Elemental Wave

Description

A skill that enhances Alchemy by using Elixirs to make the chosen element volatile. The elemental energy you use will be completely drained even if you use the skill only once. (Skills that can be enhanced: Heat Buster, Frozen Blast, Summon Golem, Shock, Life Drain)

Details

• Requires a Cylinder and Guard Cylinder equipped as well as all four Attribute Marbles completely filled in order to use.
• Consumes all 4 Attribute Marbles to enhance the effects of the next Shock, Frozen Blast, Summon Golem, Heat Buster, or Life Drain.
  • Shock: Increased damage, duration, and radius. Effect is changed to show thunder strikes above enemies.
  • Frozen Blast: Increased freezing chance and gains a 360° radius around the player. Animation and effect are changed to display a freezing gust of wind around the player.
  • Summon Golem: Summons a Shadow Golem, possessing the Taunt skill. Golem gains additional bonuses on top of base stats and Summon Golem bonuses, and has increased stat and skill bonuses proportional to Elemental Wave's rank.
  • Heat Buster: Hits 3 times with increased damage. Ignores the target's Protection when calculating critical rate. Explosion effect occurs thrice.
    • The extra hits may miss if the enemy Teleports.
  • Life Drain: Increased recovery and drain rate and extra knock-back damage. A lightning-like effect is added to the draining effect.
• Elemental Wave stays active once used until any of the skills listed above is loaded and fired or if the player switches weapons, even to another cylinder.
  • If the user takes damage during the animation of an enhanced Heat Buster or an enhanced Frozen Blast, or an enhanced Life Drain's knockback damage does not occur, Elemental Wave will remain active.
• Elemental Wave activation effect and skill enhancement effects are invisible if Mini Effects are enabled.
• Golden Time may be randomly learned when using Elemental Wave at Rank A or higher.

The interface as it appears when Elemental Wave is active. It is a lighter shade than it looks while it is empty/being filled.

The interface as it appears when filled by Golden Time.

• Appears upon equipping a Cylinder and Guard Cylinder. The gauges only appears when Elemental Wave is learned.
• Using Combat Alchemy Skills will fill two out of four meters of the Attribute Marbles. The table below shows what is affected.
  • The marbles only fill after the skill animation has completed. Canceling or getting interrupted during the skill's casting animation will not fill any marbles.

• The Attribute Marbles can still be filled if the Cylinder or Guard Cylinder is broken while equipped along side each other.
  • Both can not be broken at the same time.
• Golden Time can be used to fill the Marbles to 100%, but a skill must be used before Golden Time ends, otherwise the meters will be reverted to their previous percentages.
• Filling the Attribute Marbles by 50% will result in bonuses that affect the player.
  • These bonuses are applied even at Rank Novice Elemental Wave.
  • The Fire Marble grants Health, the Water Marble grants Mana, and the Earth Marble grants Stamina. These stats bonuses are scaled with Fire, Water, and Earth Alchemy Mastery respectively.
  • The Wind Marble reduces the cooldown of alchemy skills by a small percentage, which scales with Wind Alchemy Mastery.

• Filling all of the Attribute Marbles to 100% will allow the use of Elemental Wave. Doing so will empty the marbles and keep them empty until an applicable skill is used.
• Unequipping either cylinder will not reset the meters.
• Getting Knocked Unconscious, logging off, or changing channels will reset the meters.
• Enabling Lock Attribute Marbles will keep the UI locked in place.
