Icon	Name	Type
	Garyuu Bladework	Normal Attack
Normal Attack Perform up to 5 rapid strikes. Charged Attack Consumes a certain amount of Stamina to unleash 2 rapid sword strikes. Plunging Attack Plunges from mid-air to strike the ground below, damaging opponents along the path and dealing AoE DMG upon impact. If this Plunging Attack is triggered by Chihayaburu, it will be converted to Plunging Attack: Midare Ranzan. Plunging Attack: Midare Ranzan When a Plunging Attack is performed using the effects of the Elemental Skill Chihayaburu, Plunging Attack DMG is converted to Anemo DMG and will create a small wind tunnel via a secret blade technique that pulls in nearby objects and opponents. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 1-Hit DMG (%) 44.98 48.64 52.3 57.53 61.19 65.38 71.13 76.88 82.63 88.91 96.1 2-Hit DMG (%) 45.24 48.92 52.6 57.86 61.54 65.75 71.54 77.32 83.11 89.42 96.65 3-Hit DMG (%) 25.8 + 30.96 27.9 + 33.48 30 + 36 33 + 39.6 35.1 + 42.12 37.5 + 45 40.8 + 48.96 44.1 + 52.92 47.4 + 56.88 51 + 61.2 55.13 + 66.15 4-Hit DMG (%) 60.72 65.66 70.6 77.66 82.6 88.25 96.02 103.78 111.55 120.02 129.73 5-Hit DMG (%) 25.37×3 27.43×3 29.5×3 32.45×3 34.52×3 36.88×3 40.12×3 43.36×3 46.61×3 50.15×3 54.21×3 Charged Attack Charged Attack DMG (%) 43 + 74.65 46.5 + 80.72 50 + 86.8 55 + 95.48 58.5 + 101.56 62.5 + 108.5 68 + 118.05 73.5 + 127.6 79 + 137.14 85 + 147.56 91.88 + 159.5 Charged Attack Stamina Cost 20 Plunging Attack Plunge DMG (%) 81.83 88.49 95.16 104.67 111.33 118.94 129.41 139.88 150.35 161.76 173.18 Low Plunge DMG (%) 163.63 176.95 190.27 209.3 222.62 237.84 258.77 279.7 300.63 323.46 346.29 High Plunge DMG (%) 204.39 221.02 237.66 261.42 278.06 297.07 323.21 349.36 375.5 404.02 432.54 Media:Talent Garyuu Bladework Normal.ogv Normal Attack Media:Talent Garyuu Bladework Charged.ogv Charged Attack Media:Talent Garyuu Bladework Plunge.ogv Plunge Attack
	Chihayaburu	Elemental Skill
Unleashes a secret technique as fierce as the rushing wind that pulls objects and opponents towards Kazuha's current position before launching opponents within the AoE, dealing Anemo DMG and lifting Kazuha into the air on a rushing gust of wind. Within 10s of remaining airborne after casting Chihayaburu, Kazuha can unleash a powerful Plunging Attack known as Midare Ranzan. Press Can be used in mid-air. Hold Charges up before unleashing greater Anemo DMG over a larger AoE than Press Mode. Plunging Attack: Midare Ranzan When a Plunging Attack is performed using the effects of the Elemental Skill Chihayaburu, Plunging Attack DMG is converted to Anemo DMG. On landing, Kazuha creates a small wind tunnel via a secret blade technique that pulls in nearby objects and opponents. Midare Ranzan's DMG is considered Plunging Attack DMG. This skill generates 3 elemental particles when pressed and 4 when held, if it hits at least 1 target. The skill can be used mid-air to perform a double jump or while gliding, aiding in exploration. Moreover, the Elemental Skill icon will change after Kazuha is launched into the air. When Chihayaburu is cast, it will also make a slight beeping / chiming sound. Elemental Absorption With Kazuha's first passive Soumon Swordsmanship, this also has the power of Elemental Absorption. While airborne (if Kazuha has not yet Plunge Attacked or landed on the ground), a special wind will encircle Kazuha, indicating the Midare Ranzan effect, in the color of the absorbed element, if any. The element that will cause the absorption has its priorities: Pyro > Hydro > Electro > Cryo. If multiple elements came into contact with Chihayaburu, the element with the highest priority will be the one that is absorbed. This is also the same case for Kazuha's Elemental Burst, Kazuha Slash. For example, if Chihayaburu came into contact with multiple enemies affected by either Pyro or Electro, since Pyro has the higher priority, it will the one that causes the Elemental Absorption. The element that Kazuha is affected with can also be used as a source of absorption. Wind Tunnel Even though performing Plunging Attack after casting Chihayaburu can knock back enemies, the vacuum effects of Midare Ranzan can still pull and group them together. The Wind Tunnel created by Midare Ranzan will affect Aloy's Chillwater Bomblets Amber's Baron Bunny Klee's Jumpy Dumpty (Both the Bounce and the Mines) Sayu's Muji-Muji Daruma Xiangling's Guoba Midare Ranzan This Plunging Attack still counts as a Heavy Attack, thus making Chihayaburu an effective means of breaking Geo Shields, Ores and Geo Constructs. It will also trigger Shatter on Frozen Enemies. Unlike normal Plunging Attacks, Midare Ranzan does not have a minimum height requirement, meaning It can be performed even if Kazuha is extremely close to the ground. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 Press Skill DMG (%) 192 206.4 220.8 240 254.4 268.8 288 307.2 326.4 345.6 364.8 384 408 Press CD 6s Hold Skill DMG (%) 260.8 280.36 299.92 326 345.56 365.12 391.2 417.28 443.36 469.44 495.52 521.6 554.2 CD (hold) 9s Media:Talent Chihayaburu Press.ogv Press Media:Talent Chihayaburu Hold.ogv Hold Media:Talent Chihayaburu Midair.ogv Midair Media:Talent Chihayaburu Midare Ranzan Effect.ogv Midare Ranzan Effect Media:Talent Chihayaburu Midare Ranzan Plunge.ogv Plunging Attack: Midare Ranzan
	Kazuha Slash	Elemental Burst
The signature technique of Kazuha's self-styled bladework — a single slash that strikes with the force of the first winds of autumn, dealing AoE Anemo DMG. The blade's passage will leave behind a field named "Autumn Whirlwind" that periodically deals AoE Anemo DMG to opponents within its range. Elemental Absorption If Autumn Whirlwind comes into contact with Hydro/Pyro/Cryo/Electro, it will deal additional elemental DMG of that type. Elemental Absorption may only occur once per use. The element that will cause the absorption has its priorities: Pyro > Hydro > Electro > Cryo. If multiple elements came into contact with Kazuha Slash, the element with the highest priority will be the one that is absorbed. This is also the same case for Kazuha's Elemental Skill, Chihayaburu. For example, if Kazuha Slash came into contact with multiple enemies affected by either Pyro or Electro, since Pyro has the higher priority, it will be the one that causes the Elemental Absorption. The element that Kazuha is affected with can also be used for absorption. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 Slashing DMG (%) 262.4 282.08 301.76 328 347.68 367.36 393.6 419.84 446.08 472.32 498.56 524.8 557.6 DoT (%) 120 129 138 150 159 168 180 192 204 216 228 240 255 Additional Elemental DMG (%) 36 38.7 41.4 45 47.7 50.4 54 57.6 61.2 64.8 68.4 72 76.5 Duration 8s CD 15s Energy Cost 60 Media:Talent Kazuha Slash.ogv Without Elemental Absorption Media:Talent Kazuha Slash Absorption.ogv With Elemental Absorption (Pyro)
	Soumon Swordsmanship	1st Ascension Passive
If Chihayaburu comes into contact with Hydro/Pyro/Cryo/Electro when cast, Chihayaburu will absorb that element and if Plunging Attack: Midare Ranzan is used before the effect expires, it will deal an additional 200% ATK of the absorbed elemental type as DMG. This will be considered Plunging Attack DMG. Elemental Absorption may only occur once per use of Chihayaburu. Media:Talent Chihayaburu A4.ogv
	Poetics of Fuubutsu	4th Ascension Passive
Upon triggering a Swirl reaction, Kaedehara Kazuha will grant all party members a 0.04% Elemental DMG Bonus to the element absorbed by Swirl for every point of Elemental Mastery he has for 8s. Bonuses for different elements obtained through this method can co-exist.
	Cloud Strider	Utility Passive
Decreases sprinting Stamina consumption for your own party members by 20%. Not stackable with Passive Talents that provide the exact same effects.
