That Jhin Buff on the pbe is actually a nerf in disguise

>Delay between shots increased to 1.25 from 1

They try luring us in with a longer slow and more damage but this change is a gigantic nerf.

No longer will Jhin be able to unload all his bullets in FOUR seconds but he'll take an entire FIVE to do so.

Absolutely barbaric!

Why does Riot ruin EVERYTHING?

I don't play Jhin but if this is the delay between shots wouldn't it be three seconds now, 3.75 on the pbe, and need to be 1.33 seconds per bullet to attain perfection?

They reverted it on PBE! THE FOUR WILL REMAIN!

...although, personally, I like to pause four effect befour the last shot. It'll make people waste their flashes four no reason.

But what if the true beauty of a 4 is that it will someday become a 5? [poppy-wink]

Absolutely disgusting.

Could someone outline the exact changes that are currently on the PBE? I'd like to give my 2 cents as well on it.

Well, I think about it like this

The current ratio of slow to the allowable interval between shots is exactly .5/1. This next patch it will be .75/1.25. That ratio now favors the slow a little bit. I think this is a buff.

Wait, it goes shoot, wait time, shoot, wait time, shoot, wait time, shoot, reload. Rinse and repeat.

It has never been 4 seconds ever, but 3. It is now 3.75.

If you want them to also add a delay at the end, before he starts his reload animation, and not let this be cancelable, I am 110% down for such a change to be made, and would actually greatly enjoy it, as I don't feel Jhin is punished much at all for his relaoding, when he can just cast during it and move freely, and doesn't have to actually interrupt his damage in any meaningful way, while overcompensating for this tremendously with ludicrous multiplicative scaling beyond the already disgusting quintic scaling auto attack damage formula.

Yes but now we will be forced to listen to his Ult music for an extra second longer at least.

Sounds like the best buff ever to me.

Jhin needs to be buffed, make him have 3 rounds. Decrease his atk and reload speed. Buff his movement speed a little and I'll be happy Mwhahaha

Fashionably late, per usual. Perfection can not be disrupted.

Jhin "We are always late these days. Stefano keeps ambushing us with his damned camera."

But he will be doing more damage per auto.
