Hailing from the mountains of the Northern Vale,Mobile Legends: Bang Bangmage Aurora walks the Land of Dawn with Ice Magic at her fingertips.
The Maiden of the Glacier is known for her high burst damage and crowd control abilities. Her skills are centered around her control of ice and snow, which she uses to freeze enemies in their tracks and deal substantial damage.
As powerful as the Great Queen of the North is, playing her requires strategic thinking and precise timing. Mastering her abilities and understanding her role can make you an indispensable asset to your team, freezing your way to victory.
In this ONE Esports guide, we will delve into Aurora’s gameplay, providing you with a good look at her abilities, strategic approaches, and actionable tips to maximize her potential.
Aurora’s skills in Mobile Legends
Passive – Pride of Ice
After taking fatal damage, Aurora freezes herself for a few seconds, becoming invincible and gradually recovering a percent of her Max HP.
This effect has a cooldown. Aurora’s freeze effects can also affect Turrets.
First skill – Hailstone Blast
Aurora summons an icy meteorite to strike at the target location, dealing Magic damage and slowing targets hit by a percentage for a second. Afterward, several hailstones fall, each dealing Magic Damage.
Second skill – Frosty Breeze
Aurora blows Frosty Breeze in a fan-shaped area in the target direction, dealing Magic Damage to enemies hit, freezing them for a second, and creating a frozen area at the far end of the attack that deals Magic Damage to enemies in the area.
Ultimate – Frigid Glacier
Aurora creates a frost path in the target direction, dealing Magic Damage to enemies in the path and reducing their Movement Speed for a duration.
The frost path gradually becomes glaciers that spread until reaching their maximum size, shattering and dealing Magic Damage to all enemies in the area and freezing targets for a second.
Every specific point of Magic Power that Aurora has will increase the freeze duration by a fraction of a second.
A comprehensive guide on how to play Aurora in Mobile Legends
Recommended battle spell
The best battle spell you’re able to go for on Aurora isFlicker. First, it allows you to be in a better position to activate your damage spells, most especially your ultimate.
Secondly, it gives you an escape mechanic. It comes very handy when you want to reposition after Pride of Ice is activated, when you will be invulnerable but also immobilized.
Speaking of her passive, it has one specific downside — it has a very long cooldown. This is why Purify is also a good consideration.
Whenever the enemy tries to use crowd control spells against you, you may activate the battle spell to debuff the effects when your passive skill is on cooldown. From that point, you can either go for a quick getaway or establish your position in the back line to counter-engage.
Recommended emblem
Take the Mage Emblem to get a boost in your Magic Power and Magic Penetration. It also gives you Cooldown Reduction which helps you activate your skills more frequently.
For your talents, take Rupture to get added Penetration, then Wilderness Blessing to boost your mobility in the jungle and river areas. These allow you to rotate more quickly and support other lanes better.
Finally, take Lethal Ignition as the main talent as it synchronizes well with your skill kit. A scorch effect will be inflicted on to the enemy when you deal damage greater than a certain percentage of the max HP of the enemy several times.
Aurora best build
Aurora thrives with a build that maximizes her burst damage and crowd control capabilities.
After boots, build Glowing as early as you can. This item boosts your Magic Power, HP, and Movement Speed. Outside of the stats, it also has a unique passive that allows you to deal scorch damage to enemies when you hit them with your skills.
Blood Wings is your second core item. This boosts your Magic Damage tremendously and provides a shield for better survivability which is crucial for a vulnerable mage like Aurora.
As you transition to the mid-game, purchase Wishing Lantern. More than the Magic Power, Mana, and Cooldown Reduction, it allows you to deal HP-based Magic Damage to enemies you hit with your skills.
Come late game, purchaseDivine Glaiveand Holy Crystal. Both items increase your burst potential incredibly, even when enemies have already purchased Magic Resistance items.
The best build for Aurora in Mobile Legends
Tips and easy combos to learn
At level one, prioritize upgrading Aurora’s first skill as it serves as her primary source of damage. You can rely on this skill to clear minion waves efficiently.
For dealing with enemy heroes, a well-placed combo of her second skill followed by her first skill can be a good way to catch them off-guard and send them back to their base. When the time comes to fully engage, unleash her second skill and Ultimate to freeze as many enemies as possible.
When in team fights, a smart strategy would be to first cast your Ultimate when the enemy is grouped. Immediately follow this up with her second skill to freeze them within the Ultimate’s Area of Effect (AOE). Finally, deliver a finishing blow with her first skill on the crowd-controlled targets for maximum damage.
Aurora’s strength lies in delivering AOE damage and controlling large areas, making her a valuable asset in team fights. Therefore, your primary focus should be on these engagements where her abilities truly shine. Avoid getting into solo fights, as that’s not where Aurora excels.
