Trait

Overtone Series

After using a status skill, the enemy gains the effect of the [Noisy] skill for 3 turns.

Recommended Skill Sets

Disruption Buff Style

Playstyle

Frequently use 0-energy status skills to trigger traits for enemy energy disruption, while boosting self Magic Attack, use Water Cannon for sustained output.

Why this set works

Utilize Provoke and Salt Bath, two 0-energy status skills, to frequently trigger trait and disrupt enemies. Moisturize provides Magic Attack boost, and Water Cannon as a scaling main output becomes cheaper over time. This build balances disruption, buffs, output, and endurance, making it the most comprehensive moveset for Haor Fish.

Provoke

Why pick this skill

Core disruption skill. 0 energy cost use triggers trait [Overtone Series], inflicting [Noise] on enemy (+3 energy cost), greatly limiting enemy skill cycles, especially countering high-energy cost skill systems.

Moisture

Why pick this skill

Core buff skill. 0 energy cost for massive +190% Magic Attack boost. Combined with trait disruption triggers, foundation for Haor's damage output.

Water Cannon

Why pick this skill

Main DPS skill, 110 power Water-type Special Attack, permanently reduces Energy cost by 1 per use, grows stronger over time, considerable damage with Moisture's Special Attack boost.

Saltwater Bath

Why pick this skill

0 Energy gain All Skill Energy Cost -2, -3 when responding to Defense. Greatly reduces skill cycle pressure while triggering trait to disrupt enemy. Key to sustain and prolonged combat.

Weather Burst Build

Playstyle

At the start, use Rain Dance to set weather; after Moisturize buff, use Water Cannon for burst damage; Provoke disrupts enemy rhythm.

Why this set works

Rain Dance activates Rainy Day weather to boost Water-type damage; Moisture provides Magic Attack buff. With dual amplification, Water Cannon output is extremely high. Provoke provides disruption and trait triggering. This build pursues extreme output but lacks sustain, suitable for speed attack playstyle.

Provoke

Why pick this skill

0 Energy Interference: Triggers trait to apply [Noisy] to enemy, limiting enemy actions

Rainfall

Why pick this skill

Changes weather to Rain (8 turns). Water-type skill power increases. Synergizes with own Water-type output to boost damage.

Water Cannon

Why pick this skill

Main DPS, 110 power, scalable Energy reduction, higher damage under Rain.

Moisture

Why pick this skill

Core buff. 0 Energy cost for +190% Magic Attack. Under Rain + buff dual amplification, Water Cannon damage explodes.

Notes
  • Haor Fish is a Water-type special attacker with 76 Magic Attack and 84 Speed (above average), with decent durability. Its trait 【Overtone Series】 applies 【Noise】 to enemies after using status skills (enemy skill energy cost +3), providing strong disruption. Core strategy uses low-energy status skills to trigger the trait for disruption while boosting damage through buffs and weather
  • Key skill analysis: Provoke (0-cost disruption), Moisturize (+190% Magic Attack buff), Rainfall (Rainy weather), Salt Bath (energy cost reduction), Water Cannon (growable output), Spring (energy cost reduction synergy).
  • With a shallow skill pool dominated by Water-type output, strategies center on [disruption + enhancement + damage] or [weather + growth scaling].
