Synn Store BLOG - Zetian MLBB: Full Build, Combo, Skill Guide, and Tips

The lastest mage hero in Mobile Legends, Zetian, has just landed on the original server! With powerful damage potential and a straightforward kit, Zetian is perfect for players looking to master a new mage with both utility and burst. I will guide you through skills, builds, combos, emblem setup, battle spells, and the ideal way to play Zetian!

Zetian’s Skill Breakdown

Passive — Divine Ring

When Zetian’s passive is ready, a golden ring appears around her. Enemies who enter this area will be knocked back and stunned, while Zetian receives a 3-second shield. The cooldown is 2 minutes, similar to Nana’s passive.

Skill 1 — Phoenix Wave

Zetian’s main damage skill. She fires three waves of phoenix energy while moving, gaining 10% movement speed. The third wave deals the most damage and slightly knocks enemies back. You must hit an enemy for all three waves to activate.

Skill 2 — Void Spirit

Deals damage, applies 50% slow, reveals enemies in bushes, and reduces magic defense by 10%. You can cast it again to reposition the spirit—essentially a short dash or move.

Ultimate — Celestial Sight

Similar to Yi Sun-shin’s global ultimate, but with a twist: reveals all enemies, deals damage, stuns enemies hit, and gives the entire team a 60% movement speed boost. Zetian can still use other skills while her ult is active—perfect for chaining combos.

Recommended Build for Zetian

1. Enchanted Talisman – Core item due to high cooldowns.

2. Cooldown Boots – Mandatory for frequent spell casting.

3. Fleeting Time – Resets your ultimate on assists or kills.

4. Glowing Wand – Adds burn effect and anti-regen.

5. Divine Glaive – Strong penetration against high magic defense.

6. Holy Crystal / Lightning Truncheon / Sky Piercer (optional) – For late-game burst damage.

> Target 45% cooldown reduction to spam skills and chain ultimates reliably.

Best Emblem & Spell

• Mage Emblem with Magic Penetration Talent

• Flicker is essential since Zetian lacks escape mobility unlike Pharsa or Faramis.

  
  

Optimal Skill Combo

Recommended order:

1. Skill 2, reposition if needed

2. Skill 1, land all 3 waves

3. Ultimate, then follow up with other skills during the cast

   
   

Gameplay Tips

• Prioritize Skill 1 at level 1, then Skill 2, and unlock Ultimate at level 4

• Be cautious during passive cooldown—Zetian becomes an easy target

• Use Flicker + Skill 1 for surprise initiations

• Her ultimate can shift teamfights—vision, damage, stun, and team buff all in one

With utility in early game and explosive burst in late game, Zetian is both a support mage and a powerful damage dealer. Though she lacks natural mobility, her zoning tools and team synergy more than make up for it.
