Ganyu talents

Normal AttackLiutian Archery
Normal Attack
Performs up to 6 consecutive shots with a bow.

Charged Attack
Performs a more precise Aimed Shot with increased DMG.
While aiming, an icy aura will accumulate on the arrowhead before the arrow is fired. Has different effects based on how long the energy has been charged:
·Charge Level 1: Fires off an icy arrow that deals Cryo DMG.
·Charge Level 2: Fires off a Frostflake Arrow that deals Cryo DMG. The Frostflake Arrow blooms after hitting its target, dealing AoE Cryo DMG.

Plunging Attack
Fires off a shower of arrows in mid-air before falling and striking the ground, dealing AoE DMG upon impact.
Elemental SkillTrail of the Qilin
Leaving a single Ice Lotus behind, Ganyu dashes backward, shunning all impurity and dealing AoE Cryo DMG.

Ice Lotus
·Continuously taunts surrounding opponents, attracting them to attack it.
·Endurance scales based on Ganyu's Max HP.
·Blooms profusely when destroyed or once its duration ends, dealing AoE Cryo DMG.

"You saw me, you say? You must be mistaken. I was working overtime then."
Elemental BurstCelestial Shower
Coalesces atmospheric frost and snow to summon a Sacred Cryo Pearl that exorcises evil.
During its ability duration, the Sacred Cryo Pearl will continuously rain down shards of ice, striking opponents within an AoE and dealing Cryo DMG.

Ganyu can bring down sweet rains as a matter of course. But against demons and heretics, they become bitter, freezing snow.
