[Top 3] TFT Best Aphelios Builds That Are Powerful
Aphelios comes out of the moonlight's shadow with his guns drawn and kills the people who are against his faith in a brooding silence. He only says anything by being sure of his aim and firing each gun.
Even though he is full of a poison that makes him mute, his sister Alune leads him to her faraway temple sanctuary, where she gives him an arsenal of moonstone weapons. Aphelios will never be alone as long as the moon is up in the sky.
This article is a full guide on how to play Aphelios in TFT to make sure you outstand your opponents with his weapons.
The Solari do not see: we shine brightest with another's light.
The moon towers over Mount Targon, far but close. Due to the fact that Aphelios and his twin sister Alune were born during a rare lunar confluence when the spirit reflection of the moon overshadowed the actual moon, Targon's Lunari faith revered them as children of destiny.
The two youngsters understood they were fated—Aphelios physically like the stone moon and Alune magically like its spiritual reflection—because of the celestial event that marked their birth. They believed in mystery, introspection, and discovery and welcomed darkness as the one thing that could protect them.
The Solari who governed Targon deemed the Lunari heretical, forcing them into hiding until most forgot they existed. Lunari lived in temples and caves hidden from Solaris.
Aphelios had to be perfect. He exercised with moonstone swords, pouring his blood to safeguard the religion. Intense and sensitive, he linked intimately with his sister instead of other friends.
Alune studied as a seer, utilising her moonlight power to uncover secret paths and truths, while Aphelios was dispatched on more risky missions to safeguard the Lunari. Her duties eventually compelled her to leave their temple. Aphelios doubted Alune's existence without her.
He travelled into darkness to find his mission. He followed the moon to a pool of rare noctum flowers. The toxic blooms might be distilled into a drink that gave him nocturnal strength. Aphelios was numbed by the noctum's essence.
After then, the Marus Omegnum, a centuries-old temple, emerged from the spirit realm. Lunari from across the mountain emerged from hiding to watch cosmic cycles swap power.
Each time it arose, the stronghold accepted one magic-gifted resident. Alune would orbit the temple this time. Aphelios, who seldom asks, asked to attend.
The darkness became brighter as the stronghold pierced through the barrier in a magnificent show. Despite favourable celestial cycles, the Lunari were identified. Solari's armies attacked.
The Solari cleansing the Lunari heresy with fire and steel appeared hopeless. Even Aphelios was defeated, his moonstone swords broken as he grasped for the noctum.
Alune walked further within the temple while the conflict raged, unlocking her full ability when she reached its center. Alune's force and voice enveloped Aphelios during the night. She spoke magic into his hands to replace his moonstone-solidifying swords. Aphelios's expertise and Alune's power merged like the stone moon's spiritual reflection. The Solari would die.
Alune pulled the temple and herself into the spirit realm, secure from the Solari, as her strength ignited. Alune could project her magic wherever she wanted, like Aphelios' poison, by utilising the temple's focused power.
They now understood their fate. Aphelios would suffer yet channel the moon's power. Alune would live alone in her fortress, but she would guide her brother through his eyes.
The Lunari needed their pain-bound weapon. Only apart could they be together—their spirits touching over the border, distant but impossibly close, uniting into something they could not grasp.
Alune's magic has empowered Aphelios' assassin training to guard the survivors who fled into the mountain's shadows. Alune has refined his swords into supernatural weapons over countless missions.
Aphelios and Alune are needed more than ever now that Targon is transforming and the Solari know the Lunari will survive.
