Does Thornmail against Magic damage basic attacks?

GlassBoxMime··1 votes·362 views

My friend and I were discussing things about Thornmail. My question is if it returns basic attacks that do magic damage such as Teemo's passive magic damage, Wit's End, or Warwick passive. I don't think it does but I am not 100% sure; hence the post. If I could get any answers that would be awesome. Thanks guys.

Thornmail will reflect damage from any auto attack. However, it will only reflect physical damage that is dealt, not magic damage. So any on-hit effect that deals magic damage, like the ones you mentioned, will not add to Thornmail's reflected damage.

It should be noted that abilities dealing mixed damage will be partially reflected by Thornmail. I.E. Fizz Urchin Strike's physical component.

On being hit, Thornmail will reflect 30% of the physical damage dealt by the attacker, including most on-hit effects.

Reflects physical on hit effects. So teemo E won't be reflected (magic damage), but master yi's double strike (physical damage) will be reflected.

Precisely.

I don't think it does, but based on the wording it should. It doesn't work on-hit effects, however a Viktor Q auto or a runeglaive auto might get damage returned. I really want to test this

Think of it like this:

If the attack/spell can proc item 3057 effect and that spell deals physical damage, it will interact with Thornmail.

It reflects auto attacks, not on hit effects such as teemo E, witts end or bork of the ruined king.
