She's actually slightly overpowered and sorely lacking in weaknesses; the majority of which are removed by the purchase of a single item. As a Lux player, the buffs she received in Jayce patch were unnecessary and in the end only served to help her turn into the mindless spammy (popular) character that she is now.

Her ultimate needs its mana cost increased back to 100/150/200 and cooldown bumped to 80/70/60. You use it to clear waves, poke before teamfights and fish for objectives like it was a normal ability. There should be some thinking involved behind using it and not just firing it at leisure because you were 2000 units away from 2 minions and couldn't be arsed to walk up to them.

Gragas' ultimate had somewhat same reasoning when Riot nerfed its cooldown and it wasn't even as good as Lux's respective ultimate at those aforementioned things.
