Kinich Talents

Normal Attack
Nightsun Style
Normal Attack Performs up to 3 rapid strikes. After using his Elemental Skill
"Canopy Hunter: Riding High"'s mid-air swing, he can perform a Normal Attack in
mid-air before landing. Charged Attack Consumes a certain amount to spin and throw
his Claymore forward to attack opponents. Plunging Attack Plunges from mid-air to
strike the ground below, damaging opponents along the path and dealing AoE DMG upon
impact.

Elemental Skill
Canopy Hunter: Riding High
Kinich uses his big-game hunting skills to either move swiftly or attack his
opponent. When there is an opponent or object that can be attacked nearby, he will
attach a grappling hook to the target and enter Nightsoul's Blessing with 0
Nightsoul points. If neither is nearby, he fires a grappling hook forward and swings
in mid-air, and this Skill's CD is decreased by 60%. This skill can be Held to
release. When it is Held, Kinich can aim the grappling hook. Nightsoul's Blessing:
Kinich Kinich's Nightsoul's Blessing lasts 10s and generates 2 Nightsoul points
every second. In this state, Kinich will hook onto a nearby opponent and perform a
variable attack: When using a Normal Attack, Kinich will fire Loop Shots as he loops
around the grappled target based on his current movement direction, dealing
Nightsoul-aligned Dendro DMG and generating 3 Nightsoul
points. Loop Shot DMG is considered Elemental Skill DMG. When Nightsoul points are
at max, he can use the Elemental Skill "Scalespiker Cannon": Consume all Nightsoul
points to deal Nightsoul-aligned Dendro DMG. When
"Scalespiker Cannon" is Held, Kinich can aim this shot. After firing the Cannon,
Kinich will try to grapple to its target. While in Nightsoul's Blessing, after
grappling an opponent or firing "Scalespiker Cannon," a Blind Spot will be generated
next to the opponent. When Kinich enters this Blind Spot, it will disappear and he
will generate 4 Nightsoul points. If the grapple connection should snap due to
exceeding the maximum distance or some other reason, using a Normal Attack will
establish a new connection with a nearby opponent before performing Loop Shots.

Elemental Burst
Hail to the Almighty Dragonlord
Unleashes the power of the Almighty Dragonlord, K'uhul Ajaw (on a limited,
conditional, restricted, contractual, partial, temporary basis), dealing
Nightsoul-aligned AoE Dendro DMG. Ajaw will unleash his
Dragon Breath at intervals, dealing Nightsoul-aligned AoE
Dendro DMG. If Kinich is in Nightsoul's Blessing when this is used, this
Blessing's duration is extended by 1.7s.
Kinich Passives

Ascension 1
The Price of Desolation
When Kinich is in Nightsoul's Blessing state, opponents hit by his Elemental Skill
will enter the Desolation state, and when affected by Burning or Burgeon reaction
DMG, they will restore 7 Nightsoul points to him. Nightsoul points can be gained
this way once every 0.8s. The Desolation state will persist until this instance of
Kinich's Nightsoul's Blessing state ends.

Ascension 4
Flame Spirit Pact
After a nearby party member triggers a Nightsoul Burst, Kinich will gain 1 stack of
Hunter's Experience that lasts 15s. Max 2 stacks. When Kinich uses Canopy Hunter:
Riding High's Scalespiker Cannon, all stacks of Hunter's Experience will be
consumed, with each stack consumed increasing the DMG dealt by this Cannon shot by
320% of Kinich's ATK.

Passive
Swift Envoy
While in an area with Phlogiston Mechanics within Natlan, interacting with some
harvestable items will increase your own party members' Movement SPD by 15% for 10s.
Additionally, the location of nearby resources unique to Natlan will appear on your
mini-map.

Passive
Repaid in Full
When Kinich is in the air following Canopy Hunter: Riding High's mid-air swing, he
can consume 10 Phlogiston points to perform another mid-air swing. While in an area
with Phlogiston Mechanics within Natlan, he can use Nightsoul Transmission: Kinich.
When the current active character is sprinting, in movement states that result from
specific Talents, or in the air, when you switch to Kinich: Kinich will perform one
of the following actions depending on the conditions met: When facing a Coilgrass
Sigil that can be interacted with: He will fire a grappling hook towards it to move;
When there are nearby opponents and you are in combat: Kinich will use Canopy
Hunter: Riding High in the direction of the opponents; Otherwise, Kinich will fire a
grappling hook and swing, prioritizing valid Coilgrass Sigils as grapple targets.
Nightsoul Transmission can be triggered once every 10s by your own party. When
interacting with Coilgrass Sigils and other items that Yumkasaurs can interact with,
"Canopy Hunter: Riding High" will be converted to "Yumkasaur Mimesis," which causes
interactions with such items to follow rules applicable to Yumkasaurs, and which
will not put Canopy Hunter: Riding High on CD.
