Overview
Hero Overview Aulus is a Fighter hero who excels at diving into battles, chasing down enemies, and dealing massive continuous damage. After his revamp, he relies more on skill combos rather than just basic attacks. He is commonly played in the EXP Lane or as a Jungler. His kit allows him to be very aggressive, with built-in mobility, crowd control immunity, and sustain, making him a terrifying threat in the mid to late game.
Strengths
Hero Strength - High Mobility & Chase: Skill 1 gives him a dash and movement speed boost, perfect for catching enemies or repositioning. - CC Immunity: After using Skill 1, he becomes immune to crowd control for a short time, allowing him to enter fights safely. - Great Sustain: Skill 2 provides lifesteal, helping him stay in lane or jungle without needing to recall often. - Durable & Dangerous: His Ultimate reduces damage taken, increases speed, and deals Area of Effect damage, making him tough to kill while dishing out pain. - Snowball Potential: Once he gets his core items and stacks his passive, he can easily carry games and melt enemy backlines.
Weaknesses
Hero Weakness - Weak Early Game: He is quite vulnerable at the start and can be easily bullied by heroes with high burst or range. - Skill Dependent: His effectiveness relies heavily on having his skills ready; if they are on cooldown, he is much weaker. - Vulnerable to Kiting: Ranged heroes and those with long crowd control can stop him before he gets close enough to deal damage. - Dash Limitation: His Skill 1 dash stops at the first enemy hit, so good positioning and aiming are very important. - Mana Issues: He can run out of mana quickly if he spams skills too much in the early game.
Balance Damage & tank build
Explanation This build is designed to make Aulus tanky enough to survive fights while still dealing massive damage. It gives him a good mix of Physical Attack, Cooldown Reduction, Health, and Defense. Key Equipment: - War Axe: The core item for Aulus. It provides damage, health, and cooldown reduction. Its passive increases damage the longer you fight, which fits his playstyle perfectly. - Corrosion Scythe: Adds attack speed and movement speed. Its passive slows enemies down, making it very easy for Aulus to chase and hit them continuously. - Brute Force Breastplate: Gives extra health and defense. Every time you use a skill or attack, you gain more movement speed and defense, making you faster and harder to kill. - Rose Gold Meteor: Provides both attack and magic defense. It also gives a shield when your HP is low, saving you from burst magic damage. - Queen's Wings: Increases damage reduction and lifesteal when your HP is low, allowing you to survive and fight back even at critical health. - Corrosion Scythe: Adds attack speed and movement speed. Its passive slows enemies down, making it very easy for Aulus to chase and hit them continuously. - Brute Force Breastplate: Gives extra health and defense. Every time you use a skill or attack, you gain more movement speed and defense, making you faster and harder to kill. - Rose Gold Meteor: Provides both attack and magic defense. It also gives a shield when your HP is low, saving you from burst magic damage. - Queen's Wings: Increases damage reduction and lifesteal when your HP is low, allowing you to survive and fight back even at critical health. This build allows Aulus to dive into the enemy team, take damage, and output consistent pressure throughout the game.
Fighter Emblem
Talent Setup - Tier 1: Rupture Adds Adaptive Penetration, helping you deal more damage by ignoring enemy armor, especially effective in early game trades. - Tier 2: Seasoned Hunter (if Jungler) or Festival of Blood (if EXP Lane)- Seasoned Hunter: Increases damage to creeps, Turtle, and Lord, making farming and securing objectives faster. - Festival of Blood: Grants Spell Vamp and extra Physical Attack, greatly improving your survivability and sustain during fights. - Tier 3: War Cry Boosts your Continuous Damage, which fits Aulus perfectly since he excels at dealing damage over time with his skills and basic attacks. Alternative: Assassin Emblem If you want more burst damage and penetration: - Tier 1: Rupture - Tier 2: Master Assassin (increases damage to isolated targets) - Tier 3: Killing Spree (heals and gives speed after a kill, great for chaining fights) Why choose Fighter Emblem? It is the most versatile choice. The extra HP, defense, and sustain allow you to stay longer in fights, while the attack and penetration ensure you still hit hard. This makes Aulus both durable and dangerous, which is exactly what he needs after the revamp.
Battle Spell
Here is the content for the Spell Description section, specifically for Retribution on Revamped Aulus: Spell Description Retribution is the best choice for Aulus when playing as a Jungler. It allows him to clear jungle camps very quickly and gain gold and experience faster than enemies. The passive effect reduces damage taken from creeps, making it easier to sustain while farming, and the extra gold helps him get his core items sooner. Tips for using it: - Use it to secure buffs and important objectives like Turtle and Lord. - Time it well to last hit creeps and maximize gold gain. - Remember that you cannot share minion gold with teammates in the first 5 minutes, so focus on farming your jungle first. - The damage reduction in your own jungle helps you stay healthy and gank lanes more often.
Mid to Late Game
Mid to Late Game Tips and Strategies Early Game (0-5 Minutes) - Focus on Farming: Aulus is weak early, so prioritize clearing jungle or minions to get gold and XP. - Avoid Unnecessary Fights: Do not 1v1 heroes with high burst or range. Play safe and wait for items. - Gank Carefully: Only gank lanes if your teammate is there to help. Use your speed to surprise enemies. - Manage Mana: Don't spam skills too much, or you will run out of mana quickly. Mid Game (6-12 Minutes) - Become Aggressive: Once you have War Axe and Corrosion Scythe, you start to get strong. - Chase Enemies: Use your speed and slow effects to hunt down isolated enemies. - Secure Objectives: Help your team take Turtle and towers. Your damage to objectives is good. - Roam Around: Move between lanes to help teammates and pressure the map. Late Game (13+ Minutes) - Initiate Fights: You are now very tanky and deal massive damage. You can be the first to enter a team fight. - Target Backlines: Use Skill 1 to dash through or past tanks and go straight for the enemy Mage or Marksman. - Use Ultimate Wisely: Activate it when you are about to take damage or when you want to maximize your damage output. - Stay Together: Don't walk alone. You are strong, but you can still be caught and killed by the whole enemy team. - End the Game: Use your strength to push lanes and destroy the enemy base. General Tips - Skill Combo: Usually Skill 1 (dash) -> Skill 2 (attack) -> Basic Attacks -> Ultimate when needed. - CC Immunity: Remember that after using Skill 1, you are immune to crowd control for a short time. Use this moment to enter fights safely. - Stack Passive: Try to keep hitting enemies to keep your passive stacks up for more damage and defense.
Best With Tigreal
1. Tigreal Tigreal is the perfect partner for Aulus. He can pull or stun multiple enemies together, setting them up perfectly for Aulus to jump in and unleash his full damage combo. The crowd control ensures enemies cannot escape or kite Aulus.
Watch Out For Estes
2. Estes Estes is Aulus's best support. His healing and movement speed boost allow Aulus to stay in fights forever, sustain through damage, and chase enemies down easily. The extra shield also protects Aulus from burst damage.
