Lux Passive Vision Grant

Toastey··28 votes·1,149 views

Can we get Lux's passive to grant vision? If Ignite does, I don't see why a passive called "Illumination" shouldn't. This would also solve a big problem with Lux's Q: there are absolutely zero indicators if you hit a target in fog of war or not. For the sake of clarity (TM), I put forth these suggestions. Thank you Rito for your tiem.

I rather have Lux buffed elsewhere. This really isn't what lux needs, she doesn't need to pester melee champs to be viable.

Besides, her E and R already grant vision.

IMO this is a better passive on lucian's W on-hit giving true sight.

im not sure what you mean by "pester melee champs". lux will do that regardless of buffs or nerfs simply because of the nature of her kit.

as for her e and r granting vision, that's not the issue i'm addressing. the issue is that there is no way to tell whether or not you landed your q in fog of war. having to spend an extra 100+ mana just to check if you landed the snare is a waste and bad champion design.

If you snare someone in a bush toss in your E to facecheck... it gives vision.

This works sometimes, but at certain parts of the game(Or after a skirmish, etc) you may not have the spare mana to waste a Q+E combo on "Is there someone in here". So while that works - She has fairly high mana costs, so it isn't as practical as it would be with some champs.

Late game i am rarely OOM with Lux but, honestly if you snared someone and don't have the mana to finish them you shouldn't be following them anyway. Gratned that Mana cost on her E fully maxed is stupid, it cost more than her ult. Never fight Fair fights. :P

I more so meant if you're low mana, you throw the snare in the bush and have 150 mana left - If you E, you can't shield - Are you sure they're in the bush?

I suppose I meant more so Mid game specifically. Like right after you get E maxed. Just roamed for a dragon fight leaving after it with 220 mana, bailing, see Sivir coming - Throw the Q in the bush - Did it hit her? Or did it miss? If it hit her, the E might kill her. If it missed, you might need your shield from your W quite immediately, and throwing the E would make it unable to be used.

But in the end, it's part of her weaknesses I suppose. I'm neutral on the subject, I just see the reasoning behind his request.

I could see this working however I am worried that the passive would make it too easy to hit her ult. That being said there is no way to know for sure without testing it.

Maybe procing her passive grants vision? idk
