✦New Battlesuit: Fenghuang of Vicissitude✦
"Inconstant and unpredictable nature of death — life and death follow their own rhythm."
Fenghuang of Vicissitude (FoV) is an S-rank BIO-type DPS battlesuit who wields Gauntlets to inflict melee Fire DMG. Fu Hua can switch between Punch Stance and Kick Stance as she strikes down her foes.
Kick Stance’s Parry ATK Rampant Blades
◆ Parry ATK
Hold [EVA] for Parry Stance, which can then be connected to the Parry ATK of either Punch/Kick Stances.
◆ Joint ATK: Swirling Uppercut and Vigorous Strike
With full Qi, hold [ATK] to consume all Qi to cast Combo ATK of either Punch/Kick Stance and enter Qi Accumulation state.
After Combo ATK :
→ tap [WEP] for Joint ATK of opposite Stance
or → tap [ATK] for Joint ATK of current Stance.
◆ Enhanced Joint ATKs: Scorching Sun Strike and Burning Wind Sweep
After FoV casts 3 Combo, Joint, or Parry ATKs → ignite your Heart Flame. Then Combo ATK to consume Heart Flame for an enhanced Joint ATK of the current Stance (also consumes own HP).
In Punch Stance, cast enhanced Joint ATK Scorching Sun Strike to slam the enemy to the ground while invincible.
In Kick Stance, cast enhanced Joint ATK Burning Wind Sweep to slash enemies with sharp wings while also being invincible.
◆ Ultimate: Eruption That Churns Tides and Clouds
FoV consumes her entire HP bar to deliver an unparalleled blow of massive Fire DMG while being invincible and casting a Time-Frozen Domain. After Ult-cast, the phoenix will recover some HP.
