Playstyle

Ride Merulina, keep Aquablades spinning, Sea Snare heavies, Riptide clumps. Strength for blade/snare damage; Duration for board and blade uptime; Range for Aquablades.

Passive abilities

Critical Flow: while sliding, Yareli gains secondary crit chance. Sea Snares globules immobilize and amp damage taken. Merulina soaks most incoming hits (or Loyal Merulina follows and auto-snares). Aquablades orbit for slash — Surging Blades throws stacking blades. Riptide vortices pull packs then burst harder per trapped enemy.

Active abilities

  • 1 Sea Snares — Seeking water globules that immobilize and raise damage taken.
  • 2 Merulina — Rideable wave board that absorbs most damage. Loyal Merulina follows and auto-casts Sea Snares instead.
  • 3 Aquablades — Orbiting blades. Surging Blades lets you throw stacking-damage blades (free while on Merulina).
  • 4 Riptide — Pull enemies into a maelstrom, then burst — damage rises per trapped foe.
  • Ride base Merulina (skip Loyal). Keep Aquablades up while surfing.
