Shicoke Character Introduction
The new character we are discussing this time is a five-star ice attribute user who wields a single-handed sword. She possesses a unique skill mechanism, especially since her elemental burst does not require elemental energy but instead relies on a special resource called “Snake’s Cunning.” Her damage output is primarily divided into two methods: one through normal and charged attacks, and the other through her elemental burst.
Shicoke Gameplay Mechanics
As an ice element single-handed sword user, her skill mechanisms differ from other characters. Her elemental burst does not require elemental energy but instead consumes “Snake’s Cunning.” Her normal and charged attacks can enter the “Seven Flash” mode through her elemental skill, thereby performing enhanced attacks. Her elemental burst, on the other hand, consumes all available “Snake’s Cunning” to release, with damage increasing based on the amount consumed.
For more detailed information about her skills, please refer to the relevant skill introductions.
