YAO
Fighter
Jungler
Yao is a dynamic fighter in Honor of Kings, excelling in burst damage and mobility. His skills allow him to heal, control enemies, and reposition strategically in battles. A suitable build focuses on enhancing his physical attack and survivability, maximizing his damage output and ensuring he can sustain in skirmishes while threatening foes effectively.
SKILLS
This is the list of skills of Yao
Passive
Gift of the Stars
When Yaoโs skills hit an enemy unit, he restores 70โ140 (+2% Bonus HP) health. Each time he uses a skill, he gains a stack of Star Power. When fully charged, Yao gains the ability to use an enhanced skill for 3 seconds. After using the enhanced skill, his next basic attack is also enhanced, allowing him to dash towards the enemy and deal an additional 70 (+20% Physical Attack) physical damage.
Tips: The passive allows Yao to chain two skill uses in a row. You can choose to enhance Skill 1 for higher burst damage, Skill 2 for greater mobility, or Skill 3 for improved survivability.
Skill 01
Shattered Illusions Slice
Cooldown: 6/5.8/5.6/5.4/5.2/5s, Cost: 0
Yao rapidly spins his blade, dealing 340/408/476/544/612/680 (+120% Bonus Physical Attack) physical damage to nearby enemies.
Tips: This is Yao’s primary damage burst skill.
Skill 02
Starburn
Cooldown: 7/6.8/6.6/6.4/6.2/6s, Cost: 0
Yao quickly dashes to the left, dealing 100/120/140/160/180/200 (+50% Physical Attack) physical damage to enemies in his path and slowing them by 50% for 1โ2 seconds.
Tips: When predicting the direction of this skill, note that the enhanced version will move Yao to the right, while the non-enhanced version moves him to the left.
Ultimate
Retrun to Dust
Cooldown: 15/12/9s, Cost: 0
Yao returns to the position he was in 2 seconds ago (as long as itโs within 600 units), clearing Starburn stacks and dealing 250/375/500 (+100% Physical Attack) magical damage to enemies along the path and at the endpoint.
Passive: 40% of the damage Yao takes is converted into Starburn, which is calculated over 2 seconds.
Tips: If Yao builds as a bruiser and can fight an enemy for more than 2 seconds, this ultimate can surprise opponents with unexpected damage.
