Mavuika's Abilities and Combat Style

Mavuika is a 5-star Pyro Claymore user with a unique kit, including a combat-ready mount!

• Normal Attack: Flames Weave Life: Four consecutive strikes. Charged attacks consume stamina for a powerful blow. Plunging attacks deal AoE damage.
• Elemental Skill: The Named Moment: Summons All-Fire Armaments, replenishing Nightsoul points. Entering Nightsoul’s Blessing state enhances Pyro DMG. The skill has two modes: a tap for summoning Rings of Searing Radiance, and a hold to summon the Flamestrider mount for both combat and aerial mobility.
• Elemental Burst: Hour of Burning Skies: Instead of Energy, this ult relies on Fighting Spirit (50% minimum). Fighting Spirit is gained when party members use Nightsoul points or perform normal attacks (1.5 Fighting Spirit every 0.1 seconds). The Burst unleashes a powerful Sunfell Slice, dealing AoE Pyro DMG and activating the Crucible of Death and Life state. This state boosts interruption resistance and enhances Flamestrider attack power based on Fighting Spirit.

• C4: The Leader’s Resolve: Improves the "Kiongozi" passive talent, preventing DMG decay after using the Burst.
