When an ally's attack causes an enemy's HP percentage to fall to 50% or lower, Herta will launch a Follow-up ATK, dealing Ice DMG equal to 25%—43% of Herta's ATK to all enemies.

When this Talent is triggered multiple times in a single action, the resulting attacks will all be delivered in a single Follow-Up Attack.
