I was slapping some minions around today and i forced Evelynn to just stand there and spam hate spike on two minions until 1 died and compared the damage to when hate spike was only hitting one minion.

From what I recall, it was doing something like 18 damage to one, and 35 damage to the primary target. When 1 minion died, it started doing something like 40 damage to the primary one.

I can't recall all too clearly, but I can promise you, whoever is reading this : the numbers and text on the wiki here of her hate spike is wrong and misleading. Hitting 2 targets doesn't "rob" your hate spike of any power whatsoever, additional damage just splashes over to other targets, much like some items like Tiamat and other skills of the sort..

And if it does, it's not going to be alot, and it definitely won't be a 50% reduction in power.

Whatever the in-game data says the x (+y) number is for hate spike, trust it. I've done a few calculations while in-game and the +y (ap ratio) kind of fluctuates between .4028 and .42xx. I am guessing there's some wierd decimals being bounced around, either that, or calculating it isn't very accurate on low AP numbers.

More often than not, you'll get a .42 result if you calculate it yourself.

So .42 isn't so bad, definitely not that misleading .28 listed up there.

Plus, it's funny to see one of the posters below complaining about her hate spike doing no damage, when little does he realize it's on a .8 second CD and you are free to move while casting it and it doesn't interrupt your Autoattack animations, and it doesn't have any casting animation whatsoever.
