Hu Tao's Secret Spear technique is based on several rules, the first of which is: "The spear opens the path to the afterlife, and the butterflies bridge this world and the next."
Guide to Afterlife is Hu Tao's Elemental Skill.
Gameplay Notes[]
- When a converted attack hits at least one enemy, it generates 2.5 Elemental Particles.
- This particle generation has a cooldown of ~5 seconds.
- Therefore, it can generate a total of 4–6 Elemental Particles through its whole duration.
- Converted Plunging Attacks do not generate particles.
- While Paramita Papilio State is active, Hu Tao doesn't step back before charging forward. This makes her Charged Attacks under this state faster than normal.
- This skill's activation produces a damageless 0U Pyro attack around Hu Tao.
- No HP will be consumed if Hu Tao has exactly 1 HP left when activating the skill.
- The Paramita Papilio State does not expire during the animation of a Charged Attack.
