Hero Skill !

Frostmoon Shield

Frostmoon Shield

Esmeralda gains 400( +150% Total Magic Power) Shield and 40% Movement Speed which rapidly decays over its duration for 4s. Meanwhile, she gradually transforms the shields of her nearby enemies into her own shield, capped at 50% of her Max HP.

This skill will last for a while. Since Frostmoon causes damage and also provides shields for enemies, it will deal damage to the enemies continuously. Esmeralda transforms shield from enemies to help herself survive. This skill is the key for Esmeralda to take huge amounts of damage.

Stardust Dance

Stardust Dance

Esmeralda waves Stardust and Frostmoon, dealing 240( +60% Total Physical Attack) (Physical Damage) and 300( +120% Total Magic Power) (Magic Damage) to nearby enemies. Each time she deals damage to a hero, the cooldown of (Frostmoon Shield) is reduced by 1.5s (damaging non-hero units grants a 0.5s reduction) and the enemy's Movement Speed is reduced by 10% for 1.5s.

This is her main damage dealing skill, causing a lot of damage while also reducing the cooldown of Frostmoon Shield. Cast Stardust Dance after Frostmoon Shield and it would be easier to survive.

Falling Starmoon

Falling Starmoon

Esmeralda coheres the power of Astrospace into her two weapons - Stardust and Frostmoon. The longer this skill is channeled, the longer the cast range. (Use Again): Esmeralda casts Stardust at the target location, dealing 350( +90% Total Physical Attack) (Physical Damage), and then blinks to the target location and casts Frostmoon, dealing 350( +140% Total Magic Power) (Magic Damage) and immobilizing enemies in the area for 1s.

This skill provides the most important ability to get enrolled in battles, where it will also cause a temporary effect of control on enemies. Choosing the right time to take moves can change the final outcome of a teamfight.

Starmoon Casket

Starmoon Casket

Esmeralda manipulates Stardust and Frostmoon: Stardust deals Physical Damage while Frostmoon deals Magic Damage and gives the target a shield equal to 135% of Frostmoon's damage dealt. Each Basic Attack deals ( +100% Total Physical Attack) (Physical Damage) and 100( +75% Total Magic Power) (Magic Damage). The damage dealt by Esmeralda ignores all shield effects and gradually converts her shield into HP.

With Passive, Esmeralda deals more damage than any other hero. However, it also provides her enemies with shield effects. Relying on Frostmoon to quickly transform the enemy's shield to herself is the key point of using Esmeralda.
