Charged Attacks

Consumes a certain amount of Stamina to nimbly dash forward, slashing and using her pistolet to fire Suppressing Shots in a fan pattern.

Plunging Attack

Plunges from mid-air to strike the ground below, damaging opponents along the path and dealing AoE DMG upon impact.

Skill: Hunt the Dark

Preparing her pistolet, she enters the “Night Watch” state, using steel and shot together. In this state, Clorinde’s Normal Attacks will be transformed into “Wild Hunt” pistolet attacks, and the DMG dealt is converted into Electro DMG that cannot be overridden by infusions.

Wild Hunt

When her Bond of Life is equal to or greater than 100% of her max HP: Performs a standard pistolet shot.
When her Bond of Life is less than 100%, firing her pistolet will grant her Bond of Life, with the amount gained based on her max HP. The shots she fires can pierce opponents, and DMG dealt to opponents in their path is increased.

Impale the Night

Clear Clorinde’s Bond of Life, and enhance this usage of Impale the Night based on the value of the Bond of Life cleared as a percentage of her max HP:

When no Bond of Life is cleared, perform a normal lunging strike;
When the value of the Bond of Life cleared is less than 100% of her max HP, increase the AoE of the lunging attack and the DMG dealt, and heal Clorinde, with the amount healed based on the value of the Bond of Life cleared;
When the value of the Bond of Life cleared is equal to or greater than 100% of her max HP, she will use Impale the Night: Pact, in which the AoE and DMG dealt by the lunge is increased even further, and healing multiplier is increased.

In addition, when Clorinde is in the Night Watch state, healing effects other than Impale the Night will not take effect and will instead be converted into a Bond of Life that is a percentage of the healing that would have been received.

Arkhe: Ousia
