Diluc Skills
Diluc is slow but hits extremely hard and consistently due to his abilities.
Perform up to 4 consecutive strikes.
Charge Attack
Drains Stamina over time to perform continuous slashes. At the end of the sequence, perform a more powerful slash.
Plunge Attack
Plunges from mid-air to strike the ground, damaging opponents along the path and dealing AoE DMG upon impact.
Diluc’s Normal Attack performs up to 4 consecutive strikes with the 4th strike launching enemies. Holding the attack button constantly consumes Diluc’s stamina to launch swift consecutive attacks dealing increased physical damage to nearby enemies and unleashing an extra-powerful attack at the end that launches enemies.
Use this wisely to scatter enemy groups and defeat shielded foes. Unlocking the talent “Relentless” decreases Diluc’s charged attack stamina consumption and increases its maximum duration.
His elemental skill slashes enemies dealing Pyro damage. This can be used up to 3 times before going on cooldown. Keep in mind if you wait too long in between usage it will also go on cooldown. Because the cooldown timer also starts after the first hit is pressed, you can weave basic attacks in between each press of his elemental skill making it loop into itself consistently.
His elemental burst releases a flaming bird that does massive AoE Pyro damage. This also causes Diluc to gain access to a Pyro enhancement buff which gives him Pyro damage to his normal and charged attacks for a set duration.
Through Diluc’s passives, this can last 4 seconds longer than his base form and will give him a 20% increase in his Pyro damage. He is a master of main DPS that will have you shredding enemies down with the right pyro team composition.
