The First Descendant – Ines Raya
Belonging to H.O.U.N.D with Keelan, Ines specializes in special missions related to the Void Vessel. She emits weaponizable levels of electrical energy out of her body to bind enemies with a constant stream of lightning.
- Passive Skill: Plasma Oscillation: Deal greater damage to enemies inflicted with Conductor. Landing a Firearm or Skill Critical Hit on an enemy inflicted with Conductor also deals further damage to nearby enemies.
- Active Skill 1: Chain Lightning: Strike enemies with a chain of lightning. The lightning bolts bounce between enemies and deal damage before returning to Ines.
- Active Skill 2: Lightning Conductor: Inflict an electric shock through current coils on enemies within range.
- Active Skill 3: Discharge: Consume plasma and gather the converted electrical current in her fist, releasing it as a powerful blast in front of her.
- Active Skill 4: Snare Hunter: Throw a plasma acceleration coil forward. The plasma acceleration coil creates a Thunder Snare at the location it hits, dealing damage to nearby enemies for a certain period and inflicts an electric shock through current coils on enemies within range at regular intervals.
