Benedetta, the Shadow Ranger, will be available on November 7th (Server Time). Diamond 599. Battle Point 32,000.
Hero Feature: A ranger that fights for hope.
Skill 1: [Phantom Slash]
Benedetta withdraws swiftly and leaves a shadow in front. After a short delay, her shadow slashes forward in a fan-shaped area, dealing Physical Damage and slowing the enemies. Meanwhile, Benedetta dashes forward to slash, dealing Physical Damage. (If the target is hit by her shadow, damage caused by Benedetta herself will increase.)
Skill 2: [An Eye for An Eye]
Benedetta raises her weapont o defend, gains Control Immunity and blocks damage from any source in a period of time. After defense, she stabs in a designated direction dealing Physical Damage. If Benedetta defends a CC effect successfully during defense, she will gain full Sword Intent and stun the target.
Ultimate: [Alecto: Final Blow]
Benedetta clenches Alecto and slashes forward after a short delay (invincible while dashing), slowing all targets on the path. After dashing, Benedetta detonates Sword Intent on the path, strangling the enemy with the Sword Intent, dealing Physical Damage and slowing the enemy.
Passive: [Elapsed Daytime]
When holding down the [Basic Attack] button, Benedetta enters a Swordout state and keeps gathering the Sword Intent. If releasing the [Basic Attack] button after the Sword Intent is fully charged, Benedetta will use Swordout Slash in [the direction she’s facing] and dash forward, dealing Physical Damage (identified as Skill Damage and decays on minions and creeps) to enemies on the path. Only when Benedetta is in Swordout State and her Sword Intent is fully charged, she can release the Swordout Slash. Benedetta can also gain Sword Intent when dealing damage via Basic Attack and Skills.
In this patch we have revamped Lapu-Lapu, the Courageous Blade!
[From the Designers]
Having two stances of twin blades and heavy sword, as well as the mechanisms in corresponding stances, is the biggest feature of the revamped Lapu Lapu. In the revamp, we have retained his main feature of swapping weapons and redesigned his skills. Our purpose is to highlight the difference between his two stances and create more possibilities for this old hero.
Hero Feature: The warrior that fights for freedom and has two stances.
Passive:
[Homeland Defender] Each time Lapu-Lapu deals damage, he gains [Bravery Blessing]. When his [Bravery Blessing] is full, his next Basic Attack or [Justice Blades] will be enhanced, granting Lapu-Lapu a shield that can absorb damage. The enhanced [Basic Attack] will cause him to dash toward the target, dealing Physical Damage. The enhanced [Justice Blades] will slow the target.
Skill 1:
[Justice Blades] (Twin-Blade Stance) Lapu-Lapu releases two boomerangs in the designated direction. Each boomerang deals Physical Damage to enemies hit on its way out or back. If the two boomerangs hit the same target, it will only deal part of the damage with the second boomerang. Each target can take damage 4 times at most.
[Land Shaker] (Heavy-Sword Stance) Lapu-Lapu gathers strength with his heavy sword Then I anu-l anu slashes with his heavy sword in a designated direction, dealing Physical Damage to enemies hit and stunning them.
Skill 2:
[Jungle Warrior] (Twin-Blade Stance) Lapu-Lapu slashes his twin blades and charges in a designated direction, dealing Physical Damage to enemies on the path.
[Storm Sword] (Heavy-Sword Stance) Lapu-Lapu whirls his heavy sword, dealing, Physical Damage to nearby enemies. For each enemy hero hit, he gains a damage reduction.
Ultimate:
[Bravest Fighter] (Twin-Blade Stance) Lapu-Lapu leaps up in the air, combines his twin blades into one, and lands on the ground, dealing Physical Damage to enemies in the area and slowing them. He then enters the [Heavy Sword Stance).
[Raging Slash] (Heavy-Sword Stance) Lapu-Lapu releases three continuous slashes with his heavy sword forward deals Physical Damage. During the slashes Lapu-Lapu is immune to control effects. Right after each slash, he is able to change his direction and slightly move.
[Belerick]
