Dance of Samser

Normal Attack

Charged Attack

• Consumes a certain amount of Stamina to perform a twirling slash.

Plunging Attack

• Plunges from mid-air to strike the ground below, damaging opponents along the path and dealing AoE damage upon impact.

Elemental Skill—Dance of Haftkarsvar

• Enters the Pirouette state, dealing Hydro damage to nearby opponents based on Nilou’s Max HP.
• While she is in the Pirouette state, Nilou’s Normal Attacks and Elemental Skill will cause her to enter the Sword Dance and Whirling Steps stances respectively, causing damage she deals to be converted to Hydro damage that cannot be overridden and that is considered Elemental Skill damage.
• In these stances, Nilou’s third dance step will end Pirouette, and has the following effects based on the type of said dance step:
  • Sword Dance: unleashes a Luminous Illusion that deals Hydro damage to opponents it touches and grants Nilou the Lunar Prayer effect. This effect converts Nilou’s Normal Attacks into Sword Dance techniques, and her final hit will unleash a Luminous Illusion.
  • Whirling Steps: Nilou unleashes a Whirling Water Wheel that deals AoE Hydro damage and creates a Tranquility Aura that follows your active character around and applies Wet to opponents within its AoE.
• Nilou is unable to perform Charged Attacks when under the effect of Pirouette or Lunar Prayer. These effects will be removed once she leaves the field.
• Cooldown—18 seconds.

Elemental Burst—Dance of Abzendegi: Distant Dreams, Listening Spring

• Begins the dance of faraway dreams and springs that hear, causing a Lotus of Distant Waters to bloom, dealing AoE Hydro damage based on Nilou’s Max HP and applying the Lingering Aeon effect to all opponents hit.
• After an interval, opponents affected by Lingering Aeon will take Hydro damage.
• Energy Cost—70

  • The completion of the third dance step of Nilou’s Dance of Haftkarsvar will grant all nearby characters the Golden Chalice’s Bounty for 30 seconds.
  • Characters under the effect of Golden Chalice’s Bounty will increase the Elemental Mastery of all nearby characters by 100 for 10 seconds whenever they are hit by Dendro attacks. Also, triggering the Bloom reaction will create Bountiful Cores instead of Dendro Cores.
  • Such Cores will burst very quickly after being created, and they have larger AoEs.
  • Bountiful Cores cannot trigger Hyperbloom or Burgeon, and they share an upper numerical limit with Dendro Cores. Bountiful Core damage is considered damage dealt by Dendro Cores produced by Bloom.
  • Should the party not meet the conditions for this Passive Talent, any existing Golden Chalice’s Bounty effects will be canceled.

• Every 1,000 points of Nilou’s Max HP above 30,000 will cause the damage dealt by Bountiful Cores created by characters affected by Golden Chalice’s Bounty to increase by 9%.
