Project: Lucian, Piercing Light

I don't have a recording, and I'm not sure if this is true about Lucian in general, or not. However, the last game I played against him, he was using a Project skin, and I noticed that his q, piercing light, hit substantially farther than the animation led me to believe. Basically, the hit box did not match the animation. I don't own lucian, or the skin, so I can't replicate it, and I wasn't recording. But yeah, really aggravating to be hit by that when visually, I was WELL out of the way.

Anyone else experience/notice this?
