Skill Details

How It Works

Elemental Smiting Strike imbues Damiane's Smiting Strike with elemental energy for additional elemental damage on top of the base physical hit. This transforms the standard heavy melee strike into an element-charged attack that can exploit enemy weaknesses.

This skill is unlocked at Imbue Element Level 1, making it one of the earliest elemental enhancements available to Damiane. The cost is low, and the elemental type matches Damiane's current attunement.

Tactical Tips

• Since Smiting Strike is already a heavy-hitting attack, adding elemental damage makes it an excellent choice for dealing burst damage to tough enemies.

• Unlock this skill early through Imbue Element Level 1 to start applying elemental damage to Damiane's rotation right away.

• Pair with Elemental Shield Toss for a full elemental loadout across both melee and ranged options.

• The low Spirit cost makes this reliable in extended fights where Spirit management is a concern.

Tips

• Practice using Elemental Smiting Strike against weaker enemies before relying on it in boss fights.

• This skill has low or no resource cost, making it reliable in extended fights.
