Introduction
Skills and Analysis
[ ATK 452 | CRT 11 ]
--------- Narukami Divinity---------
Skills
[SP: 0][CD: 15s] Channel the Honkai Energy in the Divine Key to slash out an X-shaped beam and detonate it with Lightning in a burst of dimensional beams, dealing 400% x 2 + 100% x 4 ATK of Lightning DMG. The first hit inflicts 10 Pazalyze Trauma. Wielder is invincible while casting the weapon active and regains 10 SP.
Herrscher of Thunder equip bonus: Can use the weapon active in burst mode to deal 400% + 100% x 4 ATK of Lightning DMG. She is invincible and has Ultimate Evasion Skill triggered while casting the weapon active. She can use Finisher immediately after casting weapon active, which extends Ultimate CD by 11s. On hit, 2 kinds of weapon actives inflict a 15s Narukami's Mark.
Weapon Active Showcase
Weapon Active HoT in Burst Mode
Analysis
Normal Weapon Active deals high DMG/inflict Trauma/regain SP
As for now there isn't any boss vulnerabled by Pazalyzed Trauma but in some cases, Pazalyzing can help you a lot in terms of Speeding~~~
10 SP recovered is super great, very few weapon has this ability. With the CD of 15s, every rotation gives you free 10 SP while decimating enemies.
For HoT, her rotation changed completely with this new mechanic and will continue to reveal with later's skills. Doesn't need much time for Finisher to usable, you can use weapon active to deal high DMG and immediately finish the enemy with Finisher!
--------- Forfeiture ---------
Skills
Wielder deals 45% bonus Total DMG to enemies of weaker types. Casting Ultimate refreshes weapon skill CD (CD: 10s).
____SPECIAL ADJUSTMENT____
Herrscher of Thunder equip bonus: During the 2-sequence Ultimate, all skill and stage timers are paused. She gains 200 Herrscher Charge on every entry (CD: 10s).
____SUPER SPECIAL ADJUSTMENT____
If HoT casts the weapon active in burst mode and Finisher before exit, the dragion will remain on the field as a summoned entity and bombard enemies in mid-air. She retains Herrscher form while the dragon is present. The dragon gains up to 600 of her current Herrscher Charge, and its bombardment consumes 200% Herrscher Charge and deals 70% DMG compared to her. The dragon disappears if it loses the all energy, has been on the field for 10s, or she casts Ultimate again.
Benares bombards the enemies
Analysis
As we all know 7TR is for HoT and now of course Robot enemies is on danger because of type advantage. However, the usage of this weapon lowers a lot when it only shows its best potential against Robot bosses/mobs.
You can use Normal Weapon Active first then Weapon Active in Burst Mode with HoT super smoothly~
Timer stop saves your time up to 20pts for each Ultimate in Abyss, sometimes you may have to use around 2-3 Ultimates to clear the stage, bunch of pts were saved due to this God Key! Not to mention HoT can freely receive all the buffs from teammate!
Herrscher Charge added to be equal with her Signature Weapon, to use Combo ATK right before Ultimate!
Now go back to the new rotation, after Finisher, Benares will help you to bombard. (even tho it deals much less DMG but meanwhile you can freely attack and use Combo ATK for extra DMG)
--------- Inverse ---------
Skills
In non-burst mode, wielder's Lightning DMG increases by 35%. Herrscher of Thunder equip bonus: When the dragon loses all energy or reaches the time limit, it will dive on enemies, dealing 100% ATK of Lightning DMG. When the dragon is present, every Shinzan Strike makes the dive deal additional 300% ATK of Lightning DMG (capped at 2 x 300%)
Analysis
Coming to the end, every Combo ATK with full energy makes Benares to deal high DMG, an arrow hits 2 birds successfully!
Sadly, you CANNOT trigger Combo ATK 2 times cuz Benares dive on enemies so fast, only in ER when you get this buff it may be possible~
Full new rotation with 7TR
Only difference: Number of DMG (also Benares diving mechanic)
Recommended Battlesuits
With 7TR, HoT can perform more skills and action in the same amount of time, she can enjoy all the buffs from supports and the rotation is much faster with low preparation time!
7TR brought HoT to the whole new lvl with super high DMG boost, can bravely compete with other Meta Lightning Valks!
Weapon Comparison
Due to the new mechanic added from 7TR, the rotation has been changed, I tried to cover the whole rotation with all possible action to maximize the DMG output (till Zhenyi ends)
The DMG gap between 7TR Pri and KoC Pri is super big, it's because of the time stop from 7TR, and the potential itself!
Couldn't test KoC but generally it will lose majority of DMG compared to 7TR~
Gameplay Examples
HoT with new Divine Key - 823 pts against new boss RPC!
Conclusion
Seven Thunders of Retribution is an powerful Sword designed exclusively for Herrscher of Thunder! It brings HoT to a whole new level with such different rotation and massive DMG potential!
Not only providing high permanent buffs, HoT's Ultimate has been influenced with time stop (enjoy the buffs from teammates, saving pts in Abyss), Finisher immediately, Combo ATK while bombard!
It seems like this God Key surpassed her Sig.Weapon a far distance, if you are a Red Lotus maintain, you must pull for 7TR!
Good luck!
Soooooo, that's it! This is KhaiBui, hope it's helpful
