[GAMEPLAY] Lux ult does 0 damage to vayne

Vayne tried saying I missed the ult by a hair, but it clearly shows in the replay it hit her spot on, she healed and then the ult hit her and zero damage was done.

This is serious. Anything that is bugged not to kill Vayne must be dealt with immediately.

Yep, that's clearly within the hitbox. Upvoted in hopes someone at Riot will see this.

I have elementalist, I have it but i haven't used any of the other skins i have for her in a while

I wasn't doubting you owned it. Just saying that this occured even when you weren't using that skin.

It was a joke/remarks towards the broken hitboxes.

There have always been an equal amount of favorable cases of that hitbox as there have been unfavorable ones.

I remember at some point in which you simple stood right in front of her as she ulted and it did 0 damage.

But if someone stood right behind you they took damage normally.

Then the case which it had like 100 extra range that wasn't indicated. That ult was always really bugged x)

hell yea its within the hitbox... a lot of times on her ult I think I'm on the outside of it but rito comes around saying fk you your dead..

It's clearly a -200 AP Lux build. The heal was not from Vayne. The heal was actually the negative AP taking effect when your ult hit Vayne. Next time don't build negative AP. :P

The animation of the lux ult is ABOVE the ground, yet all hitboxes are 2d on the ground. You are looking at the ult at an angle down with the camera and it makes the animation look further up at this angle than the hitbox really is

This along with the perspective of vayne being lower on the river makes it look like the ult was right on him but in actuality the hitbox was below vayne and missed.

It might believe this was a bug if there werent also a ton of videos where the ult animation clearly missed and they got hit.

It was Vayne's Sunglasses.

Now you know why she wears them.

Looked like a miss to me /shrug

Lux ult does some wonky things with ramps

Electro522Apr 24, 20175 votes

Were you able to hit her with your ult at all during this game?

I think you actually did miss by a hair. It only looks like its within the hitbox due to the camera orientation. If you pause right at the moment of your ult going off, you can see that your ult is just below Vayne's model. If you were to change the camera to line up with your ult, it may make it more clear. Unfortunately, thats difficult to do.

Though, I could be wrong, and you found a very fringe case bug.

The terrain doesn't lower in League like it does in Dota. It's just the floor of the map. It's all one layer.

If it lowered, you wouldn't be able to see the lane when you're in the side bushes.

regardless if it's true or not, the person you replied to already told you it's irrelevant.

League is coded so that all hit boxes are on one level. visually speaking if a player is up or down their hit boxes are all on the same level and will always be struck by projectiles passing through that space.

There is no shooting over or under in league. All hit boxes travel infinitely up and down. if it passes through your champions space, you are hit.

Sniperblp123Apr 24, 20171 votes

The map very slightly rises and dips at some points but unless you are in free cam mode you will barely notice it and it does absolutely nothing to hitboxes, if that was the case than it would be literally impossible to hit someone if you are inside the baron or dragon pit and the enemy is on the jungle side of the wall.

WimbledofyApr 24, 20171 votes

I can't read what he said because he deleted it, but it is because league is only one layer that it missed. The game appears 3d but it is actually 2d which is why it looked like it hit when it didn't.

doiminat0r3600Apr 24, 20171 votes

It's really because of the camera angle. Ever missed a skillshot that went right through someone similar to the scenario like in the video but not as severe? It's because the camera makes it appear as both champions are on the same plane and the skill was supposed to hit, when in the eyes of the game, it may have been 50 units off when it is only a 40 unit radius. You can test this by casting a linear ability right below/above a champion and seeing it miss but if you actually target them, it can hit.

I'm not saying the video wasn't a glitch, but sometimes, it happens.

Thats the dumbest argument ive ever seen by a Vayne main

There is no Z-axis in League, which is why Darius can grab Ziggs and Gnar mid jump.

MetalGearTeemuApr 24, 20171 votes

moot point anyway, Lux shot Finales on quite nearly the identical angle as she shot binding, and it has a wider hitbox then binding does.

Not gonna lie but that looks like it missed to me.

NeidoxApr 25, 20173 votes

For some reason it missed, it did not do 0 damage. You can tell because her passive wasn't reapplied with the ultimate nor did it trigger the passive.

Riot Incompetency at its finest.

Jeanne fan clubApr 24, 20172 votes

I've had this happen to me a bunch on lux recently, there isn't much consistency to it other than the ult enveloping the entire champion without any part of the champion outside of the ult hitbox.

SpecterVonBarenApr 24, 20172 votes

Looks like a miss to me. If you pause the video right as the laser fires you can clearly see that you aimed slightly to the left of Vayne.

Weight of LawApr 24, 20172 votes

the ult clearly missed, it was close so it looks like it hits, and the ramp makes it look like it hit, but it definitely missed

TheDelightedApr 24, 20172 votes

That part of the map, the start of the river in the middle lane is really REALLY weird. I have shot tons of skillshots that were supposed to hit the enemy but didn't. My theory is that the camera is doing some weird shit. To you it seems like you have hit it but if you watch it in top down view then it isn't. But, I have encountered another lux bug, though super rare, sometimes when enemies stay completely still, they won't take damage from lux's ult. I have only come across it once or twice, but it exists.

This happened to my friend who was playing Lux yesterday too. She ulted Jinx spot on and nothing happened.

FantasySniperApr 25, 20172 votes

Lux's ult hitbox is really weird.

Sometimes it doesn't hit when it's supposed to.

Most of the time it hits when it's not supposed to.

Nameless DrifterApr 25, 20172 votes

This has happened to me too some weeks ago when I was playing Lux, but it happened on the right side of the ramp. I have the Ult on normal cast to see the limits and I made sure it hit a Lee Sin running away. Yet it did 0 damage like it had missed. My team and the enemy were surprised and even told me in the chat that it clearly hit.

EschetonApr 25, 20172 votes

That is a clear miss. You undershot her. I get how missing an ult on a snared target can be frustrating. But ya missed, mate.
