Aamon’s skills in Mobile Legends
Passive – Invisible Armor
Aamon enters the Camouflage state each time he hits an enemy with a skill, during which he cannot be targeted, restores HP for a duration, and gains extra Movement Speed that rapidly decays over time. Upon leaving the Camouflage state, Aamon immediately resets his Basic Attacks’s cooldown and enhances his Basic Attacks within the next few seconds.
Each enhanced Basic Attack deals Magic Damage and reduces Aamon’s skill cooldowns. The first enhanced Basic Attack’s damage is increased to a certain percentage if Aamon leaves the Camouflage state actively.
First skill – Soul Shards
Passive: Aamon charges his armor each time he casts a skill or hits an enemy with a skill or enhanced Basic Attack. At a certain number of charges, Aamon throws several shards at the target on his next attack, each shard dealing Magic Damage. The shards will then scatter around the target.
Active: Aamon throws a shard at a nearby enemy, dealing Magic Damage.
Second skill – Slayer Shards
Aamon throws a shard forward, dealing Magic Damage to the first non-minion enemy hit and slowing them for a duration. The shard will then return to Aamon immediately. If the shard fails to hit an enemy, it will return to Aamon after a short delay and allow him to enter the Camouflage state.
Ultimate – Endless Shards
Aamon throws all shards at a designated enemy and slows them down. After a short delay, the shards will fly to the enemy’s location again, each dealing Magic Damage. The number of shards increases with Aamon’s armor charges and the shards on the ground. The damage dealt increases with the target’s lost HP, to the maximum when the target’sHPis below a certain percentage. The same target takes less damage from subsequent attacks.
A comprehensive guide on how to play Aamon in Mobile Legends
Recommended battle spell
His high burst damage potential makes Aamon an efficient jungler, and Retribution amplifies this efficiency by allowing him to clear jungle monsters even more rapidly. This means Aamon can level up faster and gain gold to impact the game better.
More than faster jungle clear, it also boosts your kill potential, specifically the Ice Retribution blessing. This type of blessing allows you to steal movement speed from your target depending on your level for several seconds, making you agile while slowing them down.
The Execute spell is another excellent choice for the Duke of Shards. As an assassin, Aamon’s primary role is to eliminate key enemy heroes swiftly.
Execute helps him fulfill this role by dealing true damage to an enemy hero based on their current HP, making it a powerful finisher move.
This spell is particularly useful when Aamon’s target manages to survive his initial burst damage. A well-timed Execute can secure the kill, ensuring Aamon’s mission is successfully completed.
Recommended emblem
You can customize either the Assassin emblem or the Mage emblem depending on your playstyle. Go for the Assassin emblem if you like a high-tempo, aggressive gameplay.
Otherwise, use the Mage emblem for sustained damage throughout the game.
Both ways, the best approach is to get Agility, Seasoned Hunter and War Cry.
Agility offers a boost in Movement Speed that will help you roam and repositioning, especially in the early game.
Seasoned Hunter allows you to contest objectives better, dealing additional damage toLordandTurtle.
Finally, War Cry provides a significant increase in attack power for a short duration. This boost in attack power can be crucial during engagements, allowing you to deal more damage to enemies and secure kills.
Best build
Choose the Ice Retribution blessing and complete Arcane Boots. If you want to play aggressively, quickly follow up withGenius Wandfor the Magic Penetration and Magic Power boost. This will help you secure early game pick-offs.
Otherwise, go for Feather of Heaven. This item significantly boosts your hero’s Magic Power, Attack Speed, and Movement Speed.
Double down on your burst damage capability by purchasing Holy Crystal andDivine Glaive.
Holy Crystal improves Magic Damage exponentially as you transition to the late game, while Divine Glaive increases your kill threat versus durable enemies.
Finish your item build with Blood Wings for more Magic Damage. It also provides a shield, which goes a long way especially in the late game when enemies are looking to burst you down.
You can also include Windtalker in your item build in the mid-game as a substitute for Feather of Heaven. The item gives a good boost to your mobility which allows you to hunt backline heroes better.
The best build for Aamon in Mobile Legends
Tips and easy combos to learn
Aamon is a highly mobile hero. Use his skills to activate his passive ability, Invisible Armor, which allows you to move quickly around the map.
This mobility can be used to chase down enemies, escape dangerous situations, or reposition during team fights.
As an assassin, the Duke of Shards excels in picking off isolated targets, so maintaining good map awareness is crucial. Always watch the minimap and look for opportunities to ambush enemies.
His basic combo involves using Slayer Shards and hitting the enemy once or twice. Then, immediately use Soul Shards. This combo maximizes your damage output and is great for taking down enemy heroes.
He also has the potential to one-shot enemies with the right combo. To achieve this, you need to fully utilize his passive ability and his ultimate, Endless Shards.
The key is to stack up your passive by hitting enemies with your Basic Attacks and skills, then unleash your ultimate for the burst down.
