Daji Skill Combo
It’s best to use this skill combo in Daji’s ambushes to deal massive amounts of damage and insta-kill enemies.
You’ll deal more damage when starting off with Skill 3, and it also gives more flexibility than Skill 2.
Daji Pro Build
Movement speed and skill power are the Core of Daji’s reinforcement and damage output. Boots of Deftness, Scepter of Reverberation, and Savant’s Wrath makes her decently strong and grants fast damage output, while Splendor effectively improves Daji’s survivability and flexibility.
Daji Battle Tips
- As Daji is weak in early game, farming quickly is core.
- As Daji relies heavily on skills, after using a set of skills in a teamfight, make sure to withdraw from the teamfight’s range while waiting for the skills to cooldown.
- If you encounter heroes with Super Armor or resistance skills such as Lian Po, Sun Wukong, Gongsun Li, or Diao Chan, you can use Skill 3 to bait the enemy into using their skills before using Skill 2 to control them.
- In battle, use skill 1 to poke enemies, and when skill 2 hits, use skills 1 and 3 to ensure skill accuracy and sufficient damage output.
- During team fights, stay on the flanks and use skill 1 for damage and poke. If an enemy assassin dives in, use skill 2 to control them and ensure your own survival.
