Bond of Life

Bond of Life is a mechanic that prevents healing, applied to a character by Fatui Operatives, The Knave, and some Weapon effects. Certain characters like Arlecchino and Clorinde can also apply the Bond of Life to themselves via their talents.

While Bond of Life is active, it absorbs healing for the character based on its base value and prevents the character from being healed, and clears after healing equal to its value is obtained or when the player visits a Statue of The Seven. After Bond of Life is cleared, certain additional effects may be applied depending on the source.

The max value of Bond of Life is 200% of a character's Max HP. The Bond of Life will last 10 minutes if not cleared by healing or other methods. The Bond of Life is represented by a red bar over the character's HP bar. If the current Bond of Life value is X%, it will take up X/2% of the HP bar. For example, if a character has 100% Bond of Life, it will be represented by a red bar taking 50% of the HP bar.

If not manually cleared, Bond of Life will automatically clear once 600 seconds (10 minutes) have passed since its application.

Talent	Description	Type
Detailed Diagnosis, Thorough Treatment Detailed Diagnosis, Thorough Treatment Sigewinne	When Sigewinne performs healing, the amount healed for this instance is increased based on the total current value of the Bonds of Life on all party members: For each 1,000 HP worth of Bonds of Life, the outgoing healing is increased by 3%. The amount of healing provided can be increased by up to 30% in this way.	4th Ascension Passive
Hunter's Vigil Hunter's Vigil Clorinde	Preparing her pistolet, she enters the "Night Vigil" state, using steel and shot together. In this state, Clorinde's Normal Attacks will be transformed into "Swift Hunt" pistolet attacks, and the DMG dealt is converted into Electro DMG that cannot be overridden by infusions, and she will be unable to use Charged Attacks. Using her Elemental Skill will transform it into "Impale the Night": Perform a lunging attack, dealing Electro DMG. The DMG done through the aforementioned method is considered Normal Attack DMG. Swift Hunt When her Bond of Life is equal to or greater than 100% of her max HP: Performs a pistolet shot. When her Bond of Life is less than 100%, firing her pistolet will grant her Bond of Life, with the amount gained based on her max HP. The shots she fires can pierce opponents, and DMG dealt to opponents in their path is increased. Impale the Night The current percentage value of Clorinde's Bond of Life determines its effect: When the Bond of Life value is 0%, perform a normal lunging strike; When the Bond of Life value is less than 100% of her max HP, Clorinde is healed based on the Bond of Life value, and the AoE of the lunging attack and the DMG dealt is increased; When the value of the Bond of Life is equal to or greater than 100% of her max HP, use Impale the Night: Pact. The healing multiplier is increased, and the AoE and DMG dealt by the lunge is increased even further. In addition, when Clorinde is in the Night Vigil state, healing effects other than Impale the Night will not take effect and will instead be converted into a Bond of Life that is a percentage of the healing that would have been received. Clorinde will exit the "Night Vigil" state when she leaves the field. Arkhe: Ousia Periodically, when Clorinde's Swift Hunt shots strike opponents, she will summon a Surging Blade at the position hit that deals Ousia-aligned Electro DMG.	Elemental Skill
Invitation to a Beheading Invitation to a Beheading Arlecchino	Normal Attack Performs up to 6 consecutive spear strikes. Charged Attack Consumes a fixed amount of Stamina, dashing toward a nearby opponent and cleaving once. Continuously holding this button will cause Arlecchino to consume Stamina and engage in up to 5s of high-speed movement. Plunging Attack Plunges from mid-air to strike the ground below, damaging opponents along the path and dealing AoE DMG upon impact. Masque of the Red Death When Arlecchino has a Bond of Life equal to or greater than 30% of her Max HP, she will enter the "Masque of the Red Death" state, where her Normal, Charged, and Plunging Attacks will be converted to deal Pyro DMG. This cannot be overridden. When in the "Masque of the Red Death" state, Arlecchino's Normal Attacks will deal extra DMG to opponents on hit that scales off her ATK multiplied by a certain ratio of her current Bond of Life percentage. This will consume 7.5% of said current Bond of Life. Her Bond of Life can be consumed this way every 0.03s. When her Bond of Life is consumed in this manner, All Is Ash's CD will decrease by 0.8s.	Normal Attack
Rebound Hydrotherapy Rebound Hydrotherapy Sigewinne	Blows a Bolstering Bubblebalm that can stimulate blood flow and help patients drift off to sleep using a bubblegun specially made in the Fortress of Meropide. Bolstering Bubblebalms will bounce between nearby opponents, dealing Hydro DMG based on Sigewinne's max HP to opponents it hits. When it bounces, it will restore HP to all nearby party members except Sigewinne herself. The amount healed is based on Sigewinne's max HP. After bouncing 5 times, the Bolstering Bubblebalm will disappear and restore HP to Sigewinne based on her max HP value. When no opponents are present, the Bolstering Bubblebalm will bounce nearby. Only one Bolstering Bubblebalm created by a Sigewinne may exist at once. When Held, the Bolstering Bubblebalm can be boosted to an even bigger size. Hold Enter Aiming Mode to begin blowing an even bigger, even more breathtaking Bolstering Bubblebalm! The Bolstering Bubblebalm will grow bigger the longer the skill is Held, until it grows up to two tiers in size. Each tier it grows increases its DMG by 5% and healing by 5%. When a Bolstering Bubblebalm bounces, it will drop down a tier in size, until it returns to being a normal Bolstering Bubblebalm. After weaker opponents are hit by big Bolstering Bubblebalms, they will be imprisoned and will be unable to move. In addition, 2 Sourcewater Droplets will be created near Sigewinne when she uses this Skill. Each Sourcewater Droplet Sigewinne collects will grant her a Bond of Life worth 10% of her Max HP. When Sigewinne's Bond of Life is cleared, she regains 1 Elemental Energy for every 2,000 HP worth of the Bond of Life that was cleared. Sigewinne can regain up to 5 Elemental Energy in this way. Arkhe: Ousia Bolstering Bubblebalms periodically call down a Surging Blade on the position they hit, dealing Ousia-aligned Hydro DMG based on Sigewinne's max HP.	Elemental Skill
