Elemental Burst Havoc: Ruin  Havoc: Ruin
  • Skirk's Elemental Burst is not reliant on Elemental Energy but instead on Serpent's Subtlety.
    When Skirk has at least 50 Serpent's Subtlety, she can expend all her Serpent's Subtlety to unleash her Elemental Burst, ripping the space before her apart and using rapid consecutive slashes that deal AoE Cryo DMG. At the same time, the DMG dealt by an instance of this Elemental Burst can be increased by every point of Serpent's Subtlety over 50 when it is unleashed. Up to 12 points can be counted for this purpose.
  • When Skirk is in the Seven-Phase Slash mode, Havoc: Ruin will be replaced by Havoc: Extinction.
  • Havoc: Extinction
    • A special Elemental Burst that can be used even without consuming Serpent's Subtlety.
    • After using it, Skirk will gain the "All Shall Wither" effect, which will last until Seven-Phase Flash ends. After unlocking the Passive Talent Reason Beyond Reason, she can also absorb nearby Void Rifts.
      While "All Shall Wither" is active, every 0.1s, after Skirk's Normal Attack hits an opponent, that Normal Attack will deal increased DMG. If she absorbed any Void Rifts while using Havoc: Extinction, this Normal Attack's DMG will be further increased based on the number of Rifts absorbed.
    • This effect will be canceled when it has triggered 10 times.
Skill Attributes (Lv.9)
Skill DMG 234.8%×5
Skill Final Attack DMG 391.3%
Serpent's Subtlety Bonus 28.26% ATK Per Point

Passives
Reason Beyond Reason
  • When nearby party members trigger Frozen, Superconduct, Cryo Swirl, or Cryo Crystallize reactions against opponents, a Void Rift will be created near this opponent. This effect can be triggered once every 2.5s. 3 Void Rifts created by Skirk herself can exist on the field at once.
  • Skirk can use the following methods to absorb nearby Void Rifts:
    • When she hits an opponent with a Charged Attack in her Seven-Phase Flash mode.
    • When she uses the special Elemental Burst Havoc: Extinction while in the Seven-Phase Flash mode.
    • When she Holds her Elemental Skill Havoc: Warp to engage in rapid movement.
  • Each Rift absorbed will grant her 8 Serpent's Subtlety points.
Reason Beyond Reason
Mutual Weapons Mentorship
  • When all party members are either Hydro or Cryo, and if there is at least 1 Hydro and 1 Cryo character, party members' Elemental Skill Level is increased by 1.
Mutual Weapons Mentorship
Return to Oblivion
  • When nearby Hydro party members deal Hydro DMG, or when nearby Cryo party members apart from Skirk deal Cryo DMG, Skirk will gain the "Death's Crossing" effect for 20s. Max 3 stacks, each stack's duration is counted independently. Each character can grant Skirk at most 1 "Death's Crossing" stack by this means.
  • Each "Death's Crossing" stack increases the Normal Attack DMG dealt by Skirk in Seven-Phase Flash mode by 110%/120%/170% of its original DMG and increases the DMG dealt when using her Elemental Burst Havoc: Ruin by 105%/115%/160% of its original DMG.
