Lethal Weapon: Dealing ability damage to an enemy champion reduces any shields they gain for 3 seconds. Area of effect abilities apply (5% of bonus AP + 25)% shield reduction, capped at 45%; while single target abilities apply (5% of bonus AP + 40)% shield reduction, capped at 60%. When you damage an enemy who is unaffected by Lethal Weapon, all shields on them are reduced by the same values. 2600
Oceanid's Trident TIPS: This item is designed to counter shield-heavy champions. Your abilities significantly reduce the effectiveness of shields enemies receive, while the first hit can also weaken shields that are already active. It is an excellent choice for mages and AP supports against shield-reliant compositions, allowing your team to break through enemy defenses and eliminate priority targets more effectively.

Wild Rift NAUTILUS Video
Watch here!A lonely legend as old as the first piers sunk in Bilgewater, the armored goliath known as Nautilus roams the dark waters off the coast of the Blue Flame Isles. Driven by a forgotten betrayal, he strikes without warning, swinging his enormous anchor to save the wretched, and drag the greedy to their doom. It is said he comes for those who forget to pay the “Bilgewater tithe”, pulling them down beneath the waves with him—an iron-clad reminder that none can escape the depths.
