Repeating crossbow has delayed stacks

I've been keeping an eye on Repeating Crossbow, because I thought for certain it was bugged. In reality, the stacks are simply off by one. It starts off with 20 AS and 20% crit, but 0 stacks. When it jumps, it gains 1 stack, going from 0 -> 1 stacks. The total AS and crit from that point is multiplied but the number of stacks (3 stack = 60 and 60, for example). But with 1 stack, that means it jumped once, but still gives only 20 and 20. That first jump doesn't increase its effect.

That's a really weird way for the item to function

Its still useful to plan around that first jump since it still gives stats to the next unit, but the way its written implies that each death = more stats.

Riot programmers are monkeys for not catching such a simple logic error.

I had a game with 2 repeating crossbows on the same unit and at one point the stacks between the two were different. It was strange and I cant even begin to think how it happened since they would jump together.

Trash item that's also buggy. Good job Riot.
