Press: Accumulating the power of lightning, Beidou swings her blade forward fiercely, dealing Electro Damage. Hold: Lifts her weapon up as a shield. Max Damage absorbed scales off Beidou’s Max HP. Attacks using the energy stored within the greatsword upon release or once this ability’s duration expires, dealing Electro Damage.
