How to play

Glory - Fundamentals
  • The hexagonal icon displays Glory's current Glorious Shield amount
  • The gauge to the right of the Glorious Shield icon displays Glory's current Core Energy amount
    • With full Core Energy, hold Basic Attack to enter Frost Spirit Form, rearranging existing Signal Orbs into Red-Blue-Yellow order and consuming all Glorious Shield in the process
  • Glory temporarily gains Condensed Frost state during certain actions, indicated by the bright blue armor covering Glory's body
    • The initial Basic Attack hold used to enter Frost Spirit Form will briefly grant Condensed Frost
    • While in Frost Spirit Form, all Basic Attacks and 3-Pings deal enhanced damage and grant Condensed Frost
    • While not in Frost Spirit Form, if Glory has at least 50% Glorious Shield, 3-Pings will consume 50% Glorious Shield to deal enhanced damage and grant Condensed Frost
  • If an enemy attack hits Glory while Condensed Frost state is active, damage from the incoming hit is nullified, nearby enemies are slowed, and Glory gains 50% Glorious Shield
  • By entering Frost Spirit Form and repeatedly casting Basic Attacks, Glory obtains incredible survivability against aggressive enemies, and can conserve his Dodge Energy for when Frost Spirit Form ends
    • For additional survivability outside of Frost Spirit Form, maintain at least 50% Glorious Shield so that Glory can cast enhanced 3-Pings to nullify incoming enemy attacks
Glory - Additional Information
  • Upon first entering battle, Glory's HP is reduced to 40% of its maximum value, with the remaining 60% taken up by Glorious Shield
  • While Glory is not in Frost Spirit Form, Glorious Shield will continuously regenerate even while Glory is off-field
  • Frost Spirit Form lasts 8 seconds, with remaining duration represented by the Core Energy gauge
    • Glory's enhanced Basic Attack while in Frost Spirit Form does not generate Signal Orbs
    • Enemies hit by the periodic damage caused by Frost Spirit Form's Eroding Chill area will have their Ice Resistance reduced by 15% for 8 seconds, refreshing on every hit
    • Core Energy takes 15 seconds to fully refill, and will continuously regenerate even while Glory is off-field
  • Entering Frost Spirit Form immediately after nullifying a hit with either an enhanced 3-Ping or the Basic Attack hold itself will allow Glory to enter Frost Spirit Form with the 50% Glorious Shield granted by the successful Condensed Frost defense
  • Condensed Frost will only nullify one hit from an enemy, after which the armor will disappear for the remainder of the action that granted this instance of Condensed Frost
    • Glory will still have Super Armor for the remainder of Condensed Frost state's original duration for that action, even if the armor has already nullified a hit
    • The slow inflicted by a successful Condensed Frost defense can help prevent subsequent close-range attacks from hitting Glory until he regains Condensed Frost state with another action, but he will still need to be wary of high-frequency close-range attacks and ranged attacks launched from beyond the slow radius
    • Glory's SS-Rank passive upgrades this slow to a freeze, improving his survivability against close-range foes
  • Condensed Frost's defense will not trigger against damage caused by certain environmental affixes and enemy buffs (e.g. lightning strikes caused by the Lightning Shield buff)
