Vayne's Abilities

Night Hunter Vayne's Passive

2000

Vayne ruthlessly hunts evil-doers. She gains 30 Movement Speed when moving towards an enemy champion.

Tumble Vayne's Q Ability

250

4 / 3.5 / 3 / 2.5 / 2

Vayne tumbles, maneuvering to carefully place her next shot. She rolls toward the cursor and her next attack deals bonus damage equal to 60 / 65 / 70 / 75 / 80% of total attack damage. This bonus damage is not increased if the attack critically strikes.

Silver Bolts Vayne's W Ability

Self

Vayne tips her bolts with a rare metal, toxic to evil things. The third consecutive attack or ability against the same target will deal 4 / 6.5 / 9 / 11.5 / 14% of the target's maximum Health as bonus true damage (Max damage vs. monsters is capped at 200).

Silver Bolts' damage bonus cannot fall below 50 / 65 / 80 / 95 / 110.

Condemn Vayne's E Ability

550

20 / 18 / 16 / 14 / 12

Vayne draws a heavy crossbow from her back, and fires a huge bolt at her target, dealing 50 / 85 / 120 / 155 / 190 (+0.5 per bonus attack damage) physical damage and knocking them back (900 units). If they collide with terrain, they are impaled, dealing 150% of Condemn's initial damage again and stunning them for 1.5 seconds.

Final Hour Vayne's Ultimate (R) Ability

Self

100 / 85 / 70 / 70 / 70

For 8 / 10 / 12 seconds, Vayne gains 35 / 50 / 65 bonus attack damage as well as tripling Night Hunter bonus, reducing Tumble's cooldown by 30 / 40 / 50%, and granting invisibility for 1 second when casting Tumble.

While active, whenever a champion damaged by Vayne dies within 3 seconds, Final Hour's duration is extended by 4 seconds, up to a maximum of the original duration.
