Ao Kuang’s Ability
Passive: Dragon King’s Sword
Ao Kuang receives a stack of Dragon King’s Sword every ten seconds. His subsequent non-ultimate ability, which damages an enemy god and heals Ao Kuang, has a shorter cooldown when he has a stack available. Dragon King’s Sword is completely charged after killing an enemy deity using King of the Eastern Seas.
Skill 1: Water Illusion
A liquid version of Ao Kuang is left behind as he teleports into stealth. Until he assaults or sustains damage, he stays in stealth for 5 seconds. Ao Kuang can use this power once more to explode the watery form and harm nearby opponents.
Skill 2: Dragon Call
Six dragons are called to Ao Kuang’s side. Ao Kuang will use a dragon to attack the victim and deliver more damage for each successful Basic Attack. This power expires after all dragons have been utilized, or after 10 seconds. Ao Kuang can use this power once more to launch all surviving dragons into a close-ranged attack. The first adversary that the dragons hit suffers damage and is slowed.
Skill 3: Wild Storm
All of his adversaries in front of him are injured as Ao Kuang releases a storm of lightning from his sword. A Dragon from Dragon’s Call will be summoned in response to this attack and deliver damage to nearby targets.
Ultimate: King of the Eastern Seas
One victim is grabbed by Ao Kuang, who injures them and throws them into the air. Ao Kuang will also exhibit his real form, changing into an aerial Dragon, and execute the victim, regaining Health, if the target falls below a Health threshold. Ao Kuang chooses a new landing spot after morphing, doing damage to foes within 20 units.
