Question on New Ashe Q

Gaminon·4/29/2015, 7:03:45 PM·1 votes·921 views

How will Ashe's new Q Interact with flat damage reduction? Specifically Doran's Shield and Block/Unyielding. Cause losing 55-60 damage off of every auto attack would make it better to NOT use her Q than to use it.

I know Riot has said only the first bolt will apply on hit, but all 5 apply Runann's so that's a little odd. And even if the other four are technically spells, Doran's blocks damage from single target spells, too. Seems like the flat damage reduction should only apply to the first bolt from a balance standpoint, but I just wanted to be sure. Has anyone tested on the PBE?

Damage from the first of the 5 arrows will be affected by all Doran's Shield, Block, and Unyielding.

Damage from the remaining 4 will likely only be affected by Unyielding.

even if they are effected by damage reduction extra shots is still extra shots.

No only the first initial arrow does the block damage thing. The rest counts as part of the spell/ability.
