Full event details

A tactical exosuit developed just before the fight with θ broke out. It boosts Yao's combat strength in short bursts, revealing a more energetic and diligent side. The asymmetry and openwork design give her a more spirited look.

Weapon: SMG
Element: Electric
Role: Skill Support

Standard Skill: Onslaught of Light and Dark

Yao launches a projectile towards an enemy that explodes, dealing AoE damage and generating U-Energy.

When enhanced by her ultimate, Yao instead launches multiple projectiles that also knock back enemies hit.

Editor's note: I don't know how her ultimate enhances this, and the initial preview doesn't say either. I'd assume it comes from Neuronics or something.

Support Skill: Night's Edge

Yao creates [Spark Tethers] that link to up to three enemies, dealing damage over time and generating U-Energy. Linked enemies take increased damage from critical hits.

Ultimate Skill: Saving Light

Yao launches herself into the air and deploys a [Shimmering Stardome], increasing the attack of all allies on the field based on Yao's defense. At the same time, all [Spark Tethers] are recalled, being replaced with enhanced [Spark Tethers]. These have their effects scale off of Yao's ultimate skill instead of her support skill. If a linked enemy dies, the link will automatically retarget to a new enemy.

While [Shimmering Stardome] is active, U-Energy cannot be generated. [Shimmering Stardome] consumes U-Energy over time, and will end its duration early if there is insufficient U-Energy.

Deiwos Passive: Not Yet Dusk

When equipped with an Electric weapon, increase own defense. This effect is increased with Alignment Index.
