Plunging Attack Fires off a shower of arrows in mid-air before falling and striking the ground, dealing AoE DMG upon impact. When Breakthrough is ready, the bracelet on Yelan's right hand will glow.

	Lingering Lifeline	Elemental Skill
Fires off a Lifeline that allows her to move rapidly, entangling and marking opponents along its path. When this rapid movement ends, the Lifeline will explode, dealing Hydro DMG to the marked opponents based on Yelan's Max HP. Tap Moves a certain distance forward swiftly. Hold Engages in continuous, swift movement, during which Yelan's resistance to interruption is increased. During this time, Yelan can control this rapid movement and end it by using this Skill again. Additionally, each opponent marked by the Lifeline when it explodes grants Yelan a 34% chance to reset her Breakthrough state. If this skill is held, the cooldown does not start until Yelan's rapid movement ends. When this skill hits at least one enemy, it generates 4 Elemental Particles. The skill key/button does not need to remain pressed once the hold version of this skill triggers (takes about 1 second). The Lifeline pulls opponents towards Yelan when it explodes. When Yelan's Breakthrough state is reset by this talent, a visual indicator will appear above her head. When Lingering Lifeline is held, the Elemental Skill icon changes. Yelan is still affected by Movement Speed when this skill is held. When Yelan's Lifeline marks an opponent, being staggered, jumping, sprinting, using a Normal Attack, or pressing the Elemental Skill button again will cause it to explode. Voice-overs for Lingering Lifeline will only play if at least one target is successfully marked.

Will occur each time Yelan's Lifeline explodes and hits opponents. Coordinated Attack DMG follows an Internal Cooldown of 2 seconds/3 hits. Exquisite Throw DMG does not snapshot and will be affected by changes in Yelan's stats after Depth-Clarion Dice is cast. If Lingering Lifeline is used the maximum amount of times during Exquisite Throw, Exquisite Throw can fire up to 17 times at Constellation Level 0, and 18 times at Constellation Level 1. Passive Effects Passive Talent 2, Adapt With Ease: "So long as an Exquisite Throw is in play, your own active character deals 1% more DMG. This increases by a further 3.5% DMG every second.

Constellation Effects Constellation Level 2, Taking All Comers: "When Exquisite Throw conducts a coordinated attack, it will fire an additional water arrow that will deal 14% of Yelan's Max HP as Hydro DMG.

Constellation Level 6, Winner Takes All: "After using Depth-Clarion Dice, Yelan will enter the Mastermind state. In this state, all of Yelan's Normal Attacks will be special Breakthrough Barbs. These Breakthrough Barbs will have similar abilities to normal ones and the DMG dealt will be considered Charged Attack DMG, dealing 156% of a normal Breakthrough Barb's DMG.
