SKILL ANALYSIS

Passive Skill : JUNGLE HEART


Jungle Heart allow Irithel attack a single target with 3 hits for each basic attack, but each hit deal 45% physical damage. So total damage for each basic attack should be 135% (45% x 3). Thus, Irithel basic attack damage is quite high but her attack speed is slower than other marksman hero.

Active Skill 1: STRAFE


Strafe is an aoe attack skill that not only deal decent physical damage, it also greatly reduce physical defense at max level.

Picture below show aoe of the skill. If target is near to Irithel, strafe is unable to hit the target. So make sure the target is whithin aoe before casting the skill. If target get hit by Strafe, there will be a small shield break symbol showing that target is under physical defense reduce buff.


TIPS: Very powerful skill to counter high physical defense enemies like tank.

Leo not just a mount for Irithel, by using this skill, Leo will attack surrounding enemies with decent physical damage, and  greatly reduce their movement speed.
