      • When a character's HP increases or decreases, it will be counted. When it reaches a total of 12, a shockwave will be unleashed at the character's position, dealing True DMG to nearby opponents and clearing the count. 1 such shockwave can be unleashed every 4s.
    • Phase II: Uncanny Moon
      • When off-field characters deal Elemental Skill DMG to an opponent, an Uncanny Mark will be placed upon that opponent.

When a character enters the field, the Uncanny Marks placed by that character on opponents will be removed.
