Pei is one of the game’s assassins and fighters who offers both ranged and burst poke, along with high mobility for tower sieges. To master this hero and maximize his potential on the battlefield, we need to learn more about him.

Let’s start with learning about Pei Qin Hu’s skills.

Skills

Just as any other hero, Pei’s skill set comprises of a passive, regular skills and an ultimate.

Passive Skill: Blast 

• The basic attack range increases in human form, and they deal an additional 16 magic damage.
• Continuous basic attacks that hit the same target within a span of 3 seconds can stack its damage up to 3 times its base value. 
• Basic attack hits restore 5 energy points.
• Pei’s attacks in human form also tend to recover energy faster, ultimately preparing for a burst when he transforms to tiger form. 
• Tiger form Pei has higher base attributes along with stronger combat mechanics. It however, has slower energy recovery. This needs to be complemented and considered by using the features when in human form.

Skill 1 (Human form): Striker Stance

• Pei fires Inner Energy in the target direction, dealing magic damage with a +115% bonus physical damage to enemies in its path and slowing them. 
• This skill also deals additional 8% of the target’s current health as magic damage, which reduced the target’s movement speed by 50% for 1.5 seconds
• Recovers 20 Energy points upon hit.
• This skill also offers poke and control effects with a long attack range. This allows Pei Qin Hu to harass enemies from afar. 
• Additionally, its short cooldown allows for strong finishing capabilities.

Skill 1 (Tiger form): Roaring Tiger Stance

• This skill is in the tiger form where you bite enemies, dealing damage. 
• Also restores energy if this attack kills the enemy.

Skill 2 (Human Form): Guarding Stance

• Pei creates a Qi aura around himself with this skill, dealing +70% bonus physical damage to nearby enemies.
• When used, it also forms a shield of 400 (+150% bonus physical attack) points and increases Pei’s attack speed for 5 seconds.
• As the shield is active, the skill deals magic damage with +14% bonus physical attack every 0.5 seconds to all enemies that are close by. 
• The Qi shield remains while switching forms. This allows Pei Qin Hu to take advantage of his complex terrain for additional damage and also to evade enemies flexibly.

Skill 2 (tiger Form): Leaping Tiger Stance

• Pei, as a tiger, pounces in the enemy’s direction. 
• If he runs into terrain, he latches on briefly before he can pounce again.
• Once the pounce hits an enemy, he inflicts damages, recovers Energy, and also reduces this skill’s cooldown.

Ultimate Skill: (Tiger Form or Human Form)

• In this ultimate, Pei switches to tiger or human form, increasing his movement speed by 30% for 1 second. Also enhances the next two basic attacks for seven seconds. 
• The first strike pounces on the target dealing damage +100% physical attack and a 90% slow for 1 second. 
• If you use the second strike within 5 seconds, it deals magic damage +100% physical attack to enemies in front.
• Since Pei Qin Hu offers dual forms and two sets of distinct skills from level 1, choose the appropriate form based on the current battle situation.
