Elemental Skill
Icy Paws

Fires an Icy Paw that deals Cryo DMG to opponents and forms a shield on hit.

The shield's DMG Absorption scales based on Diona's Max HP, and its duration scales off the number of Icy Paws that hit their target.

Press

Rapidly fires off 2 Icy Paws.

Hold

Dashes back quickly before firing 5 Icy Paws.

The shield created by a Hold attack will gain a 75% DMG Absorption Bonus.

The shield has a 250% Cryo DMG Absorption Bonus, and will cause your active character to become affected by Cryo at the point of formation for a short duration.

When she first started bartending, Diona found that no matter how much ice she put in her cocktails, it would never do a drunkard any harm. That all changed when she received her Vision — now she can form ice cold enough to cause severe brainfreeze. Five out of five stars!

Elemental Burst
Signature Mix

Tosses out a special cold brew that deals AoE Cryo DMG and creates a Drunken Mist in an AoE.

Drunken Mist

·Deals continuous Cryo DMG to opponents within the AoE.

·Continuously regenerates the HP of characters within the AoE.

A horrific mix that even Diona considers inhumane. The horrifying foretaste should be left for one's opponents. It has a crisp aftertaste, but unfortunately, one can only feel it on one's nose and skin.
