She prepares and fires her arrows with flawless precision and poise.
Let's just hope you aren't on the receiving end of it.



Being a master of the martial art of Kyudo, you can bet she'll never miss her mato.

A video preview for Rio skills will premiere on Tuesday, June 8th, 01:00 AM (PT) only on the official Eternal Return YouTube!

[h2]Auto Attack(s)[/h2]

Bow



[h2]Passive: Hassetsu[/h2]



Rio's normal attacks and skills ignore some of her enemies' defense based on her critical strike chance. Rio's normal attacks can't critically strike but deal increased damage. Her normal attack damage is increased based on her critical strike chance and skill amplification.

[h2]Kyudo Instinct (Q)[/h2]


Passive: Normal attacks or skills grant her a stack of Flow. Upon reaching a certain number of stacks, dealing damage with Rio's next normal attack or skill triggers an effect depending on her current bow.



Hankyu: Rio's movement speed and attack speed is increased for a short time.



Daikyu: Rio's normal attacks deal more damage based on her target's missing HP and slow them.

Toggle: Rio switches between her Hankyu and Daikyu

Daikyu: 1 powerful arrow is fired with each normal attack.

[h2]Hanare (W)[/h2]

[h3]Hankyu[/h3]

[h3]Daikyu[/h3]




Rio fires a single arrow in the targeted direction, dealing damage to enemies hit and to enemies behind the target in a cone shape. Hitting enemies reduces the cooldown of Hanare.

[h2]Soar (E)[/h2]



[h3]Hankyu[/h3]


Rio lunges into the targeted direction, firing 2 arrows at enemies in range and dealing damage. Hitting an enemy reduces the cooldown of Soar.

[h3]Daikyu[/h3]

[h2]Fleeting Soul/Spirit Arrow (R)[/h2]
