The fearless gifted physician, Faramis, is back with a vengeance in Mobile Legends after undergoing a much-deserved hero revamp. Faramis was tagged as the underwhelming hero with measly stats on his win rate and popularity ranking. Besides the fact that he was left unbuffed during the past seasons, the Soul Binder also did not receive a new skin for three consecutive years since being introduced. These factors somehow contributed to players not choosing him during ranked games.

When Project Next – Rise Necrokeep was announced, Faramis mains finally fulfilled their long-time wish! Brought by the recent updates and corresponding buffs, Faramis ascended to the top of popularity ratings and is deemed one of the best rank support heroes in the current meta. Here is a complete guide to help you play a formidable Faramis in battle.

How to win in MLBB using Faramis

Faramis has tank properties to initiate battle fig; try to take advantage of this but make sure to collect souls to help you when you resurrect.
Faramis primarily a support hero, so try to stay with your ally most of the time and cast your ultimate when they are already low HP to save them from attacks and ambush.
Align your team’s damage dealer to coordinate during teamfights and when to attack and push.
When you push and destroy turrets, make sure to use Faramis’ shadow for an easy escape and to avoid getting struck by an enemy in the turret’s radius that can cause severe damage.

Faramis Skills/ Abilities

Vicious Retrieval (Passive)

Faramis’ passive skill enables him to leave soul fragments of the opponents where they were killed. Once Faramis absorbs this soul fragment, he gets to restore his HP and reduce respawn by 2 seconds. A maximum of 40 stacks enables him to restore his HP by 100.

Shadow Stampede (Skill 1)

Faramis gets an additional defense attribute when his Shadow Stampede is activated and inflicts Magic Damage, leaving a Nether Mark to an enemy hit. Enemies with a Nether Mark will be pulled close to Faramis, allowing him to go for an ambush once the Shadow Stampede is activated.

Ghost Bursters (Skill 2)

Faramis gathers Nether energy in a fan-shaped area ahead, dealing 330 – 480 Magic Damage to enemies. The energy will then split and bounce to nearby enemies, dealing 200 – 300 Magic Damage. Ghost Bursters’ split effect can be an effective crowd control as it is triggered when two or more enemies are nearby, dealing significant damage.

Cult Altar (Ult)

Faramis’ Cult Altar is like cheating death as it transforms the surrounding area during a clash into the Nether Realm, restoring HP and extra movement speed to teammates equal to his Magic Power. When the extra HP is depleted, the hero will enter a brief Resurrection state, becoming unable to move or attack but immune to damage.

Faramis skill combo and upgrade order

Prioritize unlocking Skill 2 first (Ghost Bursters) as it has a dual purpose: to stack his passive skill – Vicious Retrieval and to enhance his main source of power.

Lastly, unlock Faramis’ Ultimate (Cult Altar) whenever available.

Does Faramis deserve a new skin?

Back when Faramis and Vale only had a basic skin each, the Soul Binder Faramis had already passed his fellow MLBB veteran in terms of having no new skin for the longest time. Die-hard fans of Faramis have been waiting for when he will get the spotlight for a new look, given his tremendous support/mage reliability in-game. Faramis ly a good pick for competitive rank games, and his redemption tour will not be complete without a creative and well-deserved new skin to highlight his dominance.
