  • Short E: Applies Pyro to enemies every 2 seconds in an area of effect, even when Mavuika is off-field.
  • Long E: Mavuika rides a motorcycle gaining Pyro infusion. While riding, she has a new Normal Attack combo. The Charged Attack involves spinning the motorcycle in circles then lifting the front wheel to strike enemies, generating a certain amount of Nightsoul Points. Pyro Infusion ends when the Nightsoul Points are depleted.

Elemental Burst

  • The Elemental Burst does not consume energy but instead relies on Battle Will, with a maximum of 200 points. When Battle Will reaches 50%, it can be fully consumed to unleash the burst.
  • Ways to generate Battle Will: Nearby characters generating Nightsoul Points convert them into Battle Will / Nearby characters hitting enemies with Normal Attacks generate Battle Will.
  • The first hit of Battle Will scales with the amount of Battle Will consumed. Afterward, Mavuika enters an Awakened State for 7 seconds, which grants increased resistance to interruption. Both Normal and Charged Attack damage scale with the amount of Battle Will consumed. During this state, no actions consume Nightsoul Points.

Passive 1

  • Upon casting the burst, all active characters gain a damage boost based on the amount of Battle Will consumed up to 50%. The boost gradually decreases over time.

Passive 2

  • When any Nightsoul Burst is on the field, Mavuika gains a 35% Attack bonus.

Passive 3

  • Allows Mavuika to fly, run, swim, and climb with ease.
