Ok, I just played Kayle 
with klepto and was doing terrible in early, but I got one of those elixirs of skill 
that give you an extra level. By the time I reached level 10 the game thought I had reached lvl 11 and was ranged. Later on I got an other one, and when I reached lvl 14 it thought I was lvl 16. Should this happen?
Hexs Fortune4 votesKayle gains her passive upgrades based on how many skill points she's used, not her current level. You can test this with the practice tool
Stars Shaper1 votesExactly what I did and after 40 mins of Kleptomancy procs on 0 cd I finally got a freaking Elixir of Skill xD
I can confirm you can "cheat" the level requirement.
We'll see what Riot thinks about it. The chance to get a single is so scarce that it can be ignorable but it would be incredibly unfair when that happen considering how powerful Kayle becomes.

you uh, also could have just leveled her up to 18 and observed that she didnt ascend until you spent a certain number of skill points...
Stars Shaper1 votesYeah but I wanted to be sure that the skill elixir caused her to ascend earlier and there wasn’t a special rule.
Quepha3 votesIt's intended and exactly how the passive should work if you read it closely. People have been playing around this already.
Whether or not it's balanced is another question.
Stars Shaper2 votesIt's probably due to how the Ascension is coded.
If you look at it, it doesn't proc on levelling up, it happens once you level up your ultimate which means that skill point elixirs will trigger it earlier.
I don't know if Riot intended it to work like that but this might be the case or they wouldn't have bound her "passive" to her ultimate skill points. Might also be that they didn't take that in consideration and went along with it because it worked better with the coding.
Sirsir2 votesIts based on skill points used, not actual level. If you don't put your first skill point in at level 1 you won't gain the bonus attack speed.
TBH I wouldn't mind removing the skill pot, its a little TOO strong for an RNG item
Chembaron Yamada1 votesThis is definitely a bug and you should report it, sounds pretty broken.
Shahamut1 votesStrange, because I tried the same thing and though the animation happened, I still wasn't actually ranged til lvl 11... gonna have to test this out
Kayle ßot1 votesIt's not a bug it was intended it was pointed out on reddit and upvoted to the front page a week or 2 ago.
Rebonack1 votesI believe it is intended.
Kayle's passive isn't based on her level, it is based on how many skill points she has spent. Normally that doesn't make any difference, except if you get elixirs of skill.
Sukishoo1 votesYes, it is intended.
