Nature's Echo has two acquisition methods. The primary method requires raising Keen Senses to Lv. 3 and Forward Slash to Lv. 3, then spending 1 Abyss Artifact to unlock it. Alternatively, Nature's Echo can be learned through the Watch and Learn system by observing it during combat. When time slows and the "Learning in Progress" prompt appears in the top-left of the screen, hold the observation button for several seconds while watching the technique being performed.
Nature's Echo creates an illusion (a phantom clone) that replicates Kliff's attacks, effectively doubling the damage of qualifying strikes. The illusion automatically mirrors the attack that triggered it, adding a second hit at no additional Stamina or Spirit cost. This passive multiplication of damage makes Nature's Echo one of Kliff's strongest Spirit skills for sustained damage output.
The skill itself costs no Spirit or Stamina to trigger once unlocked. The illusion activates automatically whenever Kliff performs an eligible attack. At Level 1, only Forward Slash triggers the echo. Higher levels expand the range of eligible attacks to include Spinning Slash and Stab.
Nature's Echo branches into three progressive upgrades:
Echoing Forward Slash (Lv. 1): When performing a Forward Slash, an illusion automatically copies the attack. This is the base version and provides the largest damage boost since Forward Slash is a frequently used heavy attack.
Echoing Spinning Slash (Lv. 2): When performing a Spinning Slash, an illusion copies the spinning attack. This extends the echo effect to Kliff's primary area-of-effect melee skill.
Echoing Stab (Lv. 3): When performing a charged Stab, an illusion copies the thrust. This adds echo damage to Kliff's highest single-hit damage attack.
Invest in Nature's Echo early in Kliff's Spirit tree. The passive damage multiplication requires no active management and works with attacks you are already using.
Pair Nature's Echo with repeated Forward Slash attacks during boss stagger windows. The echo effectively doubles your damage output during these critical openings.
At Lv. 2, Nature's Echo turns Spinning Slash into a devastating crowd-clearing tool since the echo hits every enemy the original Spinning Slash hits.
Since Nature's Echo triggers automatically and costs nothing, it is always beneficial. There is no reason to delay investing Abyss Artifacts here if you have met the prerequisites.
Combine Nature's Echo with Focus to sustain Spirit regeneration. Spirit regenerates while Focus is active, so you can keep both systems running simultaneously.
At Lv. 3 with Echoing Stab, charged Stab attacks deal double damage. This is one of the highest burst damage combinations in Kliff's toolkit.
Forward Slash: The primary attack that triggers the echo at Lv. 1.
Spinning Slash: Area attack that gains an echo at Lv. 2.
Stab: Charged thrust that gains an echo at Lv. 3.
Keen Senses: Prerequisite skill that must reach Lv. 3.
Focus: Spirit regeneration skill that pairs well with Nature's Echo.

Invest in Nature's Echo early to unlock its full progression chain.
Spirit regenerates while in Focus mode, so pair this skill with Focus for sustained use.
