SKILLS
This is the list of skills of Gan and Mo.
Passive
Forever Entwined
Cooldown: 0s, Cost: 0
When releasing Flying Sword skills, Mo will pair with Gan’s Male Sword, sending out the Female Sword to deal equivalent damage. The Flying Sword skills share a maximum number of uses. When the Male and Female Swords hit an enemy target, they each stack Sword Qi. When the Flying Sword hits a target wrapped in Sword Qi, each Sword Qi deals an additional 75/90/105/120/135/150 (+12% Magic Attack) magic damage. Gan & Mo’s basic attack uses the Flying Sword to slash at the target, dealing 300 (+25% Magic Attack) magic damage.
Tips: Compared to other heroes, although Gan & Moโs projectiles are unique, their passive gives them a larger coverage area and allows them to deal more damage at the intersection points.
Skill 01
Guard Her Grave
Cooldown: 12/11/10/9/8/7s, Cost: 80
Gan thrusts the Sword Tomb forward twice, pushing back and knocking up enemies while retreating. The Sword Tomb deals 300/350/400/450/500/550 (+50% Magic Power) magic damage and knocks back enemies. Enemies hit by the Sword Tomb have their Magic Defense reduced by 150/180/210/240/270/300 for 3 seconds.
Passive: Each hero kill or assist increases Gan’s permanent Magic Power by 15 points, stacking up to 20 layers.
Tips: This is Gan’s self-protection skill. It also allows him to reposition himself, creating enough distance between him and the enemy during combat.

Coupled Blades – Short
Cooldown: 8s, Cost: 45
Gan releases the Male Sword to fly along a path, dealing 350/420/490/560/630/700 (+45% Magic Attack) magic damage to enemies in its path. When Sword Qi is triggered, each Sword Qi deals an additional 75/90/105/120/135/150 (+12% Magic Attack) magic damage. The Flying Sword skills share a maximum number of uses, and the use count is restored every 6 to 5 seconds (depending on the skill level).
When the same Sword Qi is triggered multiple times, the subsequent damage is reduced to 50%.
Tips: Although Gan needs to maintain a certain combat distance, this skill allows for some counterattacks when an enemy gets too close.

Cooldown: 8s, Cost: 45
Gan releases the Female Sword to fly along a path, dealing 350/420/490/560/630/700 (+45% Magic Attack) magic damage to enemies in its path.
