Enemy description

A Sankta who made an enemy of Laterano for the sake of asking a question. A Pathfinder who tread the path of peril for the sake of receiving an answer. He feels neither wrath nor sorrow. He neither curses God, nor beseeches man. Andoain only follows his own path, wherever it may end.

Overview

Although Andoain has somewhat average stats, he makes up for them by having a wide range of versatile abilities that can limit the harm taken by himself and his allies as well as deal massive damage to multiple targets at once:

Ability	Initial CD	Cooldown
Cannot be blocked. Has 5/5 ammo (displayed below the HP meter).	Innate
Consumes 1 ammo in each attack to increase ATK to 150%, causes it to deal an additional instance of of Physical damage equal to 500% ATK against "Gelato Stops", and causes the projectile to ricochet between units within the surrounding 8 tiles to the primary target (including those previously struck if there are no other units available) up to 5 times, prioritizing Gelato Stops. Only used while having at least 1 ammo.	Passive
First Form
Light Unto Sufferers When 50% of maximum HP is lost, Andoain illuminates the area centered on his position shown below after 1.45 seconds, which bestows the following effects to enemies within (does not stack): Reduces Physical and Arts damage taken to 70%. Dodges Physical and Arts attacks 50% of the time. 　　□　　 　□□□　 □□■□□ 　□□□　 　　□	–
Revives over 5 seconds when defeated in the First Form and enters the Second Form.	–
Second Form
Invulnerable for 20 seconds. ATK increased by 20%. Light Unto Sufferers will now be used whenever 25% of maximum HP is lost.	Second Form traits
Ashes to Ashes, Dust to Dust Stops moving and attacking, and "scans" the map vertically from left to right over 10 seconds, marking the first five scanned friendly units including friendly Gelato Stops (prioritizing those closer to the top of the map if multiple units are in the same column); units deployed after the scanline passes through their position will not be retroactively marked. After the scan ends, Andoain fires a shot at every marked target after a wind-up time of 2 seconds which deals Physical damage equal to 200% ATK as well as an additional instance of Physical damage equal to 1000% ATK against Gelato Stops, and fully reloads his ammo after he finishes shooting. Only used in the Second Form if at least one valid target is available.	None	70 sec.
