Augran Guide: The Mid-Range Sustained Warrior
Augran is a formidable new Warrior in Honor of Kings, blending sustained physical and magical damage with high mobility and exceptional self-healing. He excels at aggressive initiation and outlasting opponents in extended skirmishes.
1. Augran’s Core Skills Analysis
Augran’s unique strength comes from his mid-range attack, wall-ignoring dashes, and health-scaling healing.
| Skill Name | Type | Key Effect & Mechanics | Strategy Focus |
| Passive: Sustained Damage Orb | Sustained Damage | Basic attacks create a Soul Link (0.42 AD physical damage/hit) for 3s. When the link ends, it bursts for Magic Damage. | Mid-Range Advantage: Attack range is 600 units. Use this range to kite melee heroes. High Orb: Ensure continuous basic attacks to maximize the 8 hits from the soul link. |
| Skill 1: High-Speed Dash | Mobility/Ignored Terrain | Slices a path, dealing damage. Accelerates and ignores terrain (walls) when traversing the path, granting Movement Speed. Hitting a wall creates an Afterlife Bridge (slows enemies). | Ganking/Flanking: Use walls near the Dragon Pit or in team fights to quickly access the enemy backline. Second Activation: Use S1 again to enter Seer State (4s), enabling execution on enemies under 8% health. |
| Skill 2: Group Slow & Healing | AoE/Utility/Heal | Swings the weapon, leaving a boundary that deals damage, slows, and marks enemies. Enhanced basic attacks on marked targets deal extra damage and heal Augran based on his extra health. | Sustain Engine: Hitting multiple targets (especially 3) allows enhanced attacks to heal you from low to full health. Jungling: Mark multiple monsters with S2 to heal efficiently. |
| Ultimate: Shield, Healing, Spirits | Initiation/Burst/Heal | Lands with an explosive impact, granting a shield, dealing damage, and knocking back enemies. Enters Divine State and heals. Hitting enemies summons up to 3 Spirits (30% inherited AD) for 8s. | Team Fight Entry: Use S1 to position first, then Ult to maximize the number of targets hit. Spirits deal significant extra damage via basic/enhanced attacks. |
⏫ Skill Upgrade Order

2. Augran’s Combo Techniques
Executing combos correctly is vital for maximizing healing and securing kills.
| Combo Name | Input | Purpose |
| Team Fight Initiation | 1 > 2 > A > 3 > A > A | A full burst/sustain sequence. S1 for entry, S2 to mark/slow, Auto-Attack (A) to heal, Ult (3) for shield/spirits, and follow up with basic attacks. |
| Ambush/Gank | 2 > A > 3 > A > A > 1 | Use S2 to mark a close target, heal/damage with the enhanced auto, Ult for burst, and use S1’s second activation to execute if needed. |
| Flank/Sustain | S1 (Wall Dash) > S1 (Seer State) > 2 > A | S1 provides the speed boost/flank. S1 activation 2 gives the execute. Use S2/Enhanced Auto (A) to slow/heal. |
Key Tip: Since the Ultimate automatically enters the Seer State, using S1’s second activation immediately after the Ultimate is redundant unless you need the specific Movement Speed boost from the path.
3. Recommended Builds
Augran’s healing and utility scale heavily with Extra Health, making a durable, sustained build most effective.
🩸 Build 1: The “Tank Blood Demon” (Sustained Output & Durability)
| Item Slot | Item Name | Rationale |
| 1 | Giant’s Grip | Core jungle item. Provides HP for scaling and attack damage. |
| 2 | Boots of Tranquility / Boots of Resistance | Start with Tranquility (CDR), switch to Resistance for team fights (CC reduction). |
| 3 | Blood Rage | CORE ITEM. Increases both damage and Health, amplifying S2 healing and sustain. |
| 4 | Doomsday | Provides passive orb damage, maximizing your Soul Link and sustained DPS. |
| 5 | Situational Defense | Choose between Overlord’s Platemail (Physical Defense/HP) or Longnight Guardian (MR/Regen). |
| 6 | Cuirass of Savagery | Blends defense and physical attack, rewarding aggressive play. |
⚔️ Build 2: Red Blade Pure Sky (Semi-Tank Jungler)
A more damage-focused build for snowballing and late-game cleanup.
- Damage: Shadow Ripper, Axe of Torment
- Defense/Sustain: Cuirass of Savagery, Pure Sky (Crucial defensive utility)
4. Emblems & Battle Preparation
🛡️ Recommended Emblems
Suitable emblems should enhance his durability, mobility, and damage scaling.
- Focus on: Warrior and Tank Emblems.
- Key Stats: Physical Attack, Max Health, Cooldown Reduction (CDR), and Physical Penetration.
✨ Battle Spells
- Smite: Mandatory for the Jungle role.
5. Summary of Augran’s Strengths
Augran is defined by his ability to maintain combat effectiveness through his unique resource scaling:
- Top-Tier Healing: S2’s enhanced basic attack healing, especially against multiple targets, provides unparalleled sustain for a jungler.
- Exceptional Mobility: S1’s terrain-ignoring dash allows for fast rotations and tricky, high-angle ganks, providing quick access to the enemy backline.
- Sustained Damage: His passive (Soul Link) and the spirits summoned by his Ultimate ensure continuous, dual-type (Physical/Magic) damage output.
- Durability: The semi-tank itemization, self-healing, and Ultimate shield make him hard to take down, giving him a higher effective health pool than most assassins.
