Trivia

As a 6★ Ambusher Specialist who specializes in Slow and DPS, Ascalon has a block count of 0, which means she cannot block enemies on her own, innately has reduced aggression, can dodge both Physical and Arts attacks 50% of the time, and her attacks hit all enemies within a range of the surrounding eight tiles with a 1×1 extension in front of her, but with high attack interval and rather high DP cost.

Talents

1. Mortal Interrogation inflicts a debuff on enemies struck by Ascalon's attacks that reduces their MSPD and periodically deals Arts damage for a moderate duration, and the debuffs can be stacked up to three times.
2. Penumbral Image buffs Ascalon's ASPD which is increased further if any of the four adjacent tiles to her is a high ground one.

Skills

1. Pursuit increases the ATK of Ascalon's next attack and causes it to deliver two hits when charged, which can store multiple charges at higher levels.
2. Endowment buffs Ascalon's ATK, reduces the MSPD of ground enemies within her attack range, and inflicts one stack of the Mortal Interrogation debuff onto nearby enemies whenever an enemy within Ascalon's attack range is defeated while active.
   • Unlike many 6-star Operators whose third skill is their go-to skill, Endowment should be Ascalon's go-to skill; it charges very quickly, has a high ATK buff which both increases her own damage and Mortal Interrogation's damage resulting in a higher DPS than Descend, and slows all enemies in range massively, making it overall more powerful than Descend.
3. Descend extends Ascalon's attack range by adding 1×3 extensions to the front and sides, buffs her ATK less than Endowment but also reduces her attack interval, lowers the Physical and Arts accuracy of ground enemies within her attack range, and increases her aggression while active, during which Ascalon also recovers some HP whenever an attack directed against her misses due to lowered accuracy or she dodged it.
   • With Descend, Ascalon becomes a jack-of-all-trades Operator who can both tank ranged attacks effectively and inflict decent damage while also slowing enemies in her range, although it has both a weaker damage and weaker slow than Endowment, and should only be used if the player also requires her to tank attacks or to utilize the expanded range.

Operator Modules

The AMB-X Module, "Hidden Blade", reduces the MSPD of enemies within Ascalon's attack range by 20% in addition to increasing her maximum HP and ATK. Once upgraded, Mortal Interrogation's effects are increased and the debuff's duration is extended.

Base skills

Ascalon's base skills provides additional bonuses while she is assigned to the Control Center.

1. S.W.E.E.P. Supervisor speeds up the currently ongoing skill Specialization training by 5%.
2. Intel Mastermind increases the order acquisition rate of Trading Posts by 7% (which does not stack with similar effects).
