Is Arclight good?

Arclight works as an SP battery for Electric teams. His combo has just a three-second cooldown and fires whenever Shock gets applied or consumed, so a team cycling Shock quickly keeps everyone's SP topped up. He can also spend Shock himself through his skill for a bit of extra damage.

He needs another Shock or Electrification source in the team to get his combo going in the first place, and the damage buff hidden in his skill only shows up every third proc, so it's really a bonus rather than something to build around.

Pairs well with: Ivyenna; Antal.

Strengths

  • Very short combo cooldown that fires on Shock application or consumption
  • Skill can spend Shock for bonus damage

Weaknesses

  • Needs another Shock or Electrification source to get going
  • His damage buff only procs every third trigger, more bonus than core kit

Background

Description

"I am Ekut. Callsign is Arclight. I am not a trained weaver of words, but I wish you well and may you flow like a swollen river, Endfielders."

Arclight is a scabhta of the Fiannæ Circuit.

She is currently partnering with Endfield Industries as a technical consultant.

No one roaming the wildlands could escape the grip of starvation and disasters, no matter how clever or capable they may think themselves to be.

Misfortune struck Arclight hard. The wildlands consumed her entire family, leaving her the only survivor.

However, fortune also smiled upon her when a group of Fiannæ Circuit members found and saved her from the brink of death.

The Fiannæ Circuit accepted Arclight. There, she quickly learned how to survive in a harsh landscape and follow the practice of Kerns from poems to help people out.

Today, she roams the wildlands to teach more souls the way of surviving in the unforgiving world of Talos-II.

Arclight may come across as cold and brusque at first, but the minimalist philosophy underlying her cold demeanor actually proves to be exceptionally effective for surviving in the wildlands.
