Xingqiu Skills

Guhua Style

Guhua Sword: Fatal Rainscreen

"Easier to slay a rain dragon than to sever the rain."

Xingqiu performs twin strikes with his sword, dealing Hydro DMG. At the same time, this ability creates the maximum number of Rain Swords, which will orbit your active character.
The Rain Swords have the following properties:
·When a character takes DMG, the Rain Sword will shatter, reducing the amount of DMG taken.
·Increases the character's resistance to interruption.

20% of Xingqiu's Hydro DMG Bonus will be converted to additional DMG Reduction for the Rain Swords.

The maximum amount of additional DMG Reduction that can be gained this way is 24%.
The initial maximum number of Rain Swords is 3.
Using this ability applies the Wet status onto the character.

Guhua Sword: Raincutter

The "Way of the Rain Cutter" is one of the esoteric secret techniques of the Guhua Sect.

Initiate Rainbow Bladework and fight using an illusory sword rain, while creating the maximum number of Rain Swords.
