MLBB Phoveus Hero Guide-Blog-1280x720

Phoveus, a high-impact Fighter in Mobile Legends: Bang Bang, has undergone a significant overhaul, and we already see a meta shift with his new kit. This revamped version brings a fun, explosive playstyle that lets players smash anything in their path, with straightforward win conditions that make him an ideal pick for newcomers and longtime MLBB players.  

In this guide, we’ll explore Phoveus’s new abilities and how they’ve transformed him into a force to be reckoned with. We’ll also break down the best builds to maximize his potential and share tips on the optimal items, Emblem setup, and Battle Spell choices. Stick around!

Hero Background

Once a brave Moniyan soldier from the Lantis Mountains, Phoveus led a unit of fourteen hardened warriors known for their daring tactics against the Abyss. During a disastrous offensive and to save more lives, he made a fateful decision to invoke the power of the Evil God. This act, while heroic, branded him a sinner in the eyes of the empire.

Facing execution, Phoveus outsmarted the Evil God by binding both their souls to a stone monolith. This sacrifice earned him the title “Chains of Sin” and forever changed his destiny in the Land of Dawn.

Role in the Game

This Fighter boasts a fun and explosive playstyle that focuses on his Passive, Demonic Force, which allows him to spam his other damage-dealing abilities. His weapon, Astaros, holds mysterious powers and is exceptionally sensitive to fast-moving prey. This unique characteristic makes him an ideal counter-pick to heroes who rely on blink or charge skills, as they help reduce his cooldowns, further sharpening his edge on the battlefield.

How to win with Phoveus

Phoveus’ Abilities

Phoveus’ Passive enables him to charge at enemies with his next Basic Attack, knocking them back and dealing extra Magic Damage based on 4% of the enemy’s Max HP. This also grants him a shield equal to 8% of his Max HP. Additionally, whenever an enemy hero blinks, dashes, or is displaced nearby, Demonic Force’s cooldown reduces by 20%, while his other skills’ cooldowns decrease by 0.5 seconds.

This skill allows Phoveus to slam his monolith into the ground, dealing Physical Damage to nearby enemies and slowing them by 70% for 0.5 seconds. If it hits an enemy, the next Demonic Impact marks them with a Sinner’s Mark, which implodes after a short delay, dealing additional Magic Damage.

Phoveus releases his demonic power in a chosen direction, knocking enemies airborne and dragging them along. This skill inflicts Magic Damage based on his Extra Physical Attack.

Phoveus’ Ultimate allows him to leap into the air and smash down on enemies marked with Sinner’s Mark, dealing Physical Damage and recovering HP based on 6% of his Max HP. This skill has no cooldown, making it a potent tool for chasing down foes and sustaining in battles.

Best Build for Phoveus

His high burst damage, mobility, and low cooldowns make Nolan a dangerous jungler. Thus, we’ll choose emblems, battle spells, and items that aid him in his jungling phase to ensure he snowballs into an effective assassin in the late game.

Best Emblem

To maximize Phoveus’ impact as a Fighter, players should opt for the Fighter Emblem. This emblem build offers a balanced mix of offensive and defensive stats, perfect for his explosive playstyle.

  • Thrill – Increased Adaptive Attack.
  • Festival of Blood – Increased Spell Vamp for each kill or assist.
  • Brave Smite – Recovers 5% Max HP each time Phoveus deals damage.

Best Battle Spell

It’s hard not to be trigger-happy with Phoveus’ all-gas-no-breaks kit, and this often puts him in risky situations. This makes Flicker an ideal choice, providing him with an escape tool and allowing him to make more aggressive plays. Vengeance is another excellent option, especially when faced against high Burst damage heroes.

Best Item Build

For the item build, it’s best to get a good balance of offensive and defensive stats:

 

  • War Axe
  • Brute Force Breastplate
  • Queen’s Wings
  • Athena’s Shield
  • Immortality
  • Warrior Boots

 

Prioritizing War Axe is a must as it increases his overall damage and sustainability in the early game with its unique passive that fits perfectly with his skill-focused playstyle. Brute Force Breastplate transforms him into a bulldozing tank with +600 HP and +23 Physical Defense. When facing a Magic-heavy team, you can also replace Warrior Boots with Tough Boots and pick an Ice Queen Wand for high-mobility enemy heroes.

Conclusion

The revamped Phoveus’ head-on playstyle is fun, especially if you’re a fan of MLBB heroes who overcome their foes with sheer brute force. Most kits consider Blinks and dashes a must-have, meaning Demonic Force will always do him wonders. However, its cooldown reduction mechanic can be a double-edged sword, as it will force you to adapt slightly different timings on each game, preventing you from developing muscle memory. Phoveus is one of the strongest units in the current meta, and you should try him out!
