Hints

Strengths added by majky 0 0
  • Power Gain
    • Air-Walker gains Power over time for each Power Cosmic Buff he has. At the start of the quest he only has 1 Power Cosmic, so the Power gained is relatively small. But after winning some fights and gaining additional Power Cosmic, the Power gained becomes very noticeable. Additionally, he significantly increases the potency of any Power Gain effects he has while charging a Heavy Attack, so he can use that to rapidly gain power and launch a Special Attack right out of the Heavy Charge.
  • Fighting Power Control Opponents
    • Air-Walker’s main objective in fights is to build Dark Tide on the Opponent. He automatically applies Dark Tide whenever he is affected by a Power Lock, Drain, or Burn effect, so it will have an easier time building Dark Tide and converting it into a Passive against Opponents with these abilities.
Weaknesses added by majky 0 0
  • Nullify
    • The number of Dark Tides Air-Walker applies is largely dependent on the number of Buffs he has. He’s also somewhat dependent on the Power Cosmic Buff to gain Power, since he has a decreased Offensive Combat Power Rate. Nullifying his buffs will reduce the number of Dark Tides he applies, and decrease the amount of Power he gains.
  • Debuff Purification
    • By default, Dark Tides are Debuffs that last indefinitely. Opponents will remove them whenever they gain a Bar of Power, but Champions who Purify Debuffs have an additional avenue to remove them. It’s important to note that once 10 Dark Tide Debuffs build up and they are converted into a Passive, they can no longer be removed by a Purify, so make sure you act fast!

Dark Tide
Passive
Cross Fight - Max 1
When the Opponent has 10 Dark Tide Debuffs, they are combined into a Passive that lasts for the rest of the fight and the next 2 fights they participate in.
The Dark Tide Passive counts as 10 Dark Tide Debuffs for Air-Walker's abilities, and also gains additional effects based on the Opponent’s Class.
If the Opponent has a Dark Tide Passive, Air-Walker’s fourth Light Hit refreshes 2 Armor Break Debuff(s) on them.
Armor Break
Armor Break breaks the Armor of Armored Champions, preventing Armor from preventing damage. Armor Break is an effective counter to Armored Champions.

Persistent Buff - Max 3

Special Attack 3 can only be used if Air-Walker has 3 Power Cosmic Buffs or is Defending.
