Core
Key of Sublimation
Engine Charge — Any 3-Ping + Basic Attacks
After using a 3-Ping, tap Basic Attack repeatedly to charge the core gauge’s sublimation energy. When you stop attacking, Noan will perform Exceed Deduction based on the color Signal Orb used. Exceed Deduction’s DMG is based on the amount of sublimation energy charged and Noan’s current Gear level.
Afterwards, sublimation energy will reset to 0 and the previous progress will be recorded on the target speed bar below it.
— Exceed Deduction deals 150%/300%/450%/600% Lightning DMG based on the current Gear level.
— Each Basic Attack boosts the base DMG of Exceed Deduction by 15%.
Exceed Deduction — Use Basic Attacks to trigger Exceed Deduction
When Exceed Deduction is triggered, if the progress of sublimation energy is greater than the target speed bar, Gear level will increase by 1.
Sublimation Strike — 3 Gears + Trigger Exceed Deduction
If Exceed Deduction is triggered with the maximum Gear level, Sublimation Strike will be used instead and deal increased DMG. Afterwards, target speed and Gears will be reset to 0.
