Blood Well

Blood Well

Aatrox fills his Blood Well through his abilities, depleting by (20% maximum) per second while out of combat. When the Blood Well is filled, Aatrox becomes Hellbent for 4 seconds as the Blood Well drains. While Hellbent, dealing or taking damage against enemy champions or neutral monsters will completely fill the Blood Well and refresh Hellbent's duration.

Hellbent: Aatrox gains Attack damage icon 25% increased base AD and 30 / 40 / 50 / 60% (based on level) Attack speed icon bonus attack speed. Upon taking fatal damage Aatrox will revive over 3 seconds, recovering Health icon 30% of maximum health over the duration. Upon reviving, Aatrox instantly recovers 100% of Blood Well. Aatrox's revive is then put on a cooldown.

Info
  • Aatrox's resource bar colors red when Hellbent is active (light red when the revive is off cooldown, dark red when on cooldown)
  • Chronoshift Chronoshift and Guardian Angel's Guardian Angel's passive will take precedence over Blood Well's revive.
  • Blood Well's Stasis icon stasis causes Aatrox to become Untargetable icon untargetable, which will reset turret aggro.
  • Tethers from abilities (Soul Shackles Soul Shackles) will remain active while Aatrox is reviving.
  • Blood Well's healing component interacts with Spirit Visage's Spirit Visage's passive.

Dark Flight

Dark Flight

Active: After a brief delay, Aatrox Dash dashes to the target area Unstoppable icon unstoppably, filling 20% of his Blood Well Blood Well, dealing Attack damage physical damage to nearby units upon landing, and Airborne icon knocking up all units in the epicenter for 1 second.

Physical Damage:
20 / 50 / 80 / 110 / 140 (+ 110% AD)

Info
  • Dark Flight possesses a considerable overhead for a dash ability, able to traverse many walls that are otherwise much wider than the indicator suggests is possible to vault.
  • If Aatrox is sent Airborne icon airborne or forced into Blood Well's Blood Well's Stasis icon stasis during the initial flight time, Dark Flight will fail and will not cause him to dash.
    • Other forms of crowd control applied while the animation is in progress will be suspended until the animation finishes.
  • Dark Flight does not cancel other commands. Aatrox will immediately begin attacking after he lands.
  • With smartcast on, Dark Flight will be cast immediately and at 650-range if the cursor is beyond that.
  • Flash Flash cannot be cast during Dark Flight.

Blood Price

Toggle On – Blood Price Blood Price: Aatrox deals bonus on-hit physical damage and fills 20% of his Blood Well Blood Well.

Physical Damage:
50 / 85 / 120 / 155 / 190 (+ 75% bonus AD)

Info
  • The attack counter between Blood Thirst and Blood Price is shared, meaning that toggling the ability with one empowered attack prepared will immediately allow use of the empowered attack of the other.
  • Toggling between Blood Thirst and Blood Price does not reset the basic attack timer. It will, however, cancel an empowered basic attack in its windup animation if it is toggled during that time.
  • Toggled abilities do not count as ability activation for the purposes of effects such as Spellblade or Force Pulse Force Pulse.
  • Aatrox's basic attack animation correlates with the amount of stacks for Blood Thirst/Price. The first basic attack animation (after leveling up Blood Thirst/Price or proccing an empowered basic attack) is Aatrox swinging his sword to the left, the second is to the right and the third basic attack animation (which will be affected by Blood Thirst/Price) is Aatrox stabbing the target.
  • Blood Thirst/Price will not proc against turrets or wards.
  • The triggering attack will apply other on-hit effects and can Critical strike icon critically strike as normal.
    • Unlike most other on-hit physical damage, Blood Price's bonus damage does not apply life steal; this is a special case. The triggering attack will still apply life steal.
    • However, using Death's Dance Death's Dance would then heal Aatrox for 15% of the Blood Price's bonus damage.
    • Blood Thirst/Price will miss if Aatrox is Blind icon blinded.
    • Critical strike icon Critical strikes do not interact with the bonus damage of Blood Thirst/Blood Price.

Info
