SKILLS
This is the list of skills of Han Xin
Passive
Killing Spear
Cooldown: 0s, Cost: 0
Han Xin’s fourth basic attack will knock the enemy up for 0.5 seconds.
After hitting a target with a skill, Han Xin gains a 50% attack speed bonus.
Tips: This passive provides crowd control that can interrupt enemy skill chains. After the knock-up, there’s an opportunity to connect additional skills. The attack speed boost helps Han Xin trigger this passive more effectively.
Skill 01
Ruthless Assault
Cooldown: 7.5/7.2/6.9/6.6/6.3/6s, Cost: 45
Han Xin charges toward the specified target area with his spear, dealing 300/320/340/360/380/400 (+55% Physical Attack) physical damage and knocking up enemies in the area for 0.8 seconds. A second charge can be used within 5 seconds after the first, but it will not knock up enemies.
Tips: This skill provides two stages of mobility and one instance of knock-up, making it versatile for both offensive and defensive maneuvers. Using both stages together offers significant mobility, while using them separately helps to trigger the passive. The initial knock-up also aids in landing Han Xin’s ultimate more effectively.
Skill 02
Fight or Die!
Cooldown: 5s, Cost: 50
Han Xin jumps backward and transforms his next basic attack into a sweeping attack that lasts for 3 seconds. The sweep deals 180/200/220/240/260/280 (+100% Physical Attack) physical damage to enemies in the area.
Tips: This skill provides a displacement effect and increased damage. When used with Ruthless Assault, it enables rapid support and striking. The short cooldown also makes it useful for retreating.
Ultimate
The Unrivaled Spear
Cooldown: 30/27/24s, Cost: 140
Han Xin wildly swings his spear in the specified direction four times, dealing 250/300/350 (+85% Physical Attack) physical damage to each enemy hit. The final attack will knock up enemies in the area for 0.5 seconds. During this ultimate, Han Xin is in a super armor state and gains 30% damage reduction.
Tips: This ultimate provides a knock-up effect and a super armor state (though it can be interrupted by certain skills, it has no cooldown after interruption). It is effective for disrupting enemy formations and creating chaos in enemy ranks.
