Aphelios

Marksman

Abilities
The Hitman and the SeerPC
Passive - The Hitman and the Seer

Innate: Aphelios has access to an arsenal of 5 Moonstone Weapons, created by his sister Alune. He equips two weapons at any one time, one as his main weapon and one as his off-hand. Each weapon has a unique basic attack and effect.

Aphelios begins the game with Calibrum as his main weapon and Severum in his off-hand, with Gravitum, Infernum, and Crescendum queued in reserve. His weapons are initially in this order, but they can be rearranged based on their usage.

Innate - Moonlight: Weapons granted to Aphelios have 50 Moonlight for ammunition, which is consumed upon basic attacking on-attack and upon casting his primary abilities. Any of his abilities that automatically cause him to attack during their effect will not consume additional Moonlight. Once his main weapon's Moonlight is exhausted, it is moved to the end of the reserve queue; Alune then assembles his next available weapon from the reserve over 1 second, placing its primary ability on a 1.5 -second cooldown from the start of the assembly. Aphelios cannot cast Phase during the assembly.

Innate - Weapon Master: Aphelios cannot improve his abilities via skill points. He starts the game with Phase and automatically gains access to his primary abilities at level 2 and his ultimate ability, Moonlight Vigil, at level 6. Moonlight Vigil improves automatically at levels 11 and 16. Aphelios may spend his skill points to gain bonus attack damage, bonus attack speed or lethality instead.

CD: 10 - 8 (based on level)
Cast Time: 0.4
Range: 1450

OnslaughtPC
Q - Onslaught
Cost: 10 Moonlight + 60 Mana
CD: 10 - 8 (based on level)
Cast Time: None
Effect Radius: 550

Active: Aphelios enters an onslaught for 1.75 seconds, gaining 25% (+ 10% per 100 AP) bonus movement speed and automatically performing up to 6 (+ 2 per 100% bonus attack speed) attacks over the duration against the nearest sight enemy, prioritizing enemy champions.

Attacks alternate between Severum and his current off-hand weapon, each dealing 19% - 40% (based on level) AD physical damage, affected by critical strike modifiers, and applying on-hit effects, with on-hit damage reduced to 25% effectiveness. Aphelios cannot perform attacks while affected by disarming crowd control or a lockout that disables basic attacks.

Aphelios cannot cast Phase nor Moonlight Vigil during Onslaught, but he is still able to move.

CD: 12 - 10 (based on level)
Cast Time: 0.3
Effect Radius: Global

Gravitum - Active: Aphelios expunges all enemies with Gravitum's slow debuff, dealing 50 - 140 (based on level) (+ 32% - 50% (based on level) bonus AD) (+ 70% AP) magic damage and root them for 1 second.

An enemy affected by Gravitum, or an in-flight Gravitum projectile, is required to cast this ability. In-flight projectiles will be empowered to apply Binding Eclipse's effects to their targets.

CD: 9 - 6 (based on level)

After 0.25 seconds, Aphelios then fires a volley of attacks at each locked-on target from his current off-hand weapon, dealing 100% AD physical damage and applying on-hit effects. The damage is affected by critical strike modifiers. There is no range limit for locked-on targets.

SentryPC
Q - Sentry
Cost: 10 Moonlight + 60 Mana
CD: 9 - 6 (based on level)
Cast Time: 0.25
Range: 475

Active: Aphelios deploys a lunar sentry at the target location that arms after 0.35 seconds, lasting for up to 20 seconds, during which it is inactive and untargetable. The sentry activates if an enemy is within range of it, reducing its duration to 4 seconds and becoming targetable. Sentries have 6 health and take 3 damage per ranged basic attack and 4 damage per hit by abilities. Turret attacks destroy sentries instantly.

The sentry grants sight of its surroundings and autonomously attacks the nearest visible enemy in range with a replica of Aphelios' current off-hand weapon, dealing 35 - 125 (based on level) (+ 30% - 42% (based on level) bonus AD) (+ 50% AP) physical damage per hit.

Cast Time: 0.6
Range: 1300
Effect Radius: 300

Active: Aphelios casts forth a lunar spotlight in the target direction that briefly grants sight of the area along its path and stops upon illuminating an enemy champion. Alune smites the area centered on the illuminated target, dealing 125 / 175 / 225 (+ 20% bonus AD) (+ 100% AP) physical damage to enemy champions struck and locking-on to each target hit, as well as granting sight of the area for 2 seconds.

After 0.3 seconds of the illumination, attacks based on Aphelios' current main weapon will launch from the sky against each locked-on target, dealing 100% AD physical damage and applying on-hit effects. These attacks can critically strike for 100 to 130 damage. There is no range limit for locked-on targets. Calibrum Applies an empowered mark that deals 50 / 80 / 110 bonus physical damage per mark consumed. Severum Heals Aphelios for 250 / 350 / 450 if at least one enemy champion is hit. Gravitum Increases the initial slow to 99% and empowers Binding Eclipse to root targets affected by the enhanced slow for 1.35 seconds. Infernum The initial blast deals 50 / 100 / 150 (+ 25% bonus AD) bonus physical damage. The attack instead deals 110% AD physical damage against locked-on targets, and causes an explosion of bolts in a 400-radius circle that deals 74.25 to 99 for 2% AD physical damage to targets hit.

Crescendum Generates 5 additional spectral Chakrams that return to Aphelios from the first enemy champion hit, for a total of 6, on top of those from other targets hit.

CalibrumPC
A - CalibrumWatch
Cost: 1 Moonlight per attack

Aphelios gains 100 bonus attack range while Calibrum is his main weapon. Enemies damaged by Calibrum through an ability are marked for 4.5 seconds, during which they are standard sight. Aphelios' next basic attack against a marked target uses the current off-hand weapon and has 1800 range, increased missile speed, and a brief cast time that lasts shorter based on Aphelios' proximity to the target.

The empowered attack will consume the marks from all targets, dealing 15 (+ 10% bonus AD) bonus physical damage to the main target for each mark consumed. If Calibrum is the current off-hand weapon, the main weapon is used for the attack instead.

SeverumPC
A - SeverumWatch
Cost: 1 Moonlight per attack

Basic attacks with Severum are projectile and have an uncancellable windup. Severum's attacks heal Aphelios for 2 to 7.1% of the post-mitigation damage dealt, increased to 5 to 17.75% for attacks from abilities.

Healing from Severum in excess of Aphelios' maximum health is converted into a shield for an amount of up to 10 / then (+ 6% maximum health) , lingering for up to 30 seconds.

GravitumPC
A - GravitumWatch
Cost: 1 Moonlight per attack

Basic attacks with Gravitum slow enemies by 30% for 2.5 seconds, decaying to 10% after 0.7 seconds.

InfernumPC
A - InfernumWatch
Cost: 1 Moonlight per attack

Basic attacks with Infernum shoot a fire bolt that upon arrival splits into a cone of 4 lesser bolts behind the target, dealing damage to enemies they pass through. The fire bolt deals 110% AD physical damage to the primary target. Secondary targets hit by any bolt are dealt 75 / 100% of the triggering attack's damage, reduced to 23 / 30% against minions.

Critical strike instead spray 6 missiles in a 50% wider cone. Secondary targets hit count as being critical strike.

CrescendumPC
A - CrescendumWatch
Cost: 1 Moonlight per attack

Basic attacks with Crescendum hurl the blade at the target, which lingers for 0.25 seconds before homing back to Aphelios. He is unable to declare basic attacks until he retrieves Crescendum, but the attack timer is reset once caught.

Whenever Aphelios casts an ability that would require him to throw Crescendum, he instead fires a spectral Chakram at the target that similarly returns to him. Aphelios accumulates the Chakrams he catches, up to 20, which last for 5 seconds or until Crescendum is depleted of Moonlight. Chakram duration is refreshed when Aphelios catches a new one or attacks a champion with Crescendum.

Attacks with Crescendum are empowered to deal 0 / then + 15 / then + 13.5 / then + 12 / then + 10.5 / then + 9 / then + 7.5 / then + 6 / then AD bonus physical damage and have a lower attack windup of 10.67%, further decreased to 6.67% when critically strike. The bonus damage from Chakrams is affected by critical strike modifiers.

Patch 26.4nerf

  • Bonus attack damage reduced to 4/8/12/16/20/24 from 5/10/15/20/25/30.

Aphelios has a lot of intricacies and some of his abilities try to behave exactly like basic attacks. With that in mind, we're converting Severum's active to total attack damage in line with similar abilities and generally lowering the bonus AD ratios of several abilities that already scale well due to firing off basic attacks that can crit as part of their cast.
