So Parrrley does not always fucntion like a basic attack then . . .

And if that is the case would it apply DFT ??

Edit Apparently DFT does not work.

It is indeed weird. While trying to use it, it's an ability. Once used, it becomes an auto-attack. Conversely, something like Nasus' Q is just an empowered auto-attack at all points. You also can't use GP's Q on wards.

I do agree that it should be changed.

I'm not sure it counts as an auto attack. It's a lot like Pantheon Q.

except not at all

Care to explain? It can crit, apply on hit effects, and has 100% AD scaling, but it's also a targeted effect.

Does it reset his autos?

Pantheon's Q does not crit, apply on-hit effect, or reset his auto-attack swing timer. It's also a spell, and not an auto-attack or basic attack. The only things they have in common is they both deal physical damage and are ranged (by units).

Actually Pantheon's Q does crit if the target is at 15% or below in terms of health.

So GP Q is an AA reset?

Edit: For clarification, I was referring to GP's Q in my previous post.

That's a special case of Panth's Q interaction with E. His Q does not crit under normal circumstances (ie. from the Critical Strike Chance stat)

Edit: For clarification, I was referring to GP's Q in my previous post.

GP Q is a spell that effects an AA, which is different from a spell which resets the AA timer (ie. an AA reset).

Parley: Shoots target, plundering Gold for each enemy unit killed. Fires a bullet that deals 20/45/70/95/120 (+100% Attack Damage) physical damage (can crit and applies on-hit effects).If Parrrley kills the target, Gangplank plunders 4/5/6/7/8 bonus Gold.For each Gold plundered, Gangplank gains a Silver Serpent (trade Silver Serpents at the shop to upgrade Cannon Barrage).

It's not an auto attack, it just applies on-hit.

RalanrDec 5, 20151 votes

Which is why it can't target the tentacles. Only autoattacks are suppose to be able to do that.

Panth Q does not apply on-hit effects (lifesteal, frozen mallet, Wit's End, etc). It does apply spell effects (like spellvamp, Rylai's, Liandry's, DFT, etc).

...I know... ... I didn't say it did... ...

I meant Parrley.

it should work, if it work for zyra´s plants it should work for his weirdo things too Illaoi

Illaoi's tentacles act similar to wards when it comes to attacking them, so no, it shouldn't work.

SpoofghoulDec 5, 20151 votes

But that is the thing Parrrley acts as a melee basic attack so should it not be capable of attacking wards and hentaicles?

Lost In TimeDec 5, 20152 votes

If you cannot Parrrley a ward, you cannot Parrrley a tentacle

As simple as that.

I tested DFT and it does not work on parrrley

RisenDarkKnightDec 5, 20151 votes

GP q counts as a basic attack not spell, and DFT only works on spells. Ezreal q works the same way. Fervor of Battle should work though. (though I'd honestly recommend going into cunning for stromraider's surge or thunderlords and getting the 45% cdr)

RalanrDec 5, 20151 votes

Where does it say it counts as a basic attack?

RisenDarkKnightDec 6, 20151 votes

It's not in the ability description anymore (since his mini rework before the bilgewater event) but I got this from http://leagueoflegends.wikia.com/wiki/Gangplank

"Parrrley behaves like a melee attack.

Parrrley will also trigger on-being hit effects on enemy champions, including item-sourced effects.

Frozen Mallet item 3022 , Iceborn Gauntlet item 3025 , Phage item 3044 and Trinity Force item 3078 will trigger their melee versions.

Tiamat item 3077 , Ravenous Hydra item 3074 and Titanic Hydra item 3748 are triggered by Parrrley."

Like ezreal q it works with on hit effects but not spell effects. So item 3022 works but item 3116 does not. For the same reason, I think Fervor of Battle (the keystone mastery) should work on GP q but deathfire touch does not. Have you tested if barrels (his E) apply deathfire touch? I think they count as abilities.
