Loong (Ao Yin) Skills in Honor of Kings
Here is an explanation of all Loong abilities and their descriptions:
| Skills | Description |
Passive Skills: | The elemental dragon souls from Ao Yin’s last two skills are attached to the main and secondary sword fingers. The main sword finger deals (100% physical attack) physical damage. If there are other enemies nearby, the secondary sword finger will attack the target, dealing (30% physical attack)~(60% physical attack) physical damage. Ao Yin adds one layer of Dragon Soul Mark when using skills, up to 3 layers. Ao Yin’s next general attack will consume all of the markers, causing the dragon soul to attack the target. Each time a layer of mark is consumed, another attack is made. Powering up general attacks has different effects depending on the Dragon Soul attributes of the main sword finger. When attacked by multiple Dragon Souls, subsequent Dragon Souls will only do 50%. When switching elements, the Dragon Soul of the same element is retained first. |
| Skills 1 | Ao Yin swings his sword, dealing 300/400/500/600 (+60% bonus physical attack) physical damage and 75/100/125/150 (+15% bonus physical attack) physical damage to up to 3 targets in range (causing 50% splash damage behind the target) and overlaying a layer of Dragon Soul Mark. After using [Thin Sun Palm Fire], a layer of Fire Dragon Soul is attached to the sword finger, and the basic attack deals 15/20/25/30 physical damage. If both sword fingers are attached with Fire Dragon Soul, the damage is increased by 50%. When the Fire Dragon Soul is attached to the main sword finger, the first part of the enhanced basic attack deals 75/100/125/150 (+36% bonus physical attack) physical damage and the last two parts deal 75/100/125/150 (+36% bonus physical attack) physical damage. |
| Skills 2 | Ao Yin swings his sword, dealing 240/320/400/480 (+35% extra physical attack) physical damage to up to 3 targets in range (causing 50% splash damage to the target’s back), and recovering 90/120/150/180 (+60% extra physical attack) health points after hitting. After using [Sky-Rain], a layer of Water Dragon Soul will be attached to the sword finger, and normal attacks will recover 18/24/30/36 health and 0.5% of maximum mana. If both sword fingers are attached with Water Dragon Soul, the recovery will be increased by an additional 50%. If the Water Dragon Soul is attached to the main sword finger, the enhanced normal attack will cause 60/80/100/120 (+35% extra physical attack) physical damage per segment, for a total of 3 segments, and recover 90/120/150/180 health points after hitting. Skill recovery only gets 20% of the recovery for non-hero units, and normal attack and enhanced normal attack recovery only gets 50% of the recovery for non-hero units. |
| Skills 3 | Ao Yin swings his sword, immediately increasing his speed by 30/40/50/60%, which decreases over time, and dealing 240/320/400/480 (+35% extra physical attack) physical damage (causing 50% splash effect behind the target) and knockback to up to 3 targets in range. After using [Step on the Wind], a layer of wind dragon soul is attached to the sword finger, and the person gains 12/16/20/24 speed. If both sword fingers have Wind Dragon Soul attached, the speed increases by an additional 50%. When the Wind Dragon Soul is attached to the main sword finger, the enhanced normal attack deals 60/80/100/120 (+35% extra physical attack) physical damage and knockback for each level, for a total of 3 levels. |
| Ultimate | Ao Yin reveals his true form as a white dragon and soars into the sky. During this time, it cannot attack, ignores terrain, and cannot be targeted. This lasts up to 4.5 seconds (can end early), after which he dives forward (cannot be targeted), dealing 400/600/800 (+80% bonus physical attack) physical damage and 30% slow to enemies on the way, and the same damage and Dragon Fear effect to enemies at the landing point, which lasts for 1 second. Ao Yin then reveals his True Dragon Snow Sword, increasing his attack speed by 20/30/40% and his range by 50 points, which lasts for 10 seconds. During this time, Ao Yin attacks with the True Dragon Snow Sword and his two swords attack up to two additional nearby targets. Targets affected by Dragon Fear will involuntarily move away from Ao Yin. Ao Yin can adjust the elemental dragon souls of his swords at will while in flight. |

How to Counter Loong in Honor of Kings
In Honor of Kings, the effective strategy for dealing with Loong (Ao Yin) is to choose Hou Yi or Huang Zhong.
If the enemy chooses Ao Yin as a shooter, Di Renjie is not the best choice.
Because Loong has a certain consumption and recovery effect, and Di Renjie’s damage is relatively even, which makes it easy for Ao Yin to escape, and even Ao Yin can counterattack.
On the other hand, Hou Yi and Huang Zhong have a clear restraining effect on Ao Yin.
- Hou Yi: Although Hou Yi’s strength has been reduced this season, his win rate is as high as 52.19%, and he can often be seen in the Canyon. Hou Yi’s advantage over Ao Yin is that he can easily deal with her in the early stages. After his ultimate hits Ao Yin, he can work with his teammates to kill Ao Yin. Hou Yi’s general attack can also increase the critical strike rate and critical strike effect, giving him a greater advantage over Ao Yin in the early stages.
- Huang Zhong: After Huang Zhong activates his ultimate, he can consume Ao Yin from a distance, dealing a lot of damage, and at the same time use his second skill’s shield to offset Ao Yin’s damage. Huang Zhong can fight Ao Yin at level 2, and he doesn’t even need to use his ultimate move. He can kill Ao Yin with his normal attack alone. Huang Zhong’s normal attack can also increase his own critical strike rate and critical strike effect, further enhancing his restraining effect on Ao Yin.
- Therefore, if the enemy chooses Ao Yin, it is a wise choice to choose Hou Yi or Huang Zhong to deal with him. They can effectively restrain Ao Yin and increase the win rate.
- Alternatively, you can also choose heroes Arli and Garo to fight Loong.
