Claim a swift victory with Augran’s mysterious abilities

Assist your team, or unleash a deadly assault on your enemies with Augran, who bears a mysterious past and a myriad of possibilities. The new Hero strikes an aloof figure in the Misty Marshes and bears many secrets about the past. Augran is capable of summoning the spirits of his enemies to defeat opponents and lead souls to a new cycle of rebirth. He strives to keep the denizens of the City of Misty Marshes safe and sound while leading lost souls to their next journey. Augran will be available for trial on July 25, and players will be able to acquire him for free by participating in the event campaign from July 27 – 28. Check out his skills below: 

Soul Resonance

Augran’s Basic Attacks resonate and link with the souls of his enemies, dealing physical damage each time. If the enemies cannot shake off the soul chain, the damage frequency increases until it ends and deals magical damage. The damages dealt by the soul chain when it begins and ends have a 100% on-hit effect, and the rest of the damage have some on-hit effect.

Skill 1: Path of Passing

Augran creates a path and deals magical damage to targets hit. The path creation speeds up when it hits a wall or the Life-Death Border, then deals additional magical damage when it hits more enemies. While on the path, he ignores terrain and gains a Movement Speed bonus. When the path hits a wall for the first time, a Bridge of Passing is created and he gains a large Movement Speed bonus while on it, slowing nearby enemies. Using the skill again or when the timer runs out will recall his weapon, and he enters the Seer state, killing targets with low Health instantly.

Skill 2: Death’s Precipice

Augran swings his weapon, dealing physical damage and slowing enemies ahead for a period of time. He creates a Life-Death Border that marks enemies who touch it, and deals additional damage to enemies that touch the branches on the Border. After casting the skill, the next Basic Attack is enhanced to deal additional damage and restore his Health. If there are marked targets within the attack range, the soul chain deals additional damage and restores his Health for each marked target nearby.

Skill 3: Conductor of Souls (Ultimate)

Augran unleashes his full power and descends from the sky, dealing physical damage and knocking back nearby enemies. If an enemy hero is hit, Augran restores some Health and creates a spirit to assist him. Upon landing, he enters Seer state and kills enemies at low Health with his Basic Attacks. For each enemy hero hit, his healing increases (up to 100%). The spirit inherits some of his physical damage and only performs Basic Attacks, but has faster Movement Speed and Attack Speed bonus.

Players will also now be able to view Hero recommendations and their corresponding difficulty level during the Hero setup, with several categories marked from Easy, Medium, Hard, and Very Hard. 

Shared benefits with teammates with the new Elite Player Privileges
