Bard's R (possible bug not sure if intended)

HavingAGoodChime·Feb 5, 2018·1 votes·349 views

Hey guys, So at the moment if you bard ult a inner tower of a lane that still has its outer tower undestroyed, the tower will not go golden and the ult does nothing. Not sure if this is intended for instance if can turn these towers off (need to check) and if Baron and Dragon are affected, surely adding in all towers wouldn't be an issue - after all fights at these points are fairly rare as the outer tower is still up but it would just be useful. Cheers!

hmmmm. it sounds interesting, but coming from a logical standpoint, it's like saying trying to bard ult the inhibs/nexus when towers are up. if the towers are up, it's an untargetable animation per se. So maybe if the teir 2 is up, the teir 1 has that similar property where it's just an untargetable still image. (just a thought)

I have noticed that, however to me anyway it doesn't really make sense for the tier 2's, i understand the nexus and inhibs because bard has no need to 'turn them off', but I think riot should look at it if it doesn't mean changing the whole system of how unattackable structures are handled (which it could well do so I'm not mad about it ^^)

it is an interesting standpoint of a scenario i will admit that. But that's my thought. hmmm. maybe you should try to go in practice tool, disable turret shots and try to destroy the inner tower see what happens. Cuz knowing riot, they'd probably program the turrets to go "you can't destroy the second one if you havent destroyed the first one" such as the "you cant hit the nexus if all 3 inhibitors are up." With this being said, if you can in fact attack and destroy the inner tower without touching the outer tower, then yeah it should work, but knowing riot, that inner tower shouldnt be attackable until you destroy the outer turret.

(im trying it in practice tool right now)

There was a bug previously where if you ultied a Tier 2 tower as bard, and the T1 tower died. When bards ulti ended the T2 tower was still untargiatable and couldent take damage. (you could do this to your teams towers.)

Barron and Dragon are affected by bard R.

Edit. Ommwrecked will disable the closet tower in range. It CC's them but does not make them Invul so theres no bug to be worried about creating god mode towers.

Bard main-can confirm is intended

yeah its for sure intended. i just went into practice tool, and you cannot hit the inner turret, inhibitor turrets or the nexus turrets if you did not destroy the outer turret. THEREFORE, since it is a still image, it is not targetable by any means, which means you cant bard ult it
