Hello Arena of Valor players, today we present you an Arcana Guide for the most and best heroes in the game. This Arcana Guide for Arena of Valor should help new but also advanced players which arcanas they should buy. Our arcana builds are for how we believe these heroes you should play and also our item builds will cater to our arcana setups. Feel free to adjust the arcana setups based on your builds and your best arcana. Also feel free to comment, if you disagree and explain your reasoning. So don’t blindly buy these arcana until you are abolutly sure that they work for you in Arena of Valor.

Arena of Valor – Best Arcana Guide

If there are other viable ways to play (like AP vs AD valhein), just ask in comments / figure out based on other similar heroes. Maybe flurry is better than hex on the most mages, so buy at your own risk.

Hero	Red	Purple	Green
Violet	7 Atrocity, 3 Rampage	7 Guerrilla, 3 Reave	10 Skewer (10 atrocity is higher dps but i like the rampage just to do extra dmg when i crit. i go some reave just to keep sustain during jungle / lane
Moren	10 Atrocity	7 Guerrilla, 3 Reave	10 Skewer
Fennik	10 Blitz or 10 Onslaught (secondary choice imo)	7 Guerrilla, 3 Reave	10 Skewer
