In the August 17 update of the official service of Honor of Kings, the long-redone Cao Cao finally returns handsomely, let's see if he really has domineering power after the rework.

Cao Cao's rework

Cao Cao's redo experience was really bumpy, let's take a look at the final result.

(1) Redo one

Cao Cao's passive rework, the specific effect is as follows:

  • Battle passive (strengthened): From the original release of the skill will increase by 10% attack speed (up to 5 layers superimposed), lasting 5 seconds→ each use of the skill can get the effect of strengthening the general attack, when using the enhanced general attack will increase the attack speed by 25%~70%, the enhanced general attack will be presented in the form of sword qi, hitting the nearest enemy will cause 100% AD bonus damage, hitting the distant enemy will cause 75% AD bonus damage, and the enhanced general attack can be stored up to 5 times.

At first glance, there are many things to adjust, but it is actually very easy to understand.

Before the rework, Cao Cao only received an attack speed bonus after using the skill, and everything else remained the same.

After the rework, Cao Cao will get an enhanced general attack every time he uses the skill, which has several effects: first, the attack range becomes longer (although it is a little worse than the shooter); Second, the attack speed of strengthening the general attack will be improved; Third, the damage of the Enhanced General Attack is adjusted according to the distance of the target (100% in the distance, 70% in the close).

Even if you don't consider the attack range, the increase in attack speed is already very huge (previously it was only 50% to stack 5 layers, but now you can get a minimum attack speed of 35% just by using skills).

(2) Adjustment of skills

The adjustment of Cao Cao's skills is simple:

  • Overlord Blade (Enhanced): The Overlord Blade has added a new effect that reduces cooldown by 30% for each skill released less.

This adjustment of a skill is actually very easy to understand.

For a long time, one of Cao Cao's skills has been his main way of superimposing passivity, and the adjusted Cao Cao is no exception. This time adding a cd-reducing effect to a skill is actually to raise Cao Cao's lower limit as much as possible, so that he can have more enhanced general attacks at critical moments.

(3) Cao Cao's third adjustment

Cao Cao's third adjustment is his offensive speed growth:

  • Attack Speed Growth (Enhanced): Cao Cao's base attack speed increases from 1% →2%, and after reaching the full level, it will increase the attack speed by an additional 14% compared to the previous one.

In fact, this adjustment is a compromise solution, why say so? Because in a certain experience server version, the attack speed bonus of Cao Cao's enhanced general attack is 75%~150%; In a certain version of the experience server, it becomes an increase in its own attack speed.

The increase in attack speed of 75%~150% is too high, and the increase in its own attack speed will be restrained by equipment such as ominous omen, extreme cold storms, etc., and the final plan becomes to increase the attack speed by 35%~70% + basic attack speed growth from 1%~2%.

(4) My outlook for the new Cao Cao

In the current version, Cao Cao really can't, his win rate in all ranks is less than 47%, and his appearance rate in high-end games is less than 1%, which must be adjusted.

Well, now, Cao Cao's attack speed does not need to be slowly superimposed, the attack range is no longer the previous close body, and after several shortcomings are strengthened at the same time, the old Cao Cao is really going to turn over. A word in advance: I personally feel that Cao Cao's subsequent will be weakened, and the weakened place is likely to be the AD bonus that strengthens the general attack, such as changing the long-range AD bonus to 90% (or 80%).

Speaking of guessing the winning percentage, I think the new version of Cao Cao's win rate must be over 51% (possibly more than 52%), and the appearance rate should increase to about 5% (in the full rank).

Cao Cao related activities

Along with Cao Cao's rework, he also received two exclusive events.

Cao Cao's Sky Wolf Conqueror returns for a limited time, this return is the last return of the skin, and if you want to win it in the future, you can only draw a lottery (the cost performance of the lottery is really not high), and the specific encore time is August 17 ~ August 23.

By the way, in order to celebrate Cao Cao's rework, his Super Soldier dropped 78 bonds from the original 388 bonds → 310 bonds; Captain Ghost dropped 158 bonds from 788 bonds → 630 bonds. Although the discount is not very high, it is more cost-effective than buying at full price, and those who are interested can consider it.

The above is all about the hero adjustment in this official server update, are you satisfied with this adjustment? Are you satisfied with Cao Cao's rework? Welcome to leave a message in the comment area to discuss.
