League of Legends Patch 13.18: Bug with Moonstone Renewer Persists
The recent release of League of Legends Patch 13.18 on Sept. 13 brought a range of new content, adjustments, and bug fixes. However, players are still encountering an ongoing issue related to the Moonstone Renewer.
In a Reddit post shortly after the patch dropped, a player reported that Ivern’s Shield ability (E) does not work on isolated allies when equipped with the Moonstone Renewer.
The bug has apparently been present since Patch 13.14, which was released on July 19. The player expressed frustration, stating, “It’s a very significant bug, especially with Ivern having a presence in pro play/LEC. We’ve reported it, but we haven’t received any response from Riot for 2 months. I would love to bring attention to it.”
To support their claim, the player shared a video demonstrating the bug with Ivern. It showed the shield working properly without the item and in various situations, except when used on an isolated ally with the Moonstone Renewer equipped.
Other players expressed frustration in the comments, citing previous bugs associated with the powerful item. One user wrote, “Moonstone gets bugged at least on 1 champ EVERY PATCH. Most often on Sona and Seraphine, but it’s so tiring.”
Issues with Moonstone Renewer
The recurring issues with the Moonstone Renewer should not be overlooked, especially since the item is widely used in competitive play. These buggy interactions could have a significant impact on high-stakes games.
It remains uncertain whether Riot Games plans to address this bug. In the meantime, players have also pointed out other bugs related to Singed’s interactions with Cosmic Drive and Conqueror Rune that should have been resolved earlier.
Main Changes in Patch 13.18 and Upcoming World Championship
Aside from the bug, Patch 13.18 introduced the new jungler Briar and included various balance changes. The next patch, however, is expected to bring more substantial balance adjustments as it will be used in this year’s World Championship, scheduled to begin on Oct. 10.
