Aphelios is a unique marksman champion in League of Legends who wields an arsenal of five Moonstone Weapons created by his sister Alune. He can equip two weapons at a time - a main weapon and an off-hand weapon - each with distinct basic attacks and passive effects.

His weapon arsenal includes:

  • Calibrum (Sniper Rifle): Provides bonus range and marks enemies for powerful follow-up attacks
  • Severum (Scythe Pistol): Offers non-projectile attacks that heal Aphelios
  • Gravitum (Gravity Cannon): Slows enemies and can root them
  • Infernum (Flamethrower): Creates damaging cone effects behind targets
  • Crescendum (Chakram): Returns after attacks and stacks for bonus damage

Key Mechanics:

  • Uses Moonlight as ammunition (50 per weapon)
  • Cannot improve abilities with skill points
  • Gains stats instead of ability levels
  • Main weapon switches automatically when depleted
  • Ultimate effect changes based on main weapon
  • Requires careful weapon management and timing

Rather than traditional ability leveling, Aphelios gains:

  • Bonus Attack Damage
  • Bonus Attack Speed
  • Lethality

His ultimate, Moonlight Vigil, fires a lunar beam that damages enemies and triggers additional effects based on his current main weapon.

Difficulty: High Style: Strategic marksman requiring weapon mastery Position: Bottom lane carry

The champion requires extensive knowledge of his weapons and combinations to maximize effectiveness in different situations.
