A slow starter that rapidly builds Poise through Serpent Arm, aims for around 20 Poise, then strikes with enhanced skills, especially single-Coin S3 Serpentshear Puncturing Arm. Attacking enemies with Rupture accelerates Poise generation, so Rupture-applying allies speed up his start.
Core Mechanics
Serpent Arm (max 3): At Turn End, he gains 3 Poise and +2 Poise Count for the next turn, and Serpent Arm itself decreases by 1. While he has Serpent Arm, using a basic attack skill grants 5 Poise if the target has Rupture. He obtains it at Combat Start of the Defense skill Reversal Kick (3 Serpent Arm next turn), on using S3 (3 Serpent Arm), and on Coin Ⅲ Critical Hit of S2 Blindsiding Cleave (1 Serpent Arm).
Aim for 20 Poise: Poise gives a (5 × Potency)% Critical chance, so 20 guarantees Critical Hits. S1 Snake Fang and S2 gain +1 Coin Power per 10 combined Poise and target's Rupture Potency (up to 2). S3 gains +10% damage per point of that total (up to 200%).
S3: 1 Coin with Clash Power 8–22. With Serpent Arm, +1 Coin Power per 5 of that total (up to 6) and +100% Critical damage (+75% at lower Uptie). On Clash Win, gains 5 Poise if the target has at least 5 Rupture. +2 Rupture Count on Critical Hit.
Maintaining Poise Count: S1 adds +2 Poise Count on use (+1 at lower Uptie). S2 adds +2 Poise Count and +2 Rupture Count on Clash Win (+1 each at lower Uptie). At 30 or more Poise, Coin Ⅲ of S2 spends 10 Poise to reuse the Coin once.
Deathrite【Venom】: Inflicted by Coin Ⅲ of S2 and by S3 (base value 5). The combat passive Heishou Mutation [Si] (5 Gluttony Owned; unlocked at Uptie Ⅱ) gives +5% damage per Serpent Arm, up to 15%, if the target has Deathrite【Venom】. The benefit is modest for this Identity.
How to Use
Early on, gain Serpent Arm with his Defense skill or S3. His Defense skill is a Clashable Guard with Clash Power 3–13, and with 3 Stagger Thresholds he is fragile, so do not overuse it. Hit enemies with Rupture to stack Serpent Arm's 5 Poise, growing it to around 20. Prioritize S1 for one-sided attacks, keeping Count up with its on-use Poise Count increase. Once Poise has built up, aim for big damage with S3. Short battles tend to end before Poise builds, so he shows his true strength in longer fights.
