Lunox’s skills in Mobile Legends
Passive – Dreamland Twist
Lunox is twisted by the powers of Chaos and Order.
When she uses Power of Order, she gains a percentage of spell vamp for every percentage of magic penetration.
When she uses Power of Chaos, she gains a percentage of magic penetration for every percentage of spell vamp.
- Dreamland Twist allows Lunox to access her two different ultimate abilities. Skillful timing is needed when you transition between her forms.
- Above the hero, an indicator shows the current form in use. For the default skin, a yellow color on the left side signifies the Power of Order.
- Conversely, a purple color on the right indicates the activation of the Power of Chaos.
First skill – Starlight Pulse
Lunox summons a rain of starlight upon nearby enemies, dealing magic damage. The starlight then returns to her, each restoring HP. The HP restored is doubled when hitting enemy heroes.
Grants one stack of Power of Order after use.
- Acquiring Starlight Pulse at level one enables you to aggressively clear the first wave of minions, while restoring your health.
- To maximize the area of effect, position yourself close to the enemy minions in order to hit them all with this spell.
- Getting Starlight Pulse automatically grants access to Chaos Assault, with both abilities sharing an equivalent skill level and cooldown.
Second skill – Chaos Assault
Lunox unleashes Chaos Energy at an enemy, dealing magic damage based on her magic power and a certain percentage of the target’s max HP.
Grants one stack of Power of Chaos after use.
- Chaos Assault boasts greater damage than Starlight Pulse, rendering it a stronger poking tool in the laning phase. However, you need to exercise caution when using it since it does not have any defensive capabilties.
- Make sure to maximize this spell’s cast range to deal poke damage.
- This ability deals extra damage to jungle creeps, making Lunox a viable choice for junglers.
Third skill – Cosmic Fission
When Lunox uses the power of Order and Chaos, she deals magic damage to the targets along the way, and slows them for a few seconds.
- Cosmic Fission is Lunox’s primary crowd control spell, so ensure to hit your target with this before using either of your two ultimate abilities to secure a kill.
- Use the skill indicator when clearing minion waves or jungle camps to maximize its AoE.
Ultimate – Power of Order: Brilliance
Lunox extends the Light Barrier and becomes invincible for several seconds while dealing magic damage over time to nearby enemies.
- In order to activate Brilliance, you need to cast Starlight Pulse to switch your form to Power of Order.
- Since Brilliance grants invincibility, it’s important to have Power of Order most of the time so you are prepared to evade enemy ganks.
- Take note that you can move while Brilliance is active. However, you cannot pass through obstacles during this time.
- Brilliance has a circular AoE, making it ideal for inflicting damage to multiple enemies in team fights.
Ultimate – Power of Chaos: Darkening
Lunox blinks in the designated direction, dealing magic damage to nearby enemies, and slowing them for several seconds.
For the next few seconds, she enhances her Power of Chaos to greatly reduce the cooldown of Chaos Assault.
- To activate Darkening, you have to cast Chaos Assault, switching your form to Power of Chaos.
- Darkening allows you to repeatedly use Chaos Assault, making it a great spell for taking a solo kill or ganking an enemy.
- You have the option to dash toward your adversary, dealing damage and slowing them down. However, if they possess a potent crowd control ability, it’s advisable to maintain distance and rely on Chaos Assault to eliminate them instead.
- You can use Darkening together with Flicker to extend its cast range, surprising your target.
A comprehensive guide on how to play Lunox in Mobile Legends
Recommended battle spell
Flicker is the most optimal battle spell when playing Lunox, providing you with additional mobility other than Power of Chaos: Darkening.
Use this to initiate your assault, reposition during team fights, or get out of dangerous situations.
Moreover, you can employ Flicker to extend the range of Darkening, enabling you to launch a surprise attack against your opponent.
Alternatively, select Retribution if you’re playing as jungle Lunox. This allows you to efficiently clear jungle camps.
Additionally, it helps you secure crucial objectives for your team, such as the Lord and Turtle.
Recommended emblem
Go with the Mage Emblem to acquire substantial amounts of magic power, magic penetration, and cooldown reduction.
If you want to obtain adaptive penetration, adaptive attack, and movement speed, choose the Assassin Emblem instead.
In terms of standard talents, take Rupture to get extra adaptive penetration, and Weapons Master to gain additional magic power from equipment and emblem. These talents empower you to deal huge damage, especially in the latter stages of the game.
However, if you’re playing as a jungler, replace Weapons Master with Seasoned Hunter, which allows you to deal increased damage against the Lord, Turtle, and jungle creeps.
For your core talent, pick Lethal Ignition. This enables you to inflict extra adaptive damage on your target when you continuously hit them with your skills.
Lunox best build
Start with Arcane Boots to gain magic penetration, then get Enchanted Talisman, which addresses Lunox’s heavy mana consumption while providing cooldown reduction.
Proceed to build items that significantly increase your magic power and penetration, such as Genius Wand, Divine Glaive, Holy Crystal, and Blood Wings.
These items empower you to unleash massive amounts of damage even against tanky enemies.
If you need to improve your survivability, particularly in the late game, opt for Immortality or Winter Truncheon as your final item.
The best build of Lunox in Mobile Legends
- Arcane Boots (select Ice Retribution if you’re a jungler)
- Enchanted Talisman
- Genius Wand
- Holy Crystal
- Divine Glaive
- Blood Wings
Tips and easy combos to learn
During the laning phase, you can get the advantage in trading attacks with your opponent by using Starlight Pulse, which restores an amount of your health.
Use Cosmic Fission with Starlight Pulse or Chaos Assault to inflict substantial damage to your adversary, pressuring them out of the lane.
Once you acquire your ultimate, you can unleash different combos depending on your situation.
If you’re going for a solo kill or ganking a lone enemy, make sure you have a charge of Power of Chaos to have Darkening available.
Close in on your target with Darkening, then further slow them down using Cosmic Fission. Repeatedly hit them with Chaos Assault.
After eliminating your target, cast Starlight Pulse, and prepare to use Brilliance for a safe retreat.
If you’re going up against multiple opponents, ensure you have a charge of Power of Order, setting your ultimate to Brilliance.
Start with Cosmic Fission, and follow up with Brilliance. Cast Chaos Assault to switch to Darkening, then disengage or continue your assault against remaining foes.
