Trivia

Typhon is a 6★ Besieger Sniper who specializes in DPS. As a Besieger Sniper, Typhon has an unusual range which covers 3×4 tiles ahead of her with 3-tile extensions to the sides from Elite 1 and a minimum range of the frontal tiles (effectively reducing Typhon's range to 3×3 tiles ahead of the minimum range with 2-tile extensions to the sides from Elite 1), targets enemies with the highest weight (in other words, the heaviest enemy) over the others while attacking, and high ATK as well as above-average DP cost.

Talents

1. Sharp as a Beast's Fang causes Typhon's attacks to ignore a portion of the target's DEF in each hit which increases with each attack, but is capped to a limit and will reset if she does not attack for a while.
2. Heavy as the Swamp's Mire causes Typhon to deal more damage when she damages an enemy for the first time in each skill activation and Slows the target for 3 seconds.

Skills

1. Swift Strike γ buffs Typhon's ATK and ASPD while active.
2. Order of the Icefield buffs Typhon's ATK and has her attack two different targets or a single target twice if there are no other targets in each attack with a 40% chance to Stun the target(s) for 1 second while active. Once Order of the Icefield is activated the second time, it becomes permanent.
3. "Eternal Hunt" marks an enemy inside Typhon's range and then has her attack the marked target (and only the marked target, even after they leave Typhon's range) with a barrage of four (five at Specialization levels) arrows that hits random targets around the marked one, each dealing Physical damage equal to a greater portion of Typhon's ATK and Stuns the target for 0.4 seconds, but increases her attack interval, using the ammunition mechanic that lasts for several attacks. Should the marked target leaves the map, the mark lingers on their last position and Typhon will attack enemies that enters its radius.

Operator Module

The SIE-X Module, Ammadikshu, increases Typhon's ATK against enemies with a weight of at least 3 to 1.15× in addition to increasing her maximum HP and ATK. Once upgraded, Sharp as a Beast's Fang's DEF ignore and cap, and reset interval are increased.

Base skills

1. Icefield Navigation increases the clue search rate by 10% while she is assigned to the Reception Room which is further increased by 5% if another Sami Operator is in the Reception Room but increases her morale drain rate by 0.5 per hour.
2. Combat Techniques: Besieger speeds up the skill Specialization training of Snipers by 30% which is increased to 45% if the trainee is a Besieger Sniper while Typhon is assigned as the trainer in the Training Room.

Summary

Despite of the difficulties in using her effectively due to the quirks related to her attacks and skills, Typhon is among the best Besieger Snipers who dedicates herself to dispatch heavyweight enemies with a combination of potent Slows and Stuns, permanent, multi-target attacks with Order of the Icefield, or tracking enemies even outside her range with arrow barrages with "Eternal Hunt".
