Get Excited!

Get Excited!

Innate: Whenever Jinx scores a takedown against an enemy champion, epic monster, turret, or inhibitor within 3 seconds of damaging them, she gains  175% bonus movement speed which decays over 6 seconds.

Additionally, she gains  25% total attack speed and is allowed to exceed the attack speed cap for the same duration.

• Hide
• Details

Info

Targeting input	Passive

• Jinx's attack speed cap is increased to 90.0 for the duration, however this value is already beyond the technical limit for attack speed.
• Jinx will still trigger Get Excited from killing a summoned Rift Herald.
• Jinx will fail to trigger Get Excited in the specific circumstance of killing Baron Nashor while more than ~2500 distance away.^(bug)

Edit

Switcheroo!

Switcheroo!
EFFECT RADIUS:	250
CAST TIME:	none
COST:	16 / 17 / 18 / 19 / 20 Mana per attack with Fishbones
STATIC COOLDOWN:	0.9

Toggle: Jinx switches between Pow-Pow, her minigun, and Fishbones, her rocket launcher.

Pow-Pow: Basic attacks with Pow-Pow grant Jinx a stack of Rev'd up for 2.5 seconds, stacking up to 3 times, with the duration refreshing on subsequent attacks with Pow-Pow. Rev'd up grants  bonus attack speed, with the first stack being twice as potent as the others. Stacks decay one at a time as they time-out.

Maximum Attack Speed: 30 / 55 / 80 / 105 / 130%

Fishbones: Basic attacks with Fishbones cost  mana on-attack to deal 110% AD modified physical damage to the primary target as well as all secondary targets in an area around them. The damage is affected by critical strike modifiers. While using Fishbones, Jinx gains  bonus range but loses  10% of her bonus attack speed.

Bonus Range: 100 / 125 / 150 / 175 / 200

Attacks with Fishbones will not refresh the stack timer on Rev'd up and only the first attack after switching to it will benefit from Rev'd up's bonus attack speed.

• Toggle abilities do not count as ability activations for the purposes of on-cast effects such as Spellblade and stacking Force Pulse.
• Jinx's first attack after switching to Fishbones can be triggered after 0.4 seconds, instead of using the attack timer.
• Despite Jinx starting the game using Pow-Pow she doesn't receive any bonus attack speed until Switcheroo! has been learned.
• Fishbones splash damage affects structures (minions will target Jinx) but does not affect targets if Jinx's attacks are blocked, dodged, or missed.
• With Runaan's Hurricane Pow-Pow generates one stack per enemy hit.
• Each of Runaan's Hurricane's additional bolts apply Fishbones' splash damage, which stacks with each other.
• Both weapons deal basic damage to their primary target (this includes the increased damage of Fishbones), which applies  life steal based on the damage dealt (post-mitigation) as usual.
• The splash damage of Fishbones is based on the pre-mitigation damage done to the primary target (which includes critical strikes), and is not considered modified physical damage. It deals default damage: It doesn't apply  life steal or on-hit effects.
  • Fishbones damage: 110% AD (100% + 10%).
  • Fishbones critical strike damage: 192.5% AD ((100% + 10%) × 1.75).
  • Fishbones critical strike damage with Infinity Edge: 231% AD ((100% + 10%) × 2.1).
  • Fishbones bolt damage: 44% AD ((100% + 10%) ×  0.4).
  • Fishbones bolt critical strike damage: 77% AD ((100% + 10%) ×  0.4 × 1.75).
  • Fishbones bolt critical strike damage with Infinity Edge: 92.4% AD ((100% + 10%) ×  0.4 × 2.1).
  • Fishbones potential damage on stacked enemies with Runaan's Hurricane: 198% AD (110% + 44% + 44%).
  • Fishbones potential critical strike damage on stacked enemies with Runaan's Hurricane: 346.5% AD ((110% + 44% + 44%) × 1.75).
  • Fishbones potential critical strike damage on stacked enemies with Runaan's Hurricane and Infinity Edge: 415.8% AD ((110% + 44% + 44%) × 2.1).

WIDTH:	280
SPEED:	1700 / 2200
CAST TIME:	0.6
COST:	100 Mana
COOLDOWN:	75 / 65 / 55

Active: Jinx fires a rocket in the target direction, granting brief sight of the area it flies through. The rocket explodes upon colliding with an enemy champion, dealing physical damage to them and all enemies in an area around them and granting sight of the area around them for 2 seconds.

The rocket deals 10% − 100% (based on distance traveled) damage; the bonus damage based on missing health is kept the same.

Maximum Physical Damage: 250 / 400 / 550 (+ 150% bonus AD) (+ 25 / 30 / 35% of target's missing health) Minimum Physical Damage: 25 / 40 / 55 (+ 15% bonus AD) (+ 25 / 30 / 35% of target's missing health)

Enemies surrounding the main target take 80% damage. Bonus damage based on missing health is based on each unit's own missing health, with a maximum bonus damage of 800 against monsters.

Maximum Secondary Damage: 200 / 320 / 440 (+ 120% bonus AD) (+ 20 / 24 / 28% of target's missing health) Minimum Secondary Damage: 20 / 32 / 44 (+ 12% bonus AD) (+ 20 / 24 / 28% of target's missing health)

• Spell shield will not prevent the explosion.
• Super Mega Death Rocket will fire from wherever Jinx was at the start of the cast time.
• The minimap icon of Super Mega Death Rocket can be seen by Jinx and all her allies.
• Unlike similar spells, Super Mega Death Rocket will not increase it's damage when ranked up while the missile is in flight.^(bug)
  • This is because the base damage is fixed at a multiple of the damage the rocket initially started with.
  • The bonus AD ratio will still update when AD is gained or lost between the cast and hit of the missile.

Tips & Tricks

• The maximum damage is reached after traveling 1500 units, which is equal to roughly 0.85 seconds of travel time. The rocket changes its visual appearance and missile speed slightly earlier, after traveling 1350 units.
