Hydrogen Shell is an A.I. Exclusive Active Ability in Sonny (2017).
Details[]
Strikes self 1 time, restoring HP with 400% of the caster's Power. This ability applies the buff Hydrogen Shell to the target. Lastly, it has a starting cooldown of 4 turns, which immediately ticks down on the equipped unit's 1st turn, meaning it's available for use on their 4th turn. After this ability has been used, it enters a cooldown of 6 turns.
Caster Buff[]
Hydrogen Shell: Blocks 80% damage for up to 3 attacks, and heals anyone that attacks this unit.
The -80% damage taken modifier is continuous while this buff is active. When the target of this buff is attacked, it will restore the attacker's HP with 50% of the buff caster's Power. A charge is also consumed. When the target of this buff ends their turn, the duration ticks down. This buff starts with 3 charges and a duration of 5 turns when applied.
As this buff is applied to the caster before they end their turn, it's duration will immediately tick down. It also has no pop-up.

Tactics[]

Alternatively, the player can choose to burst down units with this ability before they're able to cast this ability.
Trivia[]
- This ability's Cast VFX isn't defined in the code. As such it uses the default value for that attribute (Melee).
