As the Prince of the Abyss, Dyrroth harnesses the power of darkness to become a fearsome fighter hero in Mobile Legends: Bang Bang.

He can shred enemies using his ability to weaken their physical defense, allowing him to easily bring down squishy mages and marksmen in the backline.

He can unleash burst damage, and inflict multiple slow effects on enemies, while having a strong spell vamp through his passive.

To truly master playing as Dyrroth, it’s important to have a solid understanding of his abilities and how to use them effectively.

This in-depth ONE Esports guide covers everything you need to know, from the best build, recommended battle spells and emblems, to skill tips and combos that can help you dominate the game.



Dyrroth’s skills in Mobile Legends

Passive – Wrath of the Abyss

When Dyrroth’s Rage reaches one of the two bars, he will enhance his first two active skills, Burst Strike and Spectre Step.

After every two basic attacks, he will release Circle Strike, dealing physical damage to enemies in the circle and regenerating HP according to the damage he deals (Circle Strike doesn’t have an attack effect). Each time he hits an enemy hero, the cooldown of Burst Strike and Spectre Step will be decreased by one second.

  • He has two Rage bars, letting you cast the enhanced Burst Strike and Spectre Step consecutively.
  • An enhanced skill consumes one bar of his Rage.
  • Before attacking your target, ensure that the Rage bars are full or you have at least one.
  • Attacking minions and creeps fills his Rage.
  • As much as possible, go to the middle of a minion wave to maximize Circle Strike.
  • Circle Strike can critically strike, and benefits from physical lifesteal as well as skill effects.
  • However, HP regeneration from Circle Strike is halved against minions, and deals the same damage as regular attacks against turrets.


First skill – Burst Strike

Dyrroth releases a burst strike in a designated direction. Each burst deals physical damage to enemies and slows them for a few seconds. (The damage decays against the same target and decreases on minions.)

Abyss Enhanced: Burst Strike has a longer range, deals a bigger amount of damage, and its slowing effect is doubled.

  • He regens Rage for each enemy hit of this skill, so make sure to cover the entirety of the minion waves.
  • A regular Burst Strike hits thrice, while the enhanced version hits five times.


Second skill – Spectre Step

Dyrroth dashes in the designated direction. He will stop when he hits a target, dealing physical damage to enemies. When he uses this skill again, he will lock onto a target and release a Fatal Strike, dealing damage and reducing the target’s physical defense for a few seconds.

Abyss Enhanced: Fatal Strike will deal a bigger amount of damage, slow the target by an extra percentage, and reduce their physical defense for several seconds.

  • Max this skill first, as this is his initiation and escape ability.
  • Fatal Strike, the second phase of the skill, deals damage three times.
  • The skill goes into cooldown after a successful hit of Fatal Strike, or a few seconds after failing to cast it.
  • You cannot target minions or the summoned Lord with Fatal Strike.


Ultimate – Abysm Strike

Dyrroth quickly charges and releases a Fatal Strike, dealing huge Physical Damage equal to his base damage, plus a huge percentage of his extra Physical Attack, and a percentage of the enemies’ lost HP along the way. He also slows them for a moment.

  • You can extend the range or change the target direction of this ultimate by using Flicker.
  • The cast animation has a slight delay, so you need to predict the direction where your target is moving, or if using Flicker is necessary.
  • Usually, this is the finishing blow, but you can also use this to deal initial burst damage.

If you’re playing as an EXP laner, Flicker is the most ideal battle spell. It can help you chase down opponents or escape from danger.

You can pair it up with Abysm Strike to extend its range or change its target direction.

If you’re playing as the jungler of the team, Retribution is the obvious choice, as it allows you to clear creeps fast, and helps you secure the Turtle or Lord.

Recommended emblem

To maximize your damage output as Dyrroth, select the Assassin emblem. It gives you adaptive penetration and adaptive attack, along with extra movement speed.

Choose Thrill in the first tier for additional Adaptive Attack, and Master Assassin to get more damage in one versus one situations. This assures that you can dominate your lane.

As for your primary talent, pick Lethal Ignition. It allows you to deal extra damage on multiple hits to enemies which synergizes well with your skill combo.

Purchase items that strengthen Physical Penetration and Physical Attack to maximize the defense reduction effect of Spectre Step.

In the early game, prioritize Blade of the Heptaseas and Sky Piercer for early kill potential. This can allow you to snowball going to the mid-game.

Boost your attack damage even more by acquiring Hunter Strike. This improves your ability to chase and decimate enemies.

Get Sea Halberd to match up well with regeneration-based heroes such as Esmeralda, Uranus or Yu Zhong.

Finish your item build by acquiring Blade of Despair for a huge boost in your attacks.

You can also opt to play more defensively in the late game. Instead of Sea Halberd, purchase Dominance Ice to get more armor, mana regeneration, and anti-heal effects.

In other situations, it is also recommended to get Immortality for late-game insurance as you are at risk of being burst down as you dive into the enemy back lines.

You can go for the same build if you’re playing as a jungler. You just have to equip your Boots with Ice Retribution.

Tips and easy combos to learn

In the early game, close the gap against your opponent using Spectre Step, then hit them with Burst Strike and basic attacks. Make sure to have at least one Rage bar before attacking to utilize the enhanced version of Spectre Step.

When Abysm Strike becomes available, use it after hitting your target with Spectre Step and Burst Strike. Finish them off with Basic Attacks if they manage to survive the ultimate.

Remember, you can use Flicker to extend the range or change the target direction of Abysm Strike in case your target tries to flee. To do this, trigger Abysm Strike first then quickly cast Flicker in your intended direction.

You can also start your attack with Abysm Strike, then take down your target using Spectre Step, Burst Strike, and basic attacks. However, you will not be able to deal the extra damage from their lost HP.
