NEW SHIKIGAMI PREVIEW: LORD ARAKAWA
The fate of Arakawa will be influenced by me.
As the boss of Arakawa, Lord Arakawa can keep creating water balls in the battlefield and control the water balls with demon force to deal damage to enemies. Besides, he can also summon a fish strike from the water to deal damage and control enemies. Through his Ultimate Ability: Flowing Stream, Lord Arakawa can flow through the battlefield with ease to find a dominant position.
Natural Passive: Empowering Flow
Passive trigger: Every time after Lord Arakawa uses an ability, the range of his next basic attack will be increased and he will deal extra magic damage and form a water ball behind the target. If the basic attack hits an enemy shikigami, his Surge Power will be restored.
Ability 1: Passing Tide
Lord Arakawa releases 3 water balls in the specified direction, dealing magic damage to enemies in their path, any water balls touched will be pushed to the endpoint.
Ability 2: Flow Force
Lord Arakawa recovers all water balls. Water balls will deal magic damage to enemies in their path. Each water ball will restore HP for him. If waters ball hits enemy shikigami, HP restored will be increased.
Ability 3: Fish Strike
Lord Arakawa summons a Fish Strike to the specified position. The fish will deal magic damage and inflict a Slow effect to enemies within range when jumping out. Enemies hit by the fish will be dealt magic damage and inflicted with a Stun effect and the fish will form into a water ball.
Ultimate Ability: Flowing Stream
Lord Arakawa charges toward the specified position, dealing magic damage to enemies along the way while forming a water ball at both the start and end points.
