Caitlyn Autoattacks.

Galewings··5 votes·914 views

Has anyone played Caitlyn recently? Her auto attacks felt very awkward, sometimes the animation of the bullet flying into the enemy wouldn't go off and still hurt minions/champs and other times I'd clearly hit them but it's like they took no damage.

Is this a bug? Has anyone else experienced this?

That goes for every champ if you animation cancel before attack goes off.

It's some kind of bug.

Sometimes her autos hit after she's dead, sometimes she keeps autoing while having no sight on you, etc.

Should probably put this in the Report a Bug board, that's where the tech Rioters hang out.

OMG! I thought it's only when I play her with Headhunter skin! Yes, sometimes your bullet doesn't go off but it still damages its target but with some kind of a delay right?

I also used her headhunter skin while I played as her, so I'm not sure about her base or other skins.

It really makes it hard for me to play her, it's hard to explain but it just feels incredibly uncomfortable and it was driving me mad while I was in game.

Ye it's uncomfortable as hell, especially when you miss your cannon minion because of that bug.

I've had the same thing with Safari Caitlyn skin. I dunno how/why it happens though. It seems to go away after a while. But sometimes it lasts most of the game.

I've seen so many threads about this issue and I don't believe Riot has ever said anything about it. I think it has to do with her auto attack animation. Like the damage goes off when her firing animation ends rather than when the projectile hits the enemy.

Yea, her autoattacks did feel funky that last few games I played her. They didn't feel smooth and they felt like they were cancelling too early. She really hasn't felt like she's handled correctly since she had that issue where her auto attacks would connect before the projectile even hit.

It's just compensating them for the sheer amount of free poke you get if they try to farm at all.
