Ahahahaha, that Lux nerf

Dominick Destine·Mar 9, 2016·4 votes·1,436 views

Lux Prismatic Barrier (W) AP ratio lowered to .2 from .35 Shield value lowered to 50/70/90/110/130 from 80/105/130/155/180 SmashGizmo added: " shields stack on double hits and the missile now decelerates on the way out, accelerates in"

Finally.... last time this happened Lux got a 5 ms reduction and Riot called it a day.

This time they actually went in and did a good job... could stand to get another small nerf but at least this time Lux was decreased.

Also unrelated but;

Hextech Gunblade Unique active: Renamed to "Capture Bolt" Notes it the active shares a cooldown with other Bolt items. Damage increased to 200 from 150.

What other items have "Capture bolt"?

Honestly people are still going to cry about her because she is still incredibly safe.

Yeah that's a weak nerf but again, last time it was 5 ms and Riot called it a day.

This time at least Lux took a hit... personally I would have fixed her broken interaction with Thunderlord's Decree. How the eff does she trigger it off of TWO attacks where everyone else needs THREE? Sona should trigger it off of Q and auto then, by that logic.

id rather riot stop jerking us around and nerf the damn champ for real. you couldnt reach lux to begin with to even trigger her shield. jesus riot games.

You probably never played Lux so far.. Her Passive counts as a seperate proc, so she just need to hit an opponent with 1 Spell and then proc her Passive with an auto. Sona's Q doesn't put a debuff on anyone, so that doesn't work. What you can do is AA > Q > Empowered AA, as it works like a reset.

For Lux, it's more comparable to things that hit twice, like Renek W or Shyv Q.

And you must have never played Sona so far, her Q is independent from her autoattack damage and thus, if Lux can trigger off of a spell plus autoattack, so should Sona.

It literally triggers two item 3092 procs.

Yea.. on two different targets.. You need one Champ 3 times for TLD tho~

Not sure if troll .... but let's assume you are not.

Sona , with her Q (active) and Q (buff) plus an autoattack are three different strikes on one target; Each counting as an individual item 3092 proc. So Q and auto-attack trigger it three times and yet do not proc Thunderlord's Decree... now I am not saying it SHOULD proc on that, but if Lux can do it with two hits, Sona should be able to do it as well.

It needs some consistency, is my point.

Now I'm curious.. What Q "Buff" you mean? In case you talk about the Power Chord bonus.. Well, it's an empowered Auto Attack. It doesn't matter that you do physical and magic damage with it, it's still just 1 hit. In contrast to Lux's Illumination, which is an actual Debuff, that procs separately from her AA. And to your point with FQC, go into a bot game vs 1 opponent and try to proc all three stacks with Q + empowered AA, I just tested it myself, just to be sure. Her empowered auto procs only 1 FQC Charge, so your "shortened" Q + empowered AA combo just gets 2 procs off in total in contrast to your called 3.

In case you meant something entirely else, enlighten me Mr. Higher Elo...

No it doesn't. You need AA Q AA to do it on Sona, using the Power Chord auto reset.

Epic fail.
