Press Rushes forward together with a Talisman Spirit, dealing Cryo DMG to opponents along the path. Hold Commands the Talisman Spirit to deal AoE Cryo DMG. Icy Quill When Normal, Charged, and Plunging Attacks, Elemental Skills, and Elemental Bursts deal Cryo DMG to opponents, the DMG dealt is increased based on Shenhe's current ATK.

When held rather than pressed, the Icy Quill's effect lasts longer and can be triggered more times.
