Alongside the release of a new hero in Augran, Honor of Kings also celebrated reaching 50 million downloads.
Honor of Kings has released a new hero, Augran the Seer of The Misty Marshes, for free to players worldwide as the game also celebrated reaching 50 million downloads.
Augran is a fighter who can summon the spirits of his enemies to attack opponents and ignore terrains to travel swiftly to his teammates. Players can claim him for free from 27 to 28 July 2024.
Here’s a breakdown of Augran’s skills:
Passive - Soul Resonance
Augran's Basic Attacks resonate and link with the souls of his enemies, dealing physical damage each time. If the enemies cannot shake off the soul chain, the damage frequency increases until it ends and deals magical damage. The damage dealt by the soul chain when it begins and ends have a 100% on-hit effect, and the rest have some on-hit effect.
Skill 1: Path of Passing
Augran creates a path and deals magical damage to targets hit. The path creation speeds up when it hits a wall or the Life-Death Border, then deals additional magical damage when it hits more enemies. While on the path, he ignores terrain and gains a Movement Speed bonus.
When the path hits a wall for the first time, a Bridge of Passing is created, and he gains a large Movement Speed bonus while on it, slowing nearby enemies. Using the skill again or when the timer runs out, he will recall his weapon, and he enters the Seer state, killing targets with low Health instantly.
Skill 2: Death's Precipice
Augran swings his weapon, dealing physical damage and slowing enemies ahead for a period of time. He creates a Life-Death Border that marks enemies who touch it and deals additional damage to enemies that touch the branches on the Border.
After casting the skill, he enhanced the next Basic Attack to deal with additional damage and restore his health. If marked targets are within the attack range, the soul chain deals additional damage and restores his Health for each marked target nearby.
Ultimate: Conductor of Souls
Augran unleashes his full power and descends from the sky, dealing physical damage and knocking back nearby enemies. If an enemy hero is hit, Augran restores some Health and creates a spirit to assist him. Upon landing, he enters Seer state and kills enemies at low Health with his Basic Attacks.
His healing increases for each enemy hero hit (up to 100%). The spirit inherits some of his physical damage and only performs Basic Attacks but has a faster Movement Speed and Attack Speed bonus.
Aside from announcing the release of Augran, Honor of Kings also announced the addition of Elite Player Privileges.
Players who have earned Grandmaster rank and are part of the Top 100 national leaderboard or the Top 10 mastered Heroes in the country will gain additional experience for all Heroes and free experience points to their Arcana, including skin privileges made available during Season 6.
