I just played a game with my beloved AP Ezreal, and as is expected I bought Rylai's Crystal Scepter. To my great fear though I noticed that it didn't slow at all. Mystic Shot with Rylai's is an important part of AP Ez's kit and for his kiting and now it doesn't work. Is this an intended change for Rylai's which I have missed or is it a bug? And is Riot aware of this if it is a bug or should I report it?

I don't think it's ever worked like that, but I could easily be wrong.

Mystic Shot has always been sort of an auto-attack, so I don't think it would apply Rylais.


Thank you to jhoijhoi for the sig, and all the dividers in the guide.

I'm 90% sure it used to slow with Rylai's, but now that you say it hasn't I'm getting a little uncertain. I'm pretty sure that it works with Parrrley so I don't see why it wouldn't work with Mystic Shot.

Edit: Watched a couple of Siv videos of AP Ez and it seems like I was completely wrong, Mystic Shot does not proc spell damage.

Mystic Shot is a colliding linear skill shot.

Does not apply spell effects.

Mystic Shot will apply on-hit effects as a ranged attack, including life steal, Sheen, and the reduced slow from Frozen Mallet.

Mystic Shot cannot critically strike.

Mystic Shot will not affect structures.

Mystic Shot's damage will be mitigated if the attack is dodged, parried, blocked or misses.

Spell shields will block the damage.

This ability is considered to be a projectile for Unbreakable and Wind Wall.

Both Mystic Shot and Parrrley are considered autoattacks and apply on-hit effects including lifesteal. They don't apply spell effects like spellvamp or rylai's slow.

The only difference between those spells and a regular autoattack is that they still count as a spell cast for the purposes of Sheen and Tear of the Goddess and stuff and they break spell shields.
Thanks to The_Nameless_Bard for the sig!

Eh, just get Iceborn Gauntlet if you need the slow. If you're going AP, I wouldn't worry about CC and just get a lot of damage for your ultimate and E-W burst. Try something like this:



Plenty of other good AP items without needing to get Rylai's.
Thanks to Minho for the sig!

Pretty much how my build looks, but with Rylai's instead of Morellonomicon. The slow is more for the fun of it rather than pure efficiency.

Because Cho's spikes are not an ability that procs on-hit effects, it is an on-hit effect. Talking about on-hit effects, some proc them, some not.

The most interesting thing is that stuff like Jax's Empower or Jax's Grandmaster-At-Arms proc Muramana 2 times, all used together 3 times.
