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.
- Bonus Attack Damage
- 4 / 8 / 12 / 16 / 20 / 24
- Bonus Attack Speed
- 9 / 18 / 27 / 36 / 45 / 54%
- Lethality
- 4.5 / 9 / 13.5 / 18 / 22.5 / 27
Notes (7)
- The attack damage, attack speed and lethality within Aphelios' unique rank-up menu in the HUD correspond to the Q, W, E ability rank-up hotkeys, respectively, for the purposes of assigning skill points via keyboard.
- Due to Aphelios lacking a fourth rankup option (R), his point assigment does not follow the same rules as other champions.
- For example, the earliest level that an individual statistic can attain rank 6 is level 9, by assigning points at levels 1 / 2 / 3 / 5 / 7 / 9.
- An ammunition counter will appear to the right side of the screen when Aphelios' main weapon has 10 or less Moonlight.
- While at lower than 10 Moonlight, casting his primary abilities will not spend additional Moonlight but instead consume all the remaining points.
- Runaan's Hurricane's Wind's Fury will not consume additional Moonlight when firing its bolts.
- The in-game tooltip will reflect the current order of weapons.
Map-specific differences (2)
- Weapon ammunition changed to 30.
- Will not spend ammunition during the Shop Phase.
