ABILITIES PRIORITY

HIGHEST PRIORITY

Canopy Hunter

Kinich uses his big-game hunting skills to either move swiftly or attack his opponent. When there is an opponent or object that can be attacked nearby, he will attach a grappling hook to the target and enter Nightsoul's Blessing with 0 Nightsoul points. If neither is nearby, he fires a grappling hook forward and swings in mid-air, and this Skill's CD is decreased by 60%. This skill can be Held to release.

SECOND PRIORITY

Almighty Dragonlord

Unleashes the power of the Almighty Dragonlord, K'uhul Ajaw (on a limited, conditional, restricted, contractual, partial, temporary basis), dealing Nightsoul-aligned AoE Dendro DMG. Ajaw will unleash his Dragon Breath at intervals, dealing Nightsoul-aligned AoE Dendro DMG. If Kinich is in Nightsoul's Blessing when this is used, this Blessing's duration is extended by 1.7s.

LOWEST PRIORITY

Nightsun Style

Normal Attack Performs up to 3 rapid strikes. After using his Elemental Skill "Canopy Hunter: Riding High"'s mid-air swing, he can perform a Normal Attack in mid-air before landing. Charged Attack Consumes a certain amount of Stamina to spin and throw his Claymore forward to attack opponents.

PASSIVE TALENTS

PASSIVE

Price of Desolation

PASSIVE

Flame Spirit Pact

After a nearby party member triggers a Nightsoul Burst, Kinich will gain 1 stack of Hunter's Experience that lasts 15s. Max 2 stacks.
