Ixia Abilities in Mobile Legends
Here is an overview of Ixia’s abilities in Mobile Legends;
Passive - Arc Siphon
Ixia's Basic Attacks and Skills apply a stack of Arc Charge to enemies on hit. When Ixia performs a Basic Attack on an enemy with two stacks of Arc Charge, it will consume the stacks and activate Arc Siphon, dealing Physical Damage and reducing the target's Movement Speed by 40% for 1.5s.
If the target is a hero, Ixia recovers HP equal to the damage dealt. Arc Siphon can be used on all enemy heroes in front of Ixia that are within her Basic Attack range.
Skill 1 - Dual Arc
Ixia fires 2 Arclight beams in the target direction, dealing Physical Damage to enemies in a rectangular area. Upon hitting an enemy hero, Ixia gains 40% Movement Speed for 3s. Enemies hit by both beams will take double damage.
Skill 2 - Arc Helix
Ixia launches a canister of Arc energy in the target direction, pulling enemies to the center line after a short delay and dealing Physical Damage.
Skill 3 - Arclight Barrage
Passive: Ixia gradually gains Movement Speed when not in combat, but loses the effect upon entering combat.
Active: Ixia disassembles her cannons into 6 smaller weapons and enters the Barrage state for 5s. In this state, Ixia's skills gain additional range but can only be used within the fan-shaped area. Her Basic Attacks can hit up to 6 enemy units that prioritize enemy heroes. Within the duration, Arc Siphon also deals 80 extra damage.
