How to play
Feral - Fundamentals
The paw icon fills up to display Wolfspirit Points, while the number in the center of the paw icon displays Critical Arclight points
The claws on top of the paw icon pulse with a purple glow when Forest Predator is available
Forest Predator's availability resets after casting Signature Move or switching Feral on-field
After casting any 3-Ping, immediately press Basic Attack to launch Dusk Fluorescence, a follow-up pounce attack that grants Wolfspirit Points
Precisely timing the Basic Attack with the purple mark will cause Dusk Fluorescence to deal increased damage and grant double the Wolfspirit Points
During any 3-Ping, if Forest Predator is available, up to 3 additional Signal Orbs can be pinged to activate Deceleration Field, temporarily slowing enemies and activating Dusk Fluorescence's purple mark for the duration of the field
The claws on top of the paw icon will light up to indicate how many Signal Orbs have been pinged during Forest Predator
Casting Dusk Fluorescence during Forest Predator will sort existing Signal Orbs into 3-Pings
Use Forest Predator first when available, as it guarantees a precise casting of Dusk Fluorescence for the increased Wolfspirit Point gain, and lets you cast another Dusk Fluorescence afterwards from the resorted 3-Pings to quickly max out Feral's Wolfspirit Points
With max Wolfspirit Points, hold Basic Attack to begin Wolfspirit Release, unleashing ranged AoE claw swipes
Each swipe consumes Wolfspirit Points and grants Signature Energy and Critical Arclight points
Casting Signature Move will trigger Time Lag Calculation and consume all Critical Arclight points to enhance its damage
Feral - Additional Information
Pressing Dodge during Wolfspirit Release performs a backstep that will not interrupt the claw swipes
This backstep is considered a Dodge, and can be used to avoid attacks and trigger Matrix
If a Dodge is performed during a 3-Ping to interrupt it, Dusk Fluorescence and its precise variant still have an opportunity to be cast immediately afterwards
Dusk Fluorescence, Wolfspirit Release, and Feral's QTE will restore HP for Feral and nearby allies, while granting them the Lightning DMG buff from Lightning Surge for 8 seconds
The Signature Energy gain from Wolfspirit Release is large, and allows for multiple Signature Moves in the same rotation with the Cottie 2-piece set
Red Orb 3-Pings should be prioritized over the other two colors, as they have the highest damage, a gathering effect, and the fastest animation for giving access to Dusk Fluorescence
The Dusk Fluorescence follow-up from Blue Orb 3-Pings has a long animation, and can be canceled out of just for the Wolfspirit Points if prioritizing time
