Edith’s skills in Mobile Legends: Bang Bang
Passive – Overload
After each skill cast, Edith and Phylax become overloaded for a duration, during which all Basic Attacks will trigger chain lightning, dealing extra Magic Damage to a certain number of enemies. Chain lightning damage against Minions is increased.
First tank skill – Earth Shatter
After a short delay, Edith controls Phylax to launch an earth-shattering blow in a designated direction, dealing Physical Damage to enemies (dealing more damage to Minions) and knocking them airborne for a second. Regular control effects (excluding Suppression) won’t interrupt this skill.
Second tank skill – Onward
Edith controls Phylax to charge in a target direction, dealing Physical Damage to enemies along the way. If Phylax hits an enemy hero during this process, it will stop immediately and throw them over its shoulder, dealing Physical Damage.
Ultimate – Primal Wrath
Passive: When inside Phylax, Edith can accumulate Wrath according to the damage she receives (calculated before damage reduction).
Active: Edith ejects herself forward from Phylax, knocking back nearby enemies. After that, she takes flight and can perform ranged Basic Attacks, each dealing Magic Damage. Edith also gains new skills in this state. When in flight, Edith gains extra Shield, extra Attack Speed, and Hybrid Lifesteal based on Wrath she accumulated, and converts each point of Extra Physical Defense and Extra Magic Defense into Magic Power. The Flight state lasts for a duration.
First marksman skill – Divine Retribution
Edith exacts Divine Retribution on a target area, dealing Magic Damage to enemies hit and slowing them. She then continues to deal Magic Damage to enemies in the area every fraction of a second over the next few seconds.
Second marksman skill – Lightning Bolt
Edith fires a Lightning Bolt in a designated direction, dealing Magic Damage to the first enemy hero hit and immobilizing them for a duration.
A comprehensive guide on how to play Edith in Mobile Legends
Recommended battle spell
The Forsaken Warden works best with the Flicker spell. Her marksman form makes her very vulnerable to control skills, so having Flicker is a lifesaver in sticky situations.
Also, Flicker can be used with her Earth Shatter and Onward skills and can help Edith set up fights and catch enemies off guard.
Recommended emblem
You want to be as beefy as possible when playing Edith, so opting for the tank emblem is the way to go. Opting for the tank emblem gives you added HP, Hybrid Defense, and HP Regen.
As for talents, take Swift for the extra Attack Speed. This allows you to trade blows in the laning phase. Alternatively, go for Agility if you’re playing as theroamerof the team. The Movement Speed boost is crucial for early-game lane support.
Take Tenacity next. This talent gives you increased Physical and Magical Defense when your HP goes below a certain threshold.
Lastly, take Quantum Charge as your primary talent. Each time you hit enemies with Basic Attacks, you increase your Movement Speed and restore HP.
The talent ensures that you’re able to stay on top of targets during skill combos or swiftly reposition to either continue pressuring the enemy or retreat to safety if the situation demands.
Edith best build
Classified as a dual-type hero, Edith can be built with a mix of offensive and defensive items. The hero’s best build is dependent on the enemy hero’s composition.
Whether playing as anEXP laneror as a roamer, the goal is to boost Edith’s durability so you can stay longer in skirmishes and control team fights.
After boots, go for Thunder Belt. This item enhances Edith’s survivability while its unique passive empowers your Basic Attacks after using a skill, adding burst damage and slowing enemies.
Build Starlium Scythe next. The item provides Attack Speed and additional damage, boosting your offensive potential in your marksman form while also offering critical sustain in battles with its lifesteal effect.
As you progress to the mid to late game, continue to boost your durability by acquiringAthena’s Shield or Radiant Armorfor Magic Resistance. GetAntique Cuirassor Blade Armor to mitigate Physical Damage from the enemy.
Finally, purchase Immortality for late-game insurance. The resurrection mechanic allows you to have a second chance to flee or continue controlling team fights.
When playing as a roamer, prioritizeDominance Ice. The item reduces the Attack Speed and healing effects of nearby enemies, which is particularly valuable against heroes who rely on lifesteal or have high Attack Speed.

Tips and easy combos to learn
In the laning phase, use Onward to start the battle and isolate the enemy away from the creeps or the tower. Once the enemy is thrown out of formation, use Earth Shatter to stun the enemy.
Immediately use Basic Attacks on the enemy after stunning them to proc the Overload passive.
In the mid to late game, it’s important to fill up your Wrath meter before using Primal Wrath. During a team fight, if the enemy jungler or marksman is out of position, use Onward first before stunning them with Earth Shatter.
Otherwise, use Earth Shatter first if the enemy team is close to one another and absorb their damage. Once the Wrath meter is full, immediately unleash havoc with Primal Wrath.
