Sacred Rite: Heron's Sanctum
Sacred Rite: Heron's Sanctum

Candace's fighting style is capable of warding off an entire tide of foes.

Tap

Rushes forward with her shield, dealing Hydro DMG to opponents in front of her.

Hold

Raises her shield to block incoming attacks from nearby opponents, forming a barrier that absorbs DMG based on her Max HP and absorbs Hydro DMG 250% more effectively. This barrier lasts until the Elemental Skill is unleashed.

After holding for a certain period of time, Candace will finish charging, and when the skill button is released, the skill duration expires, or when the barrier is broken, she will perform a leaping strike that deals Hydro DMG to opponents in front of her.

The oath of the guardians is more stalwart yet than the shields they inherit.

Sacred Rite: Wagtail's Tide
Sacred Rite: Wagtail's Tide

Raising her weapon on high, Candace calls upon a divine blessing that deals AoE Hydro DMG based on her Max HP and continuously confers the Prayer of the Crimson Crown on your active character.

Prayer of the Crimson Crown

This effect has the following properties:

·Characters deal increased Elemental DMG with their Normal Attacks.

·Whenever a character takes the field, they will unleash a rippling wave of water that deals Hydro DMG to nearby opponents. There is a limited number of waves that can be triggered in the duration of this skill.

·Sword, Claymore, and Polearm-wielding characters under this effect will obtain a Hydro Infusion.

This secret rite has been passed down through Candace's clan from generation to generation. Though the old faiths have become lost over the years, the sands still protect the heirs of the ancient realm.
