. It never has unless we are talking about the beam.

I can adapt around rylais and aery not working with turrets, but the ulti q AAs not scaling with AP is game breaking and I'm frankly disappointed with the attitude of riot. In their heads they have done the bandaid fix already and I expect that is all we Heim mains will receive.

Riot, can we get a response?

Are you absolutely sure heimer turrets applied rylais before this patch? I know zyra plants do, but I love heimer and I didn't think they did before either?

First of all, i see no issues with that, nerfs to heimer are WAY LONG OVER DUE, they should keep it as it is, also as far as I am aware rylai and Aery procs of spells you cast. Dont see issue here? Your turrets arent you. Yeah I know that you cast those turrets. Who cares? You arent putting in any input into gameplay beyond pressing Q. No aim needed. I think this is a good change and should stay as it is. If nothing else, it doesnt make top lane heimer obnoxious impenetrable fortress unless he actually hits his stun.

I agree Zyra should get same treatment as heimer.

@OP electrocute still works normally as before.

A bug is not a nerf. If they are going to nerf something, it should be documented so people know it's not just a bug.

When exactly you are going to fix these major bugs? If its difficult, cancel the changes and bring back the old patch heimer...
