Phoveus Mobile Legends Build – Beginner’s Guide

Phoveus is a fighter hero who specializes in chasing and control. He is extremely good against heroes who uses dash or blink skills as it allows him to blink over them and it even reduces Phoveus’ skill cooldowns and charge. Together with his weapon, Astaros, he would relentlessly punish heroes who frequently uses blink.

Disclaimer: I’m just a casual gamer and not a pro. I just want to share with you things that works very well for me when playing this hero.

Skills

Passive / Demonic Intuition: Phoveus’ weapon, Astaros, holds mysterious powers and is exceptionally sensitive to fast moving prey. When an enemy hero uses blink or charge skills within 8 yards of Astaros, it reduces all of Phoveus’ skill cooldowns or charge times by 1 second.

Skill 1 / Malefic Terror: Phoveus smashes the ground and unleashes Astaros Dread, dealing magic damage to the target. Upon hitting an enemy hero, Phoveus receives a shield as well as a 25% movement speed boost for 3 second. If an enemy hero, creep or Phoveus himself touches Astaros Dread, it will spread and deal extra damage. This skill gains 1 charge every 8.5 seconds, up to 3 charges and deals 150% damage to minions.

Skill 2 / Astaros Eye: Phoveus summons forth Astaros eye dealing magic damage. After 1 second, Astaros Eye starts shrinking and pulling all enemies on it into into center, dealing magic damage.

Skill 3 / Demonic Force: Astaros keeps a watchful gaze over an area of 8 yards around Phoveus. If it sees an enemy hero using blink or dash sills, it will be activated and cast a mark upon them for 3 seconds. During this time, Phoveus can rapidly blink to their location to deliver a fierce blow, dealing magic damage to the target and its vicinity and gaining a shield.

Phoveus can used this skill repeatedly at the cost of mana for 12 seconds before entering cooldown as long as the required conditions are met.
