Just something about Twitch's ult+runaans interaction....

So twitch ulti increases twitch's range and lets bolts pierce enemies.

These bolts deal 100% to the 1st enemy, 80% to the second one, third takes 60%, 4th takes 40%, with a minimum of 40%.

Runaan's deals 40% AD to enemies within range that are nearby, and they can crit.

Therefore- assuming that 3 people are lined up

1st person will take 100% of Twitch ult's damage, and 0% damage from Runaans.

the second person will take 80% of twitch's damage, HOWEVER, Runaan's deals 40% damage, in total for 120% damage. 3rd person takes 60% from ult ,40% from runaans for 100% total.

The first and third person will take 100% of twitch ult's damage, yet the person right behind the first one will actually take 120% damage.

This all assumes that there's nobody to the sides of the first champion (not even minions) or some other target. It also assumes that the secondary and tertiary targets are in range of Runaan's...

I just tried it out in the practice tool myself, heres what I found. the enemy your attacking will take 100% damage. the 2nd person will take that 80% damage and then they will also take damage from Runnanes, causing them to take more damage than the first target. the 3rd person will take reduced damage then will also be hit by Runnanes, but will add up to be a bit more damage than the first target (only 20-30). I dont know why, its not because of hurricane bolts being affected by IE passive either. and the 4th target will take 40% damage, but it adds up to be more than half the damage of the first. again, no idea why this is the case. my guess would be some kind of interaction with the % damage increase masteries. You can test it out yourself, its pretty interesting.

What's that? A marksman that has some weird interaction with an item that gives them power they shouldn't have? I'm sure Riot will fix it.

yeah, that's pretty uncool. Would be nice if his runaan's interaction was removed.

Yeah but why are you lined up 3 people in a row for Twitch's ult and close enough for Hurricane's bolts to hit you while in such a straight line?

Basically this thread is bullshitting you.

I bet twitch ult is applying to each runaan bolt making them pierce too for the percentage of bolt damage. Hence why in practice tool the third target takes more damage than the first (because of pierce bolt on second)
