For those aspiring to be an expert in playing Estes, this extensive ONE Esports guide will help you achieve just that.
Estes’ skills in Mobile Legends
Passive – Scripture of the Moon Elf
Scripture of the Moon Elf slowly charges Estes with energy. When the energy reaches a certain number of stacks, his next Basic Attack will become enhanced, dealing magic damage to the target and nearby enemies, and slowing them.
First skill – Moonlight Immersion
Estes restores HP to the target hero and links himself to them for a few seconds, slowly restoring additional HP.
Linking with an ally will also increase his physical attack and magic power (scales with the number of linked heroes and their attributes), his movement speed, and charging rate of Scripture of the Moon Elf.
Being too far from the target will break the link.
Second skill – Domain of Moon Goddess
Estes drops a flood of moonlight on the target area, dealing magic damage to enemy units within it. Afterwards, it turns into a domain of the Moon Goddess and reveals enemies inside it. Enemies will be greatly slowed if they touch the edge of the domain area. The slow effect decays over time.
Ultimate – Blessing of Moon Goddess
Estes casts enhanced Moonlight Immersion on all nearby allied heroes. Within the next several seconds, Moonlight Immersion will be enhanced, and Estes will continuously recover HP.

Recommended battle spell
Playing as Estes, you are likely to be the priority target of enemies, making Purify as your battle spell crucial.
It instantly removes stun and other debuffs, allowing you to cast Blessing of Moon Goddess at the right moment.
Alternatively, opt forFlickerif the other team lacks reliable crowd-control skills. It gives you a mobility spell that Estes lacks, which can help you get out of sticky situations.
Additionally, you can use this battle spell to quickly position yourself near allies in need.
Recommended emblem
Naturally, the Support emblem works best for Estes, as it amplifies healing effect, while granting substantial cooldown reduction and movement speed bonuses.
Take Agility in the first tier for additional movement speed, and Tenacity in the second tier to have increased defense when you are at low HP.
For your core talent, pick Focusing Mark, which increases the damage of allied heroes to your target for a few seconds.
You can also opt for a more front line approach by picking the Common Emblem. This gives you Hybrid Regen, HP, and Adaptive Attack. Choose Agility, Pull Yourself Together, and Focusing Mark as your talents.

The best build for Estes in Mobile Legends
Easy combos to learn
As Estes, your main role is to support your allies by healing them. Nonetheless, you’re able to still exert pressure on opponents by hitting them with Domain of Moon Goddess, followed by the enhanced basic attack from Scripture of the Moon Elf.
However, you may need to conserve your mana, and primarily use it for Moonlight Immersion to heal your teammates.
When engaging in team fights, activate the Blessing of Moon Goddess when you see an opportune moment. Proceed by immediately casting the enhanced version of Moonlight Immersion to provide sustained healing to the entire team.
Be mindful of your positioning during clashes to effectively support your allies. If you are positioned too far at the backline, you risk being out of reach to heal your tank.
Conversely, standing at the forefront renders you vulnerable to enemy attacks.
Striking the balance entails positioning yourself in the middle of your team’s formation, enabling you to heal your teammates with the Blessing of Moon Goddess.
