Elemental Burst

Description

Skirk's Elemental Burst is not reliant on Elemental Energy but instead on .
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 will 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 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 Ascension Talent , 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.

Title	Description
Character Summary	Skirk is a Cryo DMG dealer who uses Serpent's Subtlety to attack opponents. She can either deal continuous DMG or burst DMG, depending on how her abilities are used. When she uses her Elemental Skill , she can obtain Serpent's Subtlety to help her sustain her special mode "Seven-Phase Flash" or use her Elemental Burst "Havoc: Ruin." Additionally, when party members trigger Frozen, Superconduct, Cryo Swirl, or Cryo Crystallize reactions, they will also create Void Rifts on the field. Skirk can absorb these Void Rifts through specialized means, which will allow her to obtain additional Serpent's Subtlety.
Serpent's Subtlety: I	When Skirk uses her Elemental Skill , she can obtain a fixed amount of Serpent's Subtlety. Serpent's Subtlety can: · Maintain the special mode "Seven-Phase Flash," which she can enter by Tapping her Elemental Skill, and in which her Normal Attacks will be enhanced. · Be fully consumed to unleash the Elemental Burst "Havoc: Ruin," unleashing rapid consecutive slashes against opponents.

She will also absorb any nearby Void Rifts to obtain additional Serpent's Subtlety. When Skirk has more than 50 Serpent's Subtlety, she can use her Elemental Burst , consuming all her Serpent's Subtlety to perform rapid consecutive slashes that deal immense Cryo DMG to opponents. The more Serpent's Subtlety is consumed, the greater the DMG dealt. Hover over previews to view in higher quality. (Preview Preferences) Media:Skirk Talent Demo 5.mp4
