I know why you max Q first because i did that too when i still new, but E is actually way a lot bettter than Q as i slowly master her. Why? First, let see what Q and E provide:

Q, Light Binding:

1) A binding skill

2) Low mana cost

3) High damage

4) Essential skill for full combo

5) Root 2 targets instead 1, which is very good for bursting 2 enemy at once if they rooted together.

6) Low cooldown (6.05 seconds max)

E, Lucent Singularity:

1) Provide vision

2) Ridiculous Large AOE that is very hard for enemy to dodge

3) Provide Slow, which is easier for lux to land her Q

4) Strong Ganking/Escape tool (thanks to the slow)

5) Powerful waveclear

6) Powerful poke with high damage

7) Low cooldown (5.5 seconds max)

8) A perfect skill for zone control

9) Farming, E>Q

Now let's look at the disadvantages:

Q:

1) Narrow hitbox

2) Hard to lane, Easily Dodged

3) Unlike E's AOE, only hit 2 targets

4) Miss = Death

5) Slow traveling

6) 2 second bind at all rank

7) Although the cooldown is low, but still hard to ensure that lux can survive that long without Q

8) High ap ratio, but it's useless if continuously miss it

E:

1) Mana cost is not a joke

2) Enemies still able to dodge because of the slow traveling

3) Low ap ratio

As you can see, Lux's E has way lot more advantages and less disadvantages than her Q. I'm not trying to say that E is a lot better than Q, just that her E has provided so much with itself that is good enough for her entire team.
