Skills
6Energize
PassiveGain +1 Energize whenever either Champion strikes or hits into block with a Light Attack. Each Energize Buff has 0% potency and lasts indefinitely until consumed and while 1 or more Energize Buffs are active gain +70% Combat Power Rate. The effect of Energize is reduced by 50% when used as a Defender. This Combat Power Rate cannot be increased or decreased by outside sources. While +7 Energize Buffs are active: Whenever Ikaris’s Power is reduced for any reason, inflict the Opponent with a burst of 508.08 Energy Damage per Energize Buff. No effect against Mystics. All Special Attacks consume 10 Energize Buffs on hit. Landing a Heavy Attack inflicts the Opponent with Incinerate Debuffs equal to 50% of the Energize Buffs and removes 1 Energize Buff. Dev Notes: Playing around with having up to 10 Energize stacks lets you pick the buff you want and when. Don’t forget having 7+ Energize also is free damage via Energy Burst when you do your Special Attacks or when your power is messed with by different Techs.

Incinerate
PassiveIncinerate will deal 381.06 as Energy Damage over 22 seconds. Incinerate Debuffs also remove Perfect Block Chance and decrease Block Proficiency by 50% while active. Landing a Heavy Attack pauses all Incinerate Debuffs for 8 second(s). Dev Notes: Upkeep, upkeep, upkeep, how close to the sun can you go without falling out of the sky. You can pause and refresh these Incinerates with a Heavy or Special 1.

Energy Backblast
Signature AbilityEvery time an Opponent tries to apply an effect on Ikaris that he is immune to, inflict an Energy Vulnerability Passive, reducing Energy Resistance by 195.65 - 963.21 for 10 second(s). Max 10 stacks Dev Notes: This works on immunity he gains from outside sources, including quest nodes.

Meteor Strike
Special 1Special 1 - Meteor Strike Ikaris channels cosmic energy into his fists, unleashing a barrage of punches into his foes. Inflicts 3 Incinerate Debuffs on each hit. The last hit will remove all Incinerates and apply them all back with full durations. If Ikaris has 10 Energize Buffs, gain a Protection Buff for 30 seconds preventing Ikaris from taking more than 5% of max health from a single hit. Excluded from damage on Special 3. If Ikaris has less than 10 Energize Buffs, gain an Armor Up Buff increasing Armor Rating by 964.29 for 30 seconds. Dev Notes: Pick your Buff for the situation. Armor or Protection, or juggle both. Don’t forget your Synergy can help boost per hit Incinerate counts.

Disintegration Beams
Special 2Special 2 - Disintegration Beams Ikaris fires his devastating disintegration beams, scorching his foes and empowering his attacks. Double all Incinerate Debuffs. If Ikaris has no Incinerate Debuffs on the Opponent, apply 10. If Ikaris has 10 Energize Buffs, gain an Unblockable Buff for 8 seconds on special activation. If Ikaris has less than 10 Energize Buffs, gain 3375 Physical Resistance Buff for 30 seconds. Dev Notes: When do you want to double up? I’ll let you decide. Tip: you will probably end up doing equal uses of Special 1 and Special 2’s before you do your Special 3.
