Get to know Esmeralda's skills
(Passive) Moon Star Coffin
Relying on the energy of the Coffin - Stellar Moon, Esmeralda manipulates Stardust and Ice Moon. Each of your basic attacks and abilities deals damage twice - Star Dust deals physical damage, and the Ice Moon deals magic damage and gives the target a shield equal to 150% of the damage done by the Ice Moon. Esmeralda's damage ignores all shield effects and, in the meantime, transforms her shield into her own HP.
Frozen Moon Shield (Shield / Buff)
Cooldown: 8.5 / Mana cost: 60
Esmeralda generates 350 (+ 100% Total Magic Power) shield points for herself and increases her movement speed by 40%. Meanwhile, she gradually turns the shields of her close enemies into her own shield. The speed increase decays in a short time.
Stardust Dance (AoE)
Cooldown: 5.5 / Mana cost: 75
Emerald activates Star Dust and Cold Moon and causes 210 (+ 60% Total Physical Attack) points of physical damage and 210 (+ 90% Total Magic Power) points of magic damage to nearby enemies. Damage to enemies reduces the cooldown of the Icemoon Shield by 1 second.
Fall of the Full Moon (Explosion / Blink)
Cooldown: 32.0 / Mana Cost: 150
Esmeralda channels the power of Heaven in her two weapons. The longer the skill lasts, the greater the power inflicted. Use this ability to launch Star Dust to the designated location, dealing 350 (+90 Total Physical Attack) points of Physical Damage, and then Esmeralda moves to the designated location to cast the Ice Moon, dealing 350 (+ 140% Total Magic Power) Magic Damage points and immobilizing enemies in an area for 1.2s.
Best skill build
Evolve Star Dust Dance first and then Frozen Moon Shield. Be sure to update the ult whenever possible.
Baptism : to escape CC effects.
Petrify : adds a CC option to Esmeralda's gameplay.
Tips on how to play with Esmeralda
- Always try to combine the second skill after the first due to the reduced cooldown that happens when hitting the hit.
- Give preference to items that offer Cooldown Reduction. When you have about 40% less cooldown, the skill combo 1> 2 can keep your shield active at all times.
- Whenever using the ult, activate the shield first to gain the 40% speed bonus. This will keep you from slowing down when using the skill, allowing you to easily reach opponents or even guarantee your escape.
- Use the monsters on the map to enter team fights with the shield already activated.
- Esmeralda is extremely strong against heroes who cast shields, as she can steal them for herself.
