Skill

Artistic Ingenuity

Uses Mehrak's mapping ability for offensive purposes, initiating a radial scan that deals AoE Dendro DMG. It will also scan all Dendro Cores in its AoE and cause them to immediately burst.

Mehrak was created through the modification of ancient technology and may have some other functions apart from mapping work...

Burst

Painted Dome

Completely unleashes Mehrak's energy and creates a cubic scanned space, dealing AoE Dendro DMG to all opponents within it, causing all Dendro Cores in its AoE to immediately burst, and granting Kaveh the following enhanced combat abilities for a specific duration:

• Increases Kaveh's Normal, Charged, and Plunging Attack AoE, and converts his attack DMG to Dendro DMG that cannot be overridden.
• All Dendro Cores created by all your own party members through Bloom and Lunar-Bloom reactions will deal additional DMG when they burst.
• Increases Kaveh's resistance to interruption.
  These effects will be canceled once Kaveh leaves the field.

"Every building style includes the architect's unique worldview, and from this angle, one can say that the buildings themselves are coalescences of human memories."

The Art of Budgeting

When Kaveh crafts Landscape, Building, and Courtyard-type Furnishings, he has a 100% chance to refund a portion of the materials used.

Ascension 1

An Architect's Undertaking

When DMG dealt by a Dendro Core (including DMG from Burgeon and Hyperbloom) hits Kaveh, Kaveh will regain HP equal to 300% of his Elemental Mastery. This effect can be triggered once every 0.5s.

Notes

• Kaveh Self Heal triggers on the same frame dendro Bloom DMG is registered. The difference between the DMG and heal is applied to Kaveh.
• Kaveh Self heal only occurs if he takes a hit from Bloom, whether shielded or not. He doesn't heal if he dodges the Bloom. Burst i-frames do not prevent healing.

Ascension 4

A Craftsman's Curious Conceptions

During Painted Dome, after Kaveh's Normal, Charged, or Plunging Attacks hit opponents, his Elemental Mastery will increase by 25. This effect can be triggered once every 0.1s. Max 4 stacks.
This effect will be canceled when Painted Dome's effects end.
