Understand Lion's Roar
Useful when…
- Sword builds that attack opponents affected by Pyro or Electro
- Combat where opponents can be affected by one of those elements
Conditional damage bonus
Lion's Roar increases damage against opponents affected by Pyro or Electro. The bonus is 20% at Refinement 1 and 36% at Refinement 5. The condition applies to the opponent when damage is dealt.
ATK stat and elemental condition
The weapon has ATK as its secondary stat. Its damage bonus requires the opponent to be affected by Pyro or Electro; the effect description does not specify a separate trigger or duration.
Upgrade costs
Weapon ascension is listed from stage 0 through stage 6, with example costs for stages 0–1, 3–4, and 5–6. Refinement is listed from rank 1 to rank 5 and uses a Lion's Roar R1 copy and Mora in the example steps. The passive's stated damage bonus increases from 20% at R1 to 36% at R5.
Other sword effects
Amenoma Kageuchi grants Succession Seeds after Elemental Skills and restores Energy after a Burst consumes them. Aquila Favonia has Physical DMG Bonus as its secondary stat and an effect triggered by taking damage that restores HP and damages nearby opponents.
Limitations and tradeoffs
- The damage bonus requires opponents to be affected by Pyro or Electro.
- Refinement consumes another copy, as shown in the listed refinement costs.
Common mistakes to avoid
- Assuming the passive applies when opponents are not affected by Pyro or Electro.
- Treating the conditional damage bonus as unconditional.
