Perform up to 4 quick spear strikes.

Lunge forward, hitting enemies in your path.

Dive from the air, dealing AoE damage on impact.
Elemental Skill
Sacred Rite: Heron’s Sanctum
Candace’s fighting style is capable of warding off an entire tide of foes.
Tap
Charges forward with her shield, dealing Hydro DMG to enemies in her path.
Hold
Blocks incoming attacks with her shield, absorbing damage based on her Max HP. She absorbs Hydro DMG 250% more effectively. The shield lasts until the skill is released or broken. After charging for a short time, Candace performs a leaping strike, dealing Hydro DMG to enemies in front of her when the skill ends.
Elemental Burst
Sacred Rite: Wagtail’s Tide
Candace raises her weapon, calling upon a divine blessing that deals AoE Hydro DMG based on her Max HP. This also applies the Prayer of the Crimson Crown to the active character.
Prayer of the Crimson Crown
Increases Elemental DMG dealt by Normal Attacks. When a character enters the field, a rippling wave of Hydro DMG hits nearby enemies. The waves have a limited number of uses during the skill’s duration. Sword, Claymore, and Polearm users gain Hydro Infusion. This ancient rite, passed down through Candace’s clan, channels the lost power of old faiths, protecting the heirs of a forgotten realm.
