Understanding Ishmael's Abilities
Before diving into strategies, it's crucial to understand Ishmael's unique abilities and how they can be maximized:
1. First Skill - Awakening
Upon activating his awakening ability, Ishmael assumes a demonic form that increases his critical hit chance and attack speed. However, it's important to note that this form gradually consumes his energy and will dissipate when it reaches zero.
Critical Hit Chance Increase: Max(1200) - (10 * Skill Level)
Attack Speed Increase: 200%
Keywords: Buff
2. Second Skill - Mirage
This skill allows Ishmael to dodge physical attacks for 4 seconds. However, the dodge chance is reduced if the target's level is higher than the skill level.
Dodge Chance: Max(120 = Skill Level)
Skill Cooldown: 12 seconds
3. Third Skill - Dark Craft
This passive skill increases Ishmael's vampirism, allowing him to recover more life when dealing damage to enemies.
Vampirism: Max(120) - (Skill Level + 20)
4. Fourth Skill - Storm Blades
Every 4th hit, Ishmael has the chance to stun the opponent for 1.0 second. However, the stun chance is reduced if the target's level is higher than the skill level.
Stun Chance: Max(80 = Skill Level + 40)
Keywords: Stun
Strategies for Using Ishmael
1. Maximizing Awakening
Ishmael's awakening ability is his primary source of damage and impact potential. When using it, prioritize high-value targets such as enemy tanks or heroes that deal significant damage to your team.
2. Using Mirage Strategically
Mirage is crucial for Ishmael's survival, especially against teams relying on physical attacks. Use it at key moments, such as when Ishmael is about to be the target of concentrated attacks.
3. Leveraging Vampirism
The passive ability of Dark Craft increases Ishmael's vampirism, allowing him to heal while dealing damage to enemies. This is especially useful in prolonged battles where endurance is crucial.
4. Mastering Storm Blades
Storm Blades can be a surprise element in combat, interrupting enemy attacks and providing a tactical advantage.
Strategic Team Combinations
In addition to understanding Ishmael's individual abilities, it's essential to consider how he fits into a larger team. Here are some strategic combinations that can enhance Ishmael's performance:
With Astrid and Lucas: Astrid and Lucas can provide additional protection to Ishmael, allowing him to focus on dealing damage while his allies absorb enemy attacks.
With Dante: Combining Ishmael with Dante can create a highly offensive team capable of dealing rapid and massive damage to enemies.
Talisman of Ishmael
With the talisman, Ishmael receives an increase in his Agility statistic, receiving more Physical Attack and Armor. At the maximum level, he will increase his physical attack by +18,000 points, and another 2,000 points of armor, receiving another 20170 points of protection against armor penetration, stopping the physical damage to enemies, so he will become quite a tank.
With the physical attack bonus from the talisman, Ishmael will be able to do more critical physical damage to enemies and will certainly be difficult to stop if your team doesn't have a strong tank like Ziri, for example.
