The Wild Rift 7.3e patch notes reveal a new connection that can be created between augments in AAA ARAM: K/DA prisms count as summoned units and benefit from Minion-series augments. This interaction provides a concrete reason to examine how augments work together rather than simply reading them individually.
While the Star Guardian series focuses on team-wide contributions, Mimicking Sands, Arcane Shadow, and All in Good Fun introduce mechanics such as champion swapping and ability copying. This news concerns mobile Wild Rift patch 7.3e; it is not the same content package as LoL PC’s 26.23 cosmetic preview.
Why Should K/DA and Minion Be Considered Together?
According to Riot’s explanation, the K/DA series introduces new options for automatically attacking opponents during combat. The Minion series, meanwhile, empowers summoned units. The bridge between the two series is that K/DA prisms are also considered summoned units. Therefore, when evaluating a Minion option, do not look only at your champion’s own abilities; review your other augments as well. If you have a prism interaction on the K/DA side, you can consider whether the summoned-unit enhancement works with that build. This does not mean that every K/DA–Minion combination is the best choice in every match. Evaluate an augment based on which need it addresses in your current build. Finding two effects that support each other is important, but whether your champion can survive the fight and how your team approaches combat should also factor into your decision.
What Do the New Augment Groups Focus On?
| K/DA | Automatic attacks during combat |
| Minion | Empowering summoned units |
| Star Guardian | Team-wide contributions and power increases |
| Mimicking Sands, Arcane Shadow, All in Good Fun | Different mechanics involving champion swapping and ability copying |
Do not interpret the three names in the final row as a group in which each augment performs the same function. Riot is introducing them together as new mechanical options; refer to the individual description of the augment you receive. Do not base calculations on numerical bonuses or activation details that are not provided in the announcement.
Which Questions Are Helpful During Testing?
If you are testing the interaction between K/DA and Minion, first define the benefit you expect. Are you trying to increase the impact of a summoned unit, or are you attempting to address a weakness in an already powerful build? Setting a goal prevents you from making choices solely by matching theme names. With a Star Guardian option, broaden your perspective to the entire team. Instead of looking for a personal damage increase, consider what the augment provides to the group you are playing with. Even when playing the same champion, your choice may change if your team has different needs. If you encounter an augment involving champion swapping or ability copying, read its new description before entering combat. Acting according to your previous ability setup may make it harder to take advantage of the changed mechanic. When evaluating the result of a test, try to distinguish execution errors from the augment’s actual contribution.
Content Will Unlock Throughout the Patch
Riot states that the new features will become available over the course of the patch. Therefore, it has not been confirmed that every option will be available in Turkey at the same time. If content shown on the list has not yet appeared on your account, do not treat that alone as proof of a bug or removal. Follow the latest in-game descriptions. When comparing new interactions in particular, knowing which version and rollout stage you are playing on will help you interpret other players’ experiences more accurately.
ItemGold’s Take
The most useful aspect of 7.3e is that it encourages players to focus on how augments interact rather than their names. Having K/DA prisms count as summoned units makes a connection that could easily be overlooked on the selection screen more visible. For your separate cosmetic needs, you can browse the ItemGold Wild Rift Wild Cores category and the Wild Rift 1,000 Wild Cores product. The product is listed for mobile and Turkish accounts. Do not treat this store balance and in-match augment selection as the same system.
