Aeromancer Overview

Introduction

Aeromancer possesses two distinct sets of skills: Umbrella skills and Weather skills. Depending on your chosen engraving, your skillset will vary accordingly. As a solid and consistent DPS class with impressive burst potential, aeromancer offers two strong engravings, each with its own unique playstyle that is easy to understand.

Umbrella skills are characterized by their aqua color and involve physical attacks using the umbrella. These skills are primarily utilized by . On the other hand, Weather skills are multi-colored and resemble spell-like attacks that Aeromancer casts. These skills are predominantly employed by .

Aeromancer's gimmick revolves around Sun Shower, and both engravings incorporate this aspect. In the following section, we will delve further into this mechanic.

Class mechanics

Sun Shower serves as the defining aspect of Aeromancer's class identity, and its functionality varies depending on the chosen engraving. Once the Raindrop gauge is fully filled, activating Sun Shower brings about changes to your normal attack and enhances your Movement skill, transforming it into a combo skill. Furthermore, an area AoE is created around Aeromancer, inflicting continuous tick damage upon enemies within the AoE while reducing the damage they deal to Aeromancer and her allies. It's important to note that Sun Shower's effectiveness is not influenced by the spec stat.

When utilizing the Windfury engraving, the Sun Shower AoE becomes smaller, and the rate at which the gauge is consumed increases by 50%. In this configuration, Sunshower no longer reduces the damage enemies inflict upon allies. Instead, it grants a 12% attack and movement speed buff to allies who are positioned within the AoE. Furthermore, utilizing an Umbrella skill within a 3-second timeframe after another Umbrella skill will restore 12% of your maximum Raindrop gauge.

With the Drizzle engraving active, the effectiveness of Weather damage is amplified by 7/15/30%. Additionally, the consumption of the gauge is reduced by 50%, allowing for more sustained use of Aeromancer's abilities.
