What are the best builds for Irithel?
Irithel is a very good marksman hero for beginners. Most new Mobile Legend players look for heroes that are easy to master yet powerful. With that, Irithel is the best option for them. This hero specialized in reo and burst, allowing users to be able to penetrate deeply against the enemy formation.
If you are aiming to master this hero, then you should know how to use it with the proper equipment. In Mobile Legends, there are a lot of attack and defense items. If you are still new to this, then it might be difficult to mix and match items. That is why we created a comprehensive guide you can use to find out the best builds for Irithel.
Irithel Strengths
- Has burst damage- If a marksman hero has burst damage, that means that they can deal damage in such a short amount of time. This is Irithel’s strength because this leads her to succeed in a clutch game.
- Great kiting- With kiting, Irithel can deal damage while being positioned from a safe distance.
- Mobility- Irithel can actually attack while moving. Even though she lacks in movement speed, this ability enables her to have an advantage over other heroes.
Irithel Weaknesses
- Squishy- As a marksman, it is a given fact that Irithel is squishy. So this can be her weakness.
- Skill dependent- Irithel’s basic attack is not that powerful against fighters and tanks. So she is very dependent on her skills. This requires you to be knowledgeable in what items complement her skills.
- Weak in the early game- It takes time before Irithel can unleash her power. That is because she is weak in the early game. So you really need to have a tank that can support you.
3. Sustained DPS
Secure Irithel's sustenance with these items.
It was said that Irithel could be squishy. One way to solve this problem is to fuel her with sustained DPS items. With this, Irithel will last longer on the battlefield and will be able to contribute more to the offense of the team.
Use This Build If…
- You want your hero to be sustained all throughout - Again, this build is full of items that focus more on sustaining your hero against attacks from enemies. So if that is your objective, use this build.
- You are one of the main damage dealers - Using sustained DPS build will enable you to stay longer in the field, thus allowing you to deal more damage against enemies.
- Your enemies are bulky- With thick enemies, it might become too hard for you to knock them down. Thus, sustained DPS build will help you stay long enough to scrape them.
Skills
With this build, you can choose to focus more on giving Irithel the offensive advantage in the early game by following this sequence of leveling her up.
- Level One: First Skill - (Strafe)
- Level Two: Second Skill - (Force of the Queen)
- Level Three: First Skill - (Strafe)
- Level Four: Ultimate Skill - (Heavy Crossbow)
Items:
1. Windtalker: Windtalker is useful for marksman heroes like Irithel since this is not very expensive and can be bought in the early game. This item will enable the hero to gain additional damage and critical chance.
2. Swift Boots (710): Swift boots are extremely important to Irithel since she can be slow in the early part.
3. Scarlet Phantom (2020): Scarlet Phantom is the next item that you should buy if you use Irithel. This item adds another percentage to the damage of Irithel and more critical damage, which allows her to fight against bulky enemies.
4. Berserker’s Fury (2250): This item gives Irithel a faster attack speed and insane damage. More than that, this also allows Irithel to deal critical hits and true damage.
5. Malefic Roar (2060): Irithel is good for this since this will increase her critical damage as she attacks from a distance.
6. Immortality (2250): This is basically the glory of the sustained DPS build. The immortality item will enable Irithel to have a safety net in her defense.
Emblem
The marksman emblem is the most suitable emblem for Irithel for this build.
Marksman Emblem
- Quantum Charge - Enhances Movement Speed and regenerates HP.
- Weakness Finder - Decreases the movement and attack speed of the opponent.
- Swift - Improves Attack Speed.
- Agility - Enhances Movement Speed.
- Greed - Adds Physical Life Steal.
- Bravery - Increases Physical Attack damage
Battle Spells
Irithel works well with Inspire spell. Since she is skill dependent, using the Inspire spell will allow her to cast as many skill attacks as possible.
2. Jungle
Become the most powerful jungler with this build.
The jungle build is only utilized by heroes that take on the jungler role in the team. It is difficult if two team members will take on the jungle roles because you will not be able to maximize your talent and abilities. Jungle heroes are basically the lifeblood and torchbearer of the team.
Use This Build If…
- You have the courage to carry the team - If you are not willing to carry your team, then do not use this build.
- You really know how to use Irithel - To become an effective jungler, you should know how to use your hero well.
- You want to take on the core role - Again, this build is only for junglers, given that this includes items that only work for them. So if you are not the core, do not use this.
Items:
1. Windtalker (1820): Windtalker is best for the attack speed and critical hits of Irithel. When used, her damage will increase simultaneously with her attack speed.
2. Ice Hunter’s Swift Boots (710): Jungler heroes have a different set of swift boots for them. That is why this role is extremely important, as they are really differentiated from the rest of the team.
3. Scarlet Phantom (2020): Scarlot Phantom is very helpful against heroes like fighters and tanks. This will really help Irithel fulfill her duty of being a slayer by penetrating through bulk enemies.
4. Berserker’s Fury (2250): Berserker’s Fury is a household name to all marksman heroes. If you are an offensive hero, this item will truly help you gain more damage and critical power.
5. Haas’s Claws (1810): Haas’s Claws provide lifesteal abilities to heroes. This will help the core hero to gain additional advantage from hitting enemies, and that is gaining lifesteal advantage.
6. Wind of Nature (1910): This item is highly recommended for heroes that take on the jungler role. As the core, you are basically expected to be on the field at all times to provide offense. That is why this item will give you a chance to be immune from enemy attacks.
Skills
As the jungle, you can focus on leveling up first the skill that offers defense rather than offense, given that most enemies might immediately attempt to hinder your objectives:
- Level One: First Skill - (Force of the Queen)
- Level Two: Second Skill - (Strafe)
- Level Three: First Skill - (Force of the Queen)
- Level Four: Ultimate Skill - (Heavy Crossbow)
Emblem
The assassin emblem is very helpful for junglers because this will give them more gold advantage.
- Veteran Hunter - Additional gold when you eliminate jungle creeps. Extra 50 Gold upon eliminating Jungle Creeps.
- Wild Power - Additional gold upon killing an enemy affected by the Retribution spell, capped at 1100.
- Demon Slayer - Damage received and dealt from and to Lords and Turtles decreases and increases by 20%
- Iron - Damage received from monsters is reduced.
- Knowledge - Cooldown reduction
- Swift - Improves Attack Speed.
Battle Spells
For junglers, the main battle spell to be used is retribution. This is the battle spell exclusively assigned for junglers, given that this helps them farm fast.
1. Burst
Unleash Irithel's burst damage and contribute well to the team.
It was already mentioned that Irithel possesses burst damage. If you want to maximize her skills, you can opt to use the Burst build in order to make her burst damage deadlier and more penetrative.
Use This Build If…
- Your hero has burst damage - This build will only be effective if your hero possesses burst damage.
- Your enemies are fighters and assassins - Burst damage allows you to deal damage in such a short period of time. Fighters and assassins are often quick and agile. Thus, burst damage is the best way to deal damage against them.
- You choose to take on the marksman role - This build is highly useful for marksman heroes, especially since it only aims to solely enhance the attack of Irithel. From the name of the build itself, it seeks to improve the main burst damage of the hero.
Items:
1. Berserker’s Fury (2250): This item is very crucial for marksman heroes that want to improve their damage power. Basically, Berserker's Fury will allow her to gain critical damage.
2. Swift Boots (710): This is actually a no-brainer item. Do not buy this one, and you will really get hunted down at all times.
3. Scarlet Phantom (2020): Scarlet Phantom works very well with Berserker’s Fury. If you buy them together, you will gain more critical damage that is really helpful to enhance the burst power of Irithel.
4. Blade of Despair (3010): Blade of Despair is a top-tier attack item. You can use this if you already have enough gold to buy an expensive item like this one. BOD is basically the enhancer of all factors that allow a marksman hero to be deadly.
5. Malefic Roar (2060): Malefic Roar is very useful against fighters and tanks. This allows you to be able to use your attacks against them. These enemies are known for being such a strong wall against marksman heroes, but if you buy this one, your hero will definitely shock all fighters and tanks.
6. Haas’s Claws (1810): Haas’s Claws is a very cheap attack item. However, this item is even deemed more worthy compared to Endless Battle when it comes to lifesteal abilities. Thus, you can always choose to pick this one in case your enemies are defensive and have quick HP regeneration.
