A 3-Ping grants 1 Signature Point. Final - Ice Flash requires 4 Signature Points to cast.
How to play
Plume - Fundamentals
Plume has two forms and starts in Normal Form:
Pressing the Signature Move button once switches to Arctic Form
Activating Signature Move again in Arctic Form performs a powerful attack and turns Plume back to Normal Form
When in Normal Form:
All of Plume's damage is Physical DMG
Using 3-Pings gives 50% energy and a Signature Point (Max 2)
When in Arctic Form:
All of Plume's damage is converted to Ice DMG
Energy drains quickly, but in exchange it gives a 50% extra Ice DMG buff
Using 3-Pings gives a Signature Point (Max 4)
Signature Points:
Are displayed next to the Signature button in Arctic Form
Can only be fully stacked in Arctic Form (max 2 in Normal Form)
Using her Signature Move with 4 points is essential to deal the most damage
Plume - Additional Information
Core Passive details:
The Blue Orb 3-Ping switch-in attack gives her a Signature Point and 50% energy in Normal Form
Plume's Arctic Form Ice DMG buff also applies to her Signature Move if it's activated before her Energy runs out
Activating Arctic Form with full energy rearranges all the orbs in groups of 3-Pings
Using a Matrix Ping activates a second Matrix, with a fresh use of Matrix Ping
Use the two consecutive Matrix Pings to quickly build Plume's Signature Points
Activating the set doesn't put Plume's Matrix in cooldown
Advanced techniques:
Dodging shortly after Arctic Form's Red Orb Pings skips the animation but still does full damage
Activating Signature Move to swap to Arctic Form grants a brief period of invincibility
It's best to use 3-Pings and Matrix Pings while in Arctic Form and with the 50% extra Ice DMG buff
The best way to deal damage and build full stacks for Plume's Signature Move is: Switch-in free Blue Orb 3-Ping -> Signature Move (Arctic Form) -> Dodge enemy attack (Matrix) -> Matrix Ping -> Matrix Ping (Hanna) -> any 3-Ping -> Signature Move
The 3-Pings must be executed quickly before Plume's Energy runs out
Doing one basic attack before each 3-Ping allows Plume to generate orbs while attacking
After switching to Arctic Form Plume will only be able to use her Signature Move after 3 seconds, regardless of Signature Points or energy
It's possible to cancel the Arctic Form switch animation with a dodge to start the 3 second timer sooner
