So I'm thinking about getting Azir, but I could use some help.

I useally can figure out stats that are given on the wiki / lol webisite for champions but Azir has a weird descption of one.

ACTIVE: Azir summons an untargetable Sand Soldier for 9 seconds. When Azir attacks an enemy in a soldier's range, the soldier attacks instead of Azir - dealing 50 / 55 / 60 / 65 / 70 / 75 / 80 / 85 / 90 / 95 / 100 / 110 / 120 / 130 / 140 / 150 / 160 / 170 (45 + 5 / 10 at each level) (+ 60% AP) magic damage to all enemies in a line. If multiple soldiers strike the same target, each soldier after the first deals 25% damage, and the soldiers can't attack structures.

Can someone simplfy this for me please?

I know i get a soldier for 9 seconds, but I really don't understand how much damage it does with a single auto attack by this desc.

What's confuseing me is all the "/" that useally mean leveling up the ability but i know you can't level it up 18 times

thens theres this (45+5 / 10 at each level) Does this mean 5 damage at level 1 and what exactly happens at level 2?

Their base damage scales with Azir's level, not the ability's level. In other words, leveling up W does not increase the damage of his soldiers, only the frequency with which you can spawn them.

Also, if you have multiple soldiers within attack range of your target, all in range will spear your target on every auto attack, though only one gets to deal full damage per auto attack. The others deal reduced damage. Otherwise, Azir's DPS would be the highest in the game.

Basically, his damage is his level times a coefficient plus 45 plus 60% of his AP. If you hit the same target with two soldiers simultaneously, the total damage to the target is 125% of what one would do alone. Three soldiers do 150% of what one would do alone.

The coefficient that his level is multiplied by increases by 5 for the first eleven levels and 10 for the last few.

I like to call Azir an ADC by proxy since he's still right click to win, but he's not the one doing the damage, his soldiers are. Also bear in mind that his soldiers deal magic damage and their spears (which punch through beyond their original target) count as spell on hits, so things like Liandry's are applied, but things like Nashor's, crit, and lifesteal are not.

It means you start at 50 damage at level 1. You get +5 damage each time Azir gains a level until he reaches level 11...then it increases to +10 damage each level until he reaches level 18 where it caps at 170 base damage per auto attack before any AP scaling or other modifiers. I do belive this is also exclusively magic damage, so keep that in mind when choosing runes and masteries and such.

Both these guys hit the nail on the head. Minus the last paragraph of the first guy he is not right click to win you need to land your full combos and play azir in the right fashion to have success with him. I can help teach you and give you a viable runepage add me if you need help.
