Ashe's Passive doesn't work with Crit Dmg Runes? Riot is this Intended?

Wax Gamer·Mar 6, 2016·2 votes·477 views

Long story short... I had a lot of IP so I bought a whole rune page of Crit Dmg Runes.

So started a game as Ashe thinking the runes would boost her passive's dmg, but that wasn't the case.

I don't think this is a bug, because the passive(From League wiki) goes up with "Bonus" Crit Dmg and the Runes only say Crit Dmg. I would like to know from Riot if this Intended.

Thank you reading.

Since you already had a look at the wiki, you should take the time to understand how the stats work with her passive.

10% + [critical chance × (1 + bonus critical damage)]% AD

Notice how crit damage is multiplied by crit chance. If you start the game with 0% crit chance whatever crit damage you have would be multiplied by 0 and you would get no benefit until you bought a crit chance item.

I was able to see the difference when i tested it out in a custom match. Thank you guys for the reply!

League of Legends wikia page:

Frost Shot http://vignette1.wikia.nocookie.net/leagueoflegends/images/4/42/Frost_Shot.png/revision/latest?cb=20150505193435

Frost Shot: Ashe's basic attacks and abilities apply Frost to affected enemies, slowing them by 5% - 25% (based on level) for 2 seconds and causing subsequent basic attacks against them to deal 10% + (critical chance × (1 + bonus critical damage))% AD bonus physical damage while they remain slowed.

Critical Slow: Ashe's critical strikes deal no additional damage, but instead double Frost's Slow icon slow strength to 10% - 50% (based on level), decaying over the duration to its normal strength.

Frost Shots is an offensive buff.

Frost Shots does not apply spell effects.

Banshee's Veil item.png Spell shields will block Frost Shot.png Frost Shot's slow, but not the bonus damage.

Additional Information:

Frost Shot:

Frosted targets are distinct from slowed targets - only Ashe's Frost Shot can trigger the bonus damage. Other slows can't trigger it.

Here are examples on the behaviour of Frost Shot's bonus damage:[2] Simply add the following to the base 110% AD for the total damage.

will add 30% AD bonus damage - 20 × (1 + 0.5), for a total of 140% AD.
Adding a increases the aforementioned to 75% AD bonus damage - 50 × (1 + 0.5)%, for a total of 185% AD.
With 100% critical strike chance and Infinity Edge item.png Infinity Edge's bonus critical damage, you will deal 160% AD bonus damage 10% + (100 × (1 + 0.5))%, for a total of 260% AD.
