Moze marks a target as Prey and inflicts his Attack as Lightning DMG to gain nine points of Charge. However, in the absence of other characters on the battlefield, Moze cannons use his Skill and dispels the Prey state.

Upon activating this ability Moze deals massive Lightning DMG to an enemy and launches his Talent’s follow-up attack against the target. If the opponent is defeated before activating the follow-up, the follower of The Hunt Path will hit a random target.

Moze’s Talent enables him to enter the Departed state. After allies attack the Prey, Moze deals an instance of Lightning DMG to them, consuming a Charge point. Upon burning three points, he launches a follow-up attack on the Prey dealing powerful Lightning DMG.

Once all the charges are consumed, the target will be dispelled from the Prey state, and the tally of points resets.

Note: Enemies cannot target Moze while he is in the Departed state.


Technique
